Laced Up II

1. Sleeveless top Dior Homme
2. Mannequin Jean Paul Gaultier

Another photo booth experiment. While my lower body disappears, the torso becomes a tribute to the year 1990. Hedi Slimane, Jean Paul Gaultier and Horst become one. At least for this very moment.

Laced Up

1. Gucci Spring/Summer 1996
2. Carlos Diez Spring/Summer 2012

Once you wear tribal, taking the next step does only seem logical. Now I want a laced front top. Just as proclaimed by the male shopping mall discount mainstream. Any suggestions?

Desired #12

Comme des Garçons A New Perfume

Industrial glue, brown scotch tape, aldehydes, safraleine, hawthorns, lilac, flower oxides, musk and styrax. I need it. I need it now. A belated addition to my Christmas wishlist.

The Craft III

1. Balenciaga Fall/Winter 2010
2. Jamie Hawkesworth for Hero Magazine
3. Bernhard Willhelm Spring/Summer 2012
4. Bruno Staub for i-D Magazine
5. Dior Spring/Summer 2001
6. D&G Fall/Winter 2011

From graffiti (part I) to typography (part II) to text collages. The assemblage of the recycled remains of our culture. Fragmented quotes, multiplied deranged messages. Copy and paste till death will tear us apart.

L'Imitation

Trompe l'œil shoes Comme des Garçons
Snakeskin belt Comme des Garçons Homme Plus
Fake leather top Topman

Almost every piece of Comme des Garçons is a theoretical construct, an ironic construct and a deconstructed construct. The fake, the camp and the comical. For you, I'll paint my nails red.

Splatter

Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2002

Hedi Slimane ten years ago. So modern still. And so desirable again. Everything I need is a white sleeveless shirt and a pair of black skinny trousers. And this is all. Always forever.

The Craft II

1. Maison Martin Margiela
2. Raf Simons
3. Robert Mapplethorpe
4. Comme des Garçons backstage

From graffiti to typography. The writings on the wall. White paint on black cloth. Explicit depictions of the purpose of a garment. Time to say something, time to answer, time to comment.
