POP-UP. This is Antwerp

JudithAnimaux Spéciaux, Driekoningenstraat 20

Although the combination of sophisticated lingerie and mounted animals seems a bit odd, there’s an unexpected and beautiful synergy that meets the eye while visiting Judith van Herck and Jeroen Lemaître’s pop-up store. Jeroen’s bold blue butterflies and metallic beetles mounted in glass domes fit perfectly with Judith’s geometric shaped under garments. As each item gives its own little touch to the shop, they all harmoniously create a sultry and tropical atmosphere.

The shop owners only met each other when they both applied for the Pop up to Date-event. So it’s a lucky coincidence that these outmost different creative souls seem to be a match made in heaven. Perhaps “jungle” would be more adequate, because being surrounded by tropical birds, a crocodile and a luxurious lingerie set it sure does feel like the temperature is rising.
