Public School Spring ‘10 Lookbook

Our friends at Public School are back for the ‘10.

From PS:

Our muse each season is an imaginary character by the name of Eddie Red. He’s a young NYC hustler from the mid ’70s. We begin every season with his imaginary guidance and fashion insight. This S/S 10 season takes inspiration from Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man. We witness Red’s journey through a hostile city, meandering through his many obstacles and surviving through his anonymity. Its probably our most progressive season in terms of experimentation of fabrics. For spring we wanted something tough but still flowing and drape-y. Mercerized jerseys, 16gg sweater knits are accompanied by washed leathers and bleached denim. The silhouette remains strong and the neck line built high with an exaggerated slim bottom.

Everyone in the office is wearing at least one piece from PS.

Coincidence that we received the lookbook today?

WHY Yacht

We just saw this, can’t even say yacht, more like a small island that moves. The Wally-Hermes Yachts (shortened to WHY) are an incredible mix of luxury and “green.” French luxury brand Hermès and Monaco-based yacht maker Wally have come together and delivered a yacht concept that is just ridiculous. The yacht was recently unveiled in Italy, WHY has a 58 meter long and 38 meter wide hull with no superstructure. It comes with three decks, a 25-meter swimming pool on board as well as a 36-meter beach along the back. Despite all this extravagance, WHY incorporates solar panels all along its exposed surface (900 square meters of it) and reduces consumption of fuel. Also thrown in are recycling arrangements for all organic and inorganic waste. WHY is currently being tested in a specialized tank testing facility in Gothenburg, Sweden. We’re wondering who will be the first to purchase one.
