fucked up name, huh?

You know who else is a fucking badass? Haider Ackermann, who is evidently Colombian (glad I didn't bet money on that one). Some of his pieces are very Rick Owens, but judging from the prices of his work on LuisaViaRoma, not any cheaper. Le sigh.

There is something so perfect about that look on the right - loads of asymmetrical layers and the bit of sheer skirt hanging down over the leather pants? Delicious.

Similar, but not identical by any means.

Spring/Summer 2004

I love these silk pants, especially the ones on the left. Let's call them bondage pants, shall we? Even though they (thankfully) bear no resemblance to the bondage pants sold by HotTopic. So, maybe I do want to wear a little color this spring.

Spring/Summer 2008

Or maybe just all-white. I really do need some kind of white blazer. There is something about wearing all-white ensembles that is so elegant. Largely because it signifies an ability to not spill on yourself for an extended period of time.
