Sruli Recht-Icelandic designer

Sruli Retch is a28 yo designer who was born in Jerusalem and currently based in Reykjavik, Iceland. His obsession of geometric tailoring and architectural shapes really impress me. There is a sense of sinister and gothic in his designs which is quite captivating. Moreover, every garment is impeccably finished inside and out so that wearers could use either or. His new range of shoes is equally exquisite and was noticably featured on dianepernet and stylebubble

I feel like every garment should be viewed on different angles to appreciate the detailed construction and strong silhouette of his amazing design and execution

Seal skin hooded dress



Leather neckbrace vest (very early Mcqueen and Margiela)

It's not that functional as it looks. But I love the innovative use of closuring. It's used as if it's always meant to be used liked that.
If only some of the coats and jackets were more flattering in the arms. I love thin/tight and long arms. That's up to the designer.

nice stuff, and the look reminds me of carol christian poell and martin margiela, and i like his treatment of exotic hides.

hopefully icelandic designers will get more exposure soon. i recently saw a t shirt design at h&m that was from an icelandic designer, rather good looking stuff.

wow,his work is really,really strong! i like the usage of those objects besides the clothes itself....it does remind one of margiela but also a bit of robert cary. but his skill is brilliant. i don't think many designers...many emerging talents,can take on these kinds of ideas and elements and execute them in such an extraordinary manner. he's wise beyond his years,really.

and as far as function....well,it may not work on everybody but i would refrain from saying it doesn't all together. i can imagine alot of the design keen people in wintry reykjavik wearing some of these coats and capes.

Wow. This is extremely beautiful. It somewhat reminds me of the work of Carol Christian Poell. But that leather neckbrace vest scares me. It reminds me of the Silence of the Lambs... I love the menswear. Where to buy, and what are the price points on the shoes and jackets? I want some!
