Cause We Are Living in a Material World and I am a Material Boy

We are totally digging the Australian label Material Boy right now. Volume and precision become the new key words, moving on and up from the oversized and exaggerated silhouettes of past and typical Material Boy styles.

Designer Mic Eaton takes his inspiration from the history of Australia, and incorporates indigenous Australian art and digital prints in a whole new earthy color palette. We’ve been talking about the return of Goth in a big way and Material Boy totally nails it. Eaton experiments with new fabrics including Japanese silks, Japanese wools and soft leather. Key items include the large button-down double pleated trouser, elasticized baggy crotch wool pant, and cape like cloaks in thick Japanese wools.

About the Author: Founder and main dude at Fashion Indie, Daniel Saynt began his career in fashion at the tender age of 14, when he worked in the stockroom for some unnamed fashion whorehouse. His distaste for the mainstream quickly festered until he decided enough was enough, denouncing all mainstream fashion lines (unless the stuffs on sale or just down right irresistible or free, you can't say no to free).

  1. hi street style friend

    i am glad to tell you that after 201 street style photo romances in Paris, i’ve been proposed to create a press magazine about street styles from the world.
    50 000 copies in Paris, then…
    My own vision is to humanize fashion through street style photo romances.

    Now, I have to create a network of passionated blogs for the content
    I’ll be glad to exchange links for helping me (collaborating ?) to show that fashion comes from street and style gives personality.

    I’ll be so happy to make it a successful magazine to launch it after in other countries with other collaborators.

    Thank you for your collaboration

    best regards
