We'll let Rick speak for himself: "As the suit gave Marlene Dietrich extra allure, high heels on a guy give him a reckless virility. If there's an icy hauteur to a boxy black suit on a woman, there's a good-natured middle finger to heels on a guy, as if to say, "I dare you to blink at me, mother fucker."
Lowdown: Available in sharkskin (seen here), horsehide and camel hide; Rick has been wearing these for years.
Price: $1350
At: Atelier New York; Rick Owens, Jardins du Palais Royal, 130-133 Galerie de Valois, Paris, +33 (0) 1 40 20 42 52

If Rad Hourani were writing this blurb, it would be over already. That's because, for the soon-to-explode French-Canadian designer, it's all about extreme minimalism. Thus, the concept behind this one-size-fits-all, unisex, sleeveless T-shirt—printed with the dates and times of a calendar—is that it can be worn by anyone, anytime.

01, 22, 16. Nope, it’s not bingo night; it's the numerical filing system at Maison Martin Margiela. Adding to the mathematical fun is a new line of fine jewelry in absurdist proportions and scale. Also this month: Comme de Garçons for H&M, Louis Vuitton and more. By Franklin Melendez
