LTB S/S 2012 Women's Lookbook

LTB-05.jpg


The Turkish lifestyle brand LTB's Women's S/S 2012 collection has a lot of what I call "fun" jeans. No dark blue stretchy here.What's cool about these jeans is that they fit in a slouchy way, otherwise they would not be climbing up this mountain!

LTB jeans are reasonably priced between $100 and $135 and can be bought on the LTB website.

Introducing: J And Company Preview F/W 2012

J and Company-W12-01.jpg


I just kinda "stumbled" over this amazing brand the other day, while I was checking out what's new at the NY ENK tunnel show. What stopped me in my tracks was the way J and Company was displaying their clothes all over their quite expansive space. Instead of just hanging them on the racks, the sales people went and dressed the clothes, they laid them down on the floor and tables to show how to mix and match them.

The designers and the sales team were talking passionately to the customers and were absolutely convinced of their beautiful collection. And rightly so. As they were so busy, I didn't have the chance to ask many question. Let me just tell you for now, that this brand is showing its first ever collection for F/W 2012. It is a collaboration between a French and a Chinese designer. And, I am telling you, we are in for a treat. The lookbook is in the making and should be up here within a month.

!tem S/S 2012 Women's Lookbook

ITEM-2012-F-06.jpg


! was invited to go to !tem's Spring/Summer 2011 launch party at the Ace Hotel in NYC. !t was an intimate happening with only a few selected guests, and ! was one of them. VIP treatment all the way, delicious food, champagne, wine, my beloved diet cokes (! am an addict!) and ! got to meet the brand's CEO, Kimmy. What an amazing lady. She explained to me that !tem is a "fashion forward" brand, meaning that whatever they are showing now, will be considered "fashion" in a year or so more ahead.

Check out their complete orange and royal blue looks. And what's so cool about their jeans was that they are not skinny-skinny, but slouchy-skinny, so much more edgy. ! have always favored this style because it is so much more comfortable than those extreme skinny jeans where taking a simple breath is an adventure!

MiH S/S 2012 Lookbook

MiH-SS12-1994_.jpg


MiH's looks for Summer 2012 are totally in sync with what we have come to expect of this British brand. Remember Jane Birkin in her famous trouser jeans - well, I am thrilled that they added them this time in almost the same bleached wash as that first pair Jane wore. These were included previously, however always in a darker wash.

Openmarket S/S 2012 Lookbook

OpenMarket-SS12-06a.jpg


OPENMARKET was founded in 2010 by Kevin Chen, formerly of MEK Denim. This lookbook shows some very cute "oiled" models.I like the color of the jeans shown below, although I have not been able to really tell if they are actually turquoise or if the lighting of this picture is just reflecting a kind of lighter blue shade. Generally, judging by this lookbook, their jeans seem to be on the slimmer side, a style that I absolutely love seeing on guys.

I hope to be able to check out this brand personally one of these days and will keep you posted.
