no words.

edit:

Dear designers at helmut lang,
Too bad the Man made giant phalluses out of his shredded archives.
You wouldnt have to browse this forum or look at Rick Owens for 'inspiration'.
Please refer to these photos for future collections.

Cordially,

SISSY

I still can't believe this was designed 14 years ago.

Such a stunning collection - I remember Cathy Horyn's review of the New York shows that season, and her feeling that Lang was the only designer who'd really confronted the idea of the millennium as a gateway into the future.

Interesting also how Lang's archive-shredding has brought so many to re-examine the earlier years - myself included. Have been going back through the collections for a piece I've been writing - the photographic records get amazingly fragmentary after a while, and disappear completely for the years between 1977 and 1988.
