Rearmamentum

John Galliano Spring/Summer 2008

As a matter of fact, middle-aged Germans love to dress in matching outdoor clothes when travelling. John Galliano, me, myself and I strongly recommend to join this clothing codex. Utility vests for survival. And tribal tattoos, please.

The final post to conclude my military trilogy: Make Love Not War. And what else do we need: camouflage, half-nakedness, tribal tattoos. I'll try to abandon my obsession pretty soon, promised.

Julie Eilenberger Exploration collection

It's weird. I am currently a lot into moss green. And I have also overcome the antipathy towards camouflage and military. Now that the spell is broken, well dosed worship is allowed. Especially when Julie Eilenberger delivers the munition.

Russki Chic

Gosha Rubchinskiy Spring/Summer 2009

I can't deny a certain fascination and attraction to the East European rude boy aesthetic. Shaved heads, bomber jackets, XL sweaters. Camouflage shorts, tennis socks and cans of beer. It might be the notion of innocence hiding behind the militaristic façade.
