“Today we don’t eat, we dine.”

In celebration of Marcel Wanders’ Dressed collection for Italian homewares company, Alessi, Wanders will be unveiling a video installation interpreting the collection this Monday, May 16th at the Alessi SoHo store. From the looks of the preview stills it looks like Marcel and friends are enjoying an elaborately staged banquet on equally elaborate Alessi place settings. We can’t wait to get details on what the chef at LUTE restaurant in the Netherlands made for the occasion. (stay tuned for the answer on Monday when we live-tweet a Q+A with Wanders from twitter.com/core77)

The Dressed collection of silverware, dishware and glassware in stainless steel, porcelain and crystal display Wanders’ signature decorative aesthetic by taking inspiration from baroque opulence and reflecting it in subtle details throughout the collection. See more preview stills from the video installation after the jump.
