LOUIS VUITTON

I am completely compelled by the whole idea behind the latest Louis Vuitton show.
Marc Jacobs explored the world of a ladies boudoir for his inspiration this season.
The set was a hotel corridor with lots of oak stained doors where the models
emerged from. They were all scantily clad and looking incredibly glamorous yet
somewhat bored. The whole idea being 'why going out when you can stay in'? and also
exploring the idea of alluring, rich women who are all dressed up with nowhere to go.

This show is incredibly decadent and seductive.

JACQUEMUS // AUTUMN // WINTER //2013

Self taught French designer Simon Porte Jaquemus showed his latest collection at a
public swimming pool in Paris. The range was inspired by French actress Isabelle Adjani
and the video to her song 'Pull Marine'. I hadn't heard of Jaquemus until today but I will
now follow his designs as I really love this unusual show and the pieces themselves.

MICHELLE WILLIAMS // BURBERRY

Michelle Williams looking incredible in a peacock dress from the Burberry Spring/Summer 2013 range.

JOHN MAUS

We Must Become Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves is the last album from John Maus.
It is, by far, one the best albums I have heard. I am a little obsessed at the
moment.

John Maus is 33 and is from Minnesota. He has played keyboard for Animal Collective,
Panda Bear and Ariel Pink, all who I adore. John Maus doesn't sound like any of
them though, he has a sound unlike anything I have heard. There is a huge eighties feel
to his music and along with the use of synthesisers and drum machines he creates something
rather wild. The wonderful thing about the last album is how diverse it is. One track can
be a pretty banging synth-pop gem and the next is hauntingly beautiful.

NEED SUPPLY

Here are some of lovely summery pieces from Need Supply.

SIRIUSMO

I have started listening to Siriusmo recently. He is a German music producer based in Berlin.
This track is incredible, especially if you turn it up real loud.

RICHARD NICOLL

London designer Richard Nicoll has produced an incredible collection
for Autumn/Winter 2013. Combining PVC and pastels he creates a very
sexy yet elegant show.

TRAVESS SMALLEY

Here are some amazing shirts from New York based artist, Travess Smalley.
I saw his exhibition in Glasgow a few months ago, it was amazing. I have
since learned that he uses his designs on clothes.

JF & SON is a company based in Manhattan that stock local artists designs.
You can buy Travess Smalley's stuff from them.

These Men's summer shirts are incredible. They are so unusual and look incredibly
well made.
