A ‘Sun Ruffle’ Shirt by Luis de Jesús for the Spring Equinox
I am a huge fan of Luis de Jesús' deconstructivist, surrealist fashion. He makes the kind of garments one simply puts on and presto—the look is complete.
Last Thursday I had the honor of walking the runway for his Lalyville Romance Redone collection, in the company of Benjamin, Steven, and other fine fellows—including Darke Attoms, whom I had the pleasure of meeting in person.
The clothes were magnificent and imaginative, easy to wear and daring—all my favorite combinations. A delicate balance of composition and color makes each piece a keepsake.
From the collection I now present—in a manner most appropriate for today’s vernal equinox—a ‘Sun Ruffle’ shirt, which I love with its pastel yellow ruffle neck trim and Luis’ trademark denim strips, which give the shirt great movement and fantasy.
The romance is always present in these garments, and yet this photo session by Goor Studio captures the quasi-military air that has pervaded my outfits lately, augmented by a customary straight-up stance.
