Selectism stopped by Aspen Fashion Week, where Rossignol’s new JCDC line was a clear highlight.

“The line combines cutting edge technology – pulled from Rossignol’s ten years in the apparel business and 104 years in ski – and JCDC’s trademark sense of fun. The men’s line finds the designer using technical wool and advanced printed fabrics in garments that are all about adventure and exploration. Brush painted camouflage and and helicopter instrument panel prints are indicative of the them. Additionally, JCDC employs bold plaids and waterproof corduroy.

See more images of the collection here.

Range Rover will be celebrating the addition of their latest model to their family later this week – the Range Rover Evoque. The beautiful new small scale 4×4 is targeted at a younger audience and therefore the brand has a special line-up of events and initiatives planned around the launch. While the car will be revealed in all its beauty to the plubic later this week in Paris, it will only see a market launch next year.

In Paris Range Rover worked with JC de Castelbajac, Andre, Yorgo Tloupas of Intersection Magazine and with Surface 2 Air. Each  of them got a wire frame sculpture of the Range Rover Evoque as a canvas and they had to add their very own flavor to it, around a certain topic.

Andre got the topic Design and added his signature pink graphics to the sculpture, which is exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo. Yorgo Tloupas worked on the Technology theme and thus imitated the wind channel with striped of light. His version of the sculpture is standing right in front of the Centre Pompidou. Surface to Air worked on the Sustainability theme and their work is exhibited at the Musee des Arts et Metires. Last but not least, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac worked on the Luxury theme, adding neon wings to the sculpture and you can find this last piece of the puzzle at the Yachts de Paris.

Discover Paris and make sure to check out each one of them, that’s what we did today!
