Inspired by Chiaroscuro it definitely was a mix of light and dark. The collection was a melange of grays, whites, pelts, zipped trims and zipped tails on the jackets… with an infusion of Heather gray, camel, and gold… it was definitely a bit soft glam… and very wearable…
Seoul Fashion Week F/W 10/11 [Line or Circle] from martin-christopher harper on Vimeo.
Dominic’s Way by Song Hye Myung was a little theatrical… a really loose play on a modern version of the sophisticated korean punk/biker moment! The greatest thing in the show is the detailed leather trims and the cuts of the jackets. There are also glimpses of the boots in the video, which are a great new version of the studded boot… but hold on to the end!!! There is a dramatic studded gas mask… I think the house of GAGA is calling! get into the show… ladies and gents…

and please note that the seoul f/w loves smoke on the runway, hence the haze… and I am not a professional videographer, so we are hand held and getting you the looks as soon as we see them… Enjoy
Throup, has been a favorite for a while. He has the ability to work on such a clean palate. While he continually is pushing the boundaries of design, architecture and function. Throup always creates such a progressive statement either with his brand or avec’ un collabration… Aitor Throup is genius….not to mention he is hot!
AITOR THROUP
Throup’s “LEGS” retrospective is amazingly refreshing. He has taken his brand and minute fragment of American History/Culture and concurrently fused this exhibit .
A.T. worked in some form of thermal-cotton mesh and molded it down into what appears to be male figurines… We see an array of expression, but, the most stand out is that of his trouser Hommage.
Throup mimics the physical gestures of a New Orleans traditional funeral processions (marching band), and replicates the garnered procession with fashion armor. While his collection of trousers prevails the 5 steps of intense shrinkage, when wool is exposed to water..?. Amazing! Keep on marching to the beat of your own drum!
“Legs” at Galerie Jean-Luc & Takako Richard in Paris showcasing his trousers designed between 2004 and 2009…..
We found this collection very noteworthy a great look, in total… TOTALLY London! We always look forward to seeing new brands come to the fore-front… take a look!
WE HAD A BLAST AND WE WISH YOU WERE THERE…

Virginia Ferreira and Christian Neuman of BELLE SAUVAGE… Worked a very interesting collection with an array of prints, and some quiet amazing details. The collection was a little McQueen last season… I think it was the hair???? But in all, the collection is great! We love the SHOES!!!!
