Lookin' Good, Feelin' Great: Victor Glemaud
Rising Sartorial Star Provides a Dash of Color

glemaud.jpg
Of all life's great questions "What to wear?" must be the biggest. Seriously. Forget about gun control or why that certain someone doesn't love you back, because ain't none of that shit matters if you don't look good. It's in The Bible. Where? Well, we don't remember, but we're sure it's in there somewhere.

While we rarely have occassion to leave Queerty HQ, we imagine you guys have a bit more freedom. And, we also suspect that you kids don't want to leave the house looking a wreck.

If that is, in fact, the case, you should head on over to our friends at Refinery 29 and check out Emily Basenberg's piece on Victor Glemaud.

An FIT alum and former assistant to Paco Rabanne designer, Patrick Robinson, Glemaud's making a name for himself with his colorful, old school styles. Basenberg writes:

While the menswear category has seen flourishes of promise in recent seasons with a handful of new designers raising the runway stakes, it is Glemaud's studied use of bold color that seems particularly fresh. In fact, his palette has become the delineating treatment for his burgeoning label. "I look good in strong color so I always felt it would work for my menswear point of view, too," he says.

Heavy on knits but not on price, Glemaud's collection may just be one of the best new men's wear lines in years. Or, at least, the season...

“Old School” is right with the emphasis on school. As in they look like rejects from a 1950’s Catholic girl's school uniform catalog.
From the first Image: Nothing rhymes with orange and no one looks good in it either (orange gives people that freshly O.D.ed look.) A pair of yellow shortie pajama bottoms to make you look like a fashion illiterate ‘mo. Throw in a sockless pair of prissy pointed Pope Pradas in screaming queen red. Then top it off with a baby blue cardigan. Is Victor color blind?

Seriously, wouldn't be caught dead in any of these outfits. And, who the hell are these models. They could at least try to show off the clothes, not that there is much to show off in the first place.

I think I could throw a better outfit together with Salvation-Army Store $2 hand-me-downs. Clearly, that whole "we don't get out of the queerty HQ" schpeal is right... get out and get some color (but preferably not orange) =p

What exactly is "designed"? Layering cardigans is styling, not design. And those guys look like shit.

That center picture looks just like Dawn Wiener from the movie “Welcome to the Dollhouse”. What’s with the headbands? Couldn’t afford barrettes?

...and then bitch had the nerve to wonder why she got her ass beat after school?

Yup, and I'd be right in the front of the line. That's just God awful. You attention whores, you did that on purpose! What's next? Blueberry?

Jesus H. Christ! I commented too soon. After visiting Mr. Charmingpants' review at Refinery29, I can't help but wonder who got promised what and what kind of favors are getting doled out. Lo and behold! Model number 2 from the right is wearing what looks like blueberry vomit. Perhaps it wouldn't be so visually offensive if some crackwhore wasn't actually attempting to make headbands socially acceptable as twinkieboy street chic. If you wanna blur some lines, put 'em all in fabulous heels...some painfully high matching maryjanes at least! Thank God Mr. Glemaud didn't attend Parsons. Tim Gunn's head would have exploded.

Isaac Mizrahi would be so touched by this headband tribute. And get this: IM wasn't even making a fashion statement!

To Poo Bear, the VEST incorporated into the CARDIGAN is designed, douchebag, perhaps you should read the damn article.
