Heren Van Koster

ABOUT DE HEREN VAN KOSTER These men are sons of thunder. Heren van Koster are rude butterflies. Gorgeously dirty butterflies. They will wear mismatched socks within their boots, often with holes in them. 足 They have facial and body hair. After a sunny day a singlet print is visible on his body.

Without shame he will wear a stained pair of design trousers. The typed individual is not easily intimidated. It might even be impossible.

ROOSMARIJN KOSTER Non-popular sub-cultures and clothes that have never been fashionable are inspiring to me.

I have a non-emotional view on the body and soul of men. To me a body is a cloths-hanger with a sex. Clothes simply need to have shape on their own. I drain the cargo of the concept away by using humour.

ABOUT EEN KLEREMANS An s outline forms the foundation of this collection. Synthetic fabrics give the collection an ordinary look while the rich and technological fabrics/furniture will make it a modern and new collection. There will be volume on the shoulder blades and knees but a tight fit on the back of the legs and the chest. The wearer gets a new posture. The conflict or cooperation between the body and the cloths will generate tension. The knowledge that there 足 is a totally different body underneath the clothing is sexy. Volume and tightness will be created by systems and classic techniques.

KARBONADEPARADE

~EAT ME, DRINK ME+AMORE,AMORE~.

This collection is a clash between the iconic artists Andre Hazes and

Marilyn Manson. There is a lot going

on with the silhouettes and materials.

These two gentlemen are being (mis)

used regarding their style. Both men

are transparent; will we eat or starve?

Their silhouettes play a leading role.

Muscles are under influence of gravity and flexible cloths and ultimately

become fat. An excess of cloth gives new shape; to imagine what happens

underneath these clothes can only turn out to sexy thoughts.

PANTYDANCE

This is a collection that manipulates the shape and silhouette visible and

invisible. To decrease the possible rag shapes, details are added. Not mother

nature but me who decides their outward.

The panty will give shape to whatever

is worn underneath. Tights will achieve the tight silhouettes.

‘Pantydance’ is a fabric treatment,

silhouette shaper and colour manipulator all in one.

TESTOSTERONE MACHINE 2.3 INCHES

At first sight this unconventional boot

gives a striking feel. But won’t ­ outshine the wearer and his personality. He’s not

easily intimidated. The square and ­ layered heel indicates the architectural ­ approach during the long design process. These boots will make men taller; which is

always a good thing. A heel will ­ elevate

them even further and puts these men even higher then they already are. These boots are made for walking, dancing, ­ sitting,

running; All day, every day. These boots can be worn with a synthetic outfit

and make sure tackiness doesn’t stand a chance. For Sacha.
