To celebrate their soon to release collaborative collection, Versace and H&M hosted a runway show in New York City last night.
Outfits showcased on the catwalk were of course from the Versace for H&M collection, which brings together different styles from the Versace archive. The long-awaited collection for H&M features such iconic pieces for women as draped metal mesh dresses, silk-crêpe dresses with gold buttons, multi-coloured panel print dresses and the classic Versace studded leather jacket, while for men there are sharp suits, printed sweaters and print shirts, and studded leather jackets and trousers. For women the collection is certainly more interesting, because we do not see a lot of men being able to wear the colorful all over print styles.
Obviously the event was packed with celebrities and Prince actually performed. The collection will go on sale on November 17th, 2011, at about 300 H&M stores. More images from the runway show follow after the jump.

Erik Brunetti defined rebelliousness for the Generation X of skate boarders and street wear consumers, through unconventional and often controversial designs and ad campaigns released under his brand name FUCT.
FUCT got it’s initial push shortly after it’s conception, when New York City’s UNION took notice to the brand and offered to become it’s exclusive US retailer. This was 1991.
FUCT is celebrating its 20 year anniversary with a visual exhibition presenting selected works (released and unreleased) by artists who contributed to the brands visuals: Erik Brunetti, Pushead, Larry Clark, Wes Lang, Alexis Ross, Mr. Cartoon and many more.

Earlier this week we had the opportunity to visit the Nike Campus in Beaverton, Oregon for Jordan Brand’s Holiday 2011 Flight Forum. Centered on the latest footwear developments for Jordan’s star players Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony and Dwyane Wade, Jordan gave a select group of media a first peak at the CP3.V, Fly Wade 2 and Melo M8 signature shoes. Rounding out the unveiling were several new CP, Melo and Wade endorsed sneakers as well as a full range of forthcoming Jordan brand apparel.
As part of the event, we also had the opportunity to wear test some of these shoes in Nike’s Bo Jackson gym. The most comfortable and responsive for this editor’s (admittedly amateur) style of play were the Melo M8s, as pictured above.
Have a look in our gallery as we “Fly Around, Fly Over and Fly Through” some highlights from the Jordan Holiday 2011 collection. Two shots to note outside of what’s mentioned above are the Carbon Fiber Jordan 2011s (for Jordan family only) and a portrait of legendary Nike designer Mark Smith.

As most of you will be well aware, Supreme London officially opened their doors yesterday to much fanfare from the locals. Rumor has it one fellow even queued overnight and didn’t buy a single thing. That’s dedication. One of our London correspondents rolled through Peter Street, snapping off several flicks of the queue and the folks within it. Some interesting looks…
