2012 (It Ain't The End)

For Fall/Winter 1992, Gianni Versace presented his Bondage collection, which has been so far regarded as the sexiest garments imaginable as worn on the runway by the greatest of supermodels.Without hesitation, the collection strongly impresses me and inspires me to put together a new look which is also added drapes,futurism,and structure elements.

For the major long black shirt, I wanted it to be a contrasting textures combination that seemed ethereal but also structure. Thus, I selected twill spandex fabric as the main structure, asymmetrically blocking patent leather, and Jamaica knit with swallow gird patterns.The patent leather part keeps the structure of the garment, while the knit and the spandex fabric enable it to be soft and ethereal.

For the details, I chose a classic golden Versace button as the collar button. Moreover, in order to maintain the wholeness of the whole garment, all the buttons were made invisible snaps, while surprisingly with asymmetric elements.

"Well the man in there swings while the silliest things 
Floppin around in my brain. 
And I try not to dream 
but them possible schemes Swim around, 
wanna drown me in synch. 
 And I, don't know how, 
to slow it down. 
Oh my mind's racing from 
chasing pirates."


Chasing Pirates by Norah Jones 


It's always too late when the fall in the tropical comes.
But, when it arrives, the pace of life has been accelerated,
with a lot to learn, quite a few to practice.
I think I'm well prepared. ^ ^

 Oscar Wilde onced said,“You can never be overdressed or overeducated.”In most circumstance, this quote is a basic rule for a majority of people to choose their outfits.
One can't deny that less-is-more chic has probably been advanced of any other styles. Back to reality, however, not everyone are like Karlie Kloss with an ideal stature, nor few of us are likely to become Kate Moss.When it comes to ones who don't have a perfect stature or even out of physical shape, it seems much wiser for them to attempt the "More-is-more" style. Yu Masui,Anna dello Russo,Bryan Boy..it's that the sight around only gathers on you while you are expressing YOURSELF instead of wearing fashion. Oversize, patterns-on-patterns, literariness....these are the words to describe the overconfident you.

Maison Martin Margiela with H&M collection Lookbook


 The collection is all about the history of Margiela: All of the items are updated versions of Margiela’s unforgettable moments. The collection is available from November 15th and it sure does look good to me! One of the best collaboration collections.



Seeing the clothes, TianCouture posted, “Wow, hands down the best, and most interesting, H&M collection to date...”

Scott, a fan of Maison Martin Margiela under Margiela himself, had a lot to say. “I like that long patchwork silk dress (interpreted from one of my favorite collections, Spring 1992, in which he recycled silk head scarves from various periods) and one of Margiela's signature men's pieces, that waistcoat made of belts… Who is going to buy this?” he wondered. “It seems a little more niche and esoteric in spirit than the typical garb people gravitate toward at H&M. I mean, for the devoted original Margiela fans who never got to experience the earliest of his work, this will give a piece of that, if just in spirit. But I'll be curious if it ultimately creates the same kind of frenzy Comme des Garcons and the like have. But this kind of ticks me off though,” he continued. “This is NOTHING like what we're getting in any of the mainlines and it just questions if they can utilize the old spirit of Margiela in this context, why the flipping hell can they not bring a bit of that back into the primary maison?”


Why indeed? At least we have H&M to help resurrect that spirit for the moment.
