Designer Interview - A.Hallucination

A few weeks ago we were contacted about the launch of a new London based label known as A.Hallucination. A.Hallucination co-designer, Chung Chung Lee asked us to check out their new A/W 2010 collection, as it would be their "great pleasure" if we could help to introduce it to our readers. So we had a look, and, needless to say, we loved what Chung Chung Lee, along with co-designer Hwan-Sung Park put together for A.Hallucination's debut collection. Seeing the opportunity to showcase this label in its early stages, I asked if Chung would like us to take our feature of A.Hallucination a a step further, and allow us to interview them. Chung agreed, so we present to you an unedited glimpse into the minds of these talented designers.

Holland Esquire - Sand Gent Pipe Jacket

Let me first preface this by saying that Nick Holland is a "G". The man certainly knows his craft. The Holland Esquire Hand Customised collection, highlights the complexities of suit construction by emphasizing the individual pattern pieces of the build, as the Gent Pipe Jacket exemplifies. If you are into details like I am, then hit the jump for more views. Check Coggles for even more pieces (for the low). [Via Coggles]

Cipher Seditionary Unboxing and Review

To make a long story short, I ended up corresponding via email with Collin Thompson, the designer behind Cipher, following my post about the Cipher 2010 footwear collection. He offered to send me some shoes to review, and I just couldn't turn that down. Anyway, fast forward to about a week ago, when FedEx leaves a note at our door about a package coming from Hong Kong. Mind you, I had no idea what it was, but chances are if an unidentified package is coming to you from Hong Kong, it must be something epic. Of course FedEx made me wait a whole entire day to find out what gifts The East had in store... and so my journey began...

Drykorn Summer 2010 Photo Shoot Video

I love the tone of this video. I think it matches with the overall persona of Drykorn. Once again Drykorn kills it with their 2010 men's summer collection. I loved what they did for summer 2009, and I'm feeling this latest installment as well. Check out the Drykorn site for the full gallery of men's and women's look.

Get Trashed - TravelTeq Trash Fox And Trash Panther Bags

Anyone who has been reading my posts knows that I am all about the details. TravelTeq Trash Bags... I mean... there's a pocket for everything... I don't know if I'm more impressed by the level of detail in the storage areas, or the level of detail in the handmade craftsmanship... The leather is Italian butter. Not only can you trolley this thing on top of your luggage, but you can safely stow your airline tickets, cellular device, home-rolled cigars, your 15 inch Macbook Pro (or IPad for that matter), and just about any other little unnecessary trinket that you can think of. There's a pocket for that.

Plenty more detailed views in the full post, including diagrams of all the compartments.

The Haunting - Katie Gallagher AW10

The gospel according to Katie:

"I don't believe that fashion is the end goal; stories, personalities, moods, ideals, and attitudes are.  Fashion, when executed successfully, communicates these attributes quickly and eloquently."

Spitfire Black/Gold Clip On Sunglasses

Yesterday, we went organic with the Shwood Eyewear post. Today we go slightly retro with this look from Spitfire. When I first saw them, I thought about the man himself... lady flirting, glasses flipping, fresh jordan wearing... Dwayne Wayne (who single handedly made it cool to wear prescription specs). I was hoping that these could flip up... but alas they don't... Still feeling them though. Too bad they are sold out at Oak. Please drop us a comment if you know anywhere else we can find them. 

*Update* One of our commenters just pointed out that someone is selling these on Amazon. Thanks James.

Eye Wood - Shwood Eyewear

I am not a big fan of people using natural materials just for the sake of using natural materials. That said, I find that Shwood has tapped into something really amazing with their choice of materials... No two pairs can be exactly the same... which is golden in such an unoriginal world. Enjoy the uniqueness. [P/C Shwood
