Sophia Kokosalaki Fall 2002

Ms. Kokosalaki's latest collections have left me cold. It's not that they're that bad, it's just that this stuff was that good. Her old collections really captured me - they were so severe, so spot o...

Sacai Spring 2010

Chitose Abe gets better with each season that passes and it's pretty exciting to see her signature techniques developing before our eyes. Her talent for de/reconstruction only grows more powerful as ...

The Dress & Co. Spring 2010

The Dress & Co. Hideaki Sakaguchi this season is, true to form, a charming mix of outerwear and delicate fabrics. The muted colors are really attractive and just lovely for spring, as are the clo...

Undercover Kanazawa

Just wanted to make a quick post with some photos by Jun, of UC's newest shop, which is located in Kanazawa. It looks amazing, I can't wait to see it in person. The displays are so cool and I love th...

Cruella x Rick Owens

She immediately flung it off her head but it was fabulous for the moment.

fur fur Spring 2010

Curiously underrated designer Aya Furuhashi delivers another outstanding collection this spring. I have to mention the presentation first because I think it is adorable; the infinite layers of scatte...

Suzuki Takayuki Spring 2010

If it wasn't already wildly apparent that this man is pure genius, then hopefully after this collection, it will be. Looking at any one of his pieces always sends me into a string of amorous adjectiv...

Haider Ackermann Spring 2010

Haider is just delicious. Clearly one of the only designers who sees draping not as a trend, but as an art form, he is taking his aesthetic to amazing new heights as each season passes. As I always s...

Vanessa Bruno Spring 2010

Though SS10 wasn't a ground-breaking season overall, it's the individual triumphs that will make it a memorable one to me. Such as Ms. Hash returning to form, for example, and let us add another one ...

Maison Martin Margiela Spring 2010

I don't usually waste time writing about the things that I don't like, but this surpasses the realm of dislike and is in full-on offensive territory. How little respect does Rosso and his new team ha...

Comme des Garçons Spring 2010

* Two words: fucking perfect. After the incredibly tough act to follow that was her Autumn collection, she's back with another magical one. It's hard to really comment on everything or else I'd be he...

Undercover Spring 2010

* For me personally, Jun Takahashi's sportswear collections are, albeit not as whimsical as some of his others, just as interesting as far as detail is concerned and even more so in their amazing fun...

Ann Demeulemeester Spring 2010

I am loving Ann so much this season for implementing things that dreams are made of - zippers, straps, headpieces, facial bindings, etc... well, my dreams, anyway. Aside from the accessories, there i...

Junya Watanabe Spring 2010

A very straightforward collection from Junya this season, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Practicality can still be exciting, especially when someone of his calibre is performing the task. T...

TAO Spring 2010

Add another one on to the list of unexpectedness, but this one is most intriguing to me. As any long time TAO worshipper would be, I was sort of taken aback by the presentation alone. Not in a bad wa...

Yohji Yamamoto Spring 2010

While Limi made the cheeky move of asking "C'est un peu de Yohji Yamamoto?" on her SS10 invitations, perhaps it should have been done the other way around. This collection seems like some sort of une...

Manish Arora Spring 2010

You can always count on Manish Arora to be quite a show. Sure, the themes are as literal as can be but there is really something to be said for the complexity within the garments. The interesting tec...

Bernhard Willhelm Spring 2010

Willhelm is undoubtedly one of the best in the game at working with prints and volume, particularly simultaneously. Decidedly toned down, or perhaps matured from his seasons of the past, this is a re...

Anne Valérie Hash Spring 2010

Hands down one of the most pleasant surprises of the day, Ms. Hash is back and seriously on point! I am thrilled she made a return in the same vein as some of her past collections, and not just any o...

Lanvin Spring 2010

You've got to love Alber Elbaz. Not only for being one of the most adorable creatures I can think of, but for his relentless celebration of the female form and spirit. Sure, there is nothing revoluti...

Limi Feu Spring 2010

+ Staying true to herself 100% but in the same token, Limi introduces some really pivotal elements this season and it's definitely an overall win. The classic silhouettes, the styling, her signature ...

Rick Owens Spring 2010

+ It is probably not surprising to read that I am in love with this, but with good reason, no? Conjuring up a perfect marriage of classic and new concepts, Mr. Owens brings forth a flawless and super...

MeadhamKirchhoff Spring 2010

I'll admit off the bat that I am biased in my love for this collection, as this is pretty much in the vein of the aesthetic I gravitate toward most and is also how I like to dress... however, I think...

Charles Anastase Spring 2010

After what was an uncharacteristic, let down of a collection last season, in my opinion anyways, Charles is BACK and as good as ever. This collection screams his name; all of the attributes we know a...

Rodarte Spring 2010

My favorite kinfolk duo (and fellow anime lovers!), Rodarte, are back and suffice to say they've brought along with them a beautiful collection. Darkness for Spring? Yes, please. These ladies are doi...

Rad Hourani Spring 2010

Thank heavens for Rad Hourani, this season especially. I am enamored with his directional progression; there's little better than a designer with an original look that just gets better and better ove...

Jeremy Laing Spring 2010

Carrying over from his very nicely done and well-received autumn collection, Jeremy Laing is back with another one. I am really loving the range of fabrics he chose and worked into this one and the ...

NYFW + Gary Graham Spring 2010

NYFW is a mess this year, a huge mess of tired trends and dated or just completely redundant collections. Not that it's usually an invigorating fashion week or anything, but this season seems particu...

Chitose Abe x Moncler Spring 2010

Moncler did well by inviting the amazing designer of Sacai, Chitose Abe, to design a collection for them. How stunning are these silhouettes? If there's one thing above all that Abe does flawlessly, ...

Rick Owens furniture

Rick Owens has created some new furniture for an upcoming exhibit, which will be showcased alongside some of his previous works. He seems to employ many of the same inspirations he does with his clot...
