Perplexions

A false encyclopaedic guide to fashion history, presenting:
Alexander van Slobbe Spring/Summer 1999








1. Céline Fall/Winter 2011
2. Raf Simons Spring/Summer 2012
3. Darren Coffield 'Episodical' 2010

A boyish face. Sleek, wet hair groomed into a perfectly gentle, curly wave. A sleeveless vest. Bare arms uncovering the shadows of muscular anatomy. A photo-realistic print. This boy is carrying wood.

Would Could



1. Hyllie Water Tower, Sweden
2. 1931 Water Tower, Zecc Architects, The Netherlands

Unfortunate in finding a moderate living space. Repeatedly confronted with identically renovated, mass-market compliant apartments. While only yearning for a pure, strictly functional space.

Photos Petrovsky & Ramone

I feel like cleaning the windows. The breeze of fresh air. The sun in your face. The smell of fresh glass cleaner. Maybe naked.

Constructed Landscapes




Photos Maurice Scheltens

This is pure beauty. Maurice Scheltens is ingenious. A subtle observer and creator of stunning sceneries. Always on the edge to chic trashiness. No matter what material he works with, his objects transform into breathing, artificial beings.

Mylittleponyism





Photos Wyne Veen

Minimalism, kitsch and absurdity merging into abstract portraits of everyday silliness. I would like to call it Mylittleponyism. Maybe a new art form?

Nothing for the coffee party with your grandparents or a job interview but maybe worth a thought...
