Almost vintage Rick Owens

Coat & boots – Rick Owens


When Rick Owens is at his best, he creates beautiful garments that are futuristic. Despite being made in 2008-2009, they don’t look outdated because they were never ‘in trend’ in the first place. He tends to defy the conservative form of beauty in women which might explain why his market is so niched, but wherever the tiny stone falls, it falls really, REALLY hard.

    It’s a good thing that designers like him don’t aim to be on trend. And the fact that you can wear something for many years to come and not be out of style but still being slightly different at the same time to what ever else is going on.

    Fantastic jacket and boots, definitely pieces that will be cherished forever! You look fantastic!

    In reply to your question, I’m pretty sure the Helmut Lang jacket was from FW 10/11 :)
