Without releasing any camouflage edition, Hermès enrolls the counterfeit war and claims 30,000 euros from Ebay at the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Troyes, France.
All that because eBay allegedly permitted transactions with fake Hermès and also took commission on the sales. Believing this to be an unfair war against counterfeiting because they’re going for the [...]

$37,500 Gucci Yellow Crocodile Hysteria Bag
Why not? Crocodiles are hard to catch, everybody knows that! Fetching one, removing all the skin, nasty job! Someone has to pay a fair price, right?
I like yellow. It brightens up my day! And the Gucci Spring-Summer 2008 was a beautiful collection for me. Sunflowers, black-white-yellow, it’s all joy! However, a crocodile handbag, be it [...]

Marc Jacobs Reveals Another Victoria Beckham Ad Print
I looked and looked at these two new releases from the oh-so-fabulous advertising campaign for Marc Jacobs and still don’t feel my logic sense kicking in.
I’ll take up the story teller road maybe somewhere along the way, bells start ringing. In the first picture we’re honored with a house-wife-ish Posh all foetus-like-lied-down sucking up her [...]

Kathleen Dustin’s Original Evening Bags Too Daring?

Prada Trembled Blossoms 2008 Outrageousness Continues
Even from the moment it was presented, the Prada Spring Summer 2008 Campaign literally freaked me out.
The Trembled Blossoms animation film is an offense to the eye and the common good sense, not to mention good old education. Aside from the colors featured in the film, truly beautiful, the idea of that asexuate nymph biblically [...]

Oh, that Monogramouflage!
And it’s officially out! The new Monogramouflage from Louis Vuitton and Takashi Murakami looks like this. Have to say I’d expected something little less on the war side…
In fact it was a secret hope for something less monogramouflage than real-life-army camouflage. But then again, fashion’s at war (at least with Marc Jacobs) so there’s no [...]

Would you Pay $260 to Have Footprints on Your Longchamp Handbag?
I remember when I wanted to buy the “Pliage” Longchamp. Then I reconsidered myself because everybody had a Pliage of their own.
I’m one of those fashion egoists who loves to have one of a kind things. It was one of the reasons I liked vintage so much. Even if it’s so very practical, this Longchamp [...]

Takashi Murakami Collections for Louis Vuitton
In searching for news about these days controversial Marc Jacobs monogramouflage and hoping to get an idea about it, I found a clip of the advertising campaign for Superflat Monogram by Takashi Murakami for Marc Jacobs (ahem.. Louis Vuitton).
Crocheting away on Alice in Wonderland Theme, this clip is a manga dream, in ways that only [...]
