Trendspark: Sweat Chic Gets It’s Time to Glissen, Cause You Know Models Don’t Sweat

The new trend to watch in the spring is the growing amount of sweatshirt material high-fashion pieces hitting stores. So basically, you can look like a model when you hit the gym. As if I need more distractions while attempting to pump out super sets on weekdays. WWD featured a couple of the coolest pieces to watch for from Alternative Orange, Alice McCall, Slow and Steady Wins the Race, WKND by Cheap Monday, Jeremy Scott for Originals by Original, and True Religion.

(DISCLAIMER: Daniel Saynt doesn’t actually “pump out super sets on weekdays”. That would require him to get his ass of his computer, which rarely happens since he’s addicted to fashionindie.com and Google searching his own name.)

Who Is Fashion’s Next Character Actor?

Woke up this morning realizing how tired I am of Karl Lagerfeld, John Galliano and Anna Wintour.

They always seem to be playing over-acted versions of themselves. It was endearing at first, almost an expected outcome of the over-indulgent nature of fashion types, but I think that their time has come and is now quickly fleeting. Karl can’t eat a proper meal for fear of tipping the scales and reverting back to his fatty days and Winnie is quickly getting trumped by her children and Ann Slowley in the “ones to give a damn about” department. So here’s my short list of those I think might be the next favorite characters of fashion.

Add you’re own picks in the comments section and we’ll try to keep track.

Christian Siriano - His royal fierceness, if only anyone will pay attention.  Runway is done, but wasn’t he the most interesting character the show has had since the days of that greasy Rasputin looking dude?  I just hope he doesn’t become a cliche as quickly as he’s become relevant.

Tyra Banks - She was Sasha before Beyonce was Sasha and she continues to play young Oprah to a tee. Hopefully the model won’t lose any steam as she continues to fuel a generation of big bootied fashionistas.  Plus, she’s donned a fat suit. What’s not to like?

Jeremy Scott - Former drugettes make for great fashion people. His celebrity connections help, but Jeremy is forming a strong posse of media friends and publicists which seem to keep this droopy eyed inmate in the spotlight. Hopefully a downward spiral is in his future, cause you know how we all enjoy a little tragedy with our couture.

Henry Holland - Starting to look like the male version of Agyness Deyn, but still a character to watch, his parties are getting as much attention as his collections and that’s what makes a mere fashion designer a future icon.

Olivier Zahm - Vincent Gallow’s Love Child/Editor of Purple Magazine takes the cake for people we would enjoy spending a Saturday night with and his recent relocation to New York will ensure he continues catching the glare of the paparazzi. Hopefully his legendary attitude won’t let us down.

Dov Charney - You know you loathe him, but that’s what makes him so much fun.

Andre J - No one can pull off a gown better than this towering Amazon. The beard screams “Look at Me Bitches” while the attitude yells “NOW PAY ATTENTION”. I can’t get enough.

Leigh Lezark - Party Gothic finally has a heroine. Plus she is quite literally the only good thing that came out of that Misshapes thing a few years back. 

 

Terry Richardson -  Lumberjack shirt + Full Frontal Nudity + Pocket Camera = Instant Icon.

 

Merlin Bronques (or whatever he’s calling himself these days) - THE ONLY NIGHTLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER WORTH PAYING ATTENTION TO … lately. He’s ditched the wig and now seems to be playing a hipster Clark Kent. His photos are still better wanking fodder than most of the porn on the web and he’s finally going mainstream!!!  If you don’t know him, you better take note.

First Look: Adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott

Yesterday it was the Adidas sneakers by Jeremy Scott, today we have the Adidas Orginals Collection by Jeremy Scott. I will say it started off not so bad, then it got real bad real fast. I mean I don’t think I really have to explain why it’s so bad, but why not make sure you get the point. Unless you are being a pimp/whore or the cast of the Lion King for Halloween don’t waste your money. This line can easily be summed up by that picture of that girl in the hoodie, a big leopard printed log of shit! That hoodie has weird arms sticking out of the side and a creepy hood, it really isn’t good looking at all. For those of you who are looking to land the back of your 5 IQ head on Back-stabber, buy that sweatshirt and come hang around our office and your bound to be discovered. Oh Jeremy Scott, I almost liked for a whole day this time!

Thanks to Trash Bag Aesthetics for the photos.

First Look: Jeremy Scott x Adidas

Fuck Redbull, Jeremy Scott will give me wings! Another collaboration another Jeremy Scott success. In his recent work with Adidas, Scott has produced three stlye shoes that come in three colorways each. The gold hightops with wings are some of the coolest tennis shoes I have seen in a long time. No word on a price yet, but the collection is another Spring line, so you’re going to have to wait for these ones.

Thanks to Is Mental and Highsnobiety for the pics!

First Look: Jeremy Loves Ksubi SS09 Collection

Jeremy Scott debuted his Jeremy Loves Ksubi line in Paris last week, and the prints are nothing short of bold. For those of you readers new to the Jeremy Loves Ksubi collection, more or less all it is, is that Jeremy Scott takes Ksubi designs and then prints his own pattern and such onto them. I think it’s a cool collaboration, and a simple way to bring more products from both designers. What do you think indies, should more designers do easy, cool collaborations? Or are collaborations done?
