There are certain designers whose work compels me to keep checking in at their sites. Vladimir Karaleev is one such designer. He’s now offering footwear, and there’s a S/S 12 collection preview that definitely deserves a look

I’ve featured Vladimir Karaleev previously, but since then he’s designed two more collections and there are interviews and video of his shows now available. Courtesy of all of this new information on the designer, I’ve learned that he’s colourblind! Of course, when your concentration is mostly focused on draping and layering, colour tends to play second chair as is. He can see the colour blue, which is what initially attracted me to his clothing, and can be seen making another appearance in his Fall 10/11 collection. Anyway, each collection brings a refinement of his basic aesthetic principles and I’m looking forward to seeing more of it in the future.

I’ve posted pictures from the Fall 10/11 collection, but check out the video below to see a preview of Spring 2011

Cerulean perfection from Berlin based designer, Vladimir Karaleev. Masterful draping makes him one to watch. And I lied, blue is really, really growing on me (and as per usual, click the image above to enlarge)
