Michael Bastian seems like a pretty sensible guy. His attention to texture, tailoring, and utilitarian elegance are pretty outstanding. In addition to his eponymous label, he has cooked up an accessibly preppy line for GANT, bringing some street cred to the freshly re-designed brand. Take a peek below!

Round three of the H&M HIV/AIDS prevention campaign! For the S/S 2010 season, with music festivals as inspiration, suitable muses Lou Dillon and Elizabeth Jagger model the goods. I’m not so into purple leopard print, or paisley, but it works. Plus, the fact that they included (a super cheap) tent and sleeping bag in this collection (and produce this campaign) is pretty awesome. The low price tag may equate to a potentially soggy festival evening, but at least you’ll stand out.
Nina Persson, mastermind behind The Cardigans and A Camp is taking a stab at designing via Swedish label Hope for their Fall 2010 collection. Unlike most musicians turned fashion curators, she’s actually done a great job! Plus, she’s actually honest about her feelings on the fashion world. More reasons why Nina Persson is utterly charming in this Style.com interview.
Speaking of gentlemen, a video of one of my favorites, Sir Paul Smith, reveals that he is shockingly more of an obsessive hoarder collector than I.
Absolutely superb choices and photos by GQ for their feature on the 50 Most Stylish Leading Men of the Past Half Century. Handsome men, Handsome taste.
This might be the most mindblowingly well done collection i’ve ever seen.
The highly influential, highly stylish, highly beautiful, short lived magazine edited by the highly elegant (and insanely long lived) Fleur Cowles has me in a tizzy each time I see it. Collecting pennies for the compilation I saw in Partners & Spade last week, and the individual issues available via ebay. If you beat me to the chase, well, at least show me your copies…
For Supreme?!? Read all about it.
Charmingly bitchy, beautifully disenchanted majorettes.
quand bien même
