Designer Profile: Miguel Adrover



Born in Majorca, Spain, in 1965, Miguel decided to settle in NYC in 1991. 
After opening Horn, a fashion store located in the East Village, where he showcased the talents of designers such as Alexander McQueen, he decided to take up designing himself.

He was so successful that in 2000 he was nominated for "designer of the year" by Vogue. 
His style is inspired by the conflicting social classes and the diversity of cultures

He relocated back in Majorca in 2004. His most iconic pieces are on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Metropolitan Museum in New York, Washington's Bellevue Museum, and the Queen Sophia in Madrid. 

These are some pieces from his past collections, which display Adrover's very unique style.

Yohji's Skirts Remembered



Lynn and Horst (http://lynnandhorst.blogspot.com) were recently reflecting on how often does Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto include skirts in his menswear collection. 

As a matter of fact, they recollected, in his Spring/ Summer 2004 pants were entirely absent.
