Bless came up with these shades for next spring & summer. Definitely different that any other ones.

Digital Portraits is project by mashallah.design and Linda Kostowski.

Three people are portrayed by turning their 3D data into 2D sewing patterns and converting these into articles of clothing. Linked with their biographical memories, a digital twin of the body is created.

I saw Tom Price his PP Blue Rope Meltdown Chair for the first time over a year ago when he presented it during the Salone del Mobile in Milan. Apparently he made more variations of the initial chair with different materials. The production technique is quite simple. You take a pile of some sort of plastic, then you press a very hot metal seat in it and you’re done. These ones are made with fleece clothing. Excellent!

Another season, another Maison Martin Margiela Artisanal collection. My 2 favs: the Evening Suit and the Balloons Jacket.

Miami Arty Girl, photographed by Benjamin Nitot.

Chained by Gori de Palma.

And as bonus, this little coat made of shoe laces.

Louis Vuitton and Comme des Garçons openend a pop-up store in Tokyo last week. This means of course that they will sell exclusive products like this multi-handle bag. It reminds me of Rodolphe Dogniaux his design for the ‘Prix Emile Hermes’.

Some of the Mad Men cast members did a shoot for Playboy. No it’s not Joan or any of the other girls, it is a fashion spread with the guys in their vintage-inspired suits. Not even Don is in it.

The adidas Y-3 is one of the few websites who relaunch twice a year. It’s a fashion thing I guess, adidas Y-3 is a cooperation between adidas and Yohji Yamamoto. Over the years, the website was always on the forefront of Flash based web design. But it is nice to see that they are cutting down on the effects and go for a more straight forward approach. I’ve noticed this on many websites lately, simplicity is making a big comeback. So maybe the spring/summer 2009 website will be mix between Flash and HTML.

This womens shoe called ‘Molnet’ is definitely one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen with 3 stripes on. It is so hideous that is cool again, just never ever put those red things on.
