Men re-formed by stark protective structures. The invention of transparent leather. Saberi strives for the unseen material and consctruction that for themselves make his vision visible.

Denomination

Gabriel Stunz Spring/Summer 2011

Although the collection's title 'Gakona' refers to a small village in the mountains of Alaska, its sound and final outcome does evoke a notion of Japanese tradition. Paired with German severity and craftsmanship, it results in the emphasis of two elements, two sides, the elusiveness of belt and scarf.

Second Skin

Boris Bidjan Saberi Spring/Summer 2011

Thin layers of leather. Nude and transparent. Hand-moldered, waxed and washed-out. Emphasizing the principles of existence. Garments that reflect traces of human action. Clothes that imply the wearer's devoted past.

Carving Board

Maison Martin Margiela Spring/Summer 2011

A reinforced laminate waistcoat. An example of artisanal craftsmanship. Clear evidence and perfect proof for the MMM ethos: redefinition of materials and calculated misappropriation.
