Ethosens Autumn/Winter Ready-to-wear 2010/11 Tokyo
When I first laid eyes on Ethosens’ Fall/Winter 2010/11 Collection, I knew precisely this is neither an ordinary label nor an ordinary collection at all. For Fall/Winter 2010/11, designer Yui Hashimoto takes us on a super special spiritual journey with his menswear collection entitled “COVER OF LIFE / What wraps you?” By that, the Esmod Tokyo Graduate is bringing the idea of birth and life in the limelight – the initiative of being protected in the ultimate safety zone either in a mother’s womb, in love, behind a fence, by emptiness or most evidently in this case, the Japanese designer’s über-charming collection.

Rick Owens Really Rocks!
Plugging the words straight out of the Canadian model Alana Zimmer from a modelinia video, we have the remarkable rhetorical question: “Who doesn’t love a Rick Owens jacket?” Indeed, who doesn’t? Pumped with style yet never robbing individuality, the notable avante-garde American designer’s clothes celebrates glamour and grunge in an all-natural non-chalant way that bubbles in high-voltage coolness to its core. Right now, in our must-buy list are his jaw-dropping brilliant jackets from the Rick Owens Lilies line. The shape and the cut are two details that we fall deeply for. Presented in the picture above from left to right are:
Available online at luisaviaroma.com and in Joyce Boutique and Lane Crawford in Hong Kong.

Riding in car with Hanne
@ Tsim Sha Tsui:
- @ Miss Sixty: Collection looks very in trend with today; and in that way, everything seemed a little safe. Nonetheless, for women, we spotted a fierce jumpsuit with animalia print, black jacket with lavish fur sleeve – very Givenchy in appearance indeed – and a crazy graffiti bubble dress; for men, we liked the tie dye jumpers. It’s very cool!
- @ Energie: Energie has power popeye Tees. 100% mighty cool!
- @ Vivienne Westwood: Be outstanding and have wild fun wearing her leopard print multi-color-stripped dress!
- @ Moussy: The Tees are so nice to touch. You just don’t want to stop touching it. Anyway, they also have some pants with a print that looks very much like Alexander McQueen’s signature dogtooth print. It’s a good alternative, but Moussy’ll never be the same as McQueen.
- @ Y-3: Trompe l´oeil seems to be an ‘it’ thing in fashion these days. Y-3 also has Tees with those lively prints.
- @ Lane Crawford: In love with green framed sunnies from Gucci and Prada.
- @ Joyce: Love the beautiful cut in Damir Doma’s collection. It instantly makes me want to be a man!
- @ Y’s Yohji Yamamoto: Sales staff at Y’s Yohji Yamamoto looked so super bored. *yawn yawn yawn*
- @ Missoni. Saw a huge billboard with Hanne’s face. It made me feel like I was cruising freely with her away from the great flood of people and in the beautiful country side[1]. Oh… It makes me want their catalog/lookbook so badly, but they probably don’t have one for customers.
- @ Dsquared: An instore event attracted lots of very important fashion people and a handful of wannabes hanging instore and outside sipping bubbly champagne and enjoying the high life. Spotted woman wearing Givenchy open toe bootie and Balmain power pagoda shoulder jacket. She looked like a fashion victim.

Swedish model Julia Hafstrom created a Storm in Marios Schwab
@ Joyce:
-Brilliant Brits – Mary Katrantzou and Marios Schwab – bedazzled Joyce with their all bubbling creativity. Mario Schwab’s red Swarovski jewel encrusted dress (as worn by Swedish model Julia Hafström on Dazed and Confused’s August 2009 cover) is in particular captivating in real life!
-Hot items to watch out for include:
