“I really admire the energy behind the Melissa brand, the technology to produce the best plastic shoes in the world. For this latest style, I wanted to create a pair of shoes that could replace trainers in everyone’s wardrobe, a pair of flat shoes that look great with jeans, or even a skirt and white ankle socks; it’s the ultimate flat.” J.Maskrey. Crystal ‘Joy’ Brogues available at Browns.

In collaboration with the very cool Palm Springs Ace Hotel , Generic Man created a signature unisex sneaker for the hotel . The sneaker is made entirely of a breathable mesh canvas, quick drying material with a non slip sole, that makes sneaker wearing in oppressive heat effortless. The sneaker is accompanied by a tote of the same fabric allowing patrons to carry their belongings from their rooms to the pool. How cool!

When I heard about the collaboration between the very inventive Posso the Spat and Costume Dept. I expected a very visually inspiring and creative collection with a little bit of the fabulous Flo Jo (R.I.P) thrown in , a combo of one legged suits and Denise Marchebout s/s ‘09. I got event more. Titled ‘Space Safari’, this collaboration takes a stylish and modern look at swimwear, with very wearable styles in a mainly dark palette accentuated by neon and tribal accents.
Some standout pieces include, a very fun unisex safari shirt, a neon netted strapless suit and a great draped ’swimsuit dress’ one piece that would double very well as bodysuit, neon spats and great neon belts. A closer look at Posso the Spat and Costume Dept. Swimwear collection on the next page.
