Not bad, but I am really missing the edge and rawness of previous collections. I do appreciate that with Goth, he really had pushed that button very far, so a new direction is not a surprise. But as I said with the BBS leggings... must we have the skirts?

So few men look good in skirts... it is not a new thing, they appear every few years or so..
as for being big in Japan, Mr Waits knows all about that!
But if you like them, fine. I just have never seen a man at his best in a skirt. But having said that perhaps I am missing out!!

Originally posted by Lane View PostPart of me shares diorowens concerns. Another UNDERWORLD; or Goth_ik would have been absolutely amazing. However, I don't see anything wrong with a designer exploring himself as long as the aesthetic is still intact, which I feel it is. I as well share the sentiment that I'm glad julius abandoned a lot of its military elements (temporarily? lol), because those I think are pretty overdone at least in my eyes. This is refreshing to me.still trapped in my juvenile state

Looking at the above comments reflecting on this Julius collection being a departure of sorts from the formula most have begun to associate with the label, it surprises me that no one has addressed that this presentation bears resemblance to the older Julius catalog; the proposed silhouettes are reminiscent of the early designs of Horikawa. The industrial 'aggression' that permeates Julius discussion is merely one half of the pie... the other being a meditation on zen buddhism. It's the contrast and dialectic tension between these two ideas which birth the mood of Julius.
Unfortunately, certain voices in this thread (and forum) seem intent on pigeonholing each designer into a certain 'aesthetic', perhaps attempting to compartmentalize their own perspective on dress. Calling something 'Rick' and dismissing it as derivative is uneducated and reveals a narrow mindedness that was less apparent until recent years on this forum. We are in danger of losing our intelligent discourse... we must educate ourselves with the past before we comment on the future.every man has inside himself a parasitic being who is acting not at all to his advantage

I love this label, and I love what they're doing. I appreciate their repurposing of the military surplus aesthetic, taking the urban survivalism associated with those clothes and pushing it as far as it can go. So what if it's been done by a lot of designers? The key for me is that no one else did it RIGHT. For my tastes, anyway. And isn't that what all of this fashion nonsense is about? Expressing yourself and your tastes?

well said Macro.
I was intending to say the same regarding earlier collections but apparently I did not. either way, to say that looks sans the ruggedness and decay is not Julius is simply untrue."AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."

People on here just like giving Tatsuro a hard time. Having handled quite a few Julius pieces I can say that it actually isn't anything like Rick (), or Ann, or whatever.
Julius as a label evolves with a slower pace, unlike some people (see Damir's AW11 fuck-up), and while it might seem repetitve at times, it's acutally refining what he does best.

skirt = layering piece

Case closed.
Aside from jersey, they were also cut in leather.
Re: if the trousers come in black: does the Pope shit in the Vatican?
