High tea would've been more apropos, but there's no room to wriggle on the New York lendar. Some signers might've blhed to put so much flh on display before bnch, but not Bastian. There's always been an erotic unrcurrent to his shows, but for Sprg he shot to the fore. "People try to pigeonhole me as preppy," he said backstage after the show. "I don't feel like I'm preppy at all. There's a base of that, but there's a base of that any Amerin menswear signer. The two pol of Amerin menswear are Ralph Lren as the superego and Calv Kle as the id—and I want to start gog more toward the id. This felt like a big step scrapg preppy off. You talk about Amerin herage; one of our biggt herag is sex. I don't feel like that's been out there enough."</p><p>Id, he did. Bastian had begun the llectn homage to Helen Frankenthaler, whose watery lors spired the palette, but the ath of Donna Summer, dis queen and gay in, rerouted his urse. Mid-show, one of his thick-thighed avatars was snterg out to "Love to Love You, Baby" a gltery Donna Summer '81 ("Summer Is Back!") T-shirt. The scene Bastian had set was a Fire Island pool hoe, where, he said, "there's that feelg that you wouldn't rather be any other place."</p><p>The show's succs was that you believed he wouldn't. This was Bastian revelg Bastian-ns. The Adonis, unrepentant their swagger: He lov to love them, baby. To drs them, too. The Bastian s are well tablished, and they don't veer far om season to season. Here as ever were len sus, vtage-y short shorts, polos, great kns. There'll be plenty to buy. But the achievement of this show was Bastian's embrace of his own fantasy whout apology. Even a day when sexualy and equaly is an creasgly visible polil issue, there's a reticence to speak openly about men's fashn for fear of spookg "normal" guys, "real" guys. Facg head on is, s mpy way, brave, even if Bastian dismiss that notn. "The whole nversatn, <em>Is straight? Is gay?</em> I n't tell who is what any longer," he said. "I n't tell what untry anyone's om, I n't tell anythg. People like thgs that make them feel sexy—that's the secret. If somethg mak you feel better about yourself, you'll pull out your cred rd." There's a utopian visn for you. Fabulo.</p></div></div></div><div class="GridItem-buujkM fVLMby grid--em grid-layout__asi"><div class="StickyBoxWrapper-jfYB jxBcTH sticky-box"><div class="StickyBoxPrimary-dzWDWL cdhYoN
