   This Absolute Man has mannerisms of the aggressive female. But we know that fashion is motivated and designed by those who see the beauty in men, not always the masculinity.

   To those that feel this spread is an insult to what a “man” is supposed to be, I ask:

   “Why are you concerened? These clothes are not for you anyway.”

   I say this while I skim through LRG’s website and see men in clothes that I can relate to.

   as much as i want to love it, i can’t help but agree that it seems very reminiscent of dior homme.

   agree with patrick, absolute (sli)man(e).

   someone heard that hedi slimane was dead ? Balmain assume so. Crazy like hedi’s perosnal style gets ripped off, all the time. Meanwhile the dude is still a big player.

   like patrick said, maybe it’s the way they shot this, but this is just totally dior homme, except it’s like 7 years late…

   maybe they shouldn’t got him to take over dior homme, because this sure is looking better than what kris van assche is doing…
