Post Paris XIII

A false encyclopaedic guide to the menswear collections, presenting:
Juun J. Fall/Winter 2012

1. Björk Homogenic 1997
2. Eiko Ishioka Faye Dunaway for Parco
3. Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2007

Following the visual path of the cryptic 'ikon', the geometric shape of the triangle reveals itself as a remarkable similarity. Collar, bow and cleavage depict a deep plunging V that recurs in a white shirt, layered underneath the referential print.

Encore une fois: A first glimpse and blurry view onto the exhilarating adventures of Horst in Paris. Captured with the worst of all photographic devices. Crispy documents that will later be followed by selected reviews.

Token Of Esteem

Scarf Juun J.
Jacket Vintage
Sweater Helmut Lang

This scarf braved the elements and a merciless winter. Saturated with my favourite scent it remorselessly fought against minus degrees. As the warmer days arise, this wonderful Juun J. weapon has to be honoured with a photo booth homage.

Juun J. Fall/Winter 2010

Not only showed Juun J. a proper winter collection, the pieces also persuaded thought-out complexity and wearability. The various scarf interpretations created a feminine counterpart to heavy unzippable leather jackets and evoked a 2010 Jüngling version of Grace Jones. My personal favourite though remained a grey deconstructed wool coat.

Le 21 Jeudi

I don't wanna hold back my incredibly sharp Blackberry images, so here are first impressions from Paris Fashion Week. The prettiest models with blue highlights and portable radios at Dries van Noten. Wooden stick sculptures and men in kilts at Henrik Vibskov. Suicidal goth elves in soft leather gear at Julius. Caressing scarf symbiosis at Juun J. Asymmetrically padded bell-bottom suits at Gaspard Yurkievich. And bloody boxer iconography at Jean Paul Gaultier. A detailed commentary will follow soon.

High Waisted Men

Yeah! Pictures of the new collection of Juun J. are out! We all love him for his redefinition of the male silhouette. And you may not believe it but I could no longer stand the temptation - I bought a pair of high waisted trousers! Black, pleated and with cropped leg. It looks really good even that I was very skeptical. So guys, try it out!
