I went to visit menswear designer Stefán Orschel-Read at his studio to see his new collection, and we were also casting models for his SS 2011 show. His new collection is so beautiful: he uses Sea Island cotton, dupion silk, bamboo, iridescent tonic and cashmere British tailoring wools. I can’t really say more than that, but I’m so excited about styling his show!

I really appreciate that London has a menswear day during Fashion Week. London has such an amazing history of men’s tailoring and men’s fashion that if you have a chance to see any of the shows you really should!

High Security Fashion - This polo-shirt is able to resist bullet-fire ranging from a 9mm pistol to an Uzi submachine gun - who knew?

If you’re in the market ‘High Security Fashion’ makes a polo shirt for $12,000 and worth it! It’s designed by Miguel Caballero, who also makes bulletproof vests, motorcycle apparel and accessories, industrial security and rescue and riot gear. For over 16 years Miguel has been designing specialized and armored personal protection garments for an international client base that includes law enforcement, military personnel, world leaders and VIPs.

The new line for this summer is called ‘Stabproof Fashion’ - it’s a really cool name - but it really is stab proof!

Buying jeans is never as simple as it sounds and few retailers have addressed how difficult it has become for men to find the right pair of jeans - skinny, slim, straight, relaxed and boot cut or the various denim treatments including black coated, vintage wash, raw, organic, crinkle wash or selvedge - what’s a man to chose?. My-Wardrobe.com is trying to simplify it all.

The Eyebrow is back at London Fashion Week

Posted by Rachel Wood on February 28th, 2010

London_Fashion_Week_eyebrows The Eyebrow is back at London Fashion Week This past fashion week has been my busiest one yet. Between NY and London I headed up 9 shows and assisted on 6! All in all it was another wonderfully exhausting couple of weeks.

If I could sum up the major trend between them all, it would be the season of the bushy eyebrow! Brows were a key player on various shows from Alice Palmer to Elliot Frieze. They were pushed up and the hairs were gently drawn in to Brooke Shields in the 1980’s style proportions… think Julia Robert’s brows when she first appeared in the film-Mystic Pizza. I think it gave the male models this season a real sexy Robert Pattison in Twilight feel. In Stefan Orschel-Read’s LFW show all of the male models brows were filled in and extended to have a slight samurai warrior feel.

This great news for those who dread their monthly eye brow wax… just let them grow and keep them as animalistic as you like!
