TÔ LONG-NAM

PHEW.
My summer can start right now. Yes please!
And that means I will be able to update more frequently -I hope at least once every day- so stay tuned!

As a starter, I present to you TÔ Long-Nam: born in Vietnam, raised in Munich and now living in Paris. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Berlin in Fashion-Design, moved to Paris, did some styling, started designing again for the Lanvin (!) mens collection and even competed in the 2006 Hyères Festival!
I can show you a few pictures of his Fall-Winter 2009-10 collection. Its all about structured jackets, very very architectural. The jackets look great, but personally I'd wear them with some nice dresses or skirts (black & white only, keep it simple people!) to make them less "I'm a business woman" - oh and PS, the photography is great too ;)


Very nice details on the back of this jacket. The patterns are actually inspired by the human anatomy, muscles to be exact! I like that the design isn't too overwhelming since it's black on black.


Ah yes, a smoking jacket (as in Le Smoking) , can I say wardrobe basic? I need one like this.
