Rick Owens - Fall 2019

For the fall 2019 collection, Rick Owens collaborated with the 18-year-old Salvia, a Vogue-profiled Instagram star who typically applies her skills to herself, posting eccentric images with additional digital manipulation. Rick Owens models appeared with face-modification makeup created by Salvia presenting a dark and alternative idea of beauty.

Rick Owens - FW 2017 menswear

'Glitter' - Fall Winter 2017 menswear collection by Rick Owens

“I chose this name as a reaction to my last collection cycle that was based on physical and ecological decline, it was time to move forward.” “Glitter is a reference to a period in the 70’s that celebrated immortality, transgression, sexual liberation and flamboyant non-conformity.Almost like a grotesque trick, that rejects fear in difficult moments." Rick Owens about the collection

Rick Owens FW 2014 Menswear

Rick Owens sent an army of Gothic gangsters to the runway during Paris Fashion Week.
As said in his own words he presented a collection based on reflection of man's creation and rejection of authority via clothing.
The collection contains striking looks with headscarves, knee-high boots, tunics and heavy fabrics.
The collection color palette is
the designer’s own signature aesthetic of black, rusty brown, beige and dusty grey hues.

Rick Owens spring 2014 Vicious Womenswear

Rick Owens brought a stepping team onto his Paris runway show and stirred up the fashion scene.
The dancers, recruited from step teams from American college campuses,  rushed out in rows, with energy and mad facial expressions. Rick Owens use of both racial diversity and real full-figured women, instead of the usual size zero, to showcase his clothing is revolutionary in many ways. But also the stepping performance instead of traditional runway presentation is something that will survive all fashion trends.
I LIKE this. This is one of the reasons we do FASHIONCLASH.

Encounter with promising designer, Pedram Karimi

One of my favorite discoveries at FAT - Arts & Fashion Week Toronto is the Montreal based fashion designer, Pedram Karimi.
The collection that he presented at FAT was exactly how he described it 'minimal, structural, timeless, androgynous, modern, playful'...just beautiful!.

Devout/Divine -Fashion vs. Religion at MMH (Hasselt Fashion Museum)

Despite the winter weather I went to Hasselt last week to visit the exhibition ‘Devout/Divine- Fashion vs. Religion’ at the MMH ( Fashion Museum Hasselt). I’m really glad I got the chance to see it and that this is my last report of 2010. This was one of the most inspiring exhibitions of 2010.



If you have the chance to see it there is a possibility to visit the exhibition until the 9th of January 2011.


Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture s/s 2007

‘Devout/Divine- Fashion vs. Religion’ focuses on the relationship between contemporary fashion design and religion. More specifically, the integration and translation of religious symbolism in designs of the past decennia is emphasized.
With this expo, MMH focuses on a very contemporary theme. Religion and its visual appearance are much discussed these days. Many religious groups have distinct clothing politics that play an important role in their identity.

Recently, there has been a growing interest of designers for religion and the clothing and symbols that go along with it. However, the use of religion in fashion is not new. In the middle of the 20th century, leading fashion houses like Jeanne Lanvin, Madame Grès and Cristobal Balenciaga based several designs on religious garments, as a result of their religious education. In the ‘80s, jewellery with religious symbols was very popular, for example the queen of pop Madonna wore crosses as necklace and earrings.


‘Devout/Divine – Fashion vs. Religion’ is a compilation of creations of international designers and photographers. It examines how religion is integrated in their work. In the exhibition there are designs by designers like Jean Paul Gaultier, Rick Owens, Walter Van Beirendonck, Bernhard Willhelm, A.F. Vandevorst, Manish Arora, Raf Simons, Mada van Gaans, Cristobal Balenciaga, M+F Girbaud and more.
