John Malkovitch, acteur et réalisateur à l'origine, n'a pas que le cinéma dans la vie. A l'occasion de la fashion week de Milan, il présentera aujourd'hui sa nouvelle collection pour homme appelée Technobohemian. Ce n'est pas la première fois que John Malkovich imagine une ligne de vêtement, puisqu'il avait déjà conçu la ligne Uncle Kimono en 2002. Il s'est associé au groupe italien Arezzo pour créer cette nouvelle collection de vêtements pour homme au style plutôt casual.

He has a collection showing at men's Fashion week, sponsored by the Azzero group.

oops sorry...

John Malkovitch, actor and director from the start, doesn't only have films in his life. At the fashion week in Milan, today he presented his new collection for men called Technobohemian. This is not the first time John Malkovich designed a clothing line, since he had already designed the Uncle Kimono Line in 2002. He joined the Italian group Arezzo to create this new collection of clothing for men which has a casual style.

yeah i think the uncle kimono line was a collaboration with british designer bella freud. but i think that one was more concept-based. i love john malkovich and he's pretty irreverent so who knows...

^forgive me those were merely film projects. but you can sort understand the bug...he being involved creatively and visually with a fashion designer.

the set is nice^ and i like some details. i wonder if he's doing a film for that too

^forgive me those were merely film projects. but you can sort understand the bug...he being involved creatively and visually with a fashion designer.

i think i just watched what you're talking about it was on last night. documentary film co-produced by howard brull for FashionTV. called "Flipping Uncle Kimono"

it seems John is the actual designer...
there was another guy, Francesco Rulli. a business partner

later on you see some clothes and they all have names. like 'girl's collar sweater'. John was saying it was this idea of something you wear when you go out, and want to get beat up
also...
-japanese spy suit
-mini moolah
-teedo's parrot
-nervous break down jacket
-f**ing commy sweater

for their 'show' they had judo martial artists/students wearing the clothes and doing their thing.
