The Thing About Kate on Nowness.com

Kate Moss is usually the driving force behind too many things to count on one hand + now, days away from her Topshop collection dropping in stores + online, NOWNESS rounds up some of her close friends to discuss what makes her ‘that Kate’! 

In the following short ‘The Thing About Kate’, from Primal Scream’s Bobby Gillespie, Gossip frontwoman Beth Ditto to Cara Delevingne, the question ‘If Kate Moss were…’ is asked + answered by what planet, what famous London monument to what type of animal she would be, which all agree to be some sort of strong cat.   

‘I think that Kate’s incredible library of references has helped her become an amazing designer,’ says makeup artist + longtime friend Charlotte Tilbury. ‘There’s even a saying now, ‘Have you been Mossed?’

Come April 30, the 40-piece collection will hit Topshop stores worldwide, Topshop.com, NET-A-PORTER.com, Nordstrom.com + Nordstrom stores.

Enjoy!

For #FlashbackFriday check out this fashion film winner by Alex Turvey, from last year’s Berlin Fashion Film Festival.  Awarded for best cinematography + best fashion, there’s no denying why.

I love how the women on the floor almost take on the the form of animals with the complex pleating of their garments, looking almost like scales.

Enjoy!

Upcoming Yazbukey And Causse Collabo Is All About The Details

image

Yazbukey with her whimsical graphic pieces is already a love in my book but after seeing this collabo with Causse, makes her hat much better.

To mark the presentation of its Fall/Winter 2014-2015 collection, yesterday,  Causse, the finest name in leather gloves, unveiled their new capsule collection with designer Yazbukey, the funky designer of bright plexi jewelry + accessories.  But really, how perfect are these sets?  Hopefully they’re within my budget, which I doubt heavily, to at least buy one set, yet, which one, right?

The collection will feature three pairs of Causseleather gloves, complete with matching cases. Each pair is designed around three themes, the eyes, the mouth + the fingers, combining Causse’s lux with Yazbukey’swacky wit.  Unfortunately, they’ll be available come Fall so keep an eye out.

For #ThrowbackThursday, here’s a lot more of MALUCA MALA with her debut single ‘El Tigeraso’.  Only a bad ass Dominican chick like MALUCA could pull this off, taking us up to the streets of the Heights (Washington Heights), while driving dudes crazy, not to mention showing us how to party with gold soda cans in your hair + gold chancletas (Spanish slang for flip flops or other type of slip on) with socks.  

But it’s no surprise this chick is bad.  After meeting Diplo at a karaoke bar, the two starting working together resulting in “El Tigeraso” (available via Mad Decent), an infectious track that draws on her Dominican electro-merengue roots. 

Enjoy!

Start your day off correct with this exclusive video for the latest B&O PLAY x Opening Ceremony collection, where we see trailblazing artist MALUCA MALA (aka Banjee Rose), one of the sickest + sexiest NYC Dominican natives, werqing it up + down the concrete jungle.  While dressed in OC S/S 2014 pieces, sporting dope limited edition Form 2i headphones, you get a little taste from MALUCA’s latest track, ‘Trigger’.

Available in various colors, shop for your very own B&O PLAY X OPENING CEREMONY, here.
