DON´T BELIEVE THE HYPE



This is the incredible A-pant from Acne Jeans, that people seems to head over heels with.
I do not get it. It is the most ugly pants in a long time. The shape is awful, and flairs? Come on guys. I know that some think this will be a huge trend, but when all the tacky people are still wearing flairs, how can it be cool? I know I know, never say never, but I am so dissapointed in Acne for making these jeans.
What do you think?

MEN IN TIGHTS






Bernhard Willhelm is showing his aw 08/09 collection as a motion installation extravaganza. It was previewed in Paris last weekend, but it will be not be finished until it is showing in New York next weekend at the start of fashion week. I guess the title may say it all about the collection. Pictures from the invitation and the shoot.

HENRIK VIBSKOV AW 08/09: THE MINT INSTITUTE





I love Mr. Vibskov, but I think some of his design may be too similar to Bernhard Willhelm, even though Vibskov is a lot easier to wear/like. Still, I like the hats, the blankets, the colours and so on. Streetwear in a very fresh way.

FANCY DRESS PARTY





















MR HANKEY THE CHRISTMAS POO



Mr Hankey from Southpark was my costume last night. Quite few (actually nobody guessed it).
I made the costume of a sheet that I dyed brown, white cotton gloves from the pharmacy and a santa claus suit with hat at 70% discount.

NECKLACE BAG



I love how Martin Margiela used small bags as necklace on his MM6 collection. Easy to copy this look, I know I already have several mini bags that can be used to get this look.

NOTE TO MYSELF: MUST TRY TO STRIKE A POSE

LANVIN AW 08/09




Another sharp and tailored collection, but I love the round glasses and handbags can be worn by men too.

- Thursday 12 - 20
- Friday 12 - 20

FIRST SPRING PURCHASE


I tried on several things, but ended up with this rather classic crop sleeved cardigan from Filippa K. I love the shorts arms, the oversized shape and the mixed cotton/merion wool quality. It is actually my first Filippa K-buy in a very very long time.

DIOR HOMME AW 08/09






Van Assche sure like those baggy tailored pants, and it seems that he likes Raf Simons too (like the rest of the designers).

JIL SANDER AW 08/09

This collection just screams of Raf Simons, not that it is a bad thing.
