Topman Have Teamed Up With London Fashion Designer Antony Price For A Brand New Range Called Priceless

Topman, the leading UK men’s fashion retailer, has announced its partnership with Antony Price, one of Britain’s most important fashion designers who has been designing clothes for a number of high profile celebrities since the 1960s.

The new range from Antony Price and Topman will focus largely on suits, coats and shirts with an emphasis on tailoring and quality. The collection has a definite 80s influence in the form of cropped jackets, elongated shoulders and slim trousers but has still been created with todays Topman customer in mind. Shirting is available in four styles ranging from a crisp white tuxedo shirt to black and grey military inspired tops whilst astrakan and burgundy fur coats compliment this luxurious collection perfectly.

Antony Price was the man behind some of rock and pop’s most iconic fashion statements. He was stylist for the first eight Roxy Music albums, designed stage clothes for the Rolling Stones’ 1969 US tour and was the man behind the classic “Transformer” album cover for Lou Reed. He has also designed outfits for the likes of David Bowie, Steve Strange and Duran Duran. He currently works from his home in the English countryside, creating made to measure clothing for an elite clientele including the Duchess of Cornwall, while a small range of his clothes are sold in A La Mode, a London boutique.

Gordon Richardson, design and product development director for Topman, commented: ”As a young, eager fashion student in the mid to late 70’s there were very few designers I could aspire to who understood the whole sexy notion of fashion and music that’s now so blithely bantered around. Antony was out there on his own. It’s a pleasure to be able to bring his whole rock and roll fashion aesthetic to a young Topman audience.”

The Priceless range from Antony Price and Topman was launched to the British media at a dinner and party attended by Bryan Ferry, Pam Hogg, Nicky Haslam, Peter York and others at the legendary Mayfair nightclub, Tramp.

Is conservatism the new fashion?

Rolex: Roger Federer, a world-famous famous tennis-star, is obsessed with his Rolex Day Date President at a time where young Hollywood stars have been found sporting newer styles by Cartier, Gucci, and Chanel. Rolex is a much more conservative brand and the Rolex Day Date President which Federer sports is a watch that has primarily worn by America’s CEO’S and presidents, including Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, and, now, even Barack Obama and John McCain. What about this watch’s history is causing so much renewed interest among today’s Hollywood elite?

The Rolex Day Date is also known as the ‘President’ for a very unique reason. The chairman of Rolex presented President Eisenhower with the Rolex Day Date in 1948 to celebrate the victory over the Nazis in World War II. In 1956 Eisenhower’s watch needed a new solid gold bracelet and Rolex delivered to President Eisenhower a new bracelet with a concealed clasp. Soon after, this bracelet became known as the “President” bracelet and the Day Date watch was also nicknamed the “President” watch. Given President Eisenhower’s public love for the watch Rolex officially launched the wristwatch for public sale that year, in 1956 and it became a huge hit.

Rolex introduced a new version of the Day-Date this year, 2008. The new Day-Date watch, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date II, has a new 41 cm case, larger than the old 36 cm case. It also features a Parachrom-blu hair-spring and Paraflex shock-absorber which makes it more resistant to shock and magnetism. Prestigious and classy, the Rolex Day-Date is available in white-gold, yellow-gold, rose-gold and platinum and are priced at around $20,000.00 retail or around $8000 from Preowned Rolex watch retailers such as Melrose Jewelers, http://www.melrosejewelers.com

Given Rolex’s recent boost in popularity it seems that, once again, America has fallen in love with all items affiliated with the Presidency. Both Barack Obama and John McCain have been seen sporting Rolex watches and as we enter an election period, the Rolex Day Date President may become more popular than ever.

EPR Fashion News | Apparel, Fashion, Fashion Retailers, Fashion Trends, Gifts, Men's Fashion, Women's Fashion | Thursday, 23 October 2008

www.SoulRevolver.com has leather jackets for men and women in vintage 70’s style. We also sell movie replica jackets including the Fight Club jacket along with motorcycle/biker and goth/gothic leather jackets.

Soul Revolver began in the business of selling vintage style leather jackets in 2005. We stick by our promise to offer the customer our high-end service in the following areas:

*The finest A1 grade cowhide leather available. We do not believe in taking short cuts with our leather jackets by using the more commonly used, cheaper nappa leather. Instead, we offer higher quality analine cowhide but still keep the price down so you do not have to sacrifice the quality over price. We feel this leather is perfect. It is not to thin, nor too thick. It is quite soft to the touch but not too soft. Definitely not stiff and uncomfortable. This along with our slim fit, the jackets will fit you like a glove, a second skin.

*This leather goes perfectly with our slim fit which is just as important in perfecting our leather jackets. Over the last few years, we have fine tuned the cut. As our jackets are made to order you have the luxury of receiving the leather jacket made just for you. Tall and slim or short and stocky? Not a problem, we will alter the torso and length to be just right for you. We understand that everyone is different. How can a standard size fit everyone? It cant.

