Utopian Dream

This is the new man/ Athletic form/ Control me/ White and flawless – these are some new fashionable concepts and the trend is already in the air. Sounds like a new fashion utopia. Or, more precisely, as a new body utopia.

This editorial belongs to the summer issue of Tush magazine .

The Perfect Wardrobe (4 A Perfect Summer)

Speaking of young designers, Rad Hourani is one of my favorites. Sharp silhouettes, great clothes, a fresh perspective – he managed to design his own way into the fashion world.

Rad Hourani’ s Spring/Summer 2011 collection comes with something extra, promoting an ideal wardrobe: 6 garments, 22 transformable looks. Unisex looks.

Another Design Object

Intelligent textiles are quite exciting, especially when they’re extremely wearable. So let’s take a look. Stone Island are already known for their research on thermo-sensitive coating for fabrics: reacting to cold (Ice Jacket) and to heat (Heat Reactive). This is their Heat Reactive Jacket, which is able to modify its color from dark to acid green (the key – temperature is 27° Celsius). Love the product & the concept!

The Ultimate Element

Here’s a stunning editorial published in the April edition of Interview Magazine. Clean, edgy, perfectly designed. Fashion goes minimal, but doesn’t skip the story. Fashion plays Scince Fiction, Guinevere van Seenus plays the perfect being.  Here she is in the role of Leeloo.

America’s Got Talent

Tired of dark, colored, nuanced, twisted? I’m not tired yet! I’m still curious about so many things… Now I have a strong interest in minimal exercises and fashionable clean cuts. So, here’s a short selection of what I call Spring/ Summer 2011 “clean look – Made in USA”. Alexander Wang’s collection came as a surprise. This season he suddenly became light, optimistic, minimal & extra large. I love the V cuts and the back of the dresses.

Talking about Minimal Fashion – let’s take a look at Calvin Klein SS 2011 Campaign. Clothes are white, smooth, with beautiful shape & a wonderful cut. It’s like a paper cut. Then comes the topping – the photo shooting by Mert & Marcus, featuring popular Lara Stone (this time less provocative, more accurate and a bit… robotic).

From basic T-shirts to simple cut, dresses and jeans, they always keep it simple. Pure & functional – this is inspiring. Sounds like a basic design lesson, don’t you think?
