Sehnsucht

Top David Slijper for New York Style Magazine
Bottom Blank Spring/Summer 2010 Lookbook

Lately, I feel highly attracted to Tuareg/nomad inspired desert suits. Wide trousers, long linen shirts, a lot of white, crispy structures and sheerness. Sandals and sand. Pleats and dunes.

Via Fashionisto

Profanity

Alexander Wang Fall/Winter 2010

Just 5 minutes later. Life stream screen shots and my BBM commentary: Velvet. Bra cutouts. Black. Backpacks. Quite Prada-ish. Sunglasses worn over hair on sides. Styling is excellent. Seriously. Silver pearls in narrow geometric lines. Really good I have to admit.

Stages Of Development

Hussein Chalayan Fall/Winter 2008

An intricately draped jumpsuit dissolving into a voluminous dress until it becomes a super flat, almost square shape. Working as the plain canvas for an antique vanitas motif.

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.

Floral Drape Fight

Moschino Spring/Summer 2010 vs. Frida Kahlo

Synapses create beautiful image layers in my mind's eye. And in this case, the similarities are surreal.

Fall/Winter 2005

Inspired by Mahret, I felt the urgent need to dive into the Marios Schwab universe to find the most beautiful pearls. Bondage, geometry, draping, metal, fluorescent shine. Super constructed feminity.
