Straps & Strings IV

1. Lonely Hearts Lookbook
2. Unknown

Not being able to wear a bra and reveal its construction may be a temporarily hurtful deficit for the male human - as long as its principle will not establish itself in latter's wardrobe.

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.

Removal

Top Helmut Lang

White letters on white ground. White cotton on white skin. Helmut Lang Underwear. Luckily it did not become one of the shredded fragments for his latest Make It Hard installation. I'll make it my everyday uniform.

The Men's Bra

1. Jose Manuel Ferrater, 1992
2. François Sagat for Bernhard Willhelm Spring/Summer 2008
3. Julius Spring/Summer 2012
4. Nikos

The only logic consequence in extrapolation of the men's dress, the men's robe and the men's corset. Although being obvious, we rarely allowed ourselves to imagine its realisation.

Judas

1. Unknown
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.

Confrontation Therapy

Underwear Nikos

As indicated before I have to overcome my aversion to velvet. When I found this black velvet Nikos tanga with mesh cutout detail, me and my therapist were convinced the experiment had succeeded.

White Lace Fight

Dolce & Gabbana Spring/Summer 2011 vs. Lace underwear

Take a Dolce & Gabbana collection, divide and transform its elements into men's underwear. Lace. Leopard. Crystals. Cutouts. Conservatism and liberality. It's wrong, it's beautiful.

Suggestion #10

John Galliano newspaper print briefs

And finally, something someone can actually afford. A nice pair of the iconic Galliano briefs. If that's too sexy for your cupboard, you could also go for a pair of black leather gloves. Happy Christmas shopping!

I think I am allowed to post half-naked guys again, am I? I mean I haven't posted fresh meat in ages, non? Personally, I cannot remember anything like that. This is an intellectual art blog. Sure, sure.

Ambitions

After discovering my love for and indulging myself in wearing tanga briefs, the next mission is to find the perfect body suit. Preferably minimalist, pure cotton, no funny details. Anyone?

To fight my German beer belly I will start going to the gym. To work out and watch other people working out. Only one question remains: What to wear?
