Red variation with Italian army comfy pants



Not fresh from a long day of work at the office (pictured)
A "red" variation with the same comfy pants from the Italian army. The shirt is one of my faves i bought it "Chez Mamie" (rue rochechouart in Paris), it's new from a dead stock from the 50's, solid & nice.



Jumper is by the great great Henrik Vibskov from Copenhagen (bought at the Roskilde Festival).



Last layer is by Henrik Vibskov as well, the tissue of this light coat is technical & leaves the water out.





Shoes are PF Flyers (a sub brand from New Balance) & by luck match perfectly with the trousers...

Next time i'll coordinate colours a bit less, maybe too over the top for some people...

Dark green jacket with light grey velvet collar









Dark green jacket with a light grey velvet collar from my favourite designer Moritz Rogosky (2004). The shirt is brown & green army camouflaging with lines embroided, bought in London in 2001. The tie is vintagefound last week in Emaüs (clothes for poor people/ Oxfam equivalent), the link tie/Shirt is striking. Trousers are from the Italian army found in second hand ( probably from 70's), they are amazingly comfortable. Shoes are backwards green leather from Spring Court."

Presentation

Presentation :

Another fashion blog? Yes but for men & for total fun which is rare. It's on the particular way i dress & the clothes story. Every morning it takes me 20 minutes to coordinate the colours taking risks with more or less success. Everything is art & the way we dress is definitely a temporary piece. Part of this idea came because i wanted to keep a memory from these unpredictable outfits that hype peeps were talking about. From second hand, vintage high end, independant designers (& my own designs), big brands, covering all continents (thanks to bookings of Oof as DVJ) & the years 1796, 1877, 1952, 1966, 1970, 1977, 1982, 1990, 2001, 2009... Any comment welcome.


French version :

Encore un blog de mode? Oui mais pour homme et sans se prendre au sérieux, ce qui est peu commun. Sur la manière dont je m'habille et l'histoire des habits portés. Tous les matins je passe 20 minutes à tenter de coordonner les couleurs avec plus ou moins de succès. Tout est art, la manière dont nous nous habillons devient une oeuvre éphémère. L'idée m'est venue de garder une mémoire de ces tenues improbables qui font jazzer les milieux "autorisés". Des fringues d'occasion, vintage de luxe, créateurs indépendants et mes créations personnelles aux grosses marques, couvrant tous les continents (merci aux bookings de DVJ Oof) et les années 1796, 1877, 1952, 1966, 1970, 1977, 1982, 1990, 2001, 2009... Commentaires bienvenus!
