I just wanted to share some images of the first clothes from my own line, Leon.
While these are not part of a specific collection, these were the first items created under the line. They were for The Nouveau Classical Project, a collaboration between classical musicians, fashion designers and artists. Fashion designers were given a specific piece of chamber music to use as inspiration, in turn, they design clothes for the musicians to wear during the performance. (artists were given the same thing, so each performance had a designer and an artist)

I was given a trio of male musicians, the piece I was given was Brahms Piano Trio Op. 87 C Major I.

While these are not all the pieces from the show, these were the main ones. I have to apologize though, I left my camera with good images from the show with a friend, however we are planning to shoot a book for the show, so I will post some pics of the clothes on the musicians.

Waterproof linen trench with fencing closure. Lined sleeves.

1 button notched lapel blazer. 5 working cuff buttons

And my favorite piece I made for the musicians. Wide leg cuffed trousers. The belt loops detached from the inside via buttons, and each pair has an elastic drawstring belt that you can slip on and secure through the belt loops. Thus turning the formal pant into a more casual 'sweats' like pant. Alternatively you can just wear it with a belt. When worn with a belt it cinches into a paperbag waist.
As for the other pieces, I did a combo dress shirt thats part jersey and part shirting, a reversable shoulder bag and a brooch with the help of artist tobias wong! I will get pics of those up when I can. I hope you enjoyed these!


For a first show I'm very happy with how it all turned out, and I hope to churn out a full collection soon.

beautiful menswear, mouko!

i like how your design input has got real substance, as in the secured trench belt and fake jogging trousers.

do you already produce for wholesale clients or are you currently making the clothes for sampling, only?

thanks for the kind words!

Right now these are just for the show, not for sale. However next month I'm going to be working on my first full collection. Where I take it from there (wholesale? online?..etc) is still up in the air.

unknown designers you want to promote.

I wanted to start this thread so that we can share designers that aren't very known.

I wanted to start my these guys (who are actually my cousins ) with their bag brand JACK GOMME.
I've started a thread on them with pictures give it a look!

Mark Fast + Mary Katrantzou both CSM graduates who showed this morning at London Fashion Week.I think the latter has a really distinct approach to design and Mark Fast is doing great things in knitwear.Cannot find ANY pictures from the show though.
Someone find them and make a thread please!

They're my cousins, and they have a bag store called JACK GOMME. They a lot of cool bags imo.

They are located in paris, but have stores in japan too and once had a store in soho.
