Vanilla Coating

Patrik Ervell Fall/Winter 2010

Caramelised sugar, vanilla cream and a silver spoon. This collection feels a bit like crème brûlée. Patrik Ervell succeeds in defining the tastful, timeless and elegant.

Time Continuum

Yves Saint Laurent Spring/Summer 2008

As a continuous principle, my love for collections grows in retrospect. In my eyes, Spring/Summer 2008 was a notably strong season. Stefano Pilati's vision is of timeless relevance and manifest in today's evolution in menswear. An aesthetic seemingly appreciated and consequently continued by Lucas Ossendrijver for Lanvin.

Symmetry

Josh Goot Fall/Winter 2009

Beauty with ease. Two colours, two axes. Strict blocks in black and nude that dissolve into sprinkled patterns. Silence turns into turbulence. A quiet riot of elegance.

Gustav

Best dressed with bow tie. Gustav is the Swedish embodiment of a nouvelle vague of sexiness, smartness and maleness. Adorable from head to toe every detail expresses sovereignty, significance and well-thoughtness.

Brownie

Thom Browne Spring/Summer 2008

I love him for his worship of suits with shorts, of cropped trousers and knee-high socks, of smart male sexiness.

I Don't Hate You For Now, Not Yet At Least!

Tillmann Lauterbach Fall/Winter 2008

The best thing in fashion is that you can fall in love again and again. Just when you thought you've found the best and most wearable collection, just when you were on your way to buy the engagement rings, there's a new beauty. That's exactly what happend to me when I discovered the new collection of Tillmann Lauterbach.
