Understated

A company that designs understated accessories always wins me over – it’s why I have been a fan of WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie since their very first collection. I even remember meeting the twin brothers in Montreal when they had just launched, years later the rest of the world discovered WANT. If you haven’t, you should. They make the perfect foldable tote, an update to the classic tote that has been a staple in their collections since the very beginning. Perfect for the SS14 season in this great nautical inspired stripe.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
