Hope Spring/Summer 2010

One of my current obsessions is the aim to become 'the person with the waistcoat'. Therefore I am always looking for extraordinary pieces, preferably resembling the ones David from BH90210 would wear.

Excoriation

Cheap Monday Spring/Summer 2010

This is total crap, yes. Just take a pair of scissors and some tape if you can't wait another season. Destroy and repair. Admittedly, I like revealing holes in garments.

Concentration Deficit

The Local Firm Spring/Summer 2010

Loose knit, high gloss pants and jackets, some strap bondage and as a TLF tradition: urban tribe symbolism. Nothing new, nothing bad. But I am missing a little bit of edge.

Insanity

Romain Kremer Spring/Summer 2010

As promised, the one who beats them all. It's totally crazy, and I am totally in love with it. Mini dresses that barely hide the most precious parts of the man and cropped tops that go borderline and conquer the face. Mad.

A Break Is Not A Break

I can't stop posting fashion week looks. I just can't. Milan and Paris are over, Stockholm has begun. And still there are things I haven't shown you yet. Things that will outstrip it all. You will see... yes, this is a threat.

Castration

Damir Doma Spring/Summer 2010

Finally, the boy's dress. And it doesn't appear so foreign to me. Quite appropriate, almost overdue. Fine structures of organza caressing the man's knee. Sounds awkward, looks unagitated.

Appendix

Raf Simons Spring/Summer 2010

Always been a connoisseur of the Raf aesthetics although I have to admit of not finding access to his latest creations. The details and snake symbolism seem reasoned but leave me with venomous indifference.

Trauma

Ann Demeulemeester Spring/Summer 2010

Ok, so now I have to get personal: When I was a little boy, I draw my wedding outfit. And well, this is exactly what Ann designed for Spring/Summer 2010. The chain harness wasn't included in my sketches back in the days but it's a nice addition, non?
/HORST

P.S.: And finally a collection that looks like summer.

Graze

Miharayasuhiro Spring/Summer 2010

I have a thing for the ripped and shredded. And I had a hard time picking my two favourite looks. Adorable waistcoat/shirt variations, a black sequin shirt, silver shorts, rakish coats.

Dermatology

Tim Hamilton Spring/Summer 2010

Moving structures creating an undefinable whole. Gathered, wrinkled and draped. Thin layers of transparency protecting the human skin. Underneath and above.

Immunity

Givenchy Spring/Summer 2010

It's Givenchy. What can I say. There is nothing bad about it, even if I am not thrilled I won't find anything to criticise. It's likeable, charming, well done.

Pigmentary Abnormality

Blaak Spring/Summer 2010

Ladies in leather jackets. Wearing dotted blouses and biker waistcoats. The raw and the delicate. Aggressive gender transitions.

Insomnia

Undercover Spring/Summer 2010

As I love being in my bed and could imagine organizing my whole life from there, these sleepwear reminiscent looks caught my dreamy attention. Fashionable snoozing.

Beautymark

Dries van Noten Spring/Summer 2010

It is a beautiful collection. Dries van Noten from head to toe. Pure and genuine. Exquisit colour combinations, a sensual yet intelligent calculated pattern fight.

Elongation

Hugo Spring/Summer 2010

I am surprisingly surprised. Long waistcoats, yes please. Pleated trousers, I take a pair. Extremely see-through shirts in light blue and white, I like.

Testicular

Calvin Klein Spring/Summer 2010

Cycling shorts. Cycling shorts. One needs to repeat it to become fully aware of what this means. Besides that, the collection seems to be the more wearable adaption of Givenchy 2009.

Surgery

Missoni Spring/Summer 2010

In every father's wardrobe you might find a patchwork sweater. If you are lucky. It brings this little bit of coziness to every outfit. And somehow appears very German. In one word: cuddle-appeal.

Vacuum

Prada Spring/Summer 2010

I don't know what to say. I am speechless. This is so boring. And I already picked the most exciting looks. Okay, there is this juxtaposition of layered textures and mesh, but spring will be a cheap season, no Prada shopping.

Steak

Roberto Cavalli Spring/Summer 2010

Time for some naked skin, it's been a while. And these trousers are quite nice, adding this 'I am undressing and opening my overall'-feel. Why not.

Abdominal Incision

Giuliano Fujiwara Spring/Summer 2010

Just one thing; These aviator helmets are super cute. And the half-split shirt has to be mine! Mine! Mine!

Impregnation

Neil Barrett Spring/Summer 2010

I have a Miuccia Prada meets Raf Simons moment. Very reminiscent of their respective Fall/Winter 09 collections translated into Spring/Summer. The question is: Is this good or bad?

Hay Fever

Frankie Morello Spring/Summer 2010

Stable-lads with harness and horsewhip. Nice try. Hit me baby one more time.

Chlorine

Jil Sander Spring/Summer 2010

So we are all gonna wear white? Right? I always disliked vests worn underneath a sheer shirt, but well, times change. And as always it all depends on who's wearing it.

Antibiotics

Costume National Spring/Summer 2010

As I am sick in bed while craftsmen renovate my bathroom, I decided to devote myself completely to Gossip Girl and Men's Fashion Week. How miserable is that? Beautifully miserable.

Red Light

Maj Anja Turesson London College of Fashion BA Womenswear 2009

Literally interweaving Swedish handicraft tradition with futuristic textiles and severe cuts. Exaggerating form and structure, highlighted by intense colour and shine.
