Contemporary brand COMME des GARCONS has teamed up with folks at Apple Corps to fuse together their cool, under the radar fashion sense with the timely chicness of The Beatles.

COMME des GARCONS and Apple Corps Ltd. are very excited to announce that they are working together to create a brand new collection under the label The Beatles x COMME des GARCONS. The collection, designed by Rei Kawakubo and inspired by the Beatles and all their magical creations, will consist primarily of bags, with other items added from time to time.

The collection will first hit shelves at the Dover Street Market on November 27.

Designed by Francesca Rosella and Ryan Genz of CuteCircuit.

The GalaxyDress provides a spectacular and mesmerizing effect being embroidered with 24000 color LEDs, it is the largest wearable display in the world. Constructed using the smallest full-color LEDs that are flat like paper and measuring only 2 by 2 mm.

Says the duo: “The circuits are extra-thin, flexible and hand-embroidered on a layer of silk in a way that gives it stretch so the LED fabric can move like normal fabric with lightness and fluidity.”  They add that the dress uses the same amount of electricity as two household bulbs.

Music video: Lady Gaga – “Bad Romance”

Fashion, Music, Style, Video, ,

Some are calling Gaga’s latest video for her new single “Bad Romance” “her best yet,” and I tend to agree with these sentiments.  Though her music video for “Paparazzi” was very unique and stands out in its own way, “Bad Romance” just feels bigger and, well, better.  The costume designs, the choreography (with a nod to MJ’s “Thriller”), and the overall production design of it is flat out superb and entrancing.  Take a look for yourself and enjoy Gaga and her, erm, eccentric-ness.

Windbreaker for the ultimate geek..and the practical

The Scottevest/SeV Pack Windbreaker includes seventeen pockets for all your gadgets to join you on all mobile journeys.  Some of the pockets feature magnetic closures.  The jacket boats a weight management system that supposedly balances the weight of the jacket on your body (taking into account all the paraphernalia it contains) and the pockets are made of clear touch fabric which allow you to see through the material to check up on your touchscreen devices hidden inside.  Pretty practical if you ask me.
