One of my favorite ready to wear fashion brands would have to be KTZ, & their A/W 2012/13 collection has to be one of my favorite collections from head designer Marjan Pejoski. Which is why I’ve decided to revisit the collection and dedicate the second installment of the Lost Soundtracks for a Runway Show mix series to this epic moment of the KTZ archives.. Continue reading

Lost Soundtracks for a Runway Show. Junya Watanabe S/S 2015.
At times when I listen to music I can envision runway shows.. maybe its the fact that music & fashion, in its artistic sense, has been my first loves since a child.. who knows. So I thought of the idea of compiling some of those tracks into 15 minute mixes/soundtracks and creating a series of these soundtracks that can be paired with past runway shows or simply used to create your own presentations in your mind.
LFW A/W 2015: Gareth Pugh & J.W. Anderson
Now that New York Fashion Week is over… London Fashion Week has begun, and already to a great adventurous brave start! London Fashion Week has always brought me joy as the designers presentations and creativity has been known to be at times “avant garde”, “cutting edge” and brimming over with forward thinking creativity! Two mainstays of LFW, Gareth Pugh and J.W. Anderson, recently presented their collections and did they not disappoint. While both collections channeled times of the past(and embraced high boots!) they both couldn’t be more daring and different… Continue reading
Kanye West X Adidas Originals Fall/Winter 2015
When I first saw an image of the Kanye West Adidas Originals collaboration I thought to myself, “this looks interesting and definitely like something I would wear”, yet then as I looked further into the collection I thought to myself “wait..most of this I could find at an army navy surplus store…” and to be honest that statement seems to be quite true….

KTZ F/W 2015/2016
One menswear line that rarely ever disappoints me is Marjan Pejoski’s KTZ and this season was certainly no exception!
This time around Marjan was inspired by one of my favorite films Stanley Kubrick’s Clockwork Orange, as well as Intuits, Lenin, Mao, Rubiks Cubes(?!) and well…. YES this collection has a mix of everything… Continue reading

Opening Ceremony A/W 2015
To be totally honest, menswear during fashion week usually bores me. I mean unless we’re talking about KTZ or any brand that dares to step outside the box and go other places besides the usual suits,ties,trouser,button up shirt mainstream route which seems to be a bit rare. But, fortunately I do love a color combination/striking print moment and thats definitely what Opening Ceremony gave recently for their A/W 15 collection. Continue reading
Margiela Artisinal Spring 2015 Couture: Hello Mr. Galliano~
As a young kid and into my teens and even into adulthood there have been two modern day designers I’ve always loved. Two who always brought art, drama, and showmanship along with craftsmenship to the fashion world. Those two would have to be Alexander McQueen and John Galliano!
McQueen unfortunately left this world much too soon&is no longer with us(RIP)… but Galliano is finally BACK!
And hes now apart of one of my favorite fashion houses, Maison Martin Margiela, and has taken reign as its Creative Director and recently premiered his first collection for the house for their couture ‘Artisinal’ collection and Mr. Galliano did NOT disappoint(at least not entirely)! Continue reading
