I know this isn’t super fashion related, but I couldn’t help but laugh when I read it!

QUOTABLE: K Fed fashion

Kevin Federline is starting his own children’s clothing line because he doesn’t want to pay a lot for his kid’s jeans.

“It’s a really tough business, I’m trying to take it seriously and make a quality product for kids but not have parents pay like $500 or something ridiculous for a pair of jeans. You buy your kids a pair of True Religions, then they roll around in the dirt like kids do and a $200 pair of jeans is gone. With this economy, I’m looking to do something much more reasonable.”

Has he heard of the Gap or Old Navy?

ADDICT: Gisele Bundchen for True Religion

ADDICT: Gisele Bundchen for True Religion fashion

I adore Gisele Bundchen, but I hate True Religion and I hate this advertisement. First of all, way to sell cut-off shorts that look exactly like the pair I wear every day of summer that cost me a whopping $4 at Salvation Army. I really hate how this ad is trying to be rugged, when in actuality, True Religion caters to girls with Ugg boots and Eurotrash trying to be “different” by rejecting chic European fashion. But Gisele looks fabulous as usual; I can’t even bash her for agreeing to this campaign.

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

Daniel Saynt, Editor-In-Chief November 21 at 11:30 | Comments

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.)

Hand In Hand Or Hand In Ass. Equally Adorable!

It’s almost the most wonderful time of the year. Leaves are falling off the trees, cool autumn breeze is blowing through your hair and you’ve finally settled down and committed yourself to that guy you hook up with at the bar every Thursday night. That being said, it’s time to trade in the low-rise True Religions for a pair of adorable For Me For You jeans and get your walk n’ snuggle on! For Me For You, brainchild of designer Laurence Willmott combines fashion with natural human rituals. So, remedy your inner skank by publicly displaying your affection the “street safe” way. Come on, who can resist a mitten shaped pocket!?

Thanks Elitalice and Popgloss!

Rock & Republic Invades Soho

Corey Moran, Mens Editor September 19 at 1:00 | Comments

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.

Knock Off Those Designers And Grab Me A Pair Of Those Knocks

Marissa Moshell, Student/Contributor September 9 at 1:00 | Comments

Think the next counterfeit designer item is the new Louis Vuitton bag? Think again. The new counterfeit obsession, among us, is now blue jeans. Of the highly imported are True Religion, Joe’s Jeans and Antik Denim. Intercepting a whopping $18 million worth of apparel, customs officials have made it clear that the counterfeit items are rising in numbers from year to year.

“The counterfeiting problem exists with Rolex watches and high-end jeans because people want the cachet without spending the money.” says a property protection attorney from Chicago

People no longer want to stroll through central park with their knock-off rolex and peeling logo on a faux Prada purse. Jeans are carrying the weight of this side of the market. It truly is a substantial undertaking, and a surprising one at that.
