Gareth Pugh

By Regina Libian (inaya404) Mr. Pugh has announced he will be popping his cherry and showing a full menswear collection in Paris this upcoming Fall / Winter 2009 Fashion Week. He has integrated menswear into his predominantly womenswear collections many times and his pieces sell well amongst males as well as females in the buyer's market, but the prospect of an entire menswear show is very exciting. After the story he told with his womenswear debut in Paris just a few months ago, there is much to look forward to indeed. It must be quite a transition for him, I would imagine. I always sort of am perplexed at the demands of designers who show each season... it seems there is no break or time to relax. Particularly when the designer has gender separate lines, but I suppose that's neit...   [read the full post]

And Gareth is there! It's Mr. Pugh's first venture into the world that is Paris Fashion Week and oh my, what a first impression to make. Pugh, who's known for his boundary-pushing designs and unmistakable exaggerated silhouettes, absolutely WORKED the first day of PFW. First and foremost, he has proved in a large way that he does indeed have the ability to edit and restrain some of the theatrics, but most important - this collection is still undoubtedly his aesthetic. He's taken some of the muscle out of the theatrics and put it into the detailing and what a fantastic shift it is.

By Regina Libian (inaya404) 25 October 2008 @ 10:06 pm Katsuhide Morimoto for Undercover   Jun Takahashi chose photographer Katsuhide Morimoto to depict the story of the Grace collection and what a job he did. I love these photos so much. They are, of course, the photography that lined the walls of the otherwise completely sterile showroom for Undercover's S/S 09 collection. I really love the mood to them, it is so apparent and is conveyed so well. These photos as well as possibly more, are said to be later released as a book, which is said to be published later in the year. I just had to post the full photos here as they were small in the pics of the collection itself. Please click them for larger photos. :) Tags: jun takahashi, s/s 09, undercover   Leave a comment   24 October 2008 @...   [read the full post]
