A New Angle on Klaus Nomi
„NOW YOU NOMI“

hamansutra announces a new project and accessory. As a fanatical collector of specific eyewear from the 80s and 90s, I’ve now completed a major project. This eyewear model was inspired by Musician Klaus Nomi and uses recycled acetate, meticulous down to the last detail, crafted by Funk Eyewear. I’ve always been fascinated by Klaus Nomi as a character. That costume! As striking and memorable as any superhero! His music (although far from my personal taste) was likewise a supreme work of art. Music is a vital part of my life, a non-toxic drug, an inspiration, an impetus to keep actively progressing and developing. I chose to base my homage not on Klaus Nomi’s music, but on his visual style. The associations with David Bowie are unmistakable. Nomi’s impressive triangular “space tuxedo” was inspired by Bowie’s costume for his performance of “The Man Who Sold The World” on SNL. That, in turn, was inspired by a costume designed by Sonia Delaunay and worn by 1920s Dadaist artist Tristan Tzara for the play “Le Cour a Gaz” (The Gas Heart). It was designed by the singer himself in collaboration with Mark Ravitz of Brooks-Van Horn Costume Co. Replicating Bowie’s Dadaist outfit would cost $1,500, which was beyond the pocket of pastry chef Klaus. However, the costumer was so moved by Nomi’s passion that he agreed to make him a triangular tuxedo “bodice” from glossy plastic. The costume’s striking angular form is reminiscent of a traffic sign. Every day on the streets, we are confronted with how the stripped-back work of a graphic designer communicates a strong message with the minimum of means. I ran with this idea and created an eyewear style that recalls Nomi’s triangular costume. It looks simple, but it was no easy job – good design needs to be invisible. This prototype eyewear is tailored to my face. And it works! Funnily enough, the origins of the eyewear design actually came about in my New York studio a while ago. I was on the phone and fooling around at the same time, balanced my set square (or triangle, for you US readers) on my nose and snapped a photo. And then it hit me – hey, why don’t we ever see triangular eyewear? This is the first prototype I’ve created in collaboration with the brilliant team at eyewear producers FUNK in Kinsau, Germany. The company owner had no idea about the project until he saw the finished product, which far exceeded my expectations. The people at FUNK loved it too. My philosophy is that we have to break out of the cookie-cutter system and keep redefining things in radical new approaches. Just because two human eyes need something in front of them to screen the sun or boost their vision, doesn’t mean we have to keep repeating the same old stuff over and over. So here it is, my Homage to Klaus Nomi on his 80th birthday 1944–2024. The world might never have heard of him without David Bowie. Hats off to Bowie for giving him and many other artists a chance of fame. Rest in melody.

60 YEARS OF THE INCREDIBLE HULK (1962 - 2022)

A new side to a true story - The Incredible Hulk in denim:
Absolutely unrippable – a new pair if they rip

hamansutra’s been working on an idea for Marvel and proudly presents “HULK JEANS”, the pants that never rip. “Bruce Banner turns into The Incredible Hulk, but his clothing doesn’t rip.” The highlights of all the Hulk movies, and particularly of the 1977 TV series, were the points when Hulk ripped his clothes to shreds as he transformed. This is where hamansutra make a sly change to the narrative – because his Hulk would wear denim that DOESN’T rip. It’s luxury segment, limited edition, in specific stores only, and excluded from sale/special offers.

Available as a limited run on WWW.QUICKSHOP.NYC

Made in Germany from 16oz Japanese Denim.

THE LONE SOLDIER / Off Set Print Poster

RTW 2022/2023
In the 1980s I was obsessed by the Lone Ranger cartoon series. For me, he was up there with the greatest Marvel heroes. My everything. I turned “The Lone Ranger” into “The Lone Soldier”. The name says it all. The only soldier who pours all his might into making his ideas become reality and protecting them – always alert for confrontation.

RTW Menswear and Womenswear 2021 / 2022

hamansutra’s latest clothing atmosphere takes its inspiration from a former military barracks. In the days when ground infantry was stationed in German cities, headshaking amounts of special planning permissions were issued for the premises they needed. Timeless and seasonal products by hamansutra include denim uniforms, basketball suits, caps, crew shirts and boots. hamansutra has also been inspired by the corrugated iron huts that were used to house men and machinery. This corrugated iron and container architecture can still be found today, and is reflected in the interior of hamansutra’s studio. The clothing is presented in original style on simple wooden shelves, carefully crafted replicas of the originals. The atmosphere is one of scrupulous tidiness – before the sirens sounded.

