I was eagerly anticipating Josephus Thimister’s offerings for Spring, after falling for his FW collection of twisted shrouded greyscaled silhouettes. What was presented for SS12 was a vision of both strength and ephemeral deterioration. Thick unraveling open-knit ribbon sweaters,  suits of both asymmetry and exaggerated volume rendered in undyed linen, semi-translucent pleated dresses reminiscent of the disintegrating sculptures of Eva Hesse. The collection was bound by leather holsters, and belts so wide they almost became armor. For each aspect of lightness there was an equal balance of power.

Just received these very nice shot of Boris’ show! Thank you Nabil Azadi for the images and JayJay for the connection!

each season, Paris menswear FW attendees wonder, “what the hell will Adam Kimmel’s presentation look like this time?”. f/w 2011–2012 was something between Twin Peaks, My Own Private Idaho and The Brown Bunny. With guest participation of Oscar Tuazon.

and here is something that has nothing to do with Adam Kimmel. Only Oscar Tuazon

OK, as I had decided to not publish the images I had made during fashion week directly I should have waited until the clothes hit the stores and then publish. Not now that the summer is beginning init?. What about I just re-publish then? Who cares. Another one I particularly liked: Juun J. (and a pretty nice tattoo on an attendee’s hand)

Get your consumerism on y’all.

Posting, posting, posting. Loving, loving, loving.

As I was saying, I start posting the photos I took during last Men’s fashion week in Paris. Here is Mugler, Backstage. I didn’t see the show but I heard it was good. ;)

During last Men’s fashion week F/W 2011-2012, it got so hectic I didn’t come around posting all the photos I tool. Then when I came back I thought it was too late, I’d rather wait a bit. So here are the images. First of all Damir Doma. One of ma favourite of the season! (all photos ©Maxime Büchi)
