Brut Clothing

Brut has a very cool lookbook and website that features their love of "raw" and strong materials. Brut takes vintage pieces and give them new life, which I think is a commendable project in today's fast-fashion marketplace. I enjoy the vintage military pieces and accessories assembled. See more of the Brut project HERE.

John Cavanagh 1950's

Going back in time...

John Cavanagh was a British designer whom launched his eponymous label in 1952. This video clip features footage shot around that time of a swimwear show. I'm enjoying several of the looks--particularly the last striped number. But what I find fantastic is the fact that he featured a nail studded belt at the time--never would have thought...in the 50's!...Anyway, enjoy!

Dazed Digital stops by Vintage Festival in London

Some folks can simply pull off vintage much better than others. Perhaps it is a state of mind that you need to complete the look--I might find it easier to strap on the suspenders. This look has vintage appeal, but there is definitely something contemporary about it in the details--most likely to do with the great diamond print on the tee. See more from Vintage Festival HERE on DazedDigital.
