JULIUS THE NEW OLD


The post-apocalyptic stylings from Tatsuro Horikawa give us the beauty that is Julius.  If you have not seen his work then please take note.  Just as many Japanese designers Horikawa finds beauty and interest in the details.  The palette is mostly black for fall/winter and white for spring/summer.  That may sound somewhat boring but Julius is far from boring.  The use of washing and felting gives Julius a worn feel.  Julius breaks his clothes in for you but fret not it does not have the same generic wear as most designer jeans.  It looks and feels authentic and the price reflects it.  Julius is a high priced brand but the clothes are like art and art has its price. Let's hope the recession ends soon.
