Jeans are no longer "basics", and the embroidered, printed, treated styles collection stylist Remco de Nijs and women's collection designer Rebekka Bach presented are a perfect case in point. For the men, the styles translated into suits, and the most ubiquitous silhouette of the collection -- long fly, baggy seat, tapered bottom -- while for the ladies, these denim treatments were represented in denim-embroidered trenchcoats (as pictured above), sharp belted coat dresses, body suits, worked-over vests, and lace-effect jackets. Softening the raw denim looks were printed silks (dresses for the ladies, shirts and ties for the guys). I'm not fully convinced of the stovepipe a.k.a. Hammer pant (or short!), but I am inspired by the infinite denim incarnations and the infinite ways to wear it. I won't look at my skinny jeans the same way again.
“Well, I, uh - I read in The New York Times this week that I'm an ice queen, I'm the Sun King, I'm an alien fleeing from District 9 and I'm a dominatrix. So I reckon that makes me a lukewarm royalty with a whip from outer space.”
