both are blond.freja and agyness.


Agyness Deyn and Freja Beha Erichsen for Vogue (Januar/February).
Both of them exude feminity; elegant and simple.
Moreover it´s really nice to see that Freja isn´t just the androgynous
girl, who polarizes the fashion world..

a young generation called sykur.

Of late, Reykjavik has been outdoing itself in proffering a veritably groaning selection of creative confectionary; much to the benefit of the sweet teeth and slavering imaginations of the world’s culture vultures. But now, plucked from the top drawer, there is a morsel of such rare succulence that it is sure to gain attention even beyond the cordoning velvet rope that sequesters the art world’s N.I.P (Nearly Important People). Sykur (meaning Sugar) are a nascent 3 piece electro group (Stefán, Halldór and Kristján are 16, 17 and 19 respectively) whose tracks are sweet and fun enough to warrant pleated, waxen presentation cases (by Gazed Digital)

prada menswear by slimane.


Prada is giving a whole new spin to its men’s wear ad campaign for Spring with the help of former Dior Homme designer Hedi Slimane.
This is the first time Slimane has worked with Prada on such a project. Slimane, who resumed his photography career following his exit from Dior last year, took black and white portraits of Louis and Claude Simonon, sons of Paul and Tricia Simonon, the bass player and manager of Punk band The Clash. In a statement, Prada said the brothers were photographed “in moments of reflection and introspection. It is a symbolic yet understated approach to desire in men’s wear; a new classicism with a rebel edge.” The Simonons are still in school in England and neither have previously modeled before or worked with Slimane. The artist has strong ties to the music world and published a photography book entitled, “Rock Diary,” earlier this year. (WWD)
Like a lot of TFS visitors I´m a little bit disappointed...Slimane is replacing Meisel...

somekind of skirt and harem.


Yesterday I saw the Harem-trouser by LOST IN FASHION.
I really like the form; and compared with "normal" trousers it´s definitley unusual but comfortable.
According to LIF you are able to see lots of people wearing the trouser in Denmark. Yeah Denmark. One of the Skandinavians, which is the ascending meeting point for fashion and lifestyle. Here in Germany I haven´t seen neither men nor women who put it on. But the summer will come fast..
