TEVA GC100 COLLECTION

Posted on 2019-02-25

The Grand Canyon National Park was founded on Feb. 26, 1919 in Arizona, and footwear brand Teva is honoring the 100-year centennial with its spring GC100 Collection. Teva was founded in the surroundings of the Grand Canyon and has taken inspiration from the 6 million-year-old natural wonder for a collection of all-terrain sandals. Each style features a unique strap pattern that takes cues from the Grand Canyon’s layered red rocks, meandering rivers, and spectrum of sunset hues.

Teva is also donating $100K to the Grand Canyon Conservancy to restore trails and fund environmental education programs for underserved youth.

The Hundreds and Heavy Metal have teamed up to deliver fans a limited collection that will live on timelessly like the legendary magazine itself.

POSTER GIRL AUTUMN / WINTER 2019

Posted on 2019-02-18

Autumn/Winter 2019 marks Poster Girl’s move into ‘Series 2.0’ with their first live presentation at London Fashion Week. Held at 180 The Strand within the British Fashion Council’s ‘DiscoveryLAB’, POSTER GIRL welcomed guests into another world outside the monotony and furore of fashion week. Stepping into an immersive, playful scene – The POSTER GIRL Spa was set in a 60’s dreamworld….

As you enter, a receptionist taking appointments on a lip-phone, surrounded by vintage Vogue magazines and stubbed out lipstick stained cigarette butts – attention to detail in this presentation was undeniable. Girl’s standing in their line-up were clad in classic POSTER GIRL draped chainmail dresses, this season with extended hemlines & asymmetric necklines. The additional high-octane element of the labels aesthetic was heightened by new fabrics and surfaces bought in for Series 2.0. Diamanté adorned silken cupro fabrics were custom-made by the designers, picking up every flash and glimmer hit on them by the crowd. Beautiful, heavy hand-dyed silks were in shades of purple, hot pink and navy, uniquely juxtaposed with chrome metal ball-chain straps.
