Paco Peregrin and Kattaca are without a doubt my favorite Spanish fashion production team. Their photos and styling are dynamic on so many levels. We have featured Paco Peregrin before, but this is the first time we pay praise to the stylists, Kattaca, and them as a whole. The sense of fantasy and lush is absolutely overwhelming in their READ MORE
And its again André and his graffiti character Mr. IX the star of this viral video for the Belvedere IX Vodka campaign. A pretty cool video where Mr. IX come to life and invades NY, from the Bowery Hotel to André’s own Club Beatrice. Its also interesting to see how the Belvedere IX campaign has been spread all over the internet, You cannot miss it ! From this viral video to the fully customed theme the campaign has been everywhere… Also a little exclu for you, André will open really soon his own club in LA, and you can never imagine where !? At the Magic Castle, yes sir!! Look forward to some crazy parties…
Converse concept designer, Timothy Liles, has developed this All Star espadrille exclusively for Urban Outfitters. It looks like a mix between a Tom’s and a Chinese Mao slipper, nothing really to do with an espadrille, but ok. They are cute and clever but the quality looks like a straight “C”, then again most Tom’s and shoes and others in that group are not really about quality, just a quick fix for a shoe and a replacement for a flip-flop. I guess the price point of these babies will make or break them for me, I say no more that $18, but they have not called to ask me my thoughts yet.
For the 5th day of our WAD Marathon I would like to feature an editorial praising the style and character of Karl Lagerfeld, entitled K as in Karl. Lagerfeld’s style has become an iconic style reference. So much that even his peer, designer Roberto Cavalli came dressed as Lagerfeld for last years Halloween Ball in New York. They did a great job on the casting and styling of this shoot, each character looks like a reincarnation of Lagerfeld. Lovely!
Stay tuned for more of the WAD Marathon as we make our way to Day 6.

For his first French exhibit, photographer Todd Selby and Colette have collaborated to do a Selby Pop-up shop inside Collette. Todd Selby has taken over the walls of the Colette shop with his images and curated the Selby Space. He has produced a book of his photos specifically for this exhibit. We have been following his blog, The Selby, for awhile now and it is always super intriguing to enter into someones home from a bird’s eye view and see the scene. The space he has created inside Colette definitely carries the same charm and intrigue that his blog projects. This is a great collab on Colette’s part!
