Fallow at Ok-Ni.

Proving that Britain can still produce exceptional jeans, Fallow blend premium Japanese denim from the world-renowned Kaihara Mill with meticulous design details, handcrafted UK production, and a liberal sprinkling of magic. The theme of ‘constant autumn’ and a backdrop of rural British culture permeates Fallow products, as do Unicorns – a personal favourite of the Fallow founders.

Jil Sander.






Jil Sander was founded in 1973 and has since built a reputation for understated and sleek designs cut in luxurious fabrics. The first men's collection premiered in Milan, January 1997. The minimalist trademarks include striking silhouettes, high-end fabrics and meticulous detail which emphasises modern masculinity and refined craftsmanship.

Raf Simons joined the company in 2005, taking the position of Creative Director. His collections embody the Jil Sander brand's core values and hold true to its history. In 2007 and under the supervision of Raf Simons a new accessories department was established to reinforce the Jil Sander identity.

Alexander McQueen - Spring/Summer 2011.






Pomp and Circumstance, the spring/summer 11 offering from Alexander McQueen, is the first menswear collection produced under the artistic direction of Sarah Burton. Drawing on the design house's DNA, themes of photographic print, exclusive fabrics treated unusually and the skull motif are ever present. The aristocratic and military tailoring traditionally associated with Savile Row is juxtaposed with elements of street style and workwear.

Available at Oki-Ni.

J.W. Anderson









Oki-ni have some really nice items just show up on their online store however amidst Raf Simons, NN.07 and Hobo their was one collection that really stood out for us, J.W.Anderson.

Never heard of him? J. W. Anderson made its debut at London Fashion Week in September 2007 with a menswear collection characterised by the use of real insects in jewellery.
Yes.....real insects.
A dark, Rasputin-inspired autumn/winter 2008 collection soon followed, before Anderson made his breakthrough with the highly anticipated spring/summer 2009 collection, An Eye for An Eye. Something worth google-ing.

JW Anderson's Fall Winter 10 collection represents a scrapbook of thoughts based on the notion of the SAINT and the ASSASSIN, as well as the LOVE and HATE in the accessories collection - rings reiterate a struggle between aggression and romanticism. It's always nice to slip those biblical references in there.

The t-shirt collection in itself is something to be admired. Well that's open to debate but we're fans. It looks like tassles are in. The assorted key chain is a keeper although I know people who would don that on their neck.

Applaudable.
