Pfingstgeflüster Shoot

The phototshoot we did with Pfingstgeflüster on the day before the WGT brought us a special opportunity to discover the monumental hallways of the early twentieth century “New Town Hall” that was built upon the foundations of the old Pleissenburg castle, which deemed a perfect setting to showcase our thursday outfits.

Buying Pants

Normally dreading the necessity that is buying pants – especially so considering the horrid fit current models tend to have on me – I was lucky to find some nice pairs that didn’t require too much alterations to be done.

Linen, cotton and softwool pants with pins indicating correction-points.

The new About

I, DiscipulusOpus Relinque is a weblog I use to share a daily excerpt from my work on a multitude of artistically incited projects, of which the majority have become gothic fashion garments for both myself and my companion, directed towards larger goth-scene happenings such as the yearly Wave Gotik Treffen.
Favoring creative design above over-decoration, I set out to synthesize divergent styles, incorporating both classical and modern materials and construction methods, documenting my opus while releasing my creativity upon the world.

Educated in science and architecture, while active in information technologies; combining resources with structures to achieve forthcoming results has become a second nature. Considering the lingering couture-wisdom within my heritage I felt compelled to answering a youthful artistic indulgence and express my own inventive visions of high-end men’s apparel contrived to the best of my on-growing knowledge.

..writer of Opus RelinqueBundling sights that touched and shaped me through my years, with my own notions on form and beauty, I search to challenge the fine border between street-wear and art-fashion, experimentingly honoring my influences devoid of genre limitations and not shy for any extravaganza.
Lead by mathematical justification I continue to conceptualise thoughts and ideas into construction-methods taking control over the coveted design towards creating standalone pieces highly motivated in individual charisma whilst serving their proquired purpose within subsuming outfits.
Regarding the construction I am blessed to have a guiding hand at a modestly equipped atelier, allowing me to continue my home-base efforts while providing me a continuous glance into past couture, complementing my autodidactic confection knowledge, in exploring the best method for the job.

Which brings us to the raison d’être for this blog, which is the sharing of these, from memory-fading, techniques, in extrapolating my designs and motivating material choices as I document my own learning process, showcase my results and cover acquisitions and undertakings, providing the total artistic concept broken down into original scribings, though-out and fashioned in an eloquence reflecting the clothes themselves, populating this platform, I keep groomed to my personal standards of web-resources.

..show myself.Hoping my writings contribute something of interest to those who come to read them, I’m thankful to those who already do so now and support me with their graceful feedback, critical observations and appreciative ponderings, making me confident enough to ask you to click my sponsors and spread the word about this website, as though the long-term course of it is unclear to me, I wish that for the time being we can converse adressed topics together and see where the future will take us.
