Eastpak Looks To The Streets for Inspiration and Models

Eastpak showed they’ve been doing their homework. This spring-summer 2010 collection of urban street wear and bags truly reflects the now in youth culture in Berlin and around the world.

Disheartening Day One for Berlin Fashion Week

Berlin Fashion Week is only a few seasons old, and the industry there is still finding its global voice and international footing. Each year they seem to get better, but the first day of presentations for the Spring-Summer 2010 collections proved very disheartening for those of us hoping this will be the season where Berlin became relevant in the global fashion scene.

CoSTUME NATIONAL designer Ennio Capasa has said about his new collection, “I wanted to bring a symbolic jungle into a metropolis; a jungle made of emotions that would take us back to our deeper, more authentic side; recharging us with harmony and joy.” We read the words, but we don’t see the execution, unless that organic metropolis is supposed to be represented by the junior partners at a post-apocalyptic architectural firm. … Continue Reading
