Images from their website, which appears to have recently updated
with all of their work going back into the early 90s. One-to-two images
picked from most of the collections. This is partially an excuse to
host these images on imageshack to have them in case something should
ever happen to the BLESS site, as well as just be a (not particularly
brief) preview of their work. Please excuse the fact that I'm slightly obsessive-compulsive and tend to enjoy compiling things, it's an unfortunate habit.

1997 - Set
Many parts of the body are
involved, especially the face which is usually treated individually
from the rest of the body. It is an experimentation in its way of
combining various materials, colors, shapes and purposes.
It?s main objective is to push the consumer to express himself
in a very personal and creative manner.
In addition to being an accessory as were all the previous products,
this set is the perfect synthesis of Bless?s suggestions to
making modern day clothing evolve.
Bless says: The set can be worn on all side of the body in whatever
way. Try, can't error!
1999 - Bags
1998 - Customizable Footwear
1999 - Merchandising
BLESS N° 09 is more of a MERCHANDISING project than a
fashion collection. The newly developed FAN-ITEMS are made
to show their owners as like-minded persons / fans / searchers
for a different kind of value, besides a specific shape and
colour. Thus the creation of an intentional UNISIZE basic
shaped clothstyle (sweatshirts, t-shirts, polo shirts all
in xl size, and jeans) which means a chance for everybodyshape
- and allows easy access to people in a UNISEX (female, male,
thing) and UNIAGE (first - last days) spirit, ignoring stereotypical
taste, social classifications, dressing habits and usual shape
preferences. Since it?s not about the clothes themselves
but their values they portray (through their speaking front
and quiet back), they can be worn at any kind of occasions
( FOR PRESENTATIONS) to demonstrate a personal attitude or
to give a fashionable statement or not.

2004 - The Bringer
Some germans use the term ?the bringer? in a moment of spontaneous
enthusiasm either in response to- or to describe a thing that is
personally useful. In the Blesswearers eyes all personal clothing needs
can be satisfied: almost every look is devisable in 1-6 pieces which
can be used separately as a light casual wear (a jacket, a scarf, a
hood, shoes...) or as a more complex omnipresent piece (jacket, scarf,
hood and shoes, all connected in one piece). The final look can include
diverse clothing concepts, such as elegant fabrics (silk and leather
scarfs), special items (expander shoes) and sporty looks (cotton
jackets and hoods).
