All about fashion knowledge on one page… I already thought that was missing! Will it be as good as it should be!???

Kermit Tesoro: Skull heels

Kermit Tesoro is a rising fashion designer from the Philippines, with a really avant-garde sense of style, which interestingly he does not, as most “futuristically” orientated designers (expl. Gareth Pugh) do, display with black and other dark shades, he uses a mainly monotone, natural color palette. In his latest collection he had those skull heels- fabulous!
I even think Kermit Tesoro is a bit of an Philippine Alexander Mc Queen, or it´s just quite that, that he tries to “copy” the one and only… who knows, anyway, the heels are damn rocking!!!

M/M (Paris) x Kanye West x Geore Condo Silk Scarvs

On the 9th of May a limited series of silk scarves designed in a collab of M/M Paris, the artist George Condo and Kanye West will be launched available at Colette. The topic, which is strongly “depicted” on the designs is “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy”, name of the fifth studio album by Kanye West. The first image, which was also used for the album cover was banned in the US.
Mr West: “Banned in the USA!!! They don’t want me chilling on the couch with my phoenix!”

Topshop: The Prada copy

Yes, even I, as one of the biggest partisans of the fast fashion brand Topshop, have to admit that this is waaay to obvious of an imitation. The espadrille wedges just look like a cheap reproduction of the espadrilles by Prada for SS11.

Vanitas: Doggy-style bangle

Since I said the next trend dog, dog in trend or wht ever is the dachshund, I was paying more attention to where the sausage dog appears and the yesterday in the small town Lucca in a nice store called Vanitas I found these lovely armlets with dogs and for sure there was a dachshund one as well ^^

Urban Outfitters: Shoe club

 
  I wouldn´t want you to wear these shoes by
  Won Hundred, because there are probably one
  of the ugliest I have seen in a while, but still you
  should enter into the “Shoe Club” of Urban
  Outfitters you could win a pair of shoes and the
  you just for sure do not choose these! ;)

 

American Apparel: Cork Watch

As I already saw on the Linea Pelle in Bologna there is a new trend in cork. The material will not only be used for shoe heels, but also for other things such as this watch that I found at American Apparel “Luxury Ladies Cork Analog Wristwatch”. The funny things is, this is a vintage piece. So once again the perfect example, everything works in cycles and comes back at one point.



(My only question would be, how can American Apparel have that many of the Dead Stock “Vintage” piece?!?)

Melissa: Duck

Newest release by Melissa. One of the so called Disney shoes… however for me it rather looks like a rubber duck shoe. This would be the perfect shoe for Ernie and Bert on a girls night out (when u know what I mean ^^).

Milano: Salone del Mobile Pics

Big bus + Polimoda friends + drive + furniture trends + hot guys on the streets = great inspirations and lots of fun

Eelko Moorer: Interview 18.04.2011

The guy who killed a bear… no not really the bear laying on his floor is only made of rubber, but just as crazy sick as having a real one and that is probably why we like it! Rockin!!!



Another “work” of him, or pieces of art, or shoes, what ever we my call it are his famous stilts (he obviously simply calls them stilts ^^).



Based in London, he works on a freelance basis for companies, individual customers and on self-initiated projects. Some of the questions asked during his open talk at Polimoda:

Why do you use rubber?
“Rubber makes it toylike and subversal. - that´s interest, not necessarly a sexual interest. ^^”

Is everything possible?
“No. You have to see what the material is telling you and get your hands on the problem start and see what is possible.”

Is being commercial bad?
“No it´s not (incomprehensible look on his face). It opens up many opportunities, as you have a more financial stable situation. And also working in a team is great.

… well commercial or not, fashionable or not- I can get my eyes of this rubber bearskin! Epic! ^^

H&M HOME: New Line for home living

Offically offical, H&M did it!
They finally introduced the home living collection to Germany. Just as their clothing line, this home living line is fashionable and affordable. Fast Home Fashion.



And not only that during the opening of the Frankfurt H&M Home Pop-Up-Store a whole new shopping system was introduced. While you usually have to carry around all that stuff you like, with this new system you collect small pics of the pieces you like and at the cashier the staff will put all the thing together you want- handy.
