isolated heroes


    In 1999 Raf Simons collaborated with British photographer David Sims to produce the Isolated Heroes series of portraits – an intimate look at the Belgian teenagers whom Simons had cast for his show. The boy in the middle and to the right was actually one of my inspirations to dye my hair red.

    Teenage boys are so fascinating to me. Tell me one teenage boy who doesn't enjoy the feeling of being godlike. In any scene in any city you'll find this type of boy. Maybe he's offering you drugs. Or maybe he's trying to take you home. But when the night is over – what's left. The antonym of godlike is impotent and weak (and they are both). YOUTH I$ A CRAZY THING.
