This is Horst in full blow. Isn't my street parade outfit heart-stopping?

Silver Foil Fight



Mihara Yasuhiro Spring/Summer 2010 vs. Silver curtain

As Mariah sings, I am so obsessed. Obsessed with finding analogue images in my mind. All the time. A wafting matter of memories, impressions and connotations. It this ingenuity or insanity?

Workout




Bodily activities enhance physical fitness and overall health. They are performed for many different reasons.

Posture




Anna-Sara Dåvik Spring/Summer 2010

Exaggerated monster women armed with 10 meter legs, black garbage bags and bricks. Totally elegant and captivating. Hold your breath and hide under their wafting robes. Smell their tulip based perfumes and close your eyes.

Cardialgia




This love is like dancing on roses. Roses made of steel with poisoned thorns.

Hellfire




Stephanie Adshead Central Saint Martins BA Graduate 2009

While everyone is so in love with Christopher Kane's atomic prints for his Resort Collection, I can warmly recommend Stephanie Adshead's interpretation of hot womenswear. And I wouldn't say ,No' to one of these trousers.

This statue has been waiting for Horst to come. Flux impressions of my everyday life. Images that haunt me, unintentionally.

Investigation

A random click on my bookmarks revealing random beauty. Spaces of blurred grey created by intuitive virtuosity.

Stellar Vault




Laitinen Spring/Summer 2010

This is a sad boy's world. A monocular vision espying unrivalled beauty. Composed of inimitability and covetousness. His heart is struck by superbly constructed knitwear, consistently elaborate prints and highly impressive leather pieces. The boy breaks down.

Bleach




Photos Steeve Beckouet

As I feel it is time to bleach my hair soon again, these backstage shots from Romain Kremer are a true memorial. White-eyelash-visions of a far future.

I'm A Kitten Lover XXI

Kitten Love in fullest opulence. Extreme tackiness dissolving into pure beauty. Layers of leopard, tiger and kitten representing the zoology of animal prints in danger of extinction.

Blonde Wig Fight



Lanvin Spring/Summer 2010 vs. Wigs

It appears to me Claude Montana himself was the main inspiration behind the latest Lanvin collection. And I always admired the 80s fake chic. I am living it myself, haha.

The Brave






Qasimi Spring/Summer 2010

We keep it sparkling. Stills from the beautiful film by Mariano Vivanco. Indulging in ancient mythology and gladiator eroticism. Very cliché, very appealing to someone who loves cropped, sheer and the martial.

Veil



Givenchy Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2009

I think I am in love with the golden nose accessory. Opulence and orientalism created a very intriguing almost frightening scenario that leaves me a wee bit jinxed. And I warn you, don't look these creatures in the eye...

Basic Instinct



Shirt Hernández Cornet

As the Hernández Cornet Fall/Winter collection entitled 9 seeks inspiration from cross-dressing and bi-gender, I was planning to photobooth myself in high-heels. But: I don't have any high-heels. So I decided to just leave away the bottoms and give it a dressy feel.

Virtue



Julie Eilenberger UDK Berlin Graduate Show 2009

Definitely my glittering highlight from Berlin Fashion Week. Futuristic yet ancient goddesses representing accuracy and seduction, the virtues of a new era.

Powdered Noses




Photos Guy Bourdin

Extreme angles and surreal close-ups. Sharp light and high-heels. Naked bodies and absurd scenarios. Pubic hair and sausages. Ladies and gentlemen: Guy Bourdin.

Ida Sjöstedt Spring/Summer 2010 vs. Jochen Klein

Dear Ida,
when we were watching your runway video again, I came across a similarity of a dress and an image I had saved in my head. A rose is still a rose.
