I wasn't crazy about it - nothing that made them particularly special. I think the line (well, it's really a capsule) will need a bit of work to make it stand out and demand the audience's attention the way Silent and Drkshdw have done.

Thanks for the heads-up, I appreciate it.
On top of that I would like to know when exactly it will be made available, if of course you have this information and you are able to reveal it.
it was presented simultaneously with the fw13 collection, so I would imagine it to be roughly the same time, which is summer / early fall.
its definitely a very different concept, more so than I imagined. pretty simple jeans, print t-shirts and jerseys, a couple of outerwear pieces (street/techwear oriented) and so on. aimed at a more younger crowd for sure.
"AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."
To be honest I can't wait for this capsule to become available cause judging by his influences I am sure that his street-wear output is going to be great at some point (maybe not at his first attempt). He does have the right basis for such a line.
Does anyone know if BBS footwear are outsourced or made by his team? If it matters, I'm referring to current season.
Short of a shoe-brand like Augusta (and even then I'm not sure), I don't think many places at all do their footwear in house. Even CCP outsources and just does some of the post-treatments in house. The actual construction is done elsewhere.

there was an interview with simone where he states that he makes the boots by hand but i suspect there is a team in a workshop with him.
11 is due to FW, so no items before late august- early september.
Please read the thread.

sorry for my bad english, i learned it from the book.
I too am inspired by homeless people when I buy a $1,000 jacket. Why don't we just shit on them? Oh, fashion, sometimes I wonder why I bother...(Faust)
This almost 30 minute clip was just posted from BBS Facebook page. Unfortunately I have no idea what they're saying, but it's always interesting to see studios, how things are made and so many silver straps gathered in one place!
*apparently there was a part two as well, added that.
I saw that on Facebook as well. Would love to know what they´re saying. Boris has become one of my most treasured designers and I´ve watched a few videos of his work in his atelier. Hopefully a kind sould will put subtitles on the videos.
