I’m proud to say that I posted about Complex Geometries long(hello 2006!) before the popular blogs did and trendy webshops like La Garconne, Oak, and Creatures of Comfort started carrying the line.

I own several pieces and can say that they’re some of the most comfortable clothing I own. I think what impresses me most about the line though, is how consistent it’s been through the years. If you click on the link to the post I made in 2006, and compare it with the S/S 09 pieces below, you can not only immediately identify the clothes as being by the same designer, but some of the same shapes are still being used in the latest collection, and they still look fresh.

The clothes are casual, comfortable, and appealing to those who prefer their daily wardrobe to have a dash of the cerebral.

The F/W 09 collection is also up for browsing on the website.

Maryam Kordbacheh, creator of the label Maryam, is fascinated by the process of transforming the two dimensional pattern into a three dimensional shape, and experimentation is the key to translating her personal vision into wearable forms.

Kordbacheh takes a very sculptural approach to her designs and all of her pieces are intricate plays on shape and form (her two collections on her website are titled, ‘Space is Form’ and ‘Shape and Leftover Shape’).

All photos are from ‘Space is Form’, ‘Shape and Leftover Shape’, and her 2009 ‘The Sexuality of Flowers’ Fashion Institute Arnhem show. Two additional photos after the jump.

There isn’t much information currently available about Polish designer, Ania Kuczynska, but suffice it to say, her gorgeous minimalist pieces speak for themselves.

This is a designer most likely to be seen popping up in the States soon.

The first four photos are from her F/W 09/10 collection, and two additional photos from her S/S 09 collection can be seen after the jump.

Carolin lerch, who is the founder of clothing line, Pelican Avenue, and a former assistant to Bernhard Willhelm, doesn’t produce clothing simply for the sake of fashion. She states on the website that, “The label’s intention is to question conventional codes of fashion, to propose a different approach, to avoid stagnation and complacency. Pelican avenue tries to form an opposition to constantly changing trends and the destructive attitude of hypes.”

Lerch is another designer who strays from convention by integrating video, performance, photography, and installation into the presentation of her pieces. Her work has more in common with fine art than it does fashion, which I think ads appeal and depth to her pieces.

I’ve posted pieces from her four most recent projects/collections.

What can I say, it’s been in the 70s (F) the whole week here, and I’ve been keeping my eye on the buds. I can’t wait for some green!

Wool pocket dress available on etsy at Lamixx. Lots of simple basics at very reasonable prices.
