Something very important happened recently in the world of fashion. I'm talking about Saint Laurent Spring Menswear.
These are just a few of my favorite looks from the show. In all, the whole thing was absolutely wonderful; the use of stripes, the colors, the whole rockabilly vibe. In general there is nothing I love more than a man in a fitted suit. But mix that with stripes and rock and roll and you've got a collection that I could only dream about.
However even with all these wonderful combinations, that is not the reason I'm freaking out over this collection. The reason I'm so excited is because of two of the models used in the show: Fletcher and Wyatt Shears.
Fletcher and Wyatt are twins from Orange County that make up this wonderful punk band that I've recently become obsessed with called The Garden. It's already known that Heidi Slimane loves to work with musicians; for example he's used Marilyn Manson in some of his ad campaigns before. Not only that but he's used Fletcher and Wyatt to model before.
Now lets completely ignore the fact that they walked in this show and talk about how great The Garden is on it's own. The Garden is possibly the closest thing we can get today to an authentic punk band.
Here are a few of my favorites :
Are you obsessed yet? At least over the fact that Fletcher wears women's clothes and lipstick? Because you should be. So you got the coolness of this band and the fact that they modeled for YSL, I think my obsession is understandable.
Wonderful post! I agree with everything; I love how you're able to articulate my obsession(s) so well.
