While he is not very well known (yet!), Japanese designer Tatsuro Horikawa launched Julius 2001 in Tokyo and has since gathered a devoted cult following, the same followers as Rick Owens‘ hard-edginess and Ann Demeulemeester’s romanticism. For the Fall/Winter 2010 collection, Julius decided to go much darker than their previous collection, with skin-tight-skin-baring silhouettes that do not even make you think of winter, it is a hard collection, most definitely not for the faint of heart.
