Stud Safari

Givenchy Spring/Summer 2009

Still in love with this collection. Especially today when temperatures hit high. Evoking the image of sweltry hot desert nights. Muscular nomads sleeping in white tents. Wearing nothing but the tattoos on their skin and lace shorts.

The Fall

The Fall 2006

Morphine for the eyes. An unjustly underrated and unregarded piece. The world re-constituting itself. Constantly shifting. And merging its narrative levels. It's like a Jean-Paul Gaultier collection replayed as a movie.

Syncrisis

Prince of Persia 1989 & 2010

Please excuse my latest 80s-boy-loves-adventure-fairytale-computer-game-movie-adaption tendendies. But did I already share my childhood addiction of playing Prince of Persia on my 486 PC? Now you know.

Combat Zone

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.

Dune

Dune 1984

This movie is incredible. Partly disgusting and scary when confronted with evil Harkonnen's human experiments, but mostly stunning due to the monumental setting and imagery. I am also impressed by Kyle MacLachlan's perfect quiff.

P.S.: And how I loved the computer game. I wish my 386 PC back.

Contrarious Conditions

JULIAANDBEN Spring/Summer 2011

Picturing an extraterrestrial travel. Facing landscapes absorbed by human action and manipulated into contradictory extremes. The desert and the ice. The inhuman confronted with garments of purity, instinctiveness and craftsmanship.
