Techno Goth

Julius Fall/Winter 2011

There assuredly is the necessity to analyse the re-emerging techno phenomenon. The most interesting part about its latest deployment is the blending with contrary genres. Does the new New Romantic listen to hardcore?

Wahre Liebe

Hernández Cornet Fall/Winter 2011 vs. Martin Creed

Loving the cut-through silver belts. Loving the mint green plastic dress. If I were a woman, I'd take one in every colour. And I would so wear a silver spoon bracelet with it. L'objet trouvé.

Coronation

Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2005 & Helmut Lang backstage by Jürgen Teller

Germany has a new king. It might only be relevant for a confined target group but I'd like to admit the joyous consumption of a cannibalistic product known as trash TV known as Jungle Camp.

Wiener Werkstätte

Top Flower table, Josef Hoffmann (1905)
Bottom Cutlery set, Josef Hoffmann (1903-1904)

Hundred years have passend. We've been so close to perfection. Cultural heights. Forgotten. Artistic and sexual freedom, tolerance, brutality in thoughts, radical sensuality.

Chained Crystal

Brooch Maison Martin Margiela

Christmas shopping for myself. Gracing myself. Treating myself. Diamond's are a boy's best friend.

Medusa: Prequel

1. Versace campaign, 1990s
2. Head of Medusa, Peter Paul Rubens 1618

The Medusa head as an iconographic legend of both ancient and modern history. A supernatural, crude and mesmerizing symbol associated with immortal myth and contemporary consumerism.

The Omen I

Tim Soar Fall/Winter 2010

Tempted by the subtle touch of blue. Dark on velvet, electric on hair. Somehow artificial, fake and wrong. But yeah, sometimes I do feel the desire to become a creature of alien-esque appeal.

Everything But The Girl

Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2011

Boxy jackets with stylised peacock feathers and silk dresses with white swan prints. It is Miu Miu. It is complex and willing to take risks. It is crazy in a good way. Miuccia Prada is the best womenswear designer. Full stop.

Spurenelemente

Painted love. Metallic skin. Phallic pyramid. We belong together.

Alienesque II

Photos Dazed & Confused, Unknown

Blue-haired and green-skinned. As human beauty allown does not fulfill our contemporary needs, the foreign and artificial conquers our heart. The fake and surreal is what we are longing for. A fantasy of self-deception.
