SSENSE: "Beyond Control" Editorial
When all is said and done, 2013 may go down in fashion’s annals as the Year of the Punk. From Paris









When all is said and done, 2013 may go down in fashion’s annals as the Year of the Punk. From Paris to New York, designers filled runways — and airwaves — with youthful attitude and non-conformist tendencies. SSENSE captures the rebellious spirit of the season with its “Beyond Control” editorial for Spring/Summer 2013. A fashion spread that embraces the glitches of the digital age with a distorted aesthetic — dark overtones, sharp lines and clean silhouettes broken up by a highly digital treatment — the feature profiles Spring/Summer ‘13 collections by Saint Laurent, Dsquared², COMME des GARÇONS Homme Plus, Maison Martin Margiela, Balmain, Underground and Marc Jacobs, with a focus on high-contrast, rocker-inspired ensembles and standout runway pieces. The looks were modeled by Paul Boche from Fusion NY and rising new face Jen Dau from New York Models.
