“Long live Ghesquiere…”

Still recovering from the news that Nicolas Ghesquiere will be leaving Balenciaga by the end of the month. I mean, i said to myself “Antonio after your first official big juicy pay check you’ll get something Balenciaga, just because Nicolas is a genius…”, don’t know exactly how I’m going to snatch something from the Ghesquiere era but I will for sure… let’s leave it there.

Spring 2008 was my ultimate favorite collection he made while being a master mind at Balenciaga.

“PFW S/S 2012 Menswear: Ultimate Favorite”

BALENCIAGA

One of the best collections presented during Paris Menswear Fashion Week for Spring 2012. Loved the tailored-to-perfection pieces (look 1), the knitted pieces (current obsession) and the whole 60’s mod cloth vibe. When I tend to like too much something, I completely run out of words. I think that explains why this post is so short when it comes to writing.

"Menswear Spring 2011 Post #6"

• Paul Smith: "Less Structered", thats how Tim Blanks reviewed this collection with hints of late sixties. Bohemian-Punk for me, i think you know how much i love Paul Smith since the post i did of the brands fall 2010 show wich i discovered in one of those lazy sunday evenings, and this was no exception as i still like most of the pieces here, specially the tie-dyed look ones and the pussy bows. (Favorite looks below).

• Hermès: A very bright, light, free collection of new basics, called "Hybrid Clothing" by the houses creative director Veronique Nichanian. Hints of Emerald green appeared in suede leather shirts, and a pair of shoes. Great Collection. (Favorite looks below).

• Dior Homme: Simpleness at its best, with a printed almost invisble "Lessness" cloth with the invitation, guests must know what Kris Van Assche was up to. I loved the way how the cloth almost levitated as the model walked down the runway, it felt so light and calm. I also loved how the sleeveless tee's/vest/top drapped on every model thin framme, and how casual and de-preocupied everything felt. (Favorite looks below).

• Balenciaga: "Futuristic Sport" -WWD dot Com review. I could not have said it better, thats the only way to describe this collection. (Favorite looks below).
