A Kind Of Guise Fall/Winter 2012 Lookbook

The collections of A Kind Of Guise feature a mix of a wide variety of styles, putting effort into every piece’s uniqueness with a special focus on color and detail. Their Fall/Winter Collection 2012 is entitled ’The Carpathian Season’. This is their discriptive text to the concept of the collection:

A year ago a good friend of ours decided to leave everything behind, to live a lonely life somewhere in the outback of south-east europe. His journey led him to an ostrich farm near the serbian border. Ever since he lives there raising ostriches.

He kindly invited us and early  this winter we decided to pay him a visit.

Once being there we took the chance to travel across nearby countries, getting to know their culture and people..

As it was in previous collections this experience of changing our environment and getting to know something new heavily influenced our next Autumn/Winter collection for 2012.

The way of life and the attitude of the people we meet is what we try to translate into our products. This time the “Carpathian Season” is the outcome of this process.
