A Touareg in Montmartre

I asked this guy where he was going....he simply answered "home"!

J'ai deux amours...

Paris and Paris!

Nature shirts

The hardcore-démodé(e) that I am naturally have a thing for Nature shirts. And apparently, I am not the only one : the international blogger Heron Preston love them too and lately Martin Margiela showed them some love at Paris' fashion week. Unfashionable shirts at fashion week?! Thank you Martin!

Don't buy IT bags...

New Démodé(e)s Icon : Bill Cunningham

The man has a schedule that would make any fashionista madly jealous. What is he wearing though? A boiler suit ! "Working with class...but working class" (OZ)

New York fashion week ? Démodée !

A few days ago I bumped into this young lady in the streets of Paris and I couldn't help myself taking a picture of her interesting "pantights" I have never seen before...

And tomorrow while looking at Marc Jacob's SS08 (incredible) show what do I see on the 3d look ? Pantights!

It's not over yet... I continue checking what's going to be in stores next season and BAM : I see the eyeglasses of my Brooklyn Grand-daddy at Calvin Klein :

A lot of people could think it is because fashion takes inspiration in the streets and bla bla bla. Personnally I am sharing Uncle Karl's opinion : "There is no fashion, only clothes". Meditate it.

New Démodé(e)s Icon : Julian Schnabel

Going to a Gucci party wearing pyjamas immediatly make you a Démodé(e)s center of attention. But wearing it with these yellow lenses sunglasses so unfashionable even street scalpers stopped selling those make you an icon!
Damn Julian you are the man.

Put your stunner shades on (Brooklyn)

I've always been fascinated by grandparents... they are the most unfashionable people you'll ever find. Most of them have never been around a designer store or even glanced through a Vogue issue... They just happen to be stylish.

Fashion fades away

Balmain (spring 2000)

Coco Chanel used to say "La mode c'est quelque chose au bord du suicide". Obviously she was right.

Express yourself

About Démodé(e)s

Démodé(e)s is a blog dedicated to unfashionable people, the one who don’t really care about passing trends.

Fashion is undoubtedly becoming the sick obsession of many women and men who could damn themselves for the last it bag and monogrammed shoes just because "It is easier to copy than to think, hence fashion”*.

But a few resistance fighters are still able to use clothes as a way to express and distinguish themselves and not as way to uniform. They’re going to be Démodé(e)s’ center of attention.
