Tinkering with tailoring seems to be seasonal obsession with designers for Autumn/Winter 2010 – if a pocket can be displaced, the motto seems, it should be displaced, slicing and dicing the traditional three-piece and re-assembling the pieces like a child’s jigsaw puzzle, and with a similar genius-cum-naivety dependent on the designer’s talent. This was the game Lutz Huelle chose to play for his Lutz collection, but given his propensity for this kind of trickery and deconstruction, he had the upper hand to begin with. Lutz seemed to slice and tailor his details from seemingly free-falling panes of cloth, thus a great swathe of raw-edged wool whorled around a torso, with trench-coat collar, pocket and hem dropping out of the massed fabric. On the flip side, fabric was draped over the shoulders into a cape, whose form was magically interrupted by a pair of detached sleeve heads created by vents sliced into uninterrupted fabric – tricky to describe, even more difficult to make, but effortless in execution. Amongst all the clever-clever fabric play, the latter indeed seemed especially magical, and an inventive twist in a season when every other designer seems to be chopping and tugging forms apart in search of edge. The cape dominated the show, in both this form and sometimes another trompe l’oeil interpretation: jacket in front with faux-sleeves peeling away into a swinging cloak at back pulled taut with a belt. The strength of these experiments, ironically, was one of the collection’s drawbacks – the draped, wrapped and pulled silk crepe frocks were terribly sweet, but just didn’t have the excitement or energy of Lutz’s faultless tailoring. That could easily have stood alone, and been even better for it.

This was the first time the collection was featured in an Editorial – Lori Goldstein and Steven Meisel. To say I was ecstatic is an understatement- I simply couldn’t believe it. Both had been heroes of mine forever, and to be in one of their editorials in Vogue Italia- amazing!

C’est la saison des cobrandings. Karl Lagerfelddessine quelques paires de Repetto ; Jimmy Choorelooke la botte en caoutchouc Wellington. Et Robert Clergerie nous fait de formidables triples « Lutz » piqués.

Si vous avez jeté un œil sur le défilé printemps-été de Lutz, créateur prometteur diplômé de la Central Saint Martins et auréolé il y a quelques années de la prestigieuse bourse de l’Andam, vous aurez sans doute remarqué les sandales multicolores portées avec les robes poids plume en satin, les liquettes en mousseline et autres silhouettes teintées d’orange, de gris, d’ivoire ou de ciel orageux. La première bonne nouvelle, c’est que vous avez déjà pu voir avec quoi les assortir. La seconde, c’est qu’elles constituent une ligne capsule éditée pour l’occasion par le chausseur Robert Clergerie– qui sait de quoi il parle en matière de cambrure vivable et assise solide. On aime le côté fragile des brides en cuir verni, ciré ou vieilli, cassé par le style rugueux des larges bandes élastiques qui entourent la cheville, et les associations de couleurs qui fonctionnent avec toutes sortes de looks.

Parisian brand LUTZ has paired up with footwear designer Robert Clergerie to present LUTZ By Robert Clergerie. This limited edition collection for SS09 features two silhouettes both offered in two color-ways. The styles mix different types of leathers: varnished, aged and waxed with a variety of straps and elastics resulting in feminine yet powerful designs. Robert Clergerie is a shoemaker that I have adored for some years. Clergerie’s designed tend to be bold and rather substantial, usually clunky heels, platformed soles or wedges. This collaboration between these Parisian design houses is a beautiful marriage between quality and craftsmanship and modern femininity.

LUTZ by Robert Clergerie

Après le succès de la collection printemps-été 2009 “LUTZ by RobertClergerie”,

LUTZ et Robert Clergerie renouvellent leur collaboration pour l’automne-hiver 2009/2010

dans une nouvelle mini collection de chaussures.

LUTZ nous propose des créations originales en édition limitée, inspirées par le derby classique. La collection “ LUTZ by Robert Clergerie ” AH 09/10 se déclinera en trois modèles : une botte en cuir stretch qui gaine le mollet, avec un pied en cuir lisse presque mat créant un dessin de derby classique, une boots qui reprend la même idée en version “bout – fleuri” à l’aspect traditionnel masculin et un escarpin du même dessin associant le look au confort, grâce à son épais patin qui réduit la cambrure.

Les couleurs : le noir et les combinaisons noir & navy, noir & marron et noir & gris. Commercialisée par les boutiques multimarques qui distribuent LUTZ, cette capsule vient compléter la collection et les accessoires LUTZ.
