there is a certain sadness that i get when i look at work like this.
It saddens me because , i wonder, what does a really good designer has to do to be supported in the industry and be respected for thier work.
I never heard of this show/ Presentation in NY, i didnt see it covered anywhere.
then i see a trove of editors , journalists etc. subjecting themselves to attending shows like heatherette, yeah i said it,. HEATHERETTE.......
and a whole lot of others that i wont even bother to mention.

this is a really beautiful collection......... and i am sad as it is beautiful

^i concur.

The cut and tailoring is amazing, coupled with great design and imagination. One of the loveliest, goose-bumps raising collections this F/W. Shame about the lack of coverage. This beats the Martin Grants or Marc Jacobs handsdown anytime.

And for once, everybody AGREES! That pretty much confirms his talent in this collection. Hope he gets better and more recognized.

I couldn't agree more...If I wasn't a member of TFS I probably wouldn't of seen this collection, it's a real shame.

Does anyone know where his collections are available? I checked his site but there was not stockist list or anything about where to buy.

^maria luisa and colette-both in paris-is all i know of for certain.

I could get wordy about this but... I can feel the craft of these clothes - the little bit of string to hang a soft fabric, the way everything must move. My only criticism is that I wish it was a more interesting fabric.

 

[telepathicgoat]

colette doesnt carry him anymore neither does maria luisa. he just had an exhibition in arnhem (NL) at the fashion bi-annual
