"That's How We Dress Tokio Hotel."

Behind the extravagant costumes of the german band, that has just finished its triumphal italian tour, stand the two canadian designers. "They agreed with any proposal, as crazy as it could be. Armor-outfits, reminding Star Wars, but also knight cuirasses."

"We got the first inspiration from the tour name: Welcome to Humanoid City" say Dean and Dan, DSquared2 designers that have been collaborating with singers and music bands for years (see Britney Spears), and have now realized the outfits for the tour, that's just ended in Milano.
"They're all armor-dresses, halfway between Star Wars suits and knight armors. We had fun, as Bill and Tom Kaulitz agreed with any proposal, as crazy as it could be."
What are the 2 rockstars like? "They're both really skinny, they wear sizes that don't even exist in the italian man sizes: they're 1.83m tall and take 40-42 for jackets and 38 for trousers. Tom is a very determined person, one would think he's the one making decisions for everybody, while Bill is a free spirit. Spending some time with the two of them, you realize that they live in symbiosis and do everything by mutual consent."
Typical twin attitude. Not Only Bill and Tom, but also Dean and Dan are twin brothers.
The first meeting between the four, back in january at the fall/winter 2010/11 fashion show, seems to have been memorable. Dean Says: "We immediately got one another. Twins have some special kind of gestural expressiveness, they communicate with their body, not just with words. Result? After some time investigating one another, Dan, Bill, Tom and me started to get on well talking our "twinnish". And all the others understood nothing."
