Timur Kim

Autumn Winter 2015

Timur Kim, embarks on a journey exploring sartorial embodiments of emotion. The first, for this season, epitomizes "anger" and the struggle to control it.

Beginning calmly, pure denim looks, a signature for the designer, are tampered with patches of leather and embroidery, signifying a disturbance. Intensifying emotions are portrayed by complex mix of techniques and diversity of styles and accessories from intricate hand-threading of denim to delicate embroideries, often patchworker in one tonal piece.

Naturally for the designer, denim can be found in every single look, quite often accompanied by this season's new light luxe wool. Though, for autumn/Winter 2015 Kim has reinvigorated his trademark fabric; pleated stretched denim goes throughout all the stages of "anger"- bleaching, dying and finally tearing apart into tiny little pieces, only to be precisely hand-threaded through hand-knitted pieces.
