Did you just yawn, because I certainly just did. Just as boring as the Lanvin x Acne collaboration, the denim overload accessories fail to impress me. Pieces like this were around in the 80s, so who in their right mind would drop nearly $1500 for the denim fold-over shoulder bag? Expensive. Unoriginal. Boring. Blah.
Thanks Racked!

I don’t really know what to make of the Acne Fall 2009 Collection. The patterns are weird and a bit Bill Cosby-ish if you ask me. I was going to say I like the boots, but they have a weird heel on them. I will give them a plus in wearability, but that’s about all I can give them credit for. I really have to say I’m a bit let down.

Acne Fall/Winter 08 has been released with the right foot forward. The shoe collection/collaboration with Swedish shoe company Tretorn features a wide range of material and color for a variety of occasions. The bright colors used throughout the collection make the shoes a vital part of any outfit; they are certainly not a side note. There is also more basic and subtle color usage for a professional take on an ensemble.
Thanks to Selectism for the pics!

Today, the Lanvin designer today unveiled his new collection with Acne Jeans, which will be available at Barneys New York and Bergdorf Goodman at the end of November.
“I’ve started conceptualizing all of this not so long ago, I was very pleased when I started working with Acne. They’re just young, energetic sexy Swedes and our partnership really wasn’t about signing hardcore contracts, it was really just about creating about something that was mutually fun and creative.”

Acne Jeans is rumored to be doing a collaborative collection with Lanvin. Quite a strange duo, but the collection, due to hit stores in 2009, will be a little overpriced for my taste; jeans running at the $1000-$2000 price mark. Guess Alber Elbaz’s knows what he’s doing so we’ll just wait and see.
