Her name was Lucy, & I love her

So, where did Rei Kawakubo mens wear

collection for Comme des Garcon got inspired by?

To see full collection click here.

The mood of the 50's, its the big influence for Fall 2010,

from Karl Lagerfeld to Marc Jacob, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.

Everyone is cheering the style and the glamour of the 50's.

This is Lucy, I love her!

I learnt my 50's fashion from watching 'I love Lucy'!

Maybe Karl & Marc is watching Lucy too

while sketching for ideas....

Who knows?

Prep up for Fall, with full circular skirts & dresses.

Oh well, watch Lucy as she'll teach you

how to make a 'Mink T-shirt'!

Comme des Garcon dark humor not amusing at all

Comme des Garcon

Menswear Spring/Summer 2011

I am a huge fan of Rei Kawakubo.

However, this is too much for me to handle.

 From the full skirt which was inspired from the 50's,

(but then again men don't wear skirt back then and now)

the full dresses and especially the skull imagery/prints.

This collection evoked an uneasy feeling for me,

I feel so down and almost depressed which

could categorized me as an 'EMO'.

Maybe thats what Rei wants to project.

Neo-Emo?

Glammed up Skaterboys?

Thats totally doesn't sound right.

Maybe it's a dash of disappointed in my heart.

Nothing else.

Last of Alexander McQueen's mens collection,

 he beautified skulls and created it into amazing tapestry and wallpaper.

The collection was amazingly brilliant because of the skulls spectacular visual. 

It was signed and sealed, McQueen.

 McQueen marked his last menswear(click here if you wish to view)

 as if to anyone who could

challenge his creations especially the Skulls.

Rei Kawakubo's skulls?

Could be drawn from the movie 'SCREAM'.

Gone were the days were Comme des Garcon

was truly Avant-Garde and Edgy.

That was in the early 80's and 90's.
