this is the first time i am featuring dutch designer sjaak hullekes, but i have a feeling this will not be the last. here are a few preview pics from his upcoming fall winter 2010 collection, entitled "small town boy". the designer wanted to give this collection all the positive and nostalgic feelings a small town can bring, to escape from the daily reality and rush of the city.
i thought the construction and styling were impeccable. i am really excited about their choice of fabrics, very lush. i sense a tiny bit of bottega veneta's influences, but sjaak is his own man. the designer graduated in 2005 from an academy which counts lucas ossendrijver (lanvin) and viktor & rolf as alumnus.
i really really love the color palettes here. they will be presenting in milan too, i can't wait to see the clothes up close. sjaak hullekes is currently sold in the netherlands and japan. i make it my personal mission to get them to sell to the uk, or at least an online shop which delivers to the uk!

I know this is an unrelated comment, but can you do a post on underwear/boxers. I would love to know what your favorites are as there are so many brands to choose from. Oh would you PLEASE.
ReplyDeleteNow that's something I like!
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with the look in that first picture. That really is fantastic. I want those pieces.
ReplyDeletethat last blazer is a great colour. I'm having trouble defining it.....sort of like a pale rust, with a hint of salmon? whatever it is, its nice
