While scouring the stalls and racks at Divisoria and Greenhills for possible components of men's accessories, I stumble upon two surprises that make me wonder how ideas get around or are not actually as original as we think.
This seasoned gentleman, who I sat in front of during public transport, immediately evoked Jil Sander's Fall 2008 collection.

See how uncanny the similarities?

Only used my iPhone, which produced — after Photoshop — Rembrandtesque lighting. Allowed me to pretend I was only texting...

Now although the second gentleman I spotted didn't immediately remind me of any runway outfit, joining these two ensembles from Comme des Garçons's Fall 2009 show should do the job.

Of course, eyes were turning in his wake, intent for the kill.
