Adidas Superstar TT Project - Harris Tweed

highsnobiety - Adidas Superstar TT Project - Harris Tweed

For centuries the islanders of Lewis, Harris, Uist and Barra have woven the magical cloth the world knows as Harris Tweed, Clo Mhor in the original Gaelic- 'The big cloth'.

From time immemorial, the inhabitants of the West of Scotland, including the Outer Hebrides had made cloth entirely by hand. As the Industrial Revolution reached Scotland, the mainland turned to mechanisation but the Outer Islands retained their traditional processes. Lewis and Harris had long been known for the excellence of the weaving done there, but up to the middle of the nineteenth century, the cloth was produced mainly for home use or for a purely local market.

As Part of the Track Top Initiative in which one of the iconic adidas track tops is transformed into different styles and looks through use of new fabric tech and design twists, this Super TT Tweed is constructed from 100% Harris Tweed for a unique style with nappa leather details and a stretch satin lining.

The Adidas Superstar TT Project "Harris Tweed" jacket is now available at Hanon.

Other track tops and a full leather suit from this project can be seen below.

Converse by John Varvatos Fall 2008 "Get Chucked" Ad Campaign

highsnobiety - Converse by John Varvatos Fall 2008

Converse and partner John Varvatos today announced the launch of a new series of “Get Chucked” advertising, focusing on the fall 2008 Converse by John Varvatos fashion line-up and the company’s premium men’s and women’s apparel and footwear collections . The campaign takes its cues from the wild side of late night dining and was inspired by and shot at the recently closed Manhattan eatery and nightlife legend, Florent. The multimedia creative features British modeling sensation, Daisy Lowe.

Acclaimed photographer Ryan McGinley shot the Converse by John Varvatos line for the second consecutive season. McGinley partnered with Yard, the creative agency behind the campaign, as well as Converse and John Varvatos to portray the collection’s carefree and playful sensibility.  Captured in the late-night escapades of models Daisy Lowe and Liam Wade (Select Model Management), the creative celebrates the essence of the “Get Chucked” attitude with the comradery and antics that take place in the wee hours of the morning in late night diners across the world. The campaign was shot at Florent in the final weeks before the iconic Manhattan diner closed its doors after 23 years.  Florent was one of the first restaurants to move into the then delinquent and desolate meatpacking district of the 80s. As the home base of artists and fashionistas, it was chosen as the ideal venue to host the tongue-and-cheek series depicting anything goes late night dining moments.

This season also marks the introduction of a 60 second short film, shot by McGinley, to amp up the “Get Chucked” brand experience.  The provocative film, also shot on location at Florent, showcases playful havoc and barely startled diners in a story revolving around an underwear-clad diner (sporting only a Converse by John Varvatos tie, shirt and the just launched Chuck Taylor® All Star® Bosey Boot), who has late night ideas of his own. Designer Varvatos makes a special cameo appearance in the film.  The piece is set to the music of The Virgins.

The print campaign will appear beginning in August in international and national publications including Dazed and Confused, Details, Elle, Fantastic Man, Flaunt, GQ, Interview, New York Times, Out, The Daily, V, V Man, Vogue and Wonderland and beginning in September on digital sites including Men.Style.com, Refinery29 and Style.com.  Out of home advertising includes wallscapes/bulletins, bus shelters and newsstand placements, guerilla projections, upscale bar digital HD screens and mirror clings and projection media in metro Los Angeles and New York locations.

Guilty Yacht By Jeff Koons

highsnobiety - Guilty Yacht Designed By Jeff Koons

Art superstar Jeff Koons has landed another hit, and designed his first yacht. The"Guilty", owned by art collector Dakis Joannou, features an extravagant artistic take by the US artist on the exterior.

"Of course, Sarah Morris' text painting "Guilty" hangs on the wall of one bedroom - bought after the yacht was named. Owner and major art collector Dakis Joannou simply had to have it!

The exterior design was created by international art star Jeff Koons, famous for his basketball in perspex case, three-storey high "Puppy" made of flowers, and the "Made in Heaven" erotic series of photographs with Italian ex-wife and porn-star-member-of-parliament La Cicciolina.

Although the blown up print and poster colours will be familiar to art fans from Roy Liechtenstein's signature Ben-Day Dots style, Jeff Koons actually based this design on a WW1 camouflage pattern." Via Monacoeye/Arkitip.

More images of the yacht follow after the jump.
