RONALDO ARNALDO FW2010
He's in my top ten. You'd think its the restrained lines and the wearable silhouettes? Actually, it's the ingenious manipulation of the oh-so-overused traditional fabrics: pina and abaca. Reworked, tweaked, draped and constructed to create these refreshingly new--architectural silhouettes. I was sort of worried that he might border on the cliche when he shared to me that he was working with organic materials a few months before. But boy was i wrong. This is directional and classic at the same time, and so very now.
LIKE WOW
w i r e d.
Listening to Delphic's Doubt as I was resizing these photos. Electronic music (awesome video!!) to go with the seriously cool sci-fi mutations of style.
The collection is untitled. I believe that for a suggestive and conceptual art/fashion, the audience must be the one gathering all the visual perception. Of course it’s our responsibility as a designer/artist to provide the core value of the collection: which is genetic expectations traversed with sci-fi direction. KERMIT TESORO
Despite the absence of a title we seem to have had great synchronicity in terms of materializing the concept without setting too many structural constraints and rules. The concept explored antiseptic and clinical aesthetics, anatomical alterations largely inspired by sci-fi themes of genetic splicing and human-robot hybrids. LEEROY NEW
