Thanks Faust for telling me of this. I quite like alot of this. You can certainly see the influences from Grimm and Alice in Wonderland. Very sweet.

the presentation idea was somehow 'inspired' from past Bruno Pieters's instalation

wodnerful sweet collection, I love the Alice influence, the puffy jackets are great, I think hs strength is in working the illustrations in. I'm not disapointed but i was expecting more.

I don't like any full looks, but many individual pieces are quite nice.

I love alot the jackets and tops with the exaggerated shoulder puffs. And his illustration prints are beautiful. Like you,I do wish it were a bit moodier and a bit stronger though. Somehow I was expecting something COMPLETELY esoteric from him.

But there's some sweet pieces here for sure.

Lots of these pieces remind me of PurpleLucrezia.

It's cute. Maybe he should stick to illustrations because I absolutely adore that from him. This is ok but he's obviously not as talented as a fashion designer.

I was just thinking how very much I loved this collection, and then started reading so many of these negative posts. What the heck- I think it's lovely! rder: I'd so wear so many of these... And Ciara Nugent!

Just looked him up, and I found this.

CHARLES IN CHARGE

We think illustrator Charles Anastase’s new campaign for CK Choice (Calvin Klein’s younger line) is totally Virgin Suicides. Last year, Anastase teamed up with French label APC on a diary-style book featuring illustrations of all his friends ( APC), and the prolific Londoner, who lives and works in Paris, keeps up the French pose by designing his own haute couture line, which is stocked in numerous Japanese boutiques. And it seems the boy never sleeps, as he also does illustrations for numerous culture bibles including Dazed & Confused and Doing Bird. What a star! Find out more at CHARLES ANASTASE

I very, very badly need to watch that movie...
