Innuendo

Glasses Giorgio Armani
Vest Whyred
Waistcoat Acne
Trousers Carin Wester

Somehow swayed by previous Yves Saint Laurent collections, I took inspiration across the seasons and matched voluminous trousers with a fitted vest that, once put together, evoked the look of a jumpsuit. At least I imagined so.

Horst Outtakes

Horst for De:Bug #142

Horst continues in establishing photo booth in the contemporary mindset. He is the body, the gardener, the photographer, the stylist, the hair and make-up artist. The unification of everything you desire. The modern uróboros. Enjoy his latest spring story.

Thieves and Liars

Turtleneck Raf Simons
Trousers Carin Wester
Cap MTWTFSS

I'm on the mission to re-establish the turtleneck. I find it highly attractive yet intellectual. A look that instantly creates the deep inner desire to break into a museum and steal a diamond or any other precious, rare and much sought-after art piece.

"Looking back on where we first met
I cannot escape
And I cannot forget
Baby you're the one
You still turn me on
You can make me hole again"

Unforgivable Errors

STHLM Fashion Week is always guarantor for the best scandinavian fashion design. But this year, everything was different. There was good stuff, indeed, but there was also crap! Here's the best of the worst:


Enormous crocodile leather shoes Acne


Amazon with fat thighs Agunandagirl


Lingerie suspenders Carin Wester


Attempt of a dirndl Minimarket


Ladybird knit Minimarket


Oversized praline Evelina Bratell


Seen a million times before Tiger of Sweden

Conclusion: Please don't confuse fashion with carneval.

HorSTYLE Lesson No10

The gladiator theme is so worn out. Everyone talked about it. It's more than yesterday. It's the day before yesterday! And that's why Horst needs to milk it as intense as possible...

Picture Modedorf

Women wear those frequently discussed gladiator sandals preferably with socks! Combine it with a minimalistic dress and a short jacket with references to a suit of armour.


Sandals Carin Wester
Dress Surface to Air
Jacket Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair
Necklace Bless Cable Jewellery
Socks American Apparel
False Eyelashes Eyemimo

Guys pull it off with shorts and a long nylon parka. Those of us who are keen and tough enough also wear a cropped top and an oversized back pack filled with various weapons!

Carin's Imagery

Not only the collections but the whole visual communication of our beloved Carin Wester makes me sigh over and over again. So here's a preview of the current Spring/Summer 2008 lookbook. So sensual!


Soft colors, nice gradients and unusual compositions create an authentic polaroid charme. Can I have the print version, please???

The use of

Pieces of geometry make me gasp over and over again. When fashion lookbooks combine artificial gestures with hard forms it's pure satisfaction for me and my fashionmatic brain...

Declaration of love

For those of you who have followed the fashion journey of Lynn & Horst so far, it's maybe nothing new that we like the 90s. And you may have recognized that we adore light washed jeans, a subtle and intelligent look with a little touch of eurotrash. And we love Scandinavian fashion for its clean shapes and sensibility for urban zeitgeist. So we recommend today: Carin Wester.
