VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: MILES ALRIDGE, NICOLA FORMICHETTI AND KAIMIN COLLABORATION

With New York Fashion Week approaching, we give you a strange, anime-meets-real life fetishistic fashion collaboration and exclusive video by Nicola Formichetti, Miles Aldridge and Kaimin.

It’s the countdown to New York Fashion Week, and to gently ease you all in we’ve decided to showcase the fetishistic, artistic collab and film from the second volume of the Zero Zero publication.

Fashionably famous photographer Miles Aldridge has collaborated with Diesel’s new artistic director Nicola Formichetti and Kaimin to unveil a rather raunchy and explicit multi-sensory experience.

The trio were asked to answer and interpret poet André Breton’s perception on sex and the subconscious: “ A certain place in the spirit where life and death, the real and the imaginary, past and future, the communicable and the incommunicable, are no longer perceived to be in contradiction to one another.” They have really ran wild with the idea…

Taking influence from Breton, the multimedia project has resulted in an outrageous erotic blood-infused series of photo shoots and performance art. The two fashion films ‘Them’ and ‘Her’ were created by Founder and Creative Director of 3Deep Design, David Roennfeldt famed for his attention to detail.

Putting aside their conventional approaches to work, Aldridge progressed from pastel shades and comparatively explored the power of monochrome, and Formichetti pushed the boundaries of intellectual provocation.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more collab-happy, the collection also contains a photographic publication, a phial of perfume by Darryl Do & Joseph Quartana and a USB key with a sound-scape composed by none other than LCD Soundsystem musician Gavin Russom. If that isn’t Fashion Week, we’re wondering what is…
