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]

Good In Grey - Vivienne Westwood Jacket

If you don't look good in this, then chances are you don't look good in anything, and you should just find a secluded place in the middle of the woods somewhere and off yourself. That said, this jacket works for me in several ways. It looks like it would bring a real sharp note to a casual ensemble. I am always a fan of elaborate or colorful lining inside of black or grey jackets. The integrated waistcoat invites you to wear it with the outer jacket open, which plays extremely well... besides, from what I can see here the outer jacket doesn't have buttons anyway, which is a nice touch. Speaking of buttons... the choice of the translucent "hazel" buttons to offset the color of the stitch and the fabric attests to the genius of Vivienne Westwood. [Via Coggles]

Deal Addiction - Black Fried Day Edition

Tomorrow, over here in the US of A, is a holiday called Thanksgiving where we eat turkey and go around the table lying about what we're thankful for. Never-mind that wretched holiday because the very next day is the annual consumer extravaganza known as Black Friday, where every store in America scratches and claws their way into your pockets by offering you deals that are much too good to be true. Lucky for you, we have compiled a list of real deals to help you spend the rest of your pay check for the week. Enjoy poverty! At least you'll look good.

Hyden Yoo - AW 2009

I am all about layers, especially in the colder months of the year here on the east coast (of the USA). Hyden Yoo shows these pieces off well in that way. These photos remind me of the best dressed time in my life... middle school. I think I wore button-ups every day of the year in 7th and 8th grade. Check out the full post for some of our favorite looks.

Veronique Branquinho - A/W 2009 (Men's)

While flamboyant flashiness may be a mainstay in the repertoire of some, one does not always need 37 or even 15 pieces of flair to express oneself (see Office Space). Many occasions merit a simple, classy approach. I turn to Veronique Branquinho once again for a classic men's collection with just enough flair to keep your assistant manager happy. More pics in the full post.

Lyle & Scott - Harrington Jacket

When I first noticed Lyle & Scott, I was completely enamored by the simplicity, yet overall quality of their golf inspired polos, in the same way that Lacoste and Polo have become staples in my closet and many of your closets over the years... but then... the polo addict in me got muted (for obvious reasons) when I saw the Harrington Jacket over at Attic... the jacket quest continues. Detailed pics of 2 coloways in the full post.

IM KING - Hooligan Jacket

I saw this sick jacket the other day over at 80's Purple... the Hooligan jacket... Props to IM KING for this one. Doubling up on the gold zip pockets on each side is cash. I'm feeling how the shoulder flaps further define the structure. Look closely to see the IM KING logo on the snaps. It comes in Navy or Plum. See the full post for detailed views.

Carl Gross - Blazer Barrage

A unique, well designed blazer can add depth to even the simplest, most casual of outfits. Carl Gross must have got the memo. Does anyone know who sells these in the US? More detailed pics after the jump...
