“Go Wild in the Country” with Rene Gurskov

The darker side of Laura Ingalls as a boy.

Traditional Amish handicraft meets urban trash.
Where snakes are absolutely free!

The wild little girl of west translated into a modern boy.

The contrast of well behaving and going crazy.

Pretty traditional clothing trashed by a fight in the mud.

Mama’s homemade coat of many colours.

Dad’s handyman belt as a skirt.

Gender bending the beautiful countryside.

The songs of bow wow wow.

The “go wild” collection explorers the contrasts of yesterdays living and modern Buzz.

Is the countryside still alive and creating?

The collection has a puffed cozy side and a harder trashed urban side.

In the right mix – this country boy looks both cool and cute.

Check out the collection here.

ON PARADE with Rene Gurskov in Fall/Winter 2010

So, what do the French, the Salvation Army, the former Soviet Union, and Gays all have in common? You got it—they love a parade!

For Danish designer René Gurskov, parades are a way to show off what you’ve gotand the things for which you are proud: your power, your ideas, your beliefs, and your looks!

With René Gurskov, the fall/winter collection of 2010-11 is “ONPARADE,” a line men’s fashion for the parading kind of guy!

Military coats, Donald Duck tops, Jackson family leather—add a little touch of classic rock, the Village People, and an old MTV sailor—and you’ve got it!

And if you got it, well then flaunt it—go on parade with René Gurskov’s ONPARADE this autumn/winter season.

For additional information, follow René’s blog.

InCircus a/w 2009—Danish Form & Function Set in English Fiction

Jane Marple appears in a dozen Agatha Christie’s crime novels as a female version of the "gentleman detective" living in a small English village, St. Mary’s Mead.

Often seen knitting or uprooting weeds at her cottage, Miss Marple is surrounded by eccentric folks who dress in a sort of deluxe outdoor country style.

You can almost smell the muddy paths, hear the hooves of horsetrotting, and feel the fluffy manners in the 2009 a/w collection of Incircus.

Raised in Copenhagen and educated in Paris, René Gurskov owes his artistic compass to his parents, who instilled in him the ways of sewing and fine art, so well-reflected in his menswear line Incircus.

True to Danish design, René lays the cornerstone of form and functionality at the foundation of each design.
