Denomination




Gabriel Stunz Spring/Summer 2011

Although the collection's title 'Gakona' refers to a small village in the mountains of Alaska, its sound and final outcome does evoke a notion of Japanese tradition. Paired with German severity and craftsmanship, it results in the emphasis of two elements, two sides, the elusiveness of belt and scarf.

Anaphylaxis





Jil Sander Fall/Winter 2010

Promises. Closer. Slits. Legs. Sound. Space. Twitch. Jumpsuits. Robots. Cybersuits. Sometimes there is no rational explanation, just feelings. And conviction. The strong belief that this is just right.

Psychologic


Jil Sander Fall/Winter 2009

Lately, I've been asked what kind of dress would characterize me best. What dress would I pick if I were a woman. What dress would I dream of. And this is my choice. Minimal and severe but also complicated and allusively sexual.

Synthesis




Spon Diogo Spring/Summer 2010

Amazingness. Simultaneously soft and rough with a tiny little reference to my one and only woman of desire, Brigitte Nielsen. Resurrected through a high-cut silver body.

Army Of Lovers




Meadham Kirchhoff Fall/Winter 2009

This collection is close to perfection. White long shirts with messy see-through details, cut-out knees, leather halters. Pieces I totally would love to wear myself.

It's A Sin




Yves Saint Laurent Fall/Winter 2008

I haven't shown it yet, so it's time to look back (can be good sometimes) and pay homage to Stefano Pilati and his achievements for YSL. Sheer blouses, wide high-waisted trousers, male severeness, constructed silhouettes.

No Smoke




Women wear suits, best with wide, floating, high waisted trousers and a cropped jacket. The hair sleek and combed back. A white shirt, severe look. Give it to me.
