Last but definitely not least, I am offering you one more Paris fashion week F/w 11/12 post regarding one of my favorite designers, Boris Bidjan Saberi. Even though this is a men’s wear line, I am a huge fan of BBS and grateful that the sizing drops down to XS, providing us women a chance to explore the masculine side.

Boris’s latest collection A/W 11/12 was presented in what seemed like a gymnasium, as the models had to make their way down from behind the top of bleachers to present Saberi’s work. To emphasize on the designers influence and sub-cultural background, hip hop beats pulsated the venue as skateboarders were seen through the center performing tricks off what seemed to be a launch box in a dimly lit venue. The pieces itself had aesthetics common to Boris: Drape, texture, leather manipulation, and heavy detailing. It seemed as the designer continued his experiment with transparent leather as he did with his SS11 collection, but this time introducing blood red transparency for A/W 11/12. A strong cohesive collection once again from Boris Bidjan Saberi, and I can definitely see myself purchasing a few pieces when it becomes available.
