Philippe Starck Gets His Own Figure in Parisian Wax Museum

Except for maybe getting cast on his reality show, one would find it difficult to get up close and personal with Philippe Starck. Not just because he’s famous and always busy, but we imagine he’s a bit hyperactive, jumping from place to place, never spending much time in one set position. But now all your prayers have been answered (assuming all of them had to do with Philippe Starck), with the news that the Parisian wax museum, the Musee Grevin, has commissioned a wax statue of Starck, which will go on display in the middle of this month, showing the designer leaning upon one of his famous Louis Ghost chairs. It’s the first time a designer has been forged in wax at the museum (and given the perfectionism inherent in the profession, we can imagine it might be a little while before another one is made — unless of course Jonathan Ive gets interested).
