Cool Hunting
The winner of last year’s International Talent Support Diesel Award was a young fashion designer from Sweden by the name of Daniel Ivarsson. A graduate of London’s Royal College Of Art, he was chosen as the winner for his “Odyssey Of Black” collection inspired by Rock 'n' Roll, bikers and tattoos. Daniel’s prize was a stint at the Diesel headquarters in Italy designing a five-piece capsule collection for Diesel. This creative enterprise is now complete and Daniel’s mini collection, carrying a customized label with his name, was recently presented at the Diesel flagship store in London. Daniel’s five pieces—in black of course—for the menswear collection, complement Diesel’s edgy street style aesthetic while also bringing in some interesting angles and cutting techniques to distinguish his individual style. The Daniel Ivarsson Diesel Collection will be available to buy in flagship Diesel stores worldwide starting in April.

While the fledgling experiment of democracy is still fledgling, the Portland, Oregon-based company has expanded their line of irreverent and humorous wears. Aside from an update on that particularly ominous theme, these hand-dyed printed shirts extol the tough-guy Abe Lincoln and the need for some domestic humanitarian intervention. “Our shirts are intended...
Western Massachussetts-basedTurn Nocturnal design studio is the brainchild of designer Matt McInerney and his good friend Jack Strong. Busting onto the scene a few months ago with their best selling font driven "Huge Type Looks Sweet" t-shirt ( still a favorite of mine) they've since followed up with a few others, their latest is "Turn The City and is available, along with Huge Type...
by Valery JosephThe designers behind Los Angeles-based Solid Gold Rags are sparing us the search for the perfectly worn-in t-shirt with a new line of beautifully tattered tees. Screen-prints of pop-culture icons—French singers and muses Françoise Hardy and Serge Gainsbourg front two of the collection's pieces—the almost criminally soft shirts. Co-founders Perry Shimon, and Oliver Kupperhe seek to create quietly personal, everyday pieces that...
Australia-based and South Africa-born, Michelle Legge is the brains behind the brand new cutting-edge casual label Toddy. Taking a unique approach to the vanilla offerings of sleepwear and casual fashion, this debut designer is set for cult status with a line of innovative, stylish and above all else, comfortable clothing. CH caught up with Legge to discuss leggings, design and imaginary sausage dogs. What's...
A deceivingly funny t-shirt from Kaws using his trademark Mickey Mouse-esque cartoon hands, it just about sums up the complicated set of feelings I have about New York City (and everything else) these days. (Also see Public School's similar expression of dueling emotions.) Available in black and white from We Sold Out for €65. via Highsnobiety...
