Fashion: Totally unique look book from young fashion designer Josh Reim

Date
12 May 2014

What can you say about a guy whose bio on his website is just one big question mark other than “Dear Josh, you have the best look book I have ever seen. Explain.” From what I can gather, Josh Reim is a young fashion designer whose clothes look like altered versions of your best thrift-store finds. Kitsch embroidery, cuddly toys and enormous batwing sleeves are met with menacing ropes woven around hems, and cute characters on the fronts of dungarees that look a tad more frightening than they probably should. Add to that mix a bunch of models that look like they haven’t seen sunlight or vegetables for a few years messing around in a dusty recording studio and you’ve got one of the most palpable and inspirational look books you’ll see this year. Just to add to the mystery, it’s almost impossible to find anywhere that sells his clothes. Best guy ever.
