2009

Maison Martin Margiela Spring/Summer 2009

The end of a decade. The end of an era. A phantom finally disappears.

2008

Yves Saint Laurent Fall/Winter 2008

Stefano Pilati's severe vision of feminity. Translated via sheerness, volume and masculine references. Subtly, almost inwardly referring to the decade's dichotomy of gender definitions.

2007

Prada Fall/Winter 2007

Developing undeniable strength and inevitable impact during the second half of the decade, Prada re-invents fashion's relevance and becomes cultural heritage. An iconic pioneer of its time.

2006

Gaspard Yurkievich Spring/Summer 2006

2000 - 2009 is the era of homo-eroticism. The fetish of leather, bondage and short shorts. The man remaining an object of lust. Dressed and undressed.

2004

Preen Spring/Summer 2004

Nudity and sexualization. The revealing of male and female attributes. The strip. Under- as outerwear. Suspenders, tights and bras. Yes, the double-zero decade was sensual.

2003

Helmut Lang Fall/Winter 2003

2003 and one designer should not be missing: Helmut Lang. His strap-cutout-reverse scenarios have conquered my heart and left me with the insatiable lust to compile a wardrobe of iconic Helmut pieces.

2001

Yohji Yamamoto Fall/Winter 2001

After endless hours of archive research and maltreated hands, I do feel a bit dizzy but I also decided about the signature look for 2001: Distorted asymmetry by Yohji Yamamoto.

2000

Boudicca Fall/Winter 2000

I somehow like the idea of decade reviews. I honestly do think the noughties have the potential to stand out against the nineties. Although I am aware that this thesis is facing strongest disagreement. But let me prove to you. Starting with the look of 2000: Boudicca.

I'd like to wear the first look today. The problem: I don't have the clothes.

Faded Shades

Proenza Schouler Spring/Summer 2010

Best hair on a New York runway presentation goes to Anastasija Kondratjeva for Proenza Schouler. Unfortunately, this look only works in a high-fashion context. Otherwise it's an enormous task to pull it off. Who will do me the favour?

I really fancy this old school, Laura Ashley meets the Netherlands, all-over print. Styled to perfection with chest hair respectively kitten mask and nice plateau heels.

Fantasy

I could repeat myself and tell you what I love about these two looks, but I guess the pictures speak for themselves. Two beautiful archetypes of the L&H aesthetics catalogue.

Frühling

The poor and sad version of Givenchy Spring/Summer 09. White see-through shirt, cropped jacket, high-waisted chinos, longjohns underneath, gladiator sandals, and platinum blonde hair. This is it.
/HORST

No Smoke

Women wear suits, best with wide, floating, high waisted trousers and a cropped jacket. The hair sleek and combed back. A white shirt, severe look. Give it to me.

The Softer The Touch

Kamishima Chinami Spring/Summer 2009

I am a declared fan of bodysuits of any kind. Looking at this look, I instantly feel dragged to a pool party, surrounded by pretty models, but flirting and drinking champagne with the pool boy, haha.

Hand Brooch

Henry Holland is a bit overdosin' and I am not his biggest fan, but I truly love this outfit. Especially the sandals. I love sandals and those are the prettiest I've seen so far. Anyone knows the label? And one more little quiz for you: whose hand is on his shoulders? It's quite easy to guess...

Tokyo 12

Japan Fashion Week in a nutshell. The best and the ugliest, the provocative and the boring. Brought to you by adorable Horst, haha. Enjoy and tell me what you think.

Frills & Tulle

Paule Ka Spring/Summer 2008

This is definitely a dress. Maybe I just like it because of the wonderful model. Her pose, her expression and at least her hair style make me wow.

Head To Toe

Marsu Homme Spring/Summer 2008

For men this summer is all about rolled up trousers, tartan shirts and fine leather shoes with or without knee-high socks. Swedish guys already show how it looks best. Now the German men are asked to do it even better!
