J.C. RAGS – Spring/Summer 2010 Collection
The denim world can only take so much of Diesel or G-Star Raw products, but if you’re looking for an alternative that has close to the similar aesthetics as these two, you might want to check out Dutch label J.C. RAGS. With a more simpler, yet cooler take on the product, RAGS understands that denim is part of a workwear culture that has existed way before the jean became the grand fashion statement it is today. There’s also a smart, utilitarian, and industrial approach to their designs, which allows the label to go beyond their denim offerings. With that said, expect other items such as shirts, outerwears, sweaters, and more under the line.

As part of their Nepal Project, Apolis Activism partnered up with cycling clothiers Rapha for a special Transit Elite Sweater release. Both brands decided to document the whole process of making the sweater by capturing on video the women of Nepal who produced and knitted this special product. The film not only shines light on the humble hard workers of Nepal, but it also gives us a peak into the beautiful mountain ranges that surround the country. Luckily enough, Shea Parton of Apolis Activism and Cole Maness of Rapha were able to cycle these mountains, and it’s inspiring to see that they were able to capture the sights and sounds of the area by doing the things they’re passionate about.

Calvin Klein – Fall 2010 Show (With Video)
What was best about Calvin Klein’s collection last fall was the sci-fi feel to the clothes. A lot of the pieces, especially the outerwear, had the appearance of clean laser cut lines that almost made the whole range look flawless. This time around Calvin Klein follows up by implementing more of the futuristic looks towards the surface. Rigid embossed textures such as lines, marble print, and scratch patterns could be found on the blazers, suits, and outerwear. There’s also a certain unique luminescence to the leather products as well which sets the collection apart from the other labels this Fall 2010. If you’re version of the future is a bit more subtle, crisp, and clean, then look to the Calvin Klein range for a more intelligent spaced out wardrobe.
