i like its understatement, the shades of grey and blue, the details on some of the sweaters ... and the mod shoes...
not so keen on the plastic looking anoraks and the graphic sweaters.

same here

This guy has no talent. He keeps being pushed on the young crowd, same way as the likes of Tara Subkoff and Kim Jones are. Absolutely no substance in this collection.

i don't know faust, i don't think that's a very good comparison. you might not find him talented but his background is completely different from the likes of tara subkoff. i don't necessarily find his work aesthetically pleasing but i think he's interesting to watch, i like his concepts...

Bulgarian Petar Petrov is Vienna based since 1999 and started presenting his collections in Paris while still visiting the Raf Simons class at the University of Applied Arts, Department of Fashion, Vienna. His premiere presentation was for the spring/summer season 2003, where his collection was launched at Showroom Romeo. Petrov himself sees his product as follows : one of some by petar petrov – “it comes from the selected pieces I make … so every piece is part of some … every piece is part of the concept, every piece is part of myself somehow”.
In 2003, Petrov could further establish his brand by winning for his spring/summer collection 2004, the Unit F award for international press which covers the annual representation fee at a renowned press office. Then, as a representative of the fashion class at the University of Applied Arts, Department of Fashion and later having his designs chosen for the Moët & Chandon Award for Fashion Schools at GWAND, Lucerne, Switzerland.
2004, he had a video-installation presenting the 2004-2005 autumn/winter collection at Galerie Allaire-Aigret, Paris. In june, the first fashion show during the Paris fashion week called “city camouflage” in Espace Saint-Martin, Paris was celebrated and Petar Petrov was officially introduced into busy show-business. Since then, Petrov has managed to remain an official-calendar regular during the menswear Paris fashion shows and has established clients in Paris, USA, Japan, Hong Kong and Berlin.
His collections are inspired from the environment, working with self-evident things and traditional elements. Using his Eastern European roots as reflections in his work, Petar Petrov is still focused on experimentation and the development of his work, being free in his inspirations, influences, and inventions.

“My work is a radical subjective reflection of reality from the corner of an outsider’s eye. My collections have the role to provoke, to raise questions in the audience. There is no predetermined meaning, but meaning gleaned from the experience of the encounter. The encounter is my interest, not the meaning.”

I like the first hoodie shown in post #2. This season's men collections have very strong hoodies, I like Raf's oversized ones too.

 

[Scott]

I like only that one coat with the leather shoulders.

All in all,I want to like it but I find it all rather redundant. I mean,sporty parkas and hoodies have been way overdone already. I wish we could already lie those things to rest...PLEASE!!

 

[oStelios]

I like what I see but let's wait for the rest of it, his is one of my favorites.
Personaly I think he's completely different from the likes of kim jones.
Thank you Estella Mare

bland- raf did this sort of thing better...

 

[jipushiitmge]

I like the pants..

and..

That's it.

Boring. Bland. Barf

 

[Ianastar]

To me its kind of boring...seems very street style with all the hoodies.

 

[Spacemiu]

I like it, it's a bit dull, but as pieces it's good.

 

[JureP]

very nice... do you have some more?
thanks for posting

His accessories are very interesting - adds quite a bit to the rather unremarkable silhouettes. His clothing is being featured heavily in some of the Fall men's fashion mags, and I have to say, I really want to buy some of the things. Gonna have to hunt them down now...

 

[HELLAS]

I like the t-shirt on look 9 and the outfit on look 11 but in generall it doesn't exite me either...let's see how he evolves though...