Because Beats, Breaks and Boots brings people together…

15oz Fold Lap Seam By hamansutra - 5 Pocket:

Original / Updated Just a warning. These Denim Pants are close-fitting and sexy. I use my own updated patterns to leave a clear personal hallmark. If your normal size is W34, you’ll need W35.

The recycled content of this fabric derives from old jeans that have reached the end of their life-cycle. The jeans are shredded back to fibre stage, blended with fresh cotton, and then re-spun into yarn. As a result, a closed-loop is created with old jeans used to make a new pair, reducing the need for virgin materials.

Long Live The McQueen

After 9/11 2001, hamansutra met Alexander McQueen for an interview in London. The two women there as showroom managers were pretty unfriendly, and one of them even mocked haman’s British English street slang. Lee McQueen had been on the lookout for classic tailors able to perform tasks like hand-stitching eyelet buttonholes. But there was nothing free for the 22-year-old haman and they never worked together. And yet McQueen told haman, “We’re the same. Creative. I can see it in your sketchbooks.” Lee Alexander McQueen accepted haman’s German military pants and original sketch as a gift, with a hand-written dedication. Haman had the pants for a long time, good quality industrial manufacture, cheap, not trendy, a German-made product. The quality used to be better, but production moved abroad after the Second World War. A picture showing Lee Alexander McQueen actually wearing the military pants in his studio, has now been used for the cover of “Alexander McQueen - The Life and the Legacy” by Judith Watt, a globally published examination of the designer. The location of the picture was Amwell Street, London, near Angel in Islington, where McQueen lived within walking distance of his studio. Central St Martins College from the late 90s to 2010 was Alexander McQueen’s best time. If he were alive today he would still be the Number One. He went his own way and had his associates, who brought him up but also dragged him down – like the corporation that owned 51% of his company. The deaths of Isabella Blow and his mother were bitter blows; he was also under pressure from Gucci Group to deliver more commercial designs. A hoodie with the McQueen logo? Never! And yet he was an irreplaceable role model to us as St. Martins graduates. He shaped and formed us; we grew up surrounded by his superhuman energy and took on the responsibility and the pressure to match his quality, imposed by the same college and tutors. After his death in 2010 hamansutra decided to delete all his social media accounts. The news was like a physical blow, it caused complete numbness. Sometimes you wonder how people like that got to be so good – but take Alexander McQueen: I know that after CSM closed every day, he would hide under the tables in the pattern room to carry on working on his collection at night. It's pretty sad that nobody can respect Alexander McQueen's wishes and close the house. People and Gucci Group should have respected his wishes. They are too money hungry to care! Sad that creativity and industry can't walk together for long. However, Lee McQueen made you dream, made you hopeful, made you love life…made you love fashion...he made us love art. His death was the culmination of his art. Rest in Paradise, brother.

Travelling without a neck pillow is like a construction site without a power drill. No way. Neck pillows are essentials everywhere, even on the couch or in the car. I was so disappointed at the poor quality products everywhere that I made my own – produced from the same denim fabrics I use for my collection. Source your own pillow, then contact me for a denim cover with copper buttons.

Story
In political terms, war clothing has no positive associations. Because the arms industry is awash with money, military clothing is made to be timeless and functional down to the last and tiniest detail. Clothing, not fashion. This M65 jacket actually won awards. Whatever. This is engineering work, the only type I like. Of course the US military pays out huge amounts for product placement to see the products worn by actors in movies. International marketing. “Taxi Driver”, “Rambo I” and “Terminator I”. The idea behind my stripped-back product modernization and styling is to restore positive associations to the “Originals – Updated”. But if you poke the bear you’ve got to be ready for its bite. The United States Armed Forces and M65 Jacket (1965) bears the responsibility for every murder in Vietnam because it was worn there. US soldiers were told to “shoot anything that moves”. “Body Count”. Rapper ICE-T formed the band “Body Count” in 1992 and whipped up a scandal with the track “Cop Killer”, which was banned immediately. By the US Government. Irony?

DESIGNERS 
We designers spend so much time working out style solutions, so we’re really relieved and happy when we don't have to go around like walking billboards festooned with logos – weirdly, many fashion brands seem to think this is desirable. With this in mind, I designed and updated a “plain, old-fashioned” shirt range inspired by this philosophy for designers, artists and personalities.
