GIVENCHY by Riccardo Tisci presents the Seventeen watch‏

The very hip and happening brand Givenchy is proud to present the newest series of luxury wristwatches by Riccardo Tisci.
 

We just saw the pictures and wanted to share them with you, because we like the watches so much. How amazing would it be to own such a fabulous piece?
Let us give you a bit more information about the watches.

Seventeen is the first in an upcoming series of new Givenchy watches. Each style in the timepiece collection is named after a prime number. Mysterious yet powerful, prime numbers reflect the aesthetic of the Givenchy world. The name 'Seventeen' refers to Tisci's lucky number. The watch is unisex with a unique design.

You can see in the pictures below that the watch is made of soft and hard elements. Together with the contrast of a curved edge, it creates a dynamic balance. They are available in six colour combinations of various cases and dials including black, anthracite, red, green, steel and gold.

 

The price is about €630 or $800 (depending on the model you choose). It's really worth it, because high quality is considered very important at Givenchy. It will last you a lifetime!

You can only buy these exclusively in specialty stores and Givenchy shops around the world. If you want to grab your own, you can online at Colette!

 

 

 

Big thanks to Givenchy PR for the information and the pictures!

Event: Matinique turns 40 - Barcelona Meeting

Last week, we went to a very exclusive event of the brand Matinique.

This year the Danish brand turns 40! 40 years of fabulous men's clothing.

Specially for this anniversary, they organized a very exclusive event in Belgium for only 7 guests to have a sneak peek at the new collection. We were lucky and honoured to be two of them.
The people of Matinique that hosted were really kind and helpful.
It is a real pleasure to work with them.

First of all, we want you to have a look at this clip that will guide you through 40 years of Matinique.
What a journey...

 

Here are some pictures of the presentation and the collection.

The collection is truly amazing and stylish. Matinique decided to increase its prize and also to sell it in a limited number of stores, because of the special occasion.
However, the reaction to the collection is so good and so many people are prepared to pay that little extra, that eventualy it will be available everywhere for everyone.

All the pieces are timeless and if you purchase them, you can wear them longer than just one season.
People nowadays really search for clothing that is pure quality and class. Matinique has it all.

 

 

 

Here are some pictures we definitely wanted to share with you guys!

They're official, but a little bit more arty. Cool, huh?

These pictures will not be shown in stores or on billboards etc. They were released for press only.

 

 

To finish this article, we want to show you the official campaign movie.

Matinique always has such great movies!

Design My Samsonite

Everybody knows the amazing brand Samsonite for its great luggage to travel in style and comfort. We both use a Samsonite suitcase when we travel!

But today, we're not going to talk about the brand itself. We would like to tell you about a competition they set up. The competition is called 'Design My Samsonite'!

To be able to participate, there is just one simple rule: you have to be a student of a European Design & Art School (also including Turkey, Russia and South Africa). All entries must be received by May 31st, 2013

  

Judges will pick 2 international winners at the end of the contest. All the participants have a chance to win a trip to New York or Cape Town, worth €3000! The winners of the contest will be announced in June 2013 and the winning design will be produced as limited edition. They'll also pick one winner from each country and the design with the most likes ("People's Choice Award") will also win a prize. Amazing, right?!

Of course the candidates who participate need YOUR vote to win!

So go to the website (www.designmysamsonite.com) and vote for your favorite design! Here are some designs we like!
You can also check out all the designs on Facebook: www.facebook.com/samsoniteofficial

 

 

This exciting new Curv collection has again pushed the boundaries of the luggage world. It combines a strong dynamic lifestyle with extreme lightness, thanks to the revolutionary Curv material. Make sure to check out the website of Samsonite, if you like our new Firelite suitcase in the picture below!

 



One of our own  ;-)
