Review Nom de plume by A. Naselli show - Dansk Daily

words by Elsebeth Mouritzen

Alberto Naselli uses the french expression for literary double, Nom de Plume, as pseudonym when designing his men's collections. In his own words, he is here to entertain and dress the mob. his aim is to present creative, theatrical and humorous creations, and the crowd gathered at The Royal Danish Academy Of Music, prepared for the spetacular, were greeted by black - clad ninjas swinging red flags.

Before the backdrop of a b/w art video, male models far from ordinary - looking, either close shaved or with flowing locks, quietly presented a collection with a dual source of inspiration. The first part was clearly inspired by traditional japanese workwear for warriors, peasants and fishermen.

Lots of black pleated tops and loose pants, long or three quater's, white shirtswith funnel necklines or kimino wrap around in a clean aesthetic, completed by a monk draped in black and a warrior in shining armour.

The collection then moved into a more rock - romantic mood, again with white shirts, but in a much softer cut, almost peasant - like, together with long,  double - breasted waistcoasts over black leggins or breeches in a daringly dark universe

show review by Fashionista - Nom de Plume by A. Naselli A/W 2011

COPENHAGEN–Following Ecco’s kick-off event, avant-garde label Nom de Plume (and by avant-garde we mean really out there) showed their AW 2011 menswear collection at the Royal Danish Academy of Music. If you thought, like I did, that “Royal Danish Academy of Music” meant fancy setting, and you thought “Nom de Plume,” meant fancy French-inspired designs, you would be wrong.
The show was set in what seemed to be a small performance space/rehearsal room that hadn’t been updated since the 1960s and the show opened with two men dressed as samurai running around the room waving red flags. Which is fitting since the show was titled “Shinobi No Mono” (this apparently means “he who is hidden” in Japanese) and the first section of the show was very literally Japanese-inspired: from kimonos to getas duct-taped to the models feet to geisha-esque red lip smears. The show lost the Japanese thread about halfway through and there were steampunky looks, and several guys in white linen blouses and black bottoms that looked inspired by Jean-Paul Gaultier–not his clothes but the man himself. But most importantly, Nom de Plume introduced us to a tailored strapless onesie for men–albeit with a collared button down attached (it was not at all like this other Scandinavian onesie we love so much). It was rag tag and amazing nonetheless, mostly because of the earnestness of it all.
I couldn’t find out much about Nom de Plume’s designer, A.Naselli, but he has designed costumes for the Danish Royal Ballet, and Copenhagen fashion week’s site had this to say about him: “Nom de Plume by A.Naselli is a couture men’s fashion label, who showed a stunning first show during previous fashion week. This year
Alberto Naselli will introduce his first ready to wear collection, A/W 2011. Alberto Naselli was the creator of the character Arlechino from commedia dell’arte. He was born in Bergamo, Italy in 1572. After many years performance, he felt he was reborn, more precisely 1988 a cold November evening and he decided to come to this wonderful and beautiful city Copenhagen so he could make his extraordinary flamboyant clothing in new spaces and environment. And divine and embrace the Danish population.”
Right. Don’t you want to see the rest of his collection now?

Show review by Fashionweek live-Nom de Plume by A. Naselli A/W 2011

Vil han være eventmager, kostumier eller designer? 

 

Et komplekst univers

Der melder sig mange spørgsmål efter dagens show hos Nom De Plume by A. Naselli. Som vi har set tidligere hos Nom De Plume laver de ekstremt konceptbaseret beklædning, som findes svært at placere i en fast kategori mellem teaterkostumer og design. Desuden bliver disse teatralske beklædningsdele præsenteret i et skævt univers, der placerer sig mellem at være en teaterscenografisk, performeret installation og en event. Komplekst? Ja, er du vimmer!

Hvem er Alberto Naselli?

Men galskaben stopper ikke her. Under showet bliver vi indført i en tidslomme fra en svunden tid. Vi bliver præsenteret for musen Alberto Naselli, en historisk teaterpersonlighed, der har haft stor indflydelse på genren Commedia dell’arte, hvilket skulle være humor på højeste plan inden for italiensk teater i det 16. århundrede.

Klæd dig som ninja

I showets første del indføres vi et japansk ninjaunivers. Modellerne er klædt i alskens afskygninger af japanerroben over dem alle, kimonoen. En højtaljet udgave af en asiatisk slå-om-buks stylet med klassiske japanske træsandaler henledte min tanker på den legendariske sort/hvid samuraifilm De syv samuraier.

