BLAG Label by Sally A. Edwards + Sarah J. Edwards with Tom Hardy Launch: March 2013 BLAG Directors Sally A. Edwards and Sarah J. Edwards collaborate with Actor / Producer Tom Hardy’s ‘Little Black Dog and Red Handed label’ –  to turn their combined creativity into an upscale street clothing label for men and women under the iconic BLAG name. Designed by the trio, the label will focus on slick unisex streetwear beginning with a collection of classic T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats and accessories each one released on a monthly basis. Maintaining BLAG’s reputation for championing upfront trends and being in the right place at the right time, the label will mirror this and be classic, yet innovative. Initial pieces will draw on the influence of effortless paragons of cultural time – from Steve McQueen and Marlon Brando’s T’s and sweats – through the mean streets and colorful imaginations of past and present – capturing the timeless energy of key cities and eras, with a lean or emphasis on the practical functionality of necessary pieces of clothing; on military influence, mapping / ordinance and the vintage. Restoring classic fashion iconography to modern day functionality with practical / military efficiency and the ability to house discretely today’s technological advancements. Sign up now for the first t-shirt release and subscription invitation to receive a different product for £30 a month including shipping.

A Unique Collaboration This past Paris Fashion Week saw something very unusual with the unveiling of one of the most unique collaborations we’ve seen in a long time. Take the traditional drink of artists, Pernod Absinthe and bring together, Gildas and Masaya aka Maison Kitsuné famed for quality products and music from the likes of Two Door Cinema Club, Saint Lou Lou and Citizens!  Maison Kitsuné created 1805 limited edition bottles for Pernod Absinthe – as a nod to the year the drink was established, now on sale at Colette, Paris. Not only this, but the design was turned into a fabric for a capsule collection inspired by the upbeat style of the staff at your favourite, traditional American burger spot. Gildas discusses this, music, a dream Maison Kitsuné festival and much more in BLAG’s 20th Anniversary Collectors Edition. There’s also a lush two page spread of the original bottle artwork.
