Sobriety



Marni Fall/Winter 2011 vs. Man Ray Seguidilla 1919

After seeing run over animals in the latest Roberto Cavalli collection and suffering Vodka hangover, my mind seeks and finds calmness in a subtle composition. And now I want these shoes.

3 Days Left...




Three days left until the new Lynn & Horst contest will be revealed. To get mentally and physically prepared, we recommend to have a look at our Wet T Contest. And as we do like word-of-mouth, please spread the word.

Kiss







J.W. Anderson Fall/Winter 2011

This collection was made to be loved by me. And we all'll have to wrap ourselves in fluffy knitwear. Caressing our New Bohemian tip-to-toe paisley uniform. Completed by a contrasting rubber band cummerbund.

Citrus Sinensis II























1. Orangina posters by Bernard Villemot, 1972-1986
2. Prada Spring/Summer 2011 campaign

Last night's orange-themed research delivered a striking visual resemblance of Tropician heat. Or shall I say: a blood orange relationship. And blood orange juice is thicker than water. As is commonly known.

Serving Fish?




Christopher Kane Fall/Winter 2011

Is that gel pads? Yes it is! Reworked in the most delicate sci-fi mermaid manner. When looking back at London Fashion Week so far, it is no wonder Mister Kane is hyped. And deservedly so.

The Local Firm Fall/Winter 2011

Ever wondered what fetish Horst would pick up next? Well, because it's Sunday I will do you the favour and reveal the unrivalled: Aprons. Too sexy for the kitchen. Seriously. Indeed.

On Display



1. Hans Bellmer, La Toupie
2. Wilhelm Freddie, Le Bureau de Zola

After being at a surrealist objects exhibition, the task for the weekend is as follows: Find random objects. Glue them together. Paint them white. Maybe I will succeed, maybe I won't.

Fox Tales






Jeremy Scott Fall/Winter 2011 vs. Prada Spring/Summer 2011

When the idea of pop is completely understood. When references are sucked in, chewed up and spit out again. When copying is allowed. Then, we don't have another scandal, we just witness a postmodern quote.

New Brunswick New York





Artworks Hunt Slonem
Collection Tim Hamilton Fall/Winter 2011

While mentally preparing for my post-fifties career-turn as a surrealist painter, the accompanying clothes keep knocking on the studio door. Ready to experiment with latex and acryl.
