Their slim fits and selective use of pattern and color keeps the interest of the piece while making is able to last more than one season without being deemed “un-trendy” A wonderful label.

Sunday Sun is a label out of Sweden. Aside from enjoying their clothes and designs I am taking a liking much more to their woman’s line with a larger color pallet and a bit more unconventional  silhouettes and compared to the mens line which is a little more conservative I find. Your thoughts?

More after the jump…

There’s photos floating around of the new Spring 2009 line by Jeremy Scott at Paris Fashion Week. one of these photos consist of Jeremy Scott’s collab. with Adidas Originals. Pretty tight for sure. There’s back stage photos of the Jeremy Scott show found on The Cobrasnake here and here. The new line by Jeremy Scott is killer, keeping with his signature contemporary designs and patters mixed with influence of styles from the French Revolution royalty. Video of the show below.

I finally got a hold of some of the looks Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons is doing for H&M. They are classically a “Comme des Garçons” look however it seems less technical than her Comme des Garçons or Comme des Garçons Homme lines. I got a chance to attend the CDG Gorilla store in Downtown LA and it was nothing less than amazing, the interior design was very modern, mechanical post modern-ish. The walls were while ceramic tiles with brushed stainless steel clothings racks with vintage instruments and shelvings. There also seemed to be shopping cart installations raising 20 ft in height in the middle of the store. Also be noted Dover Court Market is also associated with CDG.

Anyways here’s some looks of CDG with H&M.

A great site for street wear and underground fashion is HighSnobiety.com and over the summer they have launched two other sibling sites being HighSnobette and Selectism. While checking out HighSnobette I saw these Zanotti suede ankle boots and felt the design and color were amazing. Unique detailing and with a simplistic form.  There available at Net-A-Porter. If you owned these I would want to date you.

April77 is a label from France with their FW/08/09 collection being based around Rock n Roll but going deeper being influenced by the 80/90’s non Londoners UK population. Large over sized knight wear straight skinny slacks and denim. It’s great seeing what is a very French/Parisian label and style incorporate with a UK influence. The colors consist of monochromatic grays, blacks and blues. A good touch is the acid wash…? Is this even considered acid wash when its this extreme? But anyways the bleached denim are a great addition to the collection. April77 is available at Carte Blanche in Toronto and Seven NYC.
