5. GFAJ-1 bacteria

Alien microorganisms that constitute themselves of arsenic. I've always been fascinated by two things: dinosaurs and the space. Consequently I am thrilled by the latest NASA discovery. Another indicator for the fact that Alien Fashion might be outermost relevant very soon.

Rearmamentum

John Galliano Spring/Summer 2008

As a matter of fact, middle-aged Germans love to dress in matching outdoor clothes when travelling. John Galliano, me, myself and I strongly recommend to join this clothing codex. Utility vests for survival. And tribal tattoos, please.

Collection Prada Fall/Winter 2006

Miucca Prada's zebra fur helmet promises a soft and intimate embrace. The allegory for security and protection. A superelevated construct that uses irony and surrealism as its shield.

Riposte

Fencing. I'm overzealous about the attitude, the aesthetics, the fashion. Ballet-like movements, athletes in white body-concious suits, wire net protection helmets. It's raw, it's sensual and it creates crispy, mulitplied images of pace in my mind.

Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2006

Fall/Winter 2006 undeniably was the season of the kitten. I've been asked where my animalistic fascination derives from. It's the dichotomy of tackiness and timelessness.

Julian James Smith Spring/Summer 2010 vs. Arrow signs

Safety first. Equipped with a shiny midnight blue helmet and guided by reflecting direction arrows nothing can go wrong. Right?
