Man On The Street: Magic Tradeshow 2009

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

Magic Tradeshow 2009 in Las Vegas portrayed the always ecclectic street sillohettes and color palettes the Westcoast is known for.

While scanning the aisles for new brands, I snapped some photos of the streetwear that attendees were sporting. I captured a broad scope of what’s out there this season.

Most of the  captions on each photo are descriptions that were given to me by the muses themselves when asked how they would describe their personal style. Enjoy.

Sneak Peek: Matthew Williamson for H&M

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

Here is your first look at what you can be expecting from Matthew Williamson for H&M. The first shipment hits (a limited) 200 H&M stores on April 23, 2009. The second delivery, which will be sold at 1,700 H&M stores, is scheduled for mid-May.

Williamson has kept true to his love for fabric and colors, utilizing expensive silks and sequins to bring his prints to life. As expected, the quality of  his fabric choices have not been compromised, hence the price point which is on the more expensive side of H&M’s usual prices. Here are some key looks!

The Love Interest: Tilda Swinton

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

You may remember Tilda Swinton most recently as the Russian swimming love interest of Brad Pitt in The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. She is not the most obvious choice for glamour and beauty but I think she is absolutely captivating. She also knows exactly how to dress to support her look and accentuate her extremely distinct features , and I think shes a noteworthy muse. Here are some images of her cover and spread for Another Magazine for Spring/Summer 09. She can also be seen here in her Lanvin Oscar ensemble from last month, and here looking ferocious in a September 2008 spread for W Magazine.

Ps. Wouldn’t she be great for Lanvin’s next campaign?. . .Hmm.