Den gale hattemager

Temaet skifter, og vi lander nu i et mere vestligt udtryk. Find kåren frem, for nu er det tid til løse hør- og blondeskjorter, samt veste og en lang uldfrakke. Der var heller ikke sparet på hverken ridestøvler eller vagabondlignende høje hatte. Johnny Depp som den gale hattemager i Alice i Eventyrland.

Hvad er meningen med galskaben?

Det er super fedt med et univers, der efterlader et rum eller nærmere meningsmæssigt tomrum til at publikum kan opdigte sig egen historie inden for rammerne. Forvirringen er dog total! Hovedet emmer af ubesvarede spørgsmål. For hvad var dog meningen med galskaben? Hvad laver denne performance på CFW? Hvilke butikker tager disse varer hjem? Hvilke tendenser kan der udledes? Eller skal det hele blot ses som en kilde til inspiration? Eller skal det skabe debat? FWL forsøger at finde svaret….

Thank you for the great review by Fashionweeklive

show review by Fashinising - Nom de Plume by A. Naselli A/W 2011

Baring red flags and hooded in a cowl of whose martial art origins I know not,
two warriors guarded this stage-cum-catwalk. Surreal? No. Modern menswear? Certainly.
For Fashionising.com, Copenhagen fashion week kicked off with a show that was part warrior,
part monk, and wholly infused with the Orient. And then not so.
The Orient explored it was replaced by a mid-millennia gentleman,
riding boots and tailcoats not in short supply; a gentleman with a foil ready at his side.
The label, was Nom de Plume. The season, autumn / fall 2011.


Thanks to fashionising for review.

Fashionweek Live - Nom de Plume show A/W 2011

First review of the A/W collection

Nom de Plume By A. Naselli er en af de nye spillere i den københavnske modeuge, med sit kun andet show. Efter sidste sæsons kostume-agtige kreationer, var det interessant at se, hvad designeren bag havde fundet på til denne sæsons show.
Hvor der sidste sæson var fægtekostumer, store fjer og musketer-inspiration, var første halvdel af showet denne gang kraftigt inspireret af østens mystik og japansk garderobe. Under titlen SHINOBI NO MONO, Ifølge mærket selv japansk for det engelske “he who is hidden”.
Og altså. Inspirationen er temmelig tydelig. Showet startede med to sortklædte ninjaer, der, løbende rundt med røde faner, satte rammen for showet.
Derefter fulgte en, i mangel på bedre ord, moderne parafrase over traditionelle klædedragter. Store posede og stumpende bukser, bindebånd, plisseringer, lag på lag og en hjemmelavet version af de kendte geisha-sko af træklodser. Farven var sort, med enkelte indslag af hvid. En blazer-agtig jakke med plisseret ryg fungerede godt, ligesom nogle af bukserne kunne tiltale de kræsne københavnske drenge, der i forvejen gerne vil være edgy og spændende.
Efter det japanske indslag var det dog tilbage til de glade musketerer igen, hvor især vestene gik igen. En del af dem bundet i ryggen, nogle korte og andre lange og mere frakke-agtige, på trods af de afskårne ærmer. En lang sort frakke med spidse skøder kunne godt vække glæde rundt omkring, mens man nok ikke skal regne med at se de store hvide skjorter, de stramme leggings eller de små silketørklæde. Igen en sort/hvid farvepalet, og med indslag af blonder og frynser, især på ærmer og kraver. Alle iklædt langskaftede støvler, for at afslutte looket.
Igen – flere af tingene fungerer godt hver for sig, hvis man kan se bort fra den lidt for voldsomme styling. Problemet er netop, at temaer og inspiration bliver smurt lidt for tykt på. Der er jo tale om en helt reel kollektion, og kvaliteten er højnet betydeligt – en del af forklaringen skal måske findes i, at tøjet denne gang er produceret i udlandet - men syet i Danmark. Men det forsvinder i udtrykket, fordi det hele bliver lidt for voldsomt. Det kostumeagtige forsvinder simpelthen ikke, selvom der er flere ting der er brugbare. Rammerne, modellerne og musikken gør alt for at understrege temaet; fx var stort alle modellerne i den japanske afdeling asiatiske. Al mulig ros for at bruge modeller der ikke er kaukasiske, men det bliver næsten for typecastet.
Der er allerede sket en udvikling siden sidst, og det bliver spændende at følge hvad der videre kommer til at ske med Nom de Plume By A. Naselli. Kreativiteten og lysten til at lege kan man ikke tage fra det.



Thank you for the nice review to Fashion forum.
