Das Leben am Haverkamp

Gino Anthonisse

Das Leben am Haverkamp, a collective of four fashion designers is currently one of the most exciting (fashion related) initiatives in the Netherlands. With their strong presentations, innovative designs and performative presentations they managed to create a relevant buzz in the scene.

Anouk van Klaveren (1991), Christa van der Meer (1988), Dewi Bekker (1990) and Gino Anthonisse (1988) – joined forces and formed the collective Das Leben am Haverkamp after graduating from the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague. Their unconventional approach to design and fashion results in thought-provoking, unpolished work, often inspired by alter egos, boyhood and floral curtains. New, uncharted territory is explored during the inventive performances and presentations of Das Leben am Haverkamp. All the members have their individual label, and present it collectively.

Études Fall/Winter 2017

Études Fall/Winter 2017 

 “Lackadaisical, the quiet ennui of the everyday produces its own soft cinema.” It’s this in-between time that Études considers for Fall/Winter 2017-18, traversing domestic stories of proximity and intimate connection. The morning after the night before. Layered with the earthen palette of Elizabeth Peyton’s seminal portraits, the collection reflects on the cycles and ablutions in the daily life of a city.

FW17 collection includes a trilogy of artistic partnerships, each complementing the collection’s theme through an alternate perspective. Courtesy of American artist Matthew Chambers, a darkly mottled floral motif is scaled up and down: printed and knitted, it reappears throughout the collection. Elsewhere a 1992 still life gouache depicting cigarettes and Coca Cola by Dike Blair is printed across silk shirts and a padded blouson, embodying a sense of household familiarity. Finally, the self-made graphics of Gus Van Sant’s first film ‘Mala Noche’ (1985) are repeated on a single souvenir sweatshirt, bringing the season’s languorous mood full circle.

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

Walter Van Beirendonck FW 2017

 

 Walter Van Beirendonck presented his FW 2017 colletion 'ZWART' at Paris Fashion Week. On the first sight the collections stands out with the cartoonesque big hands, taking the extreme long sleeves trend to another dimension by adding oversized gloves to the sleeves.
The show featured a performance by Seida Pass, a drumming group of dressed-up in folk costumes from the Austrian region of Tyrol. Since 1999 they've been perpetuating a local tradition called Percht, a procession that takes place in the winter, and whose aim is to chase away evil winter ghosts.Inspired by shamanism, Walter Van Beirendonck names the collection Zwart, which is Dutch for black. This collection expresses the reflection on the current state of the world, but as always with a playful and positive twist that is significant for the designer.
