God, I’m so biased when it comes to Acne, I can’t even pretend to write something remotely objective. I love them to bits. Like, I want to squeeze them till they can’t breathe. And then the show starts and half of it’s all black – after five days of Paris it was like heaven. Swedish heaven somewhere in the 15eme. A perfect end to Paris.
Till women’s…

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
Those of us who are gothically inclined have long been waiting for Thom Browne to embrace a darker concept – yes, I often sound like I’m a 15-year-old Trent Reznor fan from the Mid-West – and this season it finally happened. Deformed, over-padded Frankensteins and studded ghouls paraded down a prison-esque catwalk to the familiar tones of (I think) the theme of Dracula. As always, an experience I wouldn’t have been without. Happy I braved the Daystar for it.

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
Anders Sølvsten Thomsen, DANSK fashion editor-at-large and sometime human ladder if I have to reach a book on a high shelf, was on styling duty at Qasimi. And what a grand show the gentlemen put on! Tartan in all sorts of variations and materials, and – as captured above – a rather epic floor-length kilt. What Khalid Al Qasimi does always feels like something out of the ordinary at the Paris shows – it’s really quite attractive. And with a Danish touch, who could refuse?

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
Throughout the entire Paul Smith show I was frantically trying to come up with some sailor-related to tweet, but I finally had to admit to myself that I was never that child. I can’t talk sailor, I can’t quote Popeye, and I even just had to google his name to find out how to spell it. So there we go. Not adept in the realm of sailorness, but quite a fan of the show, nonetheless. Sir Paul introduced me to a sailor that I could really get to love… maybe sans the facial hair, but apart from that. All tip-top. Liked it a lot.

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
Since I’ve become British – I borrowed this line from Madonna – I’ve learned the importance of congregating with other Britons when in a foreign land. This is why one of my favourite events during Paris men’s is the LONDON show ROOMS MEN, hosted by the BFC. Sunday saw the official reception, which gave me an opportunity to get a preview of the London A/W 2012 collections – for instance that of SIBLING, above (featuring a dapper and recently married Joe Bates), and James Long and Agi & Sam, below.
Now that London is getting its own menswear week as of next season – the announcement was made by Dylan Jones and my future husband His Majesty Lord Harold Tillman OBE at a grand party hosted by the BFC on Sunday evening – all the London menswear designers will get a bigger and better platform on which to present their work. Well-deserved. And thanks for a great party!

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
How much fun is an agnès b show?! I’m ashamed to say this season marked my first agnès b show, and I had no idea what an awesome atmosphere the grand lady conjures up. Not only was there a wonderful improvisational air about it, it also felt really happy and frivolous – which is something we don’t get to see too often in menswear. Quite an experience, and one I look forward to having again.

January 22nd 2012, Posted By anders In Fashion Theory
LOVING Lanvin and Purple for seating me in the UK section. I finally had someone to talk to! I mean, over in the alternative section where I do spend a certain amount of time at shows, they might call it ‘international’ but that doesn’t mean people actually speak English. So thank you! At Lanvin I got to sit next to Charlie Clark from Elite London and I don’t think I’ve had a faster gossip ping-pong all week. I was a happy trooper.
As always, Lanvin reminded us what beautiful means. I don’t think anyone masters the art of re-imagining the architecture of classic garments quite Lucas Ossendrijver – and I don’t think stripes have ever looked more appealing. Lanvin always make me love the unexpected, and for that I love Lanvin. Love all around. And happy 10th anniversary to Alber!
