Holistic Triptych II

Top Pierre Cardin, Suit 1979
Center Theo van Doesburg, Arithmetic Composition 1930
Bottom Vico Magistretti, Kuta Table 1978

A suit, a painting, a lamp. The triangle, the circle, the square. A man could reduce his belongings in life to these three things. And their endless variation/combination/repetition.

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

Horst surely prefers denim in one particular condition: short and ripped. Exclusively for Mahret I went through my archives and selected two of the most beautiful reference images. Fur the full ripped experience click here.

Invulnerability

Jil Sander Spring/Summer 2010

The most elegant dysfunction. Broken, ripped, crinkled. Exploded volume, fluorescent glow, ruined texture. The highest level of felicitous risk taking. Nearly invisible.

Square

Preen Spring/Summer 2010

Welcome to the fashion week terror. We all love horror movies, so do we adore the tension that surrounds the catwalk. Sticky air, a swelling tune, the first steps of skinny gazelles. The breathtaking anxiety when a girl starts to stumble or a garment falls apart. This is the thrill that keeps us alive. Enjoy the first scene of a new sequal with Preen.

Fuzzy

Disa Treutiger Graduate Collection

I'm never tired of accentuated shoulders - even though they look so cozy that I would like to convert them into pillows and fall asleep right away. Fuzzy shoulder pad dreams. The perfect outfit for a rub and hug.

Stop Touching Me

Petar Petrov Fall/Winter 2009

The boxiness continues. And Lindsay Lohan would probably sing: "I'm just a little boxy. I like it how I like it when I like it. And that's how it is. Oh oh oh. Don't tell me no."

A Discourse: The 90s Woman Pt.V

Spon Diogo Spring/Summer 2009

The 90s, an ambiguous decade. There is colour, exaggeration and glam. But there is also sophistication, minimalism and an obsession for pure black shape. Peter Lindbergh and Helmut Newton created images of an independet, androgynous and sexual powerful woman. Wearing severe smoking jackets, a small black dress or a leotard with high heels. The contemporary woman who adores this iconic aproach to female identity wears Spon Diogo.
