Yes.. I'm glad to update you all that I'm [desperately] trying to learn die Deutsche Sprache (the German language).
I know, I know, why complicate a life that's already quite complicated? Well, learning this particular foreign language has always been a deep fascination of mine. There's just so much to be respected about the rich culture and people of Germany (i see that with the boyf all the time, who is half-German.. and yes, he would be half the reason why i'm going through this. hehe) that I just want to take it all in. I am by no means an expert on the German experience, but I humbly submit myself to learning everything from zero (having to start from Das Alphabet and numbers, hehe) just to achieve this education that I always wanted.
So since we are staying on topic, just wanted to share some striking images of and from some of my favorite German figures in fashion and everything else.
German model Christina Kruse was (and still actually is) a serious favorite of mine when I first started appreciating fashion as a kid in the 90s. in my opinion, she is quite underappreciated given her caliber and panache. I wish she received more acclaim than she did, cuz' she is way up the bar for me.
She is currently an artist/photographer as well. This picture.. will seriously haunt my dreams, in a good way. Eerily striking.
And who doesn't love Der Herr Karl Lagerfeld? Not much to say there as everyone in this planet and beyond knows who he is. Ok, except that.. that is just about one of the most adorable bears and is completely in his liking!
His photography work for milliner Maison Michel was just breathtaking. Worth a check if you haven't done so.:)
And one can never forget Jil Sander, one of the most critically-acclaimed designers to emerge from the country. The woman basically defined understated elegance to the letter. Too bad the namesake company doesn't rightfully belong to her anymore.. but hey, her +J line with Uniqlo should be a pleasant surprise to all JS fans!
So that's that for tonight.. I guess I just wanted to share with you this new passion that I'm undertaking. Btw, before I wrap things up, Vielen dank (thanks a lot) to my 90 followers (!!!). It's been seriously overwhelming. Thanks again and much love to you all.
