Lanvin for H&M Fashion Show

Lanvin for H&M Men's Collection Campaign

It's here! The first looks for the highly anticipated Lanvin for H&M collection are here!

I'm really feeling the bowties and the flower pins. The suits look somewhat oversized but I'll have to see the real thing to be sure. The first look is simply AMAZING. The 40-piece collection will be available in H&M stores on November 23.

More updates soon!

Gareth Pugh SS2011 Collection

To name thee one designer I'd associate with Halloween the most, it would have to be Gareth Pugh, hands down. So to celebrate this Halloween in style, I have here the video of Gareth Pugh's SS2011 Collection, which I only have two words to describe: Spooky fabulous!

Happy Halloween!

Fashion News: Abercrombie (Not So) Fierce

First there were the complaints about the incessant spraying of the brand's signature cologne, 'Fierce', in all the retail outlets, now research shows that there's a "secret chemical" in the fragrance that would harm male reproductive hormones.

I remember it was only a few years ago when everyone was crazy about Abercrombie & Fitch and people would actually queue up outside the Fifth Avenue flagship store and come out with handfuls of the brand's infamous paper bags. Now, their stock price continues to plummet, fashionistas are ostracizing the brand, and then there were the bed bugs pandemic over at Hollister; basically, bad press pretty much just follows them around these days.

Okay, back to the main point of this post: what should I do with the remaining half of the bottle of Fierce at home? I can't wear it because that would mean supporting their business model and I certainly do not want any of my reproductive hormones get harmed by some "secret chemicals". Can I sue arguing product liability and get my money back?

3D glasses by Gucci and A|X

I've always thought the original Real D 3D glasses movie theaters hand out are not too shabby as they remind me of Ray-Ban's Wayfarer:

But then I guess it's always good to have more options. Thanks to Gucci and Armani Exchange, we'll be looking extra stylish next time we go see a 3D movie with these branded 3D glasses! The Gucci ones (right) will be debuting in the US this December at US$225 a pair; and the Armani Exchange ones (left) will be available both in stores and online, also in December, but at just US$58.

But wait... I thought at the movies, where all the lights are turned off anyway, people would just focus on the silver screen and not what 3D glasses the person sitting next to you is wearing?
