This collection marks the fourth time that Asics and Tokidoki have collaborated on sneakers, and while all the two brands’ efforts together have been strong, this one is the best yet, perfectly playing the quiet sleekness of Asics against the exrtoverted/fun-loving Tokidoki. Look for them to launch at retail closer to the holidays. More styles, including hi-tops, after the flip.

In advance of the U.S. Open tournament, New York Times offers an ode to the women who are currently at the top of the sport’s game with an article entitld “Women Who Hit Very Hard.” The article is accompanied by images and slow-motion video of them in action.

We featured the bra from Lonely Hearts “Cut-Out” collection earlier this year and now we present the bodysuit, which will start to ship in September. Brings to mind thoughts like….you should be mine, mine, all mine! Via Anothermag.

Lara Stone gets a big ole feature, entitled “The Chronicles of Lara” in the September issue of Interview magazine, shot by Mert & Marcus. It’s part of the femme dom theme, which is such a big part of fashion these days. On the one hand if you follow fashion photography it’s become a bit tiresome as a theme,  on the other hand it makes sense given changing sex roles (think about the rise in visibility of “cougers”) which have really come into pop culture prominence over the past couple years.  Via Fuckyeahlarastone via TFS.

V magazine’s issue No. 67 is dedicated to New York, with its leading editorial entitled entitled “High Society.” featuring New York’s modern-day socialites, photographed by Terry Richardson whose images refer back to the City’s socialite heyday back in the ’70s.

As a collaboration between Maartje Dijkstra  and Anouk Wipprecht, enjoy a look at the intimacy dresses by  Studio Roosegaard,  designed as a “reaction to the presence of people by becoming transparent.” The white intimacy dress was made with Dijkstra, while the black version was a collaboration with Wipprecht. The dresses intend to allow the wearer’s social interactions determine the level of transparency. The designers are also working on a bag to go with the dress and a pavilion.
