a special place front zoom IHMDJ A Special Place In Hell... Tee

IHMDJ (I Hate My Day Job) via The Brooklyn Artist Project has a new tee, which speaks of a special place for some of the world’s most, ahem, beloved: laptop DJs, party photographers and fashion bloggers. According to the website, it can only be purchased at some mysterious “launch event,” which, no doubt features all of the aforementioned folks in heavy attendance.

[UPDATE: The Brooklyn Artist Project launch party & art exhibit, where you can pick up this tee, is this coming Saturday in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. RSVP on the website. And given the locale probably EVERY SINGLE PERSON in attendance will be one of the aforementioned.]

Business Of Fashion’s Imran Amed Talks To Nick Knight

06 December 2010, 15.29 | Posted in Fashion, interviews | 1 comment »

Via Business of Fashion:

Ten years ago at 19:27 GMT on 27 November 2000, at a time before streaming runway shows, before Facebook, before YouTube, before the rise of Web 2.0 itself, Nick Knight’s transformative fashion website SHOWstudio.com went live. Mr. Knight, a boundary-breaking fashion photographer, had considered the internet and saw something that others did not: where many in the industry saw only ugliness and risk, he saw the potential for emotion, connection and opportunity. Crucially, he also understood that digital — inherently active, social, transparent and restless — would fundamentally transform the “closed” fashion system and radically change the way fashion media was created and consumed. While others averted their eyes, Nick  Knight set about catalysing the revolution.”

In front  of an audience of 200,  Nick Knight  shares his thoughts on fashion, Showstudio and much more. The conversation even became a trending topic on Twitter!

Stussy26 360x540 Stussy Womens Lookbook Spring 2011

Here is a look at Stussy’s women’s collection for Spring 2011. It’s very much a basic design and neutral color story compared with some of the bold cuts and prints of Spring 2010. And the denim features a mid-rise with flairs and there are trousers. I would have like a tad more flair, but meh, this is probably what stressed out retailers these days are demanding.
