All clothing is printed or embroidered in the state of the art facilities in the UK ensuring the highest quality product.

Misery Loves Co. is a collaborative venture between two Toronto based graphic designers that features streetwear collections from Obey Giant and Lifetime Collective.

Inspired by a love for design and fashion, this independent online clothing store is driven by the desire to seek, and share clothes that exhibit a wickedly distinct and exciting variety of streetwear designs.

Stocking both male and female accessories, graphic tees, hoodies and woven knits, Misery Loves Co. is about self expression and feeling good in your threads.

You know that you’re pressing all the right fashion buttons when your label’s first collection immediately sells out and a second is stocked by established New Zealand designer WORLD.

Such is the case for new Kiwi clothing label Crowded Elevator, who despite being only a years old is a huge hit in the land of the long white cloud and about to break into the Australian market.

Such rapid growth shows that we are filling a gap in the market for high quality locally-made product with international flair, says Company Director Carl Thompson.

Launched in June 2007, the label’s sold out inaugural summer collection featured 11 eclectic internationally styled tees for men with catchy slogans in retro fonts and kitsch animal graphics in neon bright colours.

We did a lot of research internationally and focussed on emerging trends from Sydney, New York and London to come up with a range of cutting edge nu-rave streetwear, says Thompson.

A lot of people do prints on tees, but I like to think Crowded Elevator clothing is more than just printed tees ­ it¹s artwork that is designed to be worn.

November 2007 saw the release of the limited edition Creative Collection Vol1, Kiwi-influenced prints designed by some of New Zealand’s hottest artists and sold through the country’s leading fashion stores.

The Creative Collection allowed us to showcase some of the country¹s hidden talent, says Thompson. We can’t wait to make it an annual event, and that’s likely with the invaluable support WORLD provided right from the start.

For winter 08 the label expanded into hoodies and a selection of women’s tees - but with the rate the label is growing, dedicated followers of fashion should get on this ride at the ground floor.

The Berlin based organic T-Shirt Label 500GODZ was established in the summer of 2007. Since April 2008 the strictly limited and completely sustainable, sweatshop free T-Shirt collections are distributed worldwide.

For the first collection the label got the British Street Artist AME72 on board. Other Street Art figures and Illustrators will follow with their collections.

500GODZ are pursuing a philosophy that balances a provocative and social crititical superstructure with most stringently practiced ecological awareness.

All 500GODZ T’s are made and organically dyed in Turkey out of 100% certified organically grown cotton and are printed in the UK by taking advantage of a chemical free printing technique.

In addition the cotton quality used in 500GODZ T’s is certified by the Soil Association, which is the UK’s leading organic organization and also by GOTS the Global Organic Textile Standard. All 500GODZ manufacturers are members in the Fear Wear Foundation. This Dutch based foundation aims to promote humane labour conditions in the garment industry.

This way 500GODZ are able combine both provocative social critical Street Art and environmental awareness hitting the nerve of an urban scene that is ready to make a change. Social Awareness is here not just another half hearted marketing attempt but the labels philosophy and is backed up by every possible certificate.

Moreover each t-shirt design is limited to a maximum number of 500 Shirts (usually 300 – 400), a handwritten serial number is written on the label tag of each shirt and the sales can be traced via an online map which shows to which country a design has been sold making every design a unique piece of art.

The popularity of streetwear has spread across the world. People everywhere who want unique products have found streetwear as a way to standout from the crowd. Our goal at As Seen Fit is to make streetwear available to those people.

During the initial stages of As Seen Fit, we imagined a site where people could accurately see the style and quality of our brands’ attention to detail. We hope to provide the best fits and service possible, while supporting the hardworking underground brands who are the pioneers of style and fashion. We hope our customers are able to see themselves in these fits.

The founders of As Seen Fit are two college students, both with a love for streetwear. Our initial quantities are limited, but we will constantly be adding more brands and even more hot gear. Quality customer service is our commitment to you. So please, send any questions, comments, wanted brands to info@asseenfit.com.

Created in December 2006, Descolex brings notes, reports, articles and videos about fashion and its influence on Brazilian urban culture. The Blog also, talks about music, street art, fine art, graffiti, sneaker culture, toys, film, photography, design, books, and magazines. We cover things that amaze us, from big (traditional) Brazilian brands to obscure and new labels.

Due to its informal and pleasant texts, Descolex achieved in only a few months time – and without any PR efforts – the impressive mark of one thousand accesses per day. Because of this success, it became a reference for Brazilian and international streetwear fans, with an exponentially growing audience. The site was also invited, in January 2007, to be a part of the first official blog coverage of São Paulo Fashion Week, the largest and most important fashion event in Latin America.

This project rendered the blog various citations in specialized news vehicles. At the end of 2007, Descolex was nominated for the “best national fashion blog” prize, granted by Chic, one of the foremost Brazilian fashion websites. The blog is witten in São Paulo by Glauco Sabino, fashion producer and journalist, who started his career when 16 years old. His portfolio contains works for Vogue Magazine, Folha de S. Paulo newspaper, and as well as other media vehicles.

Just released, “Cubicle” is a custom cut and sewn exquisite 9 color polo brought to you from the progressively askew mind of Daniel Vigil (danielvigildesign.com). Made of comfortable jersey (t-shirt) material, the polo features the controlled chaos of an indecipherable script tag behind an acid yellow pocket as well as an assortment of geometric vs. organic shapes
(some printed in soft metallics). The small text reads “Also enjoyed with pleated khakis during a nice seafood dinner” split from front to back. Wear it to the office, ninja demonstration, or a nice seafood dinner.

At 17 I started the company in January of 07 because I did not want a real job, I was a Junior in highschool, and wanted a career that could keep me close to music.

6 short months later we did a leg on the warped tour, as the youngest company to be a part of the tour for the summer. We are now dropping a whole new line within the coming months and as I graduate highschool I’m ready to get it off the ground. Aimed at the music community and people inspired by art and music, we are here to make our spot in the fashion community. With help of the online community and a select list of bands, we plan to attend a few warped dates and other events within the coming months.

Soapy Laundry would like to present clothing made for the people. A clothing brand that will reinvigorate the older generation, energize our generation and motivate the younger generation. Simply bringing fashion that can be experienced by all shapes, sizes, and ethnic backgrounds. Our garments provide humor, hope and style. Each piece is a melting together of two distinct styles part “Soapy” and part “Laundry” With your support we want to create a lifestyle brand that is not just a “One Hit” wonder, but here to stay.

Guess you can say Soapy Laundry was born in the 80’s and we just didn’t know it. Working hard over the last several years in the 9-5 rat race just kept us hungry and kept us motivated. Various entrepreneur attempts on our own have had limited success. When two people with different styles have the same dream, it turning into reality can end up being one phone conversation away. In a generation filled with collaboration we felt it was time to join together and make this happen. The garments you will see released by Soapy Laundry will be a combination of two minds creating a style for the masses. It was only natural for us to do this and felt Soapy Laundry was the best forum for it to occur It’s definitely hard out here for two young men to survive, and we knew if we were going threw this, everyone around us and around the world was going through the same thing.

Trying to keep a dream from fading is tough; allowing a dream to fade would have been even tougher.

Thankfully we have decided to dive in head first in order to see where it leads us and have some fun while we’re at it of course. Some may feel like this is just another clothing label trying to find its way. We feel that this is more than clothing its life telling us its time to be true to ourselves. Failure is not and an option. We are going to stay hungry, stay motivated, and turn these 80’s dreams into realities.
