Fall 2011 Menswear

Menswear shows for fall/winter 2011 in Milan and Paris are over and I picked my favourite looks. It is also the first time that Acne did a runway show to present their menswear collection after last season's first runway show for their women's. I like how they break down the classic looks by adding a printed sweatshirt (Acne) or workwear jacket and beanie (Yigal Azrouël). Also love the contrasting socks (Lanvin) and that beautiful red coat (Raf Simons), which is such a bold statement. I probably missed quite some gems, so please let me know in the comments which were your favourite ones.

Bits And Bobs #56


Shirt by Chronicles Of Never, Sweater by Wood Wood, Varsity Jacket by Nike, Trousers by Topman, Vintage Shoes

Who would have thought that I included something from Nike in one of my Bits And Bobs entries, ever? But let me tell you, this jacket is not the only thing I regularly wear by Nike. Their line called Nike Sportswear has some very nice jackets. This stripped down version of this varsity jacket has a special nano coating, which makes it totally water-resistant and water just drops off. I also like how the jacket breaks down the very classic combination of shirt and sweater.

Tran Hin-Phu

As some of you probably know, I am currently studying at the University of Arts in Zurich at the photography department. I just finished my first semester, which included an exhibition of our work at the end of the semester. We get one theme every semester and in the end we have to come up with an idea and produce a work (loosely) based on that theme. This semester's theme was "dream, beauty and fun", which are synonyms for our consumer society. I made a photo series about Swiss fashion designer Tran Hin-Phu and followed him during the preparations for his fashion show at the Fashion Days Zurich 2010 back in November. I filmed a little walkthrough of the exhibition with everyone's work that you can watch here. The video below shows my work self-printed as a zine with the lovely help of Lisa Mettier.

Topshop SS11 Lookbook

You have probably seen this lookbook on every blog by now and I know it has been blogged to death but the more I looked at it the more I wanted to have it on mine too since it is just too good to not mention. I love the styling, the colours and I am really feeling this bohemian vibe. There were also some very nice minimal pieces and stylings in the lookbook but I didn't include them here, because they don't fit to these below.

Streetstyle Selection #10

What better way to start the new year than with some outfit inspirations. It was about time again for my Streetstyle Selections, because when I looked through my Google Reader folder it was packed with great streetstyle photos. So let's get inspired and now is also the right time to stock up on some essentials or other stuff, because most stores are having sale. You can see all my previous Streetstyle Selections at once here.
