There was only 4 models - 4 looks. And it was pretty hard to capture details with the low light... I'll try to photoshop some and i'll post them.

Here's my schedule for tomorow:

Henrik Vibskov

Demeulemeester (i'll try to sneak in)

Julius

Petar Petrov

and Raf Simons

[bluespring]

[misterpretender]

looks nice...but i still like the equestrian themed collection viridi-anne had for fall/winter 2007-2008. but who knows i'm sure there are still more stuff to come...can't wait for the other stuff...

[mike lowrey]

thanks for the pics

from what I can see, the grey parka looks very interesting. Viridi-Anne has been putting on some great stuff recently, looking forward to seeing spring items in person.

WTF. Since when was Julius showing their collections in Paris? I don't think they are on the same level as Number (N)ine or Undercover. I honestly don't understand why Viridi-Anne is in Paris either. Oh wells, enjoy the shows!

because of people like artificialsky. and anyone who shops at the new york number (n)ine store or buys japanese labels at atelier.

i heard john lawrence sullivan is going to show in paris, too.

Well to be fair JLC is a foreign designer who took the easy way out by starting in Japan. But I honestly don't follow your logic. I think a Japanese label needs to be build major credibility in their home turf before going abroad. Yohji, CDG, Junya Watanabe, Undercover, and N(N) all did this and continue to do this. Viridi-Anne & Julius while interesting labels don't really have a presence in the big-leagues. The only Japanese designers/labels who I think have the clout right now are N. Hoolywood and maybe Frapbois, but her influence has waned in the last several years.

[artificialsky]

you give me far too much credit.

That sounds like pretty much the best day ever. If only more stores carried Petrov's line.

Depending on where Ann Demeulemeester is it should be no problem, I've always been to her shows whenever I tried, plus men's week is more relaxed as womens in my opinion.

errr. that was kind of useless

edit, for a more related comment: this presentation reminds me of Jurgi Persoons

[artificialsky]

Cotton Duck at a Ann Demeulemeester show? My mind is blown.

[Charlie Delta]

Cotton Duck at Luster?

Brain Explode???

"Wherever there's a gothninja fashion show, I'll be there."

[Charlie Delta]

Ahahaha! Not allowed to rep. But yeah, that.

i'm saying people think it's good if it's from japan and has "fashion" aura. in america (and elsewhere) being japanese equates to easy street cred. sweden is getting that kind of hype as well (how the fuk else would velour be in the stores it's in?)

[artificialsky]

I'd like to see a Julius x Viridi-Anne x American Dustbowl Era x Grapes of Wrath collection.

Goth Depression Sharecroppers.

[Charlie Delta]

I'd rock that No Problem!

As long as there are tortured leather capes I'm down

If proxied clothes made me cool in real life, do you really think I would spend all my time posting here?

[034936]

i'd love some of those l/s layer jersey's. coated jeans look ace as well.

edit: and this

[SamG]

this would look better without Arsenio wearing it

[artificialsky]

i just can't get past komakino's models. shoot the shit flat on white or something, anything, please.

[jcotteri]
