Everybody makes it to NY. Eventually.
.
I generally like to stay away from putting up photos of designers,
though I admit a soft spot for particularly poignant moments.
Below, Helmut Lang photographed by friend and regular collaborator, Elfie Semotan,
shortly after his move to NYC.
"Coming to New York is a big experience. It activated an entirely different part of my brain . It's liberating
because . . . I tend to be quite emotional. Here I feel like a weight has been lifted." – Helmut Lang

A great self-portrait. Thanks for posting it, ittalidaa.

Believe it. . In 1996, to mark the 100th anniversary of their LV monogram,
the house tapped on the shoulders of seven designers it considered "at the forefront of fashion"
and asked them to put their spin on a Vuitton piece as part of a limited-edition centennial collection.
One of those shoulders was Helmut Lang's, who tricked out a square-shaped vanity trunk into a DJ case.
the full spread
Chrissie Hynde was given a case, as were Grandmaster Flash, Courtney Love, and Johnny Depp.
Apparently, John Travolta was given one, too, defying all logic in the selection process.
Full post HERE
I had a WTF moment when I saw it so thanks to interest1 for the post that cleared it up.

You're welcome.
It'll be interesting to see what it goes for, considering I pulled my info off of a luxury goods site specializing in
pre-owned gotta-have-its, where the same piece was going for 15K.
Here's a screenshot from back in June, when I first saw it. No idea if it ever sold.
