ROMAIN KREMER

I actually love Romain Kremer! Defiantly one of my favourite menswear designers, I admire the simplicity within the garments and the way he plays with the idea of masculinity. His placement of colour and texture is genius.



Featured in the current spring/summer 11 AnOther Magazine. Romain Kremer is displayed beside a series of other menswear designers styled by Robbie Spencer on a collaboration with artist Maurizio Anzeri and photographer Richard Burbridge. The trio aimed to "create something elegant and timeless with each look but with a juxtaposition of modernity and youth” by reinterpreting abstract shapes within Garments. Once the shots were taken they were handed over to artist Maurizio Anzeri to embroider over, his embroidery techniques are fascinating creating bold and geometric shapes introducing a 3D concept to the photos. I love his approach to modernising embroidery as it is something i am including in my own graduate collection by embroidering with raffia and other objects and placing on top of machine embroidery to create vivid textures within garments.
