Ref? Original idea!
BTW, fds and I all agree that KvA might well be the designers behind those Dior Homme slitted V-neck cashmere sweater 'n etc, which he showed in his own defile. I don't agree people said about his references are the notion/ tribute to his mentor- Monsieur Slimane. Maybe the original idea came from hi yu KvA while serving the House of Dior. I was once a DH fan, however, who on earth would like to look as mod as Pete Doherty??? As someone else in this room mentioned b4, after 4 assistants left DH, it's not the same anymore @ DH. Everyone on earth knows, lotsa DH's ideas ever since the very beginning was actually originally from Raf Simons. Hedi Slimane is turning to a star-studded stylist, vvvv disappointing!dhclam said:

thanks for bringing this in astrid, a new name to watch out for
The guy, who designs Verri was also Hedi's assistant at the same time as Nicolas and Kris...
It's alleged that the pricing is on the high side, although not necessarily on a par with Dior Homme at present. But it shouldn't be too much lower. Whether a considerable pricing differential is applicable across countries is yet to be witnessed.
I can't wait to see the actual items, and I can't help but declaring that his 2006s/s collection is simply adorable!

It´s not so terribly expensive as Dior at least... one of the distorted neckline shawl collar blazers (S/S 2006) costs about 625€ in the cotton gabardine, printed T-shirts are an average of 110€, the only pieces that were ridiculously expensive were the panama hats ( 570 - 1100€!), the umbrellas (1090€!) and the embroidered waistcoat (roughly 4800€!)... but then again, who´d want those ites anyway

The most classic suit for S/S 2006 (the jacket features a detachable smoking shirt collar) costs about 970€ and comes in an optical weave design... I can´t describe this so well, I´m sorry. The fabric is a bit heavier than Super100s but less then Dior Homme´s wool gabardine if I remember correctly.

The embroidered waistcoat?
Any pics? which one is it on the runway?I heard that Kris actually think that the panama hats were his highlight.. since Hedi didn't take it off in his collection he is trying to do that with his.
