Neneh Cherry - Kisses On The Wind 1989

Isn't her outfit just absolutely flawless. A black high waisted tube skirt and a bra top - nothing else. Buffalo Style merged with minimalsim. Graphic and straight-forward.

Veil Skirts

Top Comme des Garçons Fall/Winter 1993
Bottom Givenchy, Richard Nicoll, Damir Doma, Rag & Bone, J.W. Anderson, Richard Chai Spring/Summer 2011

We've been confronted with an armada of veil skirts for the upcoming Spring/Summer season. Please note that I find them wonderful, pleasing and intriguing. But I somehow question their originality. Especially when I compare 1993 Comme des Garçons with 2011 Givenchy. I expected more.

Topman Design Spring/Summer 2011

I fell in love with the Topman boy. We went camping together, roasted marshmallows over an open fire and washed our dirty clothes in a river nearby. Sometimes I wasn't quite sure if he was actually wearing shorts or a skirt.

Best Of Dries van Noten

Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2001 - Spring/Summer 2011

The men's skirt. Neon plastic coats. Furry leopard print. He did it all. And he always did it well. No one can copy a Dries van Noten look. And no one is able to clash and combine contradictory patterns with such an implicitness. The Dries principle is based upon logic and intuition. A self-repetitive mechanism that deserves to be admired.
