Act Of Compensation

Julius Spring/Summer 2011

Although I didn't find the perfect lederhosen yet (they have to be black, they have to be flower embroidered, they have to fit), I made the pleasant encounter with pieces from the Julius SS11 collection. Maybe they will have to do instead.

Predestination

Salvador Dalí The Enigma of Wilhelm Tell, 1933

A perfect sunday. A day of impressions. A closer look at one certain piece of art. It made me realize: Buying sandals in winter is not more surreal than the work of Salvador Dalí.

Inventory

The men's handbag. An item to be revived against all criticism. I don't need a weekender just to carry around Moleskine notebook, pen and tanga briefs. Am I right?

Meander

Raf Simons Spring/Summer 2010

It's mine. It's tacky. It has snakes on it. It's definitely borderline. Yes, it's actually kitsch. But it's Raf. And it's mine. Mine. Mine! How nice it feels, this fulfilled shopping enthusiasm.

Carving Board

Maison Martin Margiela Spring/Summer 2011

A reinforced laminate waistcoat. An example of artisanal craftsmanship. Clear evidence and perfect proof for the MMM ethos: redefinition of materials and calculated misappropriation.

Dispartment

Wooyoungmi Spring/Summer 2011

First and foremost: the glasses are divine. A remarkable collection aiming for the modern humanist and poet. The adequate wardrobe for a man who is dedicated to scientific research and the critical discourse.
