Libertine-Libertine Autumn/Winter 2010
February 3rd 10, 13:20
Libertine-Libertine present its Autumn/Winter 2010 collection. The Danish label founded just last year, have created a campaign and lookbook in collaboration with photographer Sacha Maric & the young british artist Tom Gottelier.
First conceptualised in 2009, the goal was to show passion & drive in a playful universe with the side theme; how to make easy tasks hard for your self…it takes a wheel barrow full of wood to roll out a simple red carpet, the unbrella chair to keep dry instead of standing under a roof, a fully ignited jet pack to create the slightest movement & the latter to nowhere speaks for itself.
For all the different contraptions only recycled and/or gathered materials were used. Hundreds of pallets and thousands of screws met their faith in the process of making the wooden patch work for the different inventions.
The project will resurrect in real life during selected events in August 2010. Take a look at the collection and project.

What’s the best thing to come out of 2009 menswear trends? Casualness.
What’s the must have item for any man in 2010? Any person – a pair of proper shoes. You’re on your feet every single day! Invest in good footwear or at least a good insole. It helps a lot!
What’s your favourite thing about where you live? Apart from my friends the fact that Berlin keeps you young; it has an incredible energy which doesn’t seem to fade…
