Case of Recurrence II

Givenchy Fall/Winter 2012

Oh wait, the studded shirt has already come back. Resurrected by the hands of Riccardo Tisci. Enhanced, enriched and enlarged by the embellished Minotaur nose ring. Anyways, I still want the Prada!

Case of Recurrence

Prada Fall/Winter 2009

The ways of desire are eratically irrational. Suddenly you are confronted with the wishful thought of owning the studded shirt from Prada Fall/Winter 2009. But maybe there is someone who has it and is over it?

Manipulation

Asger Juel Larsen Spring/Summer 2011

Protective garments that reflect the intensity and bravery of craftsmanship. Intense hues of red and orange that evoke the notion of bursting fire. Cropped and sleeveless tops that expose the wearer's masculinity, strength and sex. Shiny, crispy and studded.

Presentation and live installation from today at Machine A, London.

Déja Vu

Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2006

Existence is a lie. Everything has been before. And will be repeated in future. Where Miu Miu began 2006, Prada continued 2009. And as always, the beginning is more beautiful than the end.

Attached II

Helmut Lang Spring/Summer 2004

Just discovered. Helmut Lang's collection for SS04 was not only superb, it also contained a button-studded waistcoat. Besides cut-out tank tops and metal tip boots. Now little Horsti is even more convinced of his new waistcoat.

Pretty Women

The Cassette Society Spring/Summer 2010

I love the 90s prostitute chic: short skirts, tiny or see-through tops. Some ripped denim, some sparkle, some washed-out black. And I bet these girls sing along to Prince on their Walkmans while taking a nice foam bath.

This is for everyone who appreciates the pulchritude of a group of three. Threeways are the best way to go. And The Dreamers is the best theme related movie to watch.

Denim Iterations

William Rast Fall/Winter 2009

Very reminiscent of The Local Firm a season ago. But still, I like it. Light denim mixed with studded jackets, leather and lace. It's one of these looks you can pull off easily and feel relaxed and a bit trashy.

Reversed Expectations

Roberto Cavalli Fall/Winter 2009

A little surprise: I quite like Cavalli. In fact, it was kind of a surprise what Roberto Cavalli sent on the runway. Sleek and deliberately gothic-esque. Craving for a modern and highly celebrated dark undertone. A tendency that finally reached Italian glam kitsch.

Romain Kremer Once again to another level.


Thierry Mugler Say yes to BDSM.


Givenchy WTF I love it.


Blaak I wanna be him.

The master of the sausage has spoken.

A Letter To NKOTB

Please old daddies dress like you did when you were new kiddies. It's so easy. Just listen to Horst and follow these rules.


1. Dungarees and nothing else


2. Studded leather jacket


3. Ripped jeans, loafers and white tennis socks


4. Silly allover prints


5. American iconography


6. Or just topless
