Comme des Garçons For H&M Collection Lookbook

It was enough excitement when Comme des Garçons founder Rei Kawakubo announced her roles in the upcoming collaboration between H&M producing a range of collection since April 2008 (!!! for the news), now it comes the time to unveil the outcome of this collaboration.

Yea we admit the previous artist collaboration between H&M and several famed artists on the Fashion Against AIDS campaign was a great result (at least that's what we thought), we foresee a greater success and achievements from this range since CDG fans have been waiting for this moment to come, and to H&M followers who wants something different than the usual style they provide, something a little more avant-garde, experimental, unique, special, outstanding, impressive, i'd say.

Thanks to Rei Kawakubo, you can enjoy those mentioned above with H&M now. We managed to adapt some clear images on how the collections looks like, both men and women. For a bigger image of the products, you can get better vision through the source, nitrolicious.




















Like what the images have spoken through unheard vocals, the collection seemed to be bombarded with all over print dots and cut & sew features.

Trousers London F/W '08 Release

A new kid on the block worth the mention in this blog through it's bold creativity, new label Trousers London is a premium denim company based in London launched this year.

The Happy Hollows - Imaginary EP

The Happy Hollows is a LA-based indie noise pop band featuring three young brilliant minds composing skillful infectious noisy tunes.

The band's raucous and irreverent noisy-pop sound is influenced by genres as disparate as 90's college rock, Broadway show-tunes, garage punk, and 80's pop. The band combines innovative song structures, surreal lyrics, and fiercely adept instrumentation to recreate reality into a jagged panorama of vibrant, kaleidoscopic collage.

A new EP entitled Imaginary is something spankin' new from the group and will be released to the public on October 21.

An EP that is an amalgamation of contemporary alt-rock, distorted atonality, and exuberant yelp. Produced by David Newton (founding member of C-86 legends The Mighty Lemon Drops and producer of The Little Ones), Imaginary articulates the band’s inherent magic.


Great stuffs are meant to be shared to mass, and something we thought it's interesting and thoughtfully built with talent. A case which proves noise can be effectively transmitted to a rhythmic frequency.


Crooks & Castles Online Exclusives

Crooks & Castles recently unleashed a batch of online exclusive tees available on their online store. There's the torn type font tee, the iconic bandito tee, and a gorgeous snake face tee.
