DENIM GALLERY CAFÉ
This unique concept café/retail location is the brainchild of Michel Menard. He uses his showroom as a retail location where clients can shop for brands such as Timex, Levis, Ray Ban, Converse, Landyachtz Longboards and Vancouver designed Herschel Bags, while drinking Lavazza Coffee and noshing on grilled cheese sandwiches. Food and fashion-what could be better? 906 Main Street, Vancouver.
TAILFEATHER HAIR EXTENSIONS
One of the biggest trends in hair is the feather extension, and taking it one step further are the hair artists over at IS Salon in Vancouver. They have released a selection of hand painted, human hair extensions in a variety of animal patterns. Each one is hand painted by the creative mind behind Tailfeather, Malissa Jaffers. Don’t live in Vancouver? Don’t worry, they also sell them on online. [photo: Eric Cairns]
THE TENTS-DOCUMENTARY
Every year there is a film based on the fashion industry that has people talking. This year is no exception. James Belzer’s The Tents was released in September during NYFW. This documentary takes a look at the history of NYFW and the tents at Bryant Park that have become as iconic as the designers that show their collections in them. Lots of fashion luminaries, from NY Fashion Week’s founder, Suzy Menkes, Betsey Johnson, Caroline Herrera, Donna Karan, Isaac Mizrahi, and many more reveal the chaotic and dangerous truth behind the Bryant Park tents.
