I was privileged to be invited to the JantaminiauHaute Couture Fall Winter 2012-2013 show in Paris over the Haute Couture Collections period in July. What an incredible show it was. Jan's work was Jaw Dropping amazing and if you thought last years show was spectacular, this year was beyond believable.  His sense of design, architecture and  understanding of textile structural integrity is uncanny.

Music and art seem to go hand with avant-garde designer Mihara Yasuhiro. Last year he featured "Samurai" guitarist Miyavi as a backdrop to his Fall & Winter 2012 collection. This year, a painter whimsically played to Mihara Yasuhiro's color palette that reminded one of a mix of resort gone utilitarian. With deep rich cerulean blues, corals and khakis grounded with dark details in black, Yasuhiro's designs are relaxed but still edgy. Mandarin collared jackets, suits contrasted with leather, shor

KRISVANASSCHE Spring Summer 2013 show

 NUMERO 16 / SPRING-SUMMER 2013

 What item of clothing other than the T-shirt holds such an essential place in a wardrobe of a man, whatever his age, nationality, job, style, country or favourite hobby? No other! From this observation, Kris Van Assche has created a 2013 Spring-Summer collection that plays with the status of this basic item.
