At some point, though, the selection of late nineties/early aughts Helmut has to dry up, right? Like, one day a box will arrive at someone's doorstep carrying a three decade old Helmut coat that had been bought and sold dozens of times beforehand, and as soon as he removes the coat from the box it'll crumple into a pile of ashes and Vintage Helmut will become a memory.

Piles of ashes are always the natural next step for old Helmut


When in 2010 the New York atelier of Helmut Lang caught fire and a big part of his archives burnt down, fashion lovers all over the world burst into tears. Not so much the master himself – well versed in the art of thinking forward. He famously shredded the remains to form sculptures out of the material.
