LE FREAK C'EST CHIC, A/W 2004/2005 (part 1) by Arkadius

The repetitive present and inaccessible past -"Le Freak, C'est Chic" is the notion of the newest prêt-a-porter Autumn/Winter 2004/2005 collection of Arkadius.

Arkadius has always been dissatisfied with the way that fashion images concentrate on young people to the virtual exclusion of the old. He is struck by the inner sense of joy and style when he sees people in their sixties and older who dress up for an occasion or just to walk in the streets. He also notes that a part of this style is often to include a very ordinary object as part of their style.

In the collection "Le Freak C'est Chic" Arkadius reffers to the glamour and chic of the classic elegance that reflects itself  in a crooked looking glass of  the weird present. The very feminine, sexy look of his new designs is touched by artistic odd maneuver. The collection is intellectualy eclectic in forms, materials and colors.

The collection theme has been inspired by the theatre play "Chairs" by Eugene Ionesco-one of the biggest French authors.

Terrible music, pretentious video description given on the right.

Look at the way they walk. Who taught them how to walk in such an unnatural fashion. Is that supposed to look "sexy"? And the hoop skirt dress??? It'd be hard to show up at the opera with that on (unless you were in it).

Eugene Ionesco lived in France, but he was one of the biggest Romanian authors.

una pasarela sin sabor! sin emocion, muy monotona, aunque se perciba el objeto del evento: la ropa, debiera  haber mas vida dentro de ella.
