Pete Versus Toby Fall 09

This has to be one of my favourite Fall 2009 collections. It’s by the label, Pete Versus Toby.
This season really reminds me of Rockers NYC, like a Streetwear/club/dirty not giving a shit but still looking good feel.
Designer Marco Zirov has collaborated with Byron Bay artists Lex Williams and Raina Hede to develop an in house [...]

David David London

I first heard of David David last year at London Fashion Weeks ‘Fashion East’ show, which has always been the cool cutting edge one that shows 3 top young designers.
David Saunders, the ‘David’ behind David David (How many David’s is that in one sentence?) Initially started off in the world of fashion by printing his [...]

Keep an eye on these: Jaiden rVa James

Jaiden rVa James are a young duo from London, who go by names of Jaiden James and Rasharn De Vera Agyemang.
I really love how they’ve brought traditional african culture into a contempory collection through the prints. I recently did a very similar collection project on african tribes so it’s really cool to see how [...]

Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony

Chloe Sevigny has created a capsule collection for the second time at Opening Ceremony, that’s that mad shop in NYC (and now LA) which stocks new designers from a certain country and just keeps swapping the country every now and then.

Sophomore NYC

Other than having one of the best lookbook photograph collections I’ve seen in a while, Sophomore also have probably one of the best basic staple collections you can buy. I certainly think it beats American Apparel for staple style.
I never really totally got the whole AA hype thats been going on recently, myself. Although I [...]

Refreshing Hightops from Compass Show

There where loads of great new shoes at February’s Compass show. I particularly love what Alife, Clae, HeyDay and Pony have been up to. They certainly make a nice change from your usual Nike dunks or Adidas.

Mad B&W tees by Modern Lovers

I’m seriously in love with that cat print from newly founded label, Modern Lovers. At the moment I’m really into the plain black illustration T-shirts.
What a great & simple style to get right for new labels? I know from my attempts at starting labels off (which I’m still going for) is that getting T-shirts screen [...]

New talent: Sibling Knitwear

One new label who I’ve only recently got on to is Sibling. They’re a small knitwear label based out of London, ran by Joe Bates, Sid Bryan and Cozette McCreery who have all worked at top designers such as Alexander McQueen, Lanvin and Giles Deacon.
I don’t know if I’m not looking far enough, but I never [...]
