Kiko’s 'Krash' into the Kingdom!

One can safely assume that the ‘once-was’ ‘voomf’ the Hussein Chalayan’s, Margiela’s, Junya Watanabe’s and Rei Kawakubo’s had in the 1990s and early 2000s, has dwindled some time in the mid-to-late teens of the millennium. 

Some sort of reincarnation of the greats is a peripheral fantasy. One might think that their hollow hopes had slithered away much like their faith in humanity. But alas, there’s Kiko! 

Please take the time to ruminate over these perfectly dishevelled, lurching, wizardly-sleek and refined pieces hailed from Kiko Kostadinov’s SS22 menswear collection. Kiko has risen from supplicating to demanding attention. 

It’s heartwarming. It’s breakthrough-esque. My fingers are numb from zooming in. I want more, more and more. Thanks Mr. Kostadinov. 

But most importantly, thank you to the Fanning twins, whose signature designs have leapt off of Kostadinov’s womenswear (spearheaded by the Fanning's in their debut SS19 collection), and lurched into Kostadinov’s SS22 menswear collection.