*The styles. We stay as true as we can to vintage style leather jackets to make sure the look is authentic. The same applies to our movie replicas. We will get as close as we can and constantly update and perfect our leather jackets until it looks like you plucked it straight from the screen.

*Our service. We believe no matter how nice a product a store sells, it means nothing if the service lacks decency, understanding and patience. Feel free to ask us any questions you’d like regarding styles, leather, fit or anything else. It is your money and we want to make buying from us will be the best leather jacket investment you ever made so we are happy to discuss it over with you before you purchase. We also offer the freephone service in the UK and USA to give you piece of mind when calling us. No high rate telephone charges here, no charge at all.

*The future. We have big plans here at Soul Revolver. We are working on many more vintage styles. We are also going to branch out adding styles in other areas. Keep checking back and read our blog to keep up to date!

Thank you to all our customers over the last three years. You have helped us to grow, adding new leather jacket style and pursue new ideas for the future.

Seattle Musician Jonas De Varona Has Designed A Line Of Clothing And Bags Under The Name Meet Me Here

EPR Fashion News | Apparel, Beauty, Designers, Fashion, Fashion Retailers, Fashion Trends, Gifts, Men's Fashion, Women's Fashion | Thursday, 16 October 2008

Seattle musician Jonas de Varona has designed a line of clothing and bags under the name Meet Me Here. The Fall 2008 line was previewed at the McLeod Residence on August 1st. It includes bags made from recycled materials sourced locally as well as tops and skirts made from hand painted silk, nylon and non woven fabrics. All pieces are made to order - cut and sewn by Jonas - and are available through the MMH website.

“The internet has leveled the playing field for independent businesses by allowing them access to a much wider audience than was possible 10 years ago,” said de Varona.

The Meet Me Here fall line is muted black white and grey tones. Crisp angular jackets accentuate bubble shapes with splashes of flowing bright blue, yellow and silver. The line expresses the designer’s love of structure and contrast creating a feel that is spacious and chic.

In May MMH caught the eye of art and design blogMan Made Lakes. August 1st marked the first show for MMH at the at the Mcleod Residence. The event was hosted by What Why Design, a new quarterly event showcasing emerging Seattle designers. This month MMH is featured in the October syle issue ofSeattle Metropolitan magazine along side of ferings from Barney’s, Nordstroms, and Impulse as well as other top boutiques.

“Most of the shapes I make are not flattering in a typical sort of way. this is because I like the architectural aspects of clothing. I’m much more interested in making a unique shape thats wearable than trying to flatter someone’s body,” said de Varona“To me this is where the mystery lies.”

On Dec 11 MMH will participate in a gallery show at Vermillion gallery with Seattle designers Grey pants, I&M and others. The event will behosted by Join Design Seattle.

Jonas de Varona has played and/or recorded with Throw Me The Statue, Chocolate, Reggie Watts, Darius Wilrich, Joe Syverson and others.

Topman presents iconic rock fashion for the 21st century

Spring 08 sees Topman introduce an exciting new label with rock & roll fashion in its DNA: The Look Presents.

Drawing on acclaimed style bible The Look: Adventures in Rock & Pop Fashion, The Look Presents is a creative hub for the legendary designers inspired by the combustion that occurs when great music meets fantastic style.

With three separate collaborative collections produced exclusively for Topman in 08, The Look Presents premieres in stores in May with the animalistic designs of classic 70s label Wonder Workshop, originally worn by such rock icons as Iggy Pop, Sid Vicious, Mick Jagger, Marc Bolan and Led Zeppelin.

Wonder Workshop designers John Dove and Molly White have reinvented the range for the 21st century, all the while maintaining their original aesthetic.

Available in full colour and monotone, the Wonder Workshop mens tees designs feature tattoo-inspired prints as well as the incredible Wild Thing graphic of a snarling leopard’s head (as worn by Iggy on the cover of the Stooges glam-punk masterpiece Raw Power), a snake which wraps around the torso of the mens tees and prints featuring two hawks and a dove.

The Look Presents is the brainchild of The Look author/music fashion historian Paul Gorman and Soho boutique owner Max Karie. “We are plugging directly into the electricity of rock and pop fashion by working with brilliant original designers,” said Gorman. “The Look Presents is all about reinvigorating the menswear market with authenticity and integrity.”

The Wonder Workshop mens T-shirt will be available from end of May. The collection will be stocked in selected stores and also online at topman.com

The new Wonder Workshop mens T-shirt collection is the first of two t-shirt collaborations between Topman and The Look Presents. The second being The Look Presents Nigel Waymouth, a darkly psychedelic collection of graphic t-shirts from the founder of the legendary King’s Road boutique Granny Takes A Trip. The Granny takes a trip tees are due for release at the end of July.

The third collaborative collection is named Priceless. Designed by Antony Price, this will be his first ever high street ready to wear collection of suits, shirts, trousers and jackets. More details to follow.
