DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT: KERMIT TESORO

The radical young designer gives us not-so-simple basics for summer 2010.

To the uninspired, Kermit Tesoro's summer 2010 collection speaks only of a practical usage of the most basic color duet of black and gray applied to ultra-wearable silhouettes. But as the designer himself would tell us, “simple” and “basic” have different manifestations in his head, and consequently appear as different concepts in his designs.

Here he enlightens us about his inspiration for his latest collection called Milinauts, which is at all turns militant, yet highly sensible. After the jump, he also goes through our Designer Spotlight interview gauntlet, so you, dear readers, can get to know him more as one of our country's youngest, most progressive designers. Don't forget to click on the photo gallery to see his summer 2010 collection.

  • Kermit, I am head over heels in love with your skull heels. Brilliant. Is there any possible way I could purchase a pair?! I have been searching the internet and can not find them any where. So amazing I want to wear them every day!
