Kastenflimmern II

Comme des Garçons Shirt Spring/Summer 2012

As implicated before, I am more and more falling in love with the Comme des Garçons op-art pattern and typography mix and mash mental(sickness)ity. Therefore, I recently purchased a handwriting logo type shirt and a black hooded T-shirt. Photo booth desired?

Since I remain indifferent towards the use of colour in my own wardrobe, a pattern approach might be the most logical, complex and visually appropriate equivalent. Preferably op-art in black and white. Comme please.

Pattern Issues

1. Raf Simons Spring/Summer 2012

2. Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2008



Indeed, I felt a bit let down by the latest Raf Simons proposal. His design signature got transferred into the Jil Sander brand. And vice versa. This exchange may be a strategically intelligent thing to do. As long as it presents a relevant addition itself.

Textured People Pt.II

It could be me but it’s not. One could think waistcoats and checkered shirts are over but I say why should they? It looks good. Just wait a bit until all fashion followers have disappeared. And: Please combine this look with a moustache!

Check out the whole collection - I could only hardly decide which looks to pick. Especially the woman's line is multifaceted and very colorful.

Rene Gurskov Fall/Winter 2008

Rene Gurskov - a man to adore. His designs as subtle and smart as one longs for. His vision of male beauty and identity fits 1:1 to my self-conception. Concepts of the 'ideal me'. Just look at the leather waistcoat and the tartan scarf, allowing intelligent layering with well dosed 90s references. Lynn & Horst are more then content.

The Mint Institute

Uahhhhh! Finally one of our L&H favorites presented his brandnew collection. And there is no doubt: Henrik Vibskov does everything right. The thrillingly perfect balance between strangeness and wearability. An icon for its on.

Bea Auftour, the German Anna Wintour, mentioned: "Was sind das für Pimmel in denen die da gehen? Und was haben die vor den Augen? Einen Bart?!" (translation on request)

HorSTYLE Lesson No4

This fall it's all about purity.
For an urban look with a more casual and naturel twist, please follow the rules:
1. Add a little color - red gives your style warmth.
2. Cite nature - play with details e.g. feather accessories.
3. Feel luxury - there's nothing better than wool, cashmere and leather.

We call it New Naturban. Enjoy our fine selection!
