BODE SS18 MEN’S WEAR

花花恤衫最讓人著迷的地方是他代表了渡假、輕鬆和休閑。通常喜歡這種風格的人都會變得很iconic,以很只要你看到花花恤衫就會想到他。第一眼看到Bode的設計時最令我震撼的是他們25張造型照,布料幾乎沒有重複(所以花紋都不一樣的)。這個成本應該蠻高的吧…不過呢,穿著得彩色一點也是很讓人開心的!其實花紋不是很難去配搭,如果你夠膽花紋配花紋通常都會很有風格的。基本一點的話,一件花紋配一件彩色也是可行的。

Running through Vogue.com, another nice introduction to new menswear label Bode. This is just some digable ish right here. Not really breaking any new ground, but breaking new ground at the same time. It’s taste. In cut selection, garment selection, patterns. It don’t matter if you got the flyest technology in the world but can’t piece it all together. Yeah it’s 70’s, sportif, blah blah blah. It’s just dope.

FIRST LOOK 2 : SUN=SEN FASHION PRESENTATION

SUN=SEN是一個你看過不會忘記的香港本地品牌。因為他們的形象風格很是鮮明,衣服上一些奇怪又可愛的細節總是吸引著我們的眼球。這一季的FW18他們就用上當鋪當「當嬰兒」的傳統作靈感,然後我們就大膽的用他們這個想法發展了一個「與神交易」的時裝展示。很高興我們這個瘋狂的想法得到SUN=SEN的設計師和我們的朋友KAMP Studios 的Daniel 支持,他為我們做了一個充滿幻想的場境。岩石、鏡子、玻璃、一些自然而生的物料都用在這裡,那些彎曲的鏡子照著前面一個個有慾望的模特兒們。他們都等候著那「女神」的出現改變他們的生活。最後這班模特居然為了一己私慾帶走了一個現場觀眾當祭品呢(但我不知道她為什麼那麼高興…)!一場表演8種不同個性展示著SUN=SEN的設計的無限可能。那你完全想不到的充氣口袋、潛水帽子……去實際了解一下他們天馬行空的奇怪想法吧。

Do you believe in the Chinese ritual of ‘selling’ your baby to a pawn shop to ensure it’s health? SUN=SEN’s FW18 collection found inspiration from this traditional premise, and damn did we have a time trying to interpret it in some way! By recruiting some help from our good friend Daniel Kamp of KAMP Studios we decorated the set with natural objects, rocks, mixed with manufactured objects, mirrors, and panes of glass to speak to this polarity of an idea. The presentation centered around a ‘goddess’ type figure. A figure if the other models could please would receive the gift of the life they desired! How about them apples! It all came together rather well. To the clothing itself, SUN=SEN’s collection for AW18 continued their interest in bright colors and their combinations. Interesting details included blow up plastic pouches and pockets worked into clothing. The quirkiness and strange irregularity really works for us and has drawn them due international attention. A truly original brand that works along the lines of a Bernard Wilhelm, we have great expectations for their imminent success!

FIRST LOOK 2 : YEUNG CHIN FASHION PRESENTATION

我們終於能夠與我們的朋友,香港設計師YC楊展合作了!他用了一個怪異的電影作為靈感設計了這一場時裝表演。這是一個我們不太熟悉的風格,他向我們介紹了這個日本導演Shije Terayama。無論如何那天我們將PMQ反轉了:那個細小的房間中我們阻擋了所有光源,令視覺上的一切都是強烈的顏色和黑暗的互相糾纏。包括一個Shibari表演也是在這令人不安的黑暗中發生的。當中似乎有個「話事人」,所以人都要跟隨他的指示。但「話事人」後面還有一個「話事人」…當中12個模特兒有的被人騷擾著、有的裸體。房中很侷促,應該是個人人都想離開的地方但觀眾卻不停地進入了解這看來變態的表演(還有人帶小朋友…)。這就是我們最想看到的畫面,震驚著來PMQ的你,開放的去欣賞我們的創意。

Yes we were finally able to collaborate with our friend and HK designer, Yeung Chin. And what a collaboration it was! A short, bizarre movie was the inspiration behind the show. YC introduced me to a Japanese director, Shije Terayama, who’s work I was not familiar with. It was a surreal piece, at turns erotic, and just plain bugged out. Visually it was heavily color gelled, and we took those 2 pieces as starting points. Well 3, surreal, erotic, and colorful. What manifested was a performance piece the likes of which PMQ had never seen! It included wild characters, and a Shibari performance, all in a dark, yet colorful room that barely fit the performers! It was hot, crammed, and a challenge for the audience. Just the way we wanted it! Really enjoyed the fact that fashion stereotypes were challenged. Specifically body forms and traditional concepts of beauty. Also, it was a pleasant surprise to see an audience from all walks of life, nationality, and age, be open-minded and appreciative of the piece! Onwards and upwards YC!

SCHIARAPELLI FW17 HAUTE COUTURE WOMEN’S WEAR

高定也許是最認真的時裝。不但是做工和設計,即使穿著者也一定是出席重要場合。有時候也看得有點認真和緊張。但是Schiarapelli的高定可以說是活潑的。同樣是那些輕的布料,但從用色、設計和剪裁,Schiarapelli的感覺都是活潑和誘人的。那畢加索側面的可能未必會有人訂造,那隻龍蝦也是有點過份了。但其他設計的細節很值得留意。那些手套、腰間的胸針裝飾……特別有一件黃、綠、藍拼色的長裙,三個顏色的薄紗隨風飄逸,就像施展魔法時產生的氛圍。這應該是最輕鬆的晚裝了吧哈哈!
