cali-cool...
The Mister Freedom x Sugarcane Spring 2011 Collection "Les Apaches" has arrived. This indigo blue Calico was inspired by the late 1800's cotton printed shirting and several vintage swatches from Mister Freedom. Mister Freedom went back to early techniques of discharge printing to produce these textiles in Japan. I really love the color of this shirt and if this collection/shirt fits anything like their chambray shirts a la J.Crew, this is a sure fire winner.

yay! live with your parents in ohio so you can buy olde timey clothes. great life plan.
ReplyDelete@Anon-haha...although I don't practice this, I for one cannot condone those living with their parental units in these economic times. As long as your actively pursuing a career/job and you're acting responsibly and not just leaching off your parents, this in turn may be a wise plan for the time being. Also, in they Asian Culture this seems to be quite the norm. Thanks again for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThe model makes this seems like Lumber Jack Couture. But I like the shirt...even for me
ReplyDelete@rachel joy-glad you dig the shirt. In my opinion, there's nothing more sexy than a woman that can pull off a guy's shirt. To me, it shows confidence/swag when a woman wears clothes that many perceive "unflattering".
