QUEST: Which S/S 2010 Trends Best Translate to the Streets?

This season, we’ve seen everything from the one legged pant look, courtesy of Bernhard Willhelm, to the multi layered look from Rodarte and tons of leather via Gareth Pugh and many more…what do you think we’ll see on the streets of NY?

SHOP Bernhard Willhelm | Naked Ladies Dress $158
I just came across this hilarious Bernhard Willhelm orgy print dress on IS MENTAL, but part of me wonders if you could get arrested for public indecency if worn in public. Loving the creepy lurk. Oh, Bernhard, you never cease to amaze me.

TRENDSPARK: Ugly Male Models
**WARNING** If you have an intolerance for shallow observations or you recently modeled in Men’s Spring 2010 Fashion Week, don’t read this.
The end of June and beginning of July are of importance to me for one reason: men’s fashion week. Yeah,the tailored suits and spring apparel are nice, but what I really look forward to is the hours I spend cooing over drop dead gorgeous models. The chiseled jaw. The supple lips. The piercing eyes. I’m like a kid in a candy-store!
But these past two weeks have been less than enjoyable for my model addiction. Is it just me, or are designers and bookers seriously skimping on the man candy this season? What once was a Cole, Ash, Luke and Taylor dominated field is now pillaged with some of world’s less fortunate looking creatures. Is there some sort of repulsive man trend I’m missing the boat on here?
Proceed in clawing your eyes out.

Bernhard Willhelm Menswear Spring 2010

Is this is a joke!?!?! Cousin IT is not a fashion inspiration!!!
V.ROM: Fall 2009 Collection

V.ROM is a breathe of fresh air in this world of conservative recession fashions. The collection features some of the best styling I’ve seen in awhile too. Boasting a wide variety of colors and textures, the Fall 2009 collection appears to me as a mix between a Libertine and Bernhard Wilhelm. I love the looks!

Bernhard Willhelm “Nils Sture” High Top Sneakers

These ‘Nils Sture’ hi tops from Bernhard Willhelm are an oki-ni.com UK exclusive and are super cool. They sort of resemble moccasins, but have awesome detailing around the sole.
Available in either black leather or off-white suede, these are available in strictly limited numbers.
Bernhard Willhelm: Fall 2009 Collection

You know for as crazy and rediculous as Bernhard Willhelm is, I am always 100% entertained by what he offers up year after year. This Fall’s collection is inspired by old school skiing. The collection has some crazy styling, but as a whole I think there are plenty of pieces in the collection that are pefectly wearable. I love the boots featured above (not the ski boots). The collection is everything we have come expect from Mr. Willhelm. Loves it!

Trendspark: Hotdogs?

Bernhard Willhelm Spring 2009

Bernhard Willhelm Spring 2009


Or should I say haute dog? However you say it, there really is a strange abundance of hotdog paraphernalia out there. Necklaces, shoes, bags, wallets, sunglasses, tees and pins are just some of accessories that sport the ballpark snack. If you ask me, a hotdog belongs in your stomach, not around your neck where the thousands of people who pass you on the street peg you as the nympho with a dangling phallic symbol.
If you must follow the trend, check out some more accessories at Trend de la Creme.
From Our Archives: Bernhard Willhelm’s Men in Tights
A controversial show indeed…Bernhard Willhelm presented his Fall 08 collection via film. That’s right, an 18 minute film about men in spandex, moving their leg pretending to be ballerinas, and doing other forms of ‘Art’.
Read the rest here.
Camper Together: More Than Smores, Tents and Hiking Boots.




If you were just as intrigued by the Bernhard Willhelm’s pretzel sandals seen in his s/s 2009 collection as I was, let it be known that he didn’t do it alone! No, Auntie Anne from your local mall didn’t help him out, but Camper, a Spanish roots shoe company joined Willhelm in a collaboration called Camper Together. The two companies are set to release sandals, clogs and slippers for men and women come spring of 2009.
Thanks Is-Mental!
Trendspark: Drop It Like It’s Hot!
Neck lines are draping and falling people, and Oak has items to prove it. I love the idea of a draping collar type look. It is a great way to cut the cost of a scarf, keep you warm and draw attention to your face. Drop necks are a cool new way to change up your look, without changing your personal style. I’ve seen more and more popping up in collections, and could be stealing some of the popularity from a cardigan or V-neck pullover. I’m hoping to get my hands on one ASAP! If you’re looking to spend some cash on either of the sweaters above head over to either Oak location, or click here to head over to their web store.

FASHION PORN: Benhard Willhelm Shot by Lina Scheynius for AnotherMan
Just the kind of dirty I enjoy in my day. These shots by Pphotographer Lina Scheynius blur the lines between fashion and pornography. Shot for the Autumn/Winter 2008 issue of AnotherMan they feature Belgian designer Bernhard Willhelm’s entire fall collection.
Thanks to Cultures in Between for spotting the shots.
Trend Spark: Moustaches
I’m not exactly sure if I would go as far as painting a moustache on my face prior to a night on the town, but there is something very intriguing about the moustache trend. Recently, models on the runway, in fashion spreads and editorials have been flaunting little black moustaches. If you ask me, I think the reason behind this is to extract the subtle masculine features from certain garments. The trend has even gone as far as inspiring moustache parties and this years first Moustache Fashion Week. Okay, the fake stick on moustaches are awfully tacky, but I’m loving the painted little French curls on the runway and in magazines! But keep it at that…I don’t know if I can handle fake beards or side-burns…
Thanks Trend de la Creme!
I’m On it: Bernhard Willhelm & Linda Farrow’s Sunglasses


Since I just wrote an article on how much I hate nerdy glasses, I figured I would find a cool pair and push them as a trend for the masses. So, hope you guys like these, cuz I think they are pretty cool. And also, I got a lot of hate mail for my review of Bernhard’s latest collection, so I’m repenting and giving him some love.
Bernhard Willhelm & Uslu Airlines NailPolish
Bernhard Willhelm and Uslu Airlines teamed up to create nailpolish. And since gold will be the hot color for Fall, I am suggesting this one, although $36 is a lot for a tube of nailpolish. It is now available at non other than Oak NYC and comes in the following colors:
gold metallic: KNO knokke/het zoute (Belgium)
red metallic: JPD heliport de paris (france)
blue metallic: GWW berlin royal air force gatow (germany)
white: KTT kittila (finland)
beige: WAW warsaw frederic chopin (Poland)
grey: SBT san bernadino airport (USA)
