180g – The Garment Painters

2. December 2009 DIY & Customizing, Shoes & Sneakers Judith

180grammes_nike_limited_1180grammes_nike_limited_3Nicolas Chevallier is rather a painter than a designer. With his young label 180g the French is turning what appears as a funny idea into an attractive business model: he paints clothes. An he paints them in a way that makes them even look better than before. One look at the Nike`s might be enough to explain what he`s aiming for. I like. Wich he could get over to paint my wardrobe mistakes into most-loved pieces. (more…)

Flaek – Sneakers 2.0

29. August 2009 Fashion 2.0, Rare & Limited, Shoes & Sneakers Judith

flaek_sneakers4When a graduate project becomes a sneaker brand it´s Flaek.  Sven and Oliver, two German media-design students aimed high when they came up with the idea to create nothing less than „the best sneaker. Ever“. While their fellow students hustle pixels on their monitors, the pals who consider themselves as sneaker-holics go for real stuff.

While British artist Rob Ryan is famous for his unusual paper cuts and screen prints
the fabulous Tatty Devine Girls Harriet Vine and Rosie Wolfenden are known for their unconventional – sometimes quirky – accessories that achieved art status.

And know – to come to an end: Roby Ryan hooked-up with Tatty Devine to create a limited edition jewellery line based on theme´s from Rob Ryan´s work. The jewellery is incorporated in Ryan´s unique paper cut´s for an exhibition at the Brick Lane shop´s gallery and turned out very unique. My favorite piece is the heart necklace: “Life and love are made up of the simple small things, which make up all the pieces of our hearts”. Unfortunately, the jewellery is high priced…so you better get ready for a beau that has this artsy taste on the one hand…and a filled petty cash on the other :-)
