JW Anderson Spring/Summer 2011London menswear designer J.W. Anderson‘s line for Spring/Summer 2011 is hot hot hot.

Combining sinister phenomena with a love of mystical characters in history and literature, the intensely dramatic aesthetics of J. W. Anderson have made him one of the most intriguing menswear designers in current British fashion.

J. W. Anderson made its debut at London Fashion Week in September 2007 with a menswear collection characterised by the use of real insects in jewellery. A dark, Rasputin-inspired autumn/winter 2008 collection soon followed, before Anderson made his breakthrough with the highly anticipated spring/summer 2009 collection, An Eye for An Eye.

Kuro Men Spring/Summer 2011We just found a line of denim from Japan named KURO that we love love love.

KURO is a denim brand that was launched during the 2010 spring and summer season. The brand’s name means ‘black’ in Japanese.

With Japanese craftsmanship – renowned as being the best in the world in the denim-production industry, in areas such as spinning, sewing, dyeing and manufacturing – poured into every detail, and with playful stitch — work giving rise to flowing lines, as well as its strong emphasis on being ‘Made in Japan,’ this range of items announced its stylish and innovative designs and unparalleled cost-performance when premiering for its first season.

Check out the images below for a better idea of whats KURO‘s all about. Don’t forget to check out KURO‘s site for additional info.

Juma Spring/Summer 2010

JUMA Spring/Summer 2010Despite being well past spring and almost to the Summer Solstice, we still wanted to tell you about a cool, casual mens and womenswear line from Canada named JUMA. Although Fall/Winter 2010 shipments will soon begin to arrive in stores, it’s not going to be several months before we can even think of anything but shorts, tank tops, t-shirts, and the like.

JUMA is a fresh interpretation of knitwear and jersey basics mixed with directional accent pieces. Reflecting the cultural diversity of their surroundings and travels along with being inspired by their friends, who work in creative industries, the brother/sister design team developed JUMA in 2003. Together they co-design the collection, with a clear vision of the JUMA look and an instinctive understanding of fashion and design.

See for yourself in the images below and you’ll know what we mean: it’s wearable, well-cut, and looks great. Check out JUMA‘s site for more info.

Butterflysoulfire Men Fall/Winter 2010

By Editor in Fashion on June 4th, 2010 | No Comments »

Butterflysoulfire Fall/Winter 2010We came across a menswear collection from Berlin last night called Butterflysoulfire. By no means news — Fashionisto covered their Spring/Summer 2010 collection last August and their Fall/Winter 2010 collection in February — it’s new to us and we love it!

Says Fashionisto: “Butterflysoulfire designers Maria Thomas and Thoas Lindner may have comically achieved a new way to blend the old and new, but fall’s collection takes a more stern approach than usual. Dressed predominantly in the customary black, the range takes shape around a modest uniform that is expanded with effortless draping. From simply sleek tops and billowing pant shapes to a nomadic push of oversize garments, Butterflysoulfire grows as that label that pushes the envelope, while remaining accessible to the landscape.”

We were doing our weekly online window shopping and came across a series of bags – Canapa — from the Spring/Summer 2010 collection by Japanese brand Felisi that caught our attention.

We’re not so crazy about the rest of the line, but the Canapa stuff is hot. The bags are made of undyed hemp with brown leather straps. They’re hot hot hot. Check out Felisi‘s site for more info and images of the collection. If you want to buy one, check out Andreas Murkudis‘ eShop, where they carry one of the Canapa styles.
