miss sixty: bringing sexy back!

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

italian-designed brand Miss Sixty has been around for nearly two decades and is only growing stronger, developing amazing women’s clothing, accessories, fragrances and more. appealing to fashion-forward fashionistas, this label brings a cosmopolitan flair to the table…a breath of fresh air to those tired of the bookish, boxy clothing styles of late.

              

the undeniable appeal of Miss Sixty clothing lies mainly in the brand’s versatility. unafraid to flirt with unusual colors, patterns and fabric blends, founders wichy hassan and renato rossi have taken the brand to new heights, premiering au courant collections at the famed guggenheim museum in nyc during a past fashion week event.

clinton and obama duel it out…in the rag trade?

Monday, March 17th, 2008

who says you can’t be political and fashionable? democratic rivals hillary clinton and barack obama can add “model” to their respective lists of accomplishments with premium t-shirts being released to further endorse their campaigns.

designer marc jacobs, one of many celebs who publicly endorse hillary, designed a limited run of t-shirts bearing the governor’s likeness. originally sold only at the couture king’s marc by marc jacobs line of boutiques, these gems are now only available as resells on sites like eBay.

                     

senator obama, never one to back down, employed graffiti artist shepard “obey” fairey to create a series of posters for the presidential hopeful, the image from which was eventually made screened onto a tee. while not released in stores, obama handed out a slew of these shirts at recent campaign rallies, a great thing for supporters as the posters themselves are now fetching top dollar, also on eBay.

                      

though we’re still waiting on that elusive john mccain tee, fans of these two candidates can click here to check out the hillary tees and here to get a look at the obama prints and shirts. and, as always, if political clothing isn’t your style, tons of bipartisan couture awaits you at www.emoda.com!

dom rebel: back with a vengeance!

Friday, March 14th, 2008

one of eModa.com’s most successful brands, men’s line Dom Rebel, is finally back on our virtual shelves! designed by canadian couture mastermind justin svatina, the Dom Rebel collection features intricate and colorful graphics hand-drawn by svatina himself, painstakingly screened onto the softest cotton tees with rich, premium inks. creative branding, vintage distress methods and meaningful sayings all play a part on Dom Rebel tees, and the newest sensations are the “art gallery” and “fire in the disco” collections.

       

some of the Dom Rebel custom tees even feature that beautiful phenomenon known as the Swarovski crystal. svatina and his crew never skimp on quality, as these quality crystals often appear on the tees in large quantities and are always reinforced for maximum durability.

       

whether you like to get your bling on or prefer a more low-key, graphics-only look, Dom Rebel is great for the stylish guy looking for a badass look. check out the new collection here.

affliction banned from ufc sponsorship!

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

according to www.5thround.com, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) league has apparently banned the Affliction vintage couture clothing brand from sponsoring any of the fighters within the organization. Affliction and its UFC-inspired counterpart, Xtreme Couture, were well known for being worn by top-notch fighters such as current Light Heavyweight Champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture, and famed fighter Chuck Lidell (currently the face of rival MMA [Mixed Martial Arts] brand Familia Gladiatoria), among others.

the reasoning behind this ban, you ask? evidently, the forces behind affliction feel they’ve familiarized themselves with the MMA game so much that they’ve decided to try and start their own fighting league! according to www.5thround.com:

“It seems as though Affliction wore out its welcome with the UFC as soon as the UFC got wind that Affliction was planning to get into the MMA game themselves.

The word is that the UFC was not happy about Affliction starting their own fighting organization. We currently aren’t sure if Affliction is partnering up with anybody or if they are going about it by themselves, but that was what we were able to confirm with our sources…”

despite this news, the ongoing trend of MMA-based clothing sponsorships is still alive and well. the UFC and its fighters have recently been supporting newer brands, most notably the aforementioned Familia Gladiatoria brand that’s been making huge waves in the industry, as well as up-and-coming brand TapouT.

                        

the IFL (International Fighting League) has recently announced plans to partner with “Rampage” Jackson for a series of t-shirts bearing the athlete’s name and likeness, released through MMA-based clothing label Throwdown.
