Chokers: The Lawful Grip is a design portion I have chosen to do to contribute to the renowned Choker Craze that has taken over fashion. All chokers were made by me using manmade or raw materials unless stated otherwise.

So where do you think American Apparel got their idea for super tight sexy clothes from? Yup that is right, the King of Cling himself, Mr. Azzedine Aläia.
In the 1980s! Amazonian models were photographed in skintight dresses by Aläia while they had a pow wow in the street.
Azzedine, who believed "the base of all beauty is the body, was inspired by Madeleine Vionnet.
Azzedine also said, "There is nothing more beautiful than a healthy body dressed in wonderful clothes."
He is the expert "bodyologist" when dealing with the female form based on his studies in sculpting.
After being recognized as such, Azzedine moved to Paris and worked for Dior, Guy Laroche, Yves Saint Laurent, Thierry Mugler but his best accomplishment has to be his own designs, stretchy dresses, that defined the Lycra revolution.

KENZO has partnered with Toilet Paper Magazine to construct their Fall and Winter 2013 collection advertising campaign.
Toilet Paper is an artists' magazine created and manufactured by Maurizio Cattelan, Pierpaolo Ferrari, and Micol Tolso in 2010. It is a picture based magazine that has "allowed for its images to be used and applied for a variety of products and media, exploring the possibilities for images to live beyond the pages." After appearing in the windows of Palais de Tokyo, KENZO contacted Toilet Paper to have them do the advertising campaign for the Fall and Winter 2013 collection.

KENZO Spring/Summer 2014 Womenswear Collection
KENZOSpring/Summer 2014 Menswear Collection
KENZO's inspiration for the Menswear Spring and Summer 2014 collection came from the "deep affection of their home state and the subcultures and underground movements from the beach towns on the Pacific ocean," while the inspiration for the Womenswear Spring and Summer 2014 Collection came from "the historic underground L.A. music scene."
Both collections for KENZO Spring and Summer 2014 use the cobalt blue color; a color trend for the year; and distinctively detailed pieces.
