Big in Japan: Heath

I’ve only slightly been keeping track of Japan Fashion Week since it started last Monday in Tokyo, but for me the highlight has to be Gentaro Noda’s label, ‘Heath‘.
Gentaro is a Central Saint Martins Menswear graduate, who since graduating has moved back to Japan where he then went on to launch his first line named [...]

Terry Richardson, Autoportraits

Terry Richardson, the iconic naughty boy photographer from NY has gone back to his creatively sleazy roots after a while of being sensible, for this watch spread with Anna Selezneva for Vogue Homme International, titled ‘AutoPortraits’. This has to be some of his best work in a while.
Check out the whole shoot after the jump.

Libertine SS09

It looks like NY based Libertine have looked to public schoolboys for their SS09 collection. There’s a lot of fine details on most of the garments such as the lapel detailing above, which for me really pulls the collection as a whole together.
SS09 is way stronger than their AW09 (check that out at mens.style) which [...]

Mercibeaucoup Japan: AW09

The Japanese brand, Mercibeaucoup recently revealed their AW09 collection. You can certainly tell this is going to go down well in Japan, check out any of the JP streetwear blogs and you see these kind of ideas all over the place.

Christopher Lee Sauvé; Spring shoot

Christopher Lee Sauvé, the New York based artist recently had a photo shoot for his Spring range. He’s currently most known for his ‘Save Anna’ shirt after the whole thing last year about the possibility of Anna Wintour being replaced at American Vogue.
Out of the whole current collection, I don’t think there’s one T-Shirt that [...]

TV Melbourne AW 09

For some reason, Australia never comes to mind when you hear the words ‘fashion’ and ‘designer’ in the same sentence. For me It’s usually cricket and Steve Irwin that I think of. But Melbourne based Label ‘TV‘ have certainly lead me to change my narrow minded thoughts on Australian designers. I ended up finding loads [...]

Long Clothing

Long Clothing are a newly launched unisex T-shirt label from East London with one basic concept; Long T-shirts with a skinny fit that can also be worn as dresses.
The prints are purposely simple to give more emphasis on the cut of the T-shirt, which for me works perfectly. Personally, I’d well rather wear something like [...]
