First came across Katie Eary last winter in an advertisement for Dazed & Confused. Loved the images she used in her advertisements but after researching her, realised her speciality was combining animal prints with street-wear. As a not so animal print lover I wasn't swayed by Katie, however I recently came across her AW13 film and was in absolute awe. The video is extremely intriguing and captures her raw-edge animal essence. Check out her website! http://www.katieeary.co.uk/
NEWGEN promoted London designer, J.W Anderson made a pretty big introductory impact when his collection was first show at London Fashion Week 2007, during the last three years his work has progressed dramatically! After seeing his Summer/Spring 2013 collection for London Fashion Week this year, I was quickly swayed into becoming an Anderson fan! Check him out, www.j-w-anderson.co.uk
Everywhere I look recently, terrible printed shirts are making a very unnecessary appearance. I don't know what it is about the shit shirt epidemic, but people have clearly lost their way in the vintage wormhole - particularly young males sporting a snapback and pulled up gym socks....I'm all in for people being 'fashion forward' but the whole 'vintage 80's' dressing seems to have resulted in people quite literally playing dress up. Worked on a bar at a 3-day festival gig type over summer and was introduced to 'ShiteShirts' by a middle-aged bald typical yorky requesting a bottle of champers who was sporting one of the favourable shirts that included pink polka dots and yellow pin stripes. Through all his slurring and falling he so very kindly wrote down the address of the website on a damp Fosters beer mat. www.shiteshirts.com is quite literally a website that sells.....shite shirts, I guess it's good if you're into all that fancy shirt wearing, but if you're more boring and monochrome (like myself) I suggest to stay away.
