lets make ends meet, together

Spirit of Art photo By: LKCP2KXII

Looked outside the other day and seen a face in the clouds as I was designing.

I was lucky to capture nature while the sprit of the arts came to visit outside of the studio.

Downloading the inspiration from the Akashic abyss sent down by the rainbow.

Thoughts

Many years have passed and yet my style continues to evolve.

But at times I feel that time stands still and so does my imagination.

So do we step backwards at the fork in the road? Or do we journey to right which has no left? Or do we journey to the left which has no right?

No matter which path you take you will have to make decisions

but that could be a good sign to chose the path that looks most clear.

2.35 Am still Sewing...

Sewing is a race against time with no finish line, I do not think people understand how much harder this is than it seems. I am not complaining by any means. but since I have learned how to sew i have a new appreciation for well constructed garments.

We strive to keep the Love in our art here at the studio and it shows in our work. Timeless pieces that will not fall apart easily. I have often wondered what it would be like if the whole worlds option was strictly H&M would anyone step up and make better quality garments or would we just blindly follow, in a world of fast fashion mass production. 

As the industry devolves the underground is constantly changing and rapid evolving street culture is changing the ways people today perceive fashion.

One by one we wake up looking for our individual style stepping out of the mirror into being one with its reflection instead of reflecting another.

Support Local Artist and Occupy your Mind.

new jackets

Today in the Perfekt Tension Laboratory:

these next jackets are looking great! we here at the studio are looking forward to what kind of response we are going to receive this weekend.

More about the jacket, they are denim, great for spring/summer months, or even in the winter if you were indoors.

a twist of Asymmetrical line but Haute enough to be classified edgy.

inspired by discussions of apocalypse to the "end times" fused with world of warcraft and steam punk daymares...but in a marketable sense. 

I love this song at times it reminds me of the industry, because we work so hard to make new styles its hard to keep up but not if you are ahead of the game.

Spring Denim

Today in the Perfekt Tension Laboratory:

Working on some spring denim fabrics =) stay tuned...

Designer Struggles...

Dear Readers,

  Twice upon a time I have been told; "YOU! are NOT a Designer!", this is a true story. 

Stickers Available upon request.

Happened once in school and another time in the industry. 

       These words are not easy to hear but its up to you to decide if it is the truth or not. 

So my point is, if you are currently enrolled in fashion school or any art school the key to surviving is not giving up, if you find yourself saying "The reason why I am going to school for fashion is...

      BECAUSE:

      "I KNOW HOW TO SHOP" <----common answer ( I was there I heard it)

then you might as well Drop Out now unless you want to be a buyer or something in the Consumer field, because shopping sense does not make you a good designer, it just means your late. 

Fashion like any other secret society gains a lot of hype and mysticism about it we conjure in some venue, dress up like we don't usually dress on a daily basis and gather for the majik to be unveiled why is unlocking this door key to great designer status? 

 I feel as if the key to fashion is within the pulse of the designer themselves, To know shopping is one thing but to direct how one shops is another and to blend all this thought together with a blank slate to feed the masses three seasons before it's time is truly knowing how to shop...

but then again most the Mainstream clothing now days is so bleh.

Truthfully I have learned a lot in the Last 6 months we have been open for business on the streets of Portland, Or. 

The amazing thing about just designing from the pulse is that you get true feedback about your clothing instead of just, "oh i like that cut" it's functional sophisticated artsy look causes sparks of conversation.

seizing the moment of silence and capturing all the designs that might be lingering inside the thought of everything around you, just remember the simple fact that it is all...Design. 

And lastly...if you feel like there is no hope left for inspiration, stay up for 1 day and a half until you are delirious, grab your pins, scissors, dress form and muslin...

P.S. Listen to No One that tells you, You cannot Design.

"keep your trends close and your enemies closer"

Friday !3th

It's Friday the 13th, 2012 and here we are on the last day of the week before the market. Managed to get the Kowls done but could not finish the chef jacket in time for the weekend.

Here at Perfekt Tension we value a high quality standard for our looks since everything is hand crafted individually each piece carrying its own energy, magnifying the spirit of each person differently.

Its not just clothing, its an experience.

Akashic Remnants

Inoculating fabric with thread fusing sacred patterns together. Infusing the essence of confidence with in it's looks.

We do not have the answers to fix all the worlds problems but we are working hard digging through Akashic records in search of future styles.

Thank you for your support in our quest to save men's fashion. Live your dreams outside the box...

11.20 PM

It's 11.20pm about to turn 11.21 and the machine is on idle. The cape awaits its breathe of life.

Listening to sounds of underground artist while thinking of Trends to bring out to the masses.

The black elixir keeps me going through the night as the machine clatters, leaving thread trails behind for civilizations of the future...

Generations.

Time traveling through astral planes seeking trends to bring to the current lifestyles of our times.

Another Day in the Laboratory

Today is great, Bodhi is happy and we are making progress here in the kitchen.

Our mission is to try and move out the kitchen into a real studio by next year sometime.

We have more Kowls coming this weekend and also the Chef Jacket is coming soon as well.

Also thinking about designing one more jacket but as of now that decision has yet to be made, due to all the madness that's going on here right now.

3 Cycles of Mens Clothing

   When will the sewing machine gods fix my needle feed machine, I managed to reverse engineer my singer to fix the timing on the Consew straight stitch but I cant figure out how to fix the needle feed. if you have any suggestions please let me know.

   Meanwhile back at the Perfekt tension Laboratory:

   Sounds of shears cutting fabric into form, forms formulating thoughts peeling back minds eyelids, caressing the brain with artistic tentacles. bringing its host to higher level of confidence...as they seek their new home I enjoy watching as each individual piece comes to life.

   I am still seeking the root of what can be "out the box" wearable for men that has not been done yet, and still my quest continues. My boredom of men's fashion grows stronger each day, as nothing evolves but T-shirts, and shoes...props to those designers but what about the mens wear?

  Not all men's fashion is bad, but its been repeated in 3 cycles over generations and it gets more and more simple by the day, we are almost on the verge of caveman fashion...labeled post apocalyptic.

   I used to think that it is because men do not like to wear fashions, but since we have been establishing in Portland, I stand corrected on this view. 

   I found out that I am not the only one who feel this way about menswear fashion A lot of the local men in the area have told me that it is refreshing to see a new direction emerging; as more inspiration flows through the streets and as we try to capture the mystery and translate it into design.

   In the end Who knows what Perfekt Tension's Style will evolve into, but for now...we are excited to witness what creations have yet come to life....

Brewing up new concepts

Here in the Perfekt Laboratory we are brainstorming new ideas that are going to be surfacing soon. Thanks for all the support and feedback from the people we meet at the market, My friends we are about to release some really cool products.

Glow of The Banshee - from Alchemichal Whispers: Insomniax Doktrine VoL. 2

My heart sinks to the bottom of the earths molten core, for I once met a stranger that was stranger than, fiction. She had a gaze that stretched across the universe for miles, and miles. My heart almost stopped, I tried to utter a word but I was left breathless. I thought to my self how can such beauty be so vandalizing, I wasn't even beset on seeking a kiss, and my heart was swept away in the winds of her mystery before I knew it. Lost in the heart beat of a banshee what sweet melody cometh from she as she waltz on the sands of the moons elliptical grace. As I once heard a quote from an unknown poet who said;"love is like war, easy to start, harder to stop" then I met you and your gaze erased away the craze of them truths we are taught are not real, and you made them so. So please wake me if this is only a dream, or if I am dreaming while awake please let not me slumber for today I found solitude in the eyes of madness that surrounds us all slowly fading away deeper into the mysteries...
