FASHION AND WORDS: RICCARDO SLAVIK

GROOMING: XAVIER PEREZ

MODEL: ALBIN EKBLAD @ FASHION

On a more specific note, this shoot came about when Lorenzo Marcucci asked me to dress a model like me, to create a sort of mini-me fashion doll using my own personal archive, I started out with the idea of using 6 or 7 totally different looks using some of my favorite designers or pieces but in the end decided to create a few looks that represented my style but that were all tied together by a Goth-y Subcultural vibe, starting by a look I was wearing last week and which I reproduced faithfully, starting from the Raf Simons FW 2005 runway plastic coat, I ended up using some of my favorite pieces, like the safety-pin-cross Comme Des Garcons jacket and half-kilt pants, or the Helmut Lang asymmetrical tank top and cotton harness. It’s always interesting to dress someone else up as yourself because, much as you try, the final effect is always different, different people wear the same things in different ways, it’s not always a positive thing but it can also give new life to clothes you haven’t worn in a while. The A/W04-05 ‘Waves’ Cape Hoodie By Raf Simons is one of my favorite pieces (BTW one like it just sold at $1,600.00 on thesalvages.com and they even used an image I shot with Lorenzo years ago, so the cycle is really never ending), but I haven’t worn it in a while because it’s rather impractical, other pieces, like the Lang ones from 2004 are just not right for my body anymore, so the shoot also gave me a chance to recreate a younger, slimmer, different version of myself.

Creativity is a very personal journey and the way we relate to our clothes, the stories they tell us and we tell through them can be as deep or frivolous as life itself, I always say I wear my childhood traumas, and I’m not afraid to share them. Enjoy.

‘’ I love all that is Catholic imagery, but it has nothing to do with a sense of guilt or religious precepts, my love for the imagery stems from its beauty, I mean it’s one of the best testimonials of passion and beauty and art, some of the catholic iconography is incredibly beautiful…’ @faustopuglisi read our conversation for @collectibledry and see outtakes from our trip to Messina now online ( link in bio) images by @mattcolombo #checkitout models @myrteivaraya @srdjan_kutlesic mua @bartolinimatteo styled by me and Fausto, special thanks @lamaurina777 @antonellacorio #messina #strettodimessina #faustopuglisi #mattcolombo #collectibledry #italianfashion #fashion #sicilia (presso Town House Messina Paradiso) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByQ7my1or_X/?igshid=1n056of1lgjvt
