‘Blue car, blue house, blue pit, blue pool.’ editorial with Cintia Dicker by Paul Wetherell for i-D WAAGGH! June 2007.

Sabrina Goh has a penchant for strict achromatic color schemes but this season she’s added discreet dashes of electric blue and coral with much success. One thing Goh’s clothing is not strict with is whether her pieces are womenswear or menswear; they are androgynous through and through. With males donning skinny jeans just as comfortably as females these days and girlfriends making it a habit to steal their boyfriends’ clothes [blazers, jeans, vests], this collection is very much appropriate for right now and reinforces Sabrina Goh’s open-minded spirit. The ripped jeans aren’t your regular ripped jeans, they are hardcore and punk without the messy fraying. Clean rips? How could one not be a fan. Not all of ELOHIM is androgynous though, there are also killer mini dresses atypically textured and structured with unexpected cuts flashing the back or zig-zagging the lapel and cowl necks draping just as they should. There is an obvious reason ELOHIM is getting this follow up feature [see the last feature on CyanaTrendLand].

Amar Feat. Jim Beanz & D.O.E : Masala

Amar is a British-Indian singer and daughter of well know UK singer Mangal Singh. Anyone who keeps tabs on the international music scene or has spent time across the pond in the UK knows that Punjabi vibes mixed with hip hop and modern music is now a genre in itself. Amar does this exotic mix justice by combining Hindi and English vocals to form an eclectic fusion of sounds that blend perfectly. She has contributed her voice to quite a few major projects and is said to be one of a host of artists set to feature on Timbaland’s upcoming Shock value 2. This song “Masala” is the second single off her upcoming album “Show It Off” and is backed by vocal production genius Jim Beanz, rapper D.O.E and to top it all off, a classical Timbaland beat. Grab some curry, naan bread and sit back and enjoy…

Wearable while always one step ahead, Acne brings the Sartorialist out in the shy and understated beau. Leather moto jackets and leather trousers with contrasted suede knee patch details give this guy a tougher edge than the boy in blues wearing a two-tone windbreaker with washed out blue slacks or the monochromatic trench Safari man. While keeping with the Acne aesthetic, the brand manages to take the guy through many contrasting themes seamlessly in the SS 2010 Collection.
