Bassike Spring/Summer 2011
Collections for Spring and Summer 2011 are here! This is the first look at Australian label Bassike shown during Rosemount Australian Fashion Week. The collection proved to be one of RAFW favorites featuring double denim, heavy black and white stripes, Rodarte-esque knits and origami folding. needless to say, the Bassike runway was anything but basic. What I liked best about the collection was the casual tops and dresses for women pictured here.
The splurge: Gucci Cruiser Bicycle
In the heat of summer, there is nothing more enjoyable than cruising around on a fashionable bicycle, like, say the Gucci Cruiser Bicycle bike! This bike comes in black or while, complete with Gucci-ized handlebars, seat and side pack. Aside from being one of the most amazing investment pieces of the season, it also doubles as a true designer work of art!

A social event celebrating Halo Republic’s official launch with San Francisco Bay Area’s fashion mavens
(San Francisco, CA): Halo Republic is pleased to announce its official launch, to be held on Saturday, May 29th 2010 from 6-9pm at one of San Francisco’s most elegant new venues: Press Club (20 Yerba Buena Lane). Under the direction of Owen Buenaventura, Del Geronimo, Ivan Yartsev, and Virginie Suos, Black V is the premier fashion event for fine style connoisseurs looking to toast an evening of beautiful fashion, with photo shoot and special guest appearances. The fashion show starts at 8pm and features designs by Bacca Da Silva, Dcepcion, Alexandria Von Bromssen, Tamo Design, and Joseph Domingo as well as jewelry designers Kaatje and Mike Sg.
In addition to being a unique showcase of impressive couture and finely tailored garments, the event promises to attract the participation of some of the most creative makeup artists, trend setting hair stylists and stunning runway models including San Francisco Institute of Esthetics and Cosmetology and SF modeling agencies. Black V also features SF-based indie rock band The Family Crest to infuse live orchestral sound to the DJ’s music.
According to creative director Owen Buenaventura,
“Black V stands for dark and voluptuous- Valentine, Vamp, Vendetta or Victory.” He adds, “The concept of this exciting event is to create a relaxed environment that is yet edgy, vampy, sexy, cultish and mysterious for fashionistas. Style code will be fashionably black!”
Fashion representatives (stylists, photographers, retailers, editors and bloggers), selected VIP’s, and corporate sponsors are sure to enjoy this event. Black V is open to the public with a suggested donation of $20 to benefit Stellar | San Francisco Fashion Awards, a non-profit organization that recognizes outstanding and creative talents in SF bay area.
As the sexiest underground fashion production in San Francisco with a reputation of attracting some of the city’s most influential industry leaders, it is no surprise that Halo Republic has turned to the Press Club. In downtown San Francisco, Press club is a wine bar offering an exclusive array of wines direct from six Northern California’s most acclaimed wineries. The luxuriously modern interior features dedicated tasting bars, and social sipping lounges that will make the social experience even more stylish, and seductive.

H&M Swimwear 2010 Ad Campaign
H&M’s swimwear 2010 ad campaign features supermodels Daria Werbowy, Julia Stegner, Erin Wasson, Sasha Pivovarova and Lara Stone (they all look fabulous here). The new swimwear collection will be launching this month, shot by photographer Patrick Demarchelier at St. Barts in the Caribbean. The swimwear collection mixes safari with ethnic detailing and prints. I totally dig the mismatch trend thats carrying over from last season.
In video’s that launched with the ad campaign, all five models talked about their best beach memories (smart marketing move by H&M). Check out the videos on hm.com.

Open to the public from May 8 until October 2011, the Roche Bobois-sponsored suite features nautical and natural details, such as navy striped walls and garden prints.
“Clothes are my vocation, and as I only know how to dress, I dressed this Elle Decoration Suite… with various notes that already reside in my collections,”
Gaultier says in the release, citing green, marine, reflective and satin influences.
