Seeing early-90s R&B style, poodles, banging hip-hop tunes, tattootists gone mad and surreal headwear combined felt like the birth of a new way of life, for a new sort of people. It’s also known as being really mindblowingly good at fashion. Nasir Mazhar is a 26-year-old Turkish guy from Leyton in east London. His previous shows majored on the surreal and history, but maybe this one was so incredibly good because it was just him, all the stuff he loves and with no fear.

OMG who let the dogs out.
I’m talking about Lola.
Go to your fucking cheesy Balmain show then honey.
Nasir Mazhar is a brilliant artist and just cause you didn’t see a pretty handbag you could see yourself wearing to the supermarket has nothing to do with his talent.
Vice is right. The show was the bomb cause he expressed exactly what he wanted, which fails to be the case with many designers and artists these days.
CAIO!

Good cereal is actually quite expensive these days.
