Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci x Converse Addict All Stars

givenchy by riccardo tisci converse addict all s


Givenchy’s creative director Riccardo Tisci lends his unique styling to the next release in the Converse Addict range. A black gloss leopard print has been added to an all black canvas which sits on top of a polyurethane Poron cushioned sole with a Vibram outsole. Add to that an Outlast lining and detailing such as rubber spikes down the back of the heel, you have a rather unique looking shoe. The jury is still out as to whether the use of these extra materials or the added build quality balances out the high price, but either way these shoes would certainly turn some heads.

Style Icon - Jon Kortajarena

jon kortajarena style izandrew blog 7


His name is Jon Kortajarena, a 25 year old Spanish born model, known for his distinguishing chiselled cheekbones, effortless style and a dark, fly-away mop of hair. The Spaniard seems to be everywhere; from bus stops and billboards to high end magazines and award shows. You can’t go far at the moment without noticing Jon Kortajarena. If you are unfamiliar with his name then I am sure you recognise him from H&M's winter campaign, as well as being the face of recent advertisements at Pepe Jeans, Next, Martinique, Tom Ford and Guess. He also featured In Tom Ford’s directorial début A Single Man in 2009, and in the same year GQ voted him their Model Of The Year.


Spring/Summer 2011 Men's Fashion Trends - The Biker Jacket

Burberry Spring Summer 2011 Campaign izandrew bl


Perhaps the biggest factor is the ageing of looks from previous seasons, in particular the military trend. This trend has been with us for the last couple of years now, with varying degrees of popularity, but during A/W10 it reached its peak, the market is now saturated with trench coats, nautically inspired knitwear, t-shirts, military boots and all manner of accessories, and is now beginning to become very thinly spread and over worked. This is certainly not to say that these items have now become unfashionable, rather it is time for change. Hold on to your military inspired items (particularly if you own a camel trench coat – a fine purchase) however, as they will remain completely timeless and transitional in the future, and set you in good stead for this new look, saving you time, money and effort. But before we get too deep into this, let’s have a peek at the fashion worlds take on The Biker Trend.

Style Icon - Baptiste Giabiconi

baptiste giabiconi karl lagerf izandrew blog

Enough of his glittering career, style wise he is an inspirational figure. Of course with him being a model for Chanel he has accessibility to a vast range of clothes that most of us only wish we had access to. However you can dress just as well as Baptiste by spending a tenth of the value of the clothes he wears. The most important lesson we can learn from looking at his look book above is the sense of knowing what items will work TOGETHER, no matter what they may look like separately.
