Rodeo Denim

Clémence Poésy has been chosen as the new female face of G-Star RAW and recently helped global brand director Shubhankar Ray open up the brand-new G-Star store on LA’s Rodeo Drive. They celebrated their status as the first denim brand to open a store on the usually stuffy, high-end shopping street by staging a mini-fashion show in the shop window. Here’s some footage of the shop’s opening night and an interview with Clémence—where she talks in a really cute anglicized accent—about shooting the campaign with renowned photographer and filmmaker Anton Corbijn.

Keep Warm with a One Piece

Wed, 07 Dec 2011 17:31:57 +0000

Three hung-over Norwegians had the idea to sew together a hooded sweatshirt and a pair of sweatpants, connecting the two with a giant zipper. We’ve all been there people. Except that in making their all-in-one piece these guys just so happened to make OnePiece™.

Now their hangover days are far behind them as their creation buzzed all over the internet and onto the bodies of fans and celebs everywhere. Celeb Onesie Spot here. You know you want to.

OnePiece™ are now opening their first UK Store in the new pop up mall Boxpark, Shoreditch. Go down and check it out, if not just to see grown men and women in onesies in the middle of the day in public.

Fashion Week Internationale

Thu, 20 Oct 2011 18:21:00 +0100

Last night I attended the exclusive preview of VICE’s new series Fashion Week Internationale at the VICE offices. A treat all round.

First there were Fashion Week Internationale cocktails made with Hendricks (the classy gin) and an acai berry drink called ‘28 Black’, so far, so fashiony. THEN there was sushi (tick tick) and of course the appearance of the obligatory fashion crowd dressed and ready to see miss Charlet Duboc present a series of videos documenting fashion weeks unlike anything i’ve ever seen before.

The series, already featured on elle.com and The Guardian, documents a very different side to the traditional bi-annual fashion presentations we’re so used to, what with their front row faces, fads and upcoming fashion trends. No, in this series the focus also covers bombs, powercuts, politics and plastic surgery.

Filmed in a documentary format with Charlet Duboc as our host we are treated to the sartorial offerings of Islamabad, Columbia and Full Figured Fashion Week providing the viewer with a range of dodgy characters and even dodgier outfits:

From Episode 1 - Islamabad Fashion Week

The series is both funny and informative, and I thoroughly recommend you watch it. And you can!

Islamabad Fashion Week is now online. Watch Pakistan’s second ever fashion week (the first, held last year in Karachi, was plagued with power cuts and bomb threats) where a thriving, progressive fashion scene exists led by Pakistan’s irrepressible style guru, Tariq Amin who is awesome.

(Click Through Image)

You can also meet “Pakistan’s only rapper”, who’d prefer three porn stars to the Koran’s promise of 72 virgins, and the designer who really thinks “the whole Muslim world needs to relax…big time!”.

To watch the first episode follow this link - http://www.vice.com/en_uk/fashion-week-internationale/islamabad-part-1

and stay tuned for the other two……..

Mon, 10 Oct 2011 15:27:12 +0100

VICE and ASOS went looking for the most interesting young people in London, New York, Berlin and Paris. Unsurprisingly, we found that they all spend little time worrying about what their contemporaries are doing, and instead focus on making their own way in the world with a zeal that would make an oil rig worker blush.

This film is about Berlin DJ and founder of the label Exploited, Shir Khan. Since 2007 he has grown the label to play host to some of the most innovative, cutting-edge electronic talent, with a constant quest for high quality, diverse and forward-thinking releases. He explains the unique appeal of Berlin and his relationship with the city that inspires him.

Duck and Cover Want Your Face

Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:39:10 +0100

Duck and Cover, the brand named after the 1950’s American government’s advice on what to do in the event of a nuclear bomb, are searching for their new campaign model in a different way.

Instead of hiring a po faced professional, these guys are holding a competition called “We Want Your Face”. The winner will receive £1000 in cash, £1000 Duck and Cover apparel and will get to see his face all over the internet and a million magazines.

It’s not all for boys either! The female winner will be styled and photographed by the VICE Style team and will get their own editorial feature too.

The competition can be entered here: http://www.wewantyourface.com

But best of all, even if you don’t have a face that could launch a thousand ships there are still tons of prizes and gifts to be one including ipod shuffles.

Tokyo Rising

Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:36:30 +0100

Palladium have created a beautifully shot 5 part mini documentary series featuring Pharrell Williams and his visit to Tokyo post 3/11 named ‘Tokyo Rising’. The series explores the creative forces that have been a constant source of inspiration for the musician throughout his many projects and we see the architecture, fellow musicians, artists and the parts of the city itself that have been an inspiration as well as an insight into all the hidden gems Tokyo has to offer.

Pharrell has been a great supporter of relief efforts for the Japanese citizens affected by the incidents of 3/11 and he jumped at the chance to visit the metropolis that has had such an impact upon him as an artist and as an individual as this beloved city faces a new reality after the tragedy of 3/11.

While persistent challenges still lay ahead, the city’s creative class is hell-bent on making sure that their hometown thrives. Innovative and resilient, they are defining the future of Tokyo on their own terms.

To launch the new season of clothing, the Italian offshoot of Diesel 55DSL have commissioned two beautifully shot mini films following three different creative people: a photographer and two DJS, as they experience different parts of life in Italy.

The first episode features Italian photographer Lele Saveri, who left Rome in his early twenties to experience the wider world and now resides in Brooklyn, dividing his time between New York and Milan. Working around the world he has shot for the likes of Rolling Stone, NME and VICE and we follow him on his most recent journey as he comes back to his homeland to visit a traditional Sicillian festival, taking portraits of its costumed participants for his forthcoming book.
