Non-Emasculation

When the essence of Kim Kardashian and Nicole Scherzinger is injected into male genes, sexual characteristics become manifest. As a result, the intermediate state of being is replaced by exaggerated virility.

If one thing matters, everything matters. And this one thing might be the most mundane. A fascination for the intimate and somehow absurd. Foot fetish, or, sneaks 'n' sox. As it may be called.

2. Bernhard Willhelm x Showstudio Men In Tights

Do you remember the time? When we fell in love. Do you remember? Men in tights. Men in heels and lingerie. Thighs in mesh and lace. Hem lines and tan lines. In one sentence: Utterly adorable desperate housemen.

Bernhard Willhelm Spring/Summer 2009

Okay, it is what Nina Garcia and Micheal Kors would have called 'costume-y' but it's Bernhard! And he masters men in tights like no other. I mean why not?

Absolutism

Bruce Weber Roberto Bolle: An Athlete in Tights

Another essential addition to any photography/art collection. A beautiful selection and assemblage of photographs, drawings, commentary and further aesthetic references. Unifying everything we want and desire from a Bruce Weber monograph.

En Dehors

There reigns a certain fascination for elitarism and unifrom dress codes in sports. Following my admiration for fencing, I'd like to pay homage to ballet. French intellectualism. Men in tights. The infamous dance belt.

Natascha Stolle Fall/Winter 2009

These tights. Wads of smoke ascending from the ground. Enlacing the leg, seducing the eye, conquering the heart.

Tim Hamilton Fall/Winter 2009

With a gentle whiff of gloominess, Mr. Hamilton creates pieces of concinnity. Fine yet powerful structures, contradictory materials and feisty yet femnine silhouettes. Never missing a poignant edge.

Did he or did he not? If you zoom into the picture, it seems like cute Igor is keeping it all natural. Which somehow creates an interesting texture. Maybe a new look also for girls?

Cycling Tights & Birkenstock

I'm not the biggest fan of PostweilerHauber but the current collection really impressed me. Basic colors, shiny materials and an addiction to geometric shapes make me moan and groan. And the cycling tights are just hot, hehe.

Bernhard Dance Company

After his art project Men In Tights here's Bernhard Willhelms Fall/Winter 08 collection. And surprise, surprise we see a lot of tights. A lot of naked skin. But this time also really nice and wearable clothes.

Style Illustrated Pt.II

The color continues. This time I chose raspberry pink/yellow/mauve grey to create a harmonic interplay. I love the freshness of light yellow merging with dark 'concupiscence' pink. And to speak about the clothes, there they are again: colored tights. And a boy just dressed with a shirt, jumper, undies and one sock. Maybe some of you could send in some similar photos...?

I'm waiting for your mail!

Girls, go for colored tights!

Please! It looks so good.
