Minor Royalty




Number (N)ine Spring/Summer 2009

Post-medieval insanity. Albino princes in strait jackets. Which brings up the longing to bleach my hair and dress in creme and white. From head to toe. Or to hunt for a Number (N)ine archive piece.

Vulgar Thoughts






Photos Nobuyoshi Araki

When I attend a guided tour in a museum, I feel quite embarrassed, almost amused. And entertained by the whispered theories of its visitors. Ashamed faces when confronted with erotic art are probably the most enjoyable.

Death






1. Vanitas still life & Givenchy Spring/Summer 2011
2. Hedi Slimane still life & Comme des Garçons Spring/Summer 2011

I've never understood the fascination for it. I am afraid of death. Who can take this fear away? Or is this even possible? Men in leopard skirt shorts might be a consolatory beginning.

Permanent Crime



Dries van Noten Fall/Winter 2010 (ruined by a permanent marker)

I love my vintage-new Dries shirt. Olive green with thin black outlines, seemingly hand-drawn onto the seam's edges. Painfully, someone took this aesthetic approach literally today. And accidentally ruined it with a permanent marker.

Belgian Confusion



Ann Demeulemeester Spring/Summer 2008

Life in Antwerp is so slow, I fall asleep. Actually, I am in an Ann Demeulemeester Dada coma right now. Constantly trying to disarm my impatience. And soothing myself with shopping fantasies.

Vertical Altar




Green marble, golden letters. Exterior. Brutalist tables, industrial surfaces. Interior. Aesthetically, Houben can be considered the most beautiful shopping space in Antwerp. Probably best described as sci-fi baroque.
