Maciek Kobielski shot Diana Dondoe and Cartwright Lee for Rock & Republic‘s Spring/Summer 2009 ad campaign.
As is usual for Rock & Republic, the images are sexy without being obscene – so there aren’t a lot of clothes. But the looks that are there are of course sleek and rock-inspired.

As this recession continues, life’s extravagance lacking simplicities are consuming our daily lives. We walk places that used to seem cab necessary. We skip out on the espresso and opt for a cheaper, chalkier tasting coffee. We have do-it-yourself spa days instead of getting weekly pedicures. Completely aware of this recession mentality, Rock & Republic, who you used to drop almost $300 on denim for, is slated to release their rendition of the recession cutbacks. Plain Wrap, a very basic “jeans and tees” kind of line will be available this August as a cheap alternative to disposable fashion.
This recession conscious line is definitely a great idea, but who really wants “T-Shirt” written across their tees or “Windbreaker” written on the back of their windbreaker? The “Stiletto” stiletto I don’t mind so much, but as soon as Plain Wrap hits the street, you’re going to be able to know exactly who has succumb to the recession blues…just look for the guy with the “Jacket” on his jacket.
Thanks Style and Fashionista!

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, daughter of the editor of French Vogue Carine Roitfeld, attended the Rock & Republic Party in Paris wearing a sexy one-shouldered Rock & Republic Spring 2009 mini dress with ruffled detailing on the shoulder. To complete the look, she accessorized the outfit with a bow headband and YSL Tribute heels.
Thanks Fabulousness

Just another reason for more guidos from Jersey to invade Soho. Rock & Republic is opening up a store in the area to push their insanely wide boot cut jeans to a crowd already immersed in True Religion, AG, 7 For All Mankind, Lucky Brand, Levi’s and Gstar. The store will be at 102 Greene street near Spring, and will just further saturate Soho with stores that the people who live there don’t even shop at.
Thanks to The Shophound for the snapsho t.

The new store is slated to open in November at 102 Greene Street (between Broome and Spring).
The denim line, which recently released a cosmetics line, has been rapidly expanding and will occupy two levels in the new location.
Thanks, WWD.
