Damir Doma « Flux.

I hope you are not tired of my Paris stories yet because here comes another one. After the Damir Doma show we decided to fool around, chat to some of the fellow street style photographers, and actually properly perpetuate my outfit for once. Do check out my friend Arash’s self-made wedges that I jokingly named as “Shit Owens“, and which Arash himself describes as “a desperate attempt at feeling fabulous” (after breaking three pairs of these RO medges during spring. Not to worry though, according to the very helpful and friendly Rick Owens sales people in Paris, with the new f/w 10 collection the quality issues have been solved). At least they provided entertainment and were one of the most photographed shoes out there. Arash dreams of becoming a shoe designer one day and I really don’t blame him for doing so, at least he is not lacking of imagination.

The last but not least of the fashion shows we attended on the Paris men’s fashion week, was Spring/Summer 2011 collection of the Croatian born designer Damir Doma. He is probably the most known of the bunch and getting a lot of, much deserved, attention in the fashion world at the moment. The beautiful school courtyard where the show was held at, was buzzing with fashion elite and insiders, so you can imagine attending a massive event like this was the best possible ending for our fashion week experience.

For spring/summer 2011 Damir Doma has traveled to the Orient with relaxed silhouettes, kaftans, keffiyefs, and fez hats. This style has been featured quite a few times on the runway but never has it catched my attention to this extent; The subtle looks and earthly colors create a peaceful atmosphere, a zen like state where everything is in peace and harmony. It’s a state that I wouldn’t mind being in next summer.

Here are my favorite looks and the designer himself, please view the slide show below for the full collection.
