The seeds of scuba suited fashion were planted in my head since a Balenciaga collection in 2003 if I recall correctly. Budapest-based desigener Kata Szegedi‘s work just reminded me of one of my many delayed DIY project which was to customise a neoprene wetsuit. In truth, at the Angels sale I had hope to find some sort of discarded space/surf costume that would mean I wouldn’t have to go into some surf shop and sheepishly ask for a wetsuit that DIDN’T have some sort of a logo on it…
Oh well…that never happened…. all I can say is that I’m entirely sold on Kata’s odd combination of bright leopard print and holographic panelling on leggings, jacket and wetsuit… perhaps some sort of creative collaboration with Quiksilver could happen here…(err…joke…)
Paired with Peter Horstein‘s holographic slashed shoes and gloves as well as his crystal and perspex jewllery… I’d be the scariest surfer/scuba diver yet to emerge…
Gorgeous! Those top shapes are intense!
Happy holidays, Susie!

I love the pleats running across those shiny wetsuitish bottoms.. and the colors and print mixing is very well done.

Shiny holograms? *drool*
Wow, nutty!!! Remember the Rick Owens crazy looking flipper-ish shoes? They always made me think of scuba diving.
I wonder if these will ever become a kind of main stream just like in movies..
wow. truly the diving suits of the future…hehe.
colab with quicksilver?? i think that is actually possible. mayb female surfers are board of the boring old black suits.
Ahhh man, this collection is a beaut! I can’t believe I never saw these babies before. You’d totally rock a wetsuit style outfit.

how awesome are those outfits yum xx
Very spacy and Balanciage-like.
Love the shoes.
So, did you go to a surf shop in the end? 😀 The pattern of the suit in the first picture reminds me of that photoshoot with Kate Moss in Vogue March 2008.
So hot! Great post x
oh GOD!! I CANNOT SAY ANYTHING
IT’S Awesomeeeee
很 漂亮
Wow, definitely not boring. Neoprene? Imagine beach-blonde surfers wearing that out to waves… definitely more shark attacks, I tell ya. I love it!
Hm, does the first model’s face remind anyone of Rachel Bilson…?
I love these clothes but could never wear anything so skin tight. The jewellery is great- I would definitely wear that.
very very cool
