Based on that i am asking if a designer has to make clothing or can he be focused on shoes.
Anyways forget it...

Well, if he wants to be a shoe designer, sure he can concentrate on shoes. But that's a whole different story, a far more narrow one than you can tell with a full clothing line. Few people cared about Paul Harnden when he was just making shoes. Louboutin will never be Galliano. And so on.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

isn't the point that the story is... a non-story?
cumulative experience = diffuse, neutral design
analytic = impersonal, non-author (non 'designer')
eschewing decoration = function>
archetypes = emphasis on craft (non 'design')
organic = same point re. carpe+. 'second skin' as people often stated
degradation/ attrition not argued = decadence
designs with one foot in the past and one in the future to take on a sort of neutrality. highly polished but meant to be worn through. decadent but without decoration. these strike me as intentional paradoxes, absurdity or something. they don't add up to tell a tale - and why is that necessary?
--
trying to frame this stuff into the work of the 'artist designer', with a narrative and all that other fodder for fashion criticism doesn't make sense.
is it because...
1. approbation as a "serious designer" is good?
2. the number of people interested = value?
in both of these cases it might be true, but aren't these industry criticisms? they don't discuss the non/story in that poster up there.
--
and anyway, despite carpe's strong aesthetic sensibility, was that really the story? didn't it share the same 'paradoxical' design'? if you could respect carpe, mmoria strikes me as the logical continuation and can be viewed broadly as the same project.

You can have a look here:
In Munich at Hide there has been the exhibition in April 2016.
Holger has quite a few shoes to look at if you want to see them in person:
Campbell from Darklands has some too.
Hope this answers your question.
Looking forward to see the "other project" in Feb 2017.
