Collab-Ho: Cobrasnake and Ksubi

Cobrasnake and Ksubi are teaming up once again, this time for an exhibition of Mark Hunter’s “social photography” in Ksubi’s Australian stores.

The exhibit includes 200 signed photos lovingly curated from Mark’s hard drive, all of “young girls” once featured on Cobrasnake, shot in London, Paris, New York, Tokyo, LA and Sydney.

If you want to catch the exhibit, titled “Too Young,” stop by the Bondi Beach Ksubi store in Sydney at 6pm, or at the Armadale store in Melbourne on the 28th.

Mark himself will be on hand, signing limited-edition tees and prints available for purchase.

Interviews Of Fashion: Gareth Moody

The folks over at Happy People Don’t Complain recently got a chance to sit down with Gareth Moody. The former Ksubi designer started Chronicles of Never back 2007, and the Australian brand has been taking off ever since. I love the company so I was obviously excited to read the interview. Here’s a little snipet of the conversation.

HPDC: Tell us something about your background and your role at CON?
GARETH MOODY: I was born in Sydney Australia, I also happen to currently live in my place of birth. Actually have not studied beyond my years at school, I decided to tackle things in a trial and error type arrangement, to date it seems to be working. My role atCHRØNICLESØFNEVER, well I’m the founder, director and designer, so I suppose I’m multi-tasking at present.

HPDC: How do you create your designs?
GARETH MOODY: I’m more of a hands on character, I’m also a little old fashioned, I illustrate everything by hand, pencil to paper. I prefer this method of design.

Be sure to check out Happy People Don’t Complain for the rest of the interview.

Ksubi S/S 2009

The Ksubi Spring/ Summer 2009 lookbook has got me feeling a bit “torn”, like Natalie Imbruglia. This collection screams “hipster” (which definitely isn’t a good thing…) with it’s bold splashes and blocks of color as well as the screened tees and metallic leggings. The collection may not be my cup of tea overall, but there are some looks I really do like. For instance, I’m loving the floaty, sheer top paired with the pocket bearing denim shorts. The random fabric hooded frock on the other hand, well, I wouldn’t even let my dog sleep on that thing. 

Thanks NYLON!

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?

Jean Shorts: Denim Disaster or Blessed In Blue?

Sorry JT we don't do trailer park chic here, Oh and nice tribal tattoo

 Justin was recently snapped by the paparazzi in Italy with his soon to be wife (possibly?) Jessica Biel. I doubt he knocked the socks off any of the fashion thirty Italians with his Tennessee Tuxedo shorts. Shouldn’t the self proclaimed “William Rast” know that in a world of cropped pants and knee flashing, that his shorts are too long. The fashion world is built around killing bad trends, so why couldn’t JT get this right? Well lucky for you indies I am here to make a couple suggestions on rocking denim shorts, so next time you go to Italy for a quick vaca (yeah right) you’ll “bring the sexy back” rather than scare it away.

Try these Fremont shorts from Oak. They fit a bit slimmer and flash a some knee. The more knee the less ghetto!

These cool double waisted dark denim shorts from Ksubi allow a comfortable slouching look without the shorts being too long. They are damn stylish too.

And just because Fall is closing in doesn’t mean shorts are dead. Throw some leggings on, and you are good for another couple months. Sorry Justin but those Wrangler specials with that fake hole in the front just aren’t doing it for me.

Thanks to Celebslam and Oak for the images.
