The Vibe for Fall 2010: ThinkBreathless with Doc Martens. A mash-up of tailored suits combined with slouchy sweaters. In other words, that whole Belmondo thing, but with a slight update: wool coats, pleated pants, jeans rolled high, double-breasted suits. But Viktor & Rolf being Viktor & Rolf, they throw some glitter on the thighs of those suits.
Backstory
Designer: Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren
Owned By: Independent
Founded: 2003, Amsterdam
History: Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren got their start in women's couture, which helps explain their eye for detail and taste for references. Various collections have been inspired by Hawaiian tourism, Vegas magicians, and Dutch naval history, and the duo were tapped to make the suit Rufus Wainwright wore during his 2006 Carnegie Hall tribute to Judy Garland.
The Look: Clinical whimsy
