Stylee Fridays: MAN Show London Fashion Week

The MAN show at London Fashion Week is always a chance for the boys to get flashy, and obviously the first place to go shopping for new British menswear talent. A newcomer to the MAN fold, designer Katie Eary literally turned the human body inside out for her spring 2010 collection, taking the idea of underwear as outerwear right down to the bone with skeletal leggings, ribcage splashed tees and pigskin-covered shades with trompe l’oeil eyeballs. Hardly surprising then that William S Burrough’s Naked Lunch and Junky were the designer’s go-to texts for the wonderful weirdness of it all.

Reebok’s FRAMED Series on IFC
- story THE FADER
In a brilliant flash of branded entertainment Reebok is producing a new series for IFC (premiering next Monday) which pairs its top athletes with celebrities of other sorts in tête-á-têtes of surprisingly human dimension. Superstar ballers like Baron Davis, David Ortiz, Allen Iverson, and Thierry Henry match up with people like Nelly, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Paz Vega in locations that have personal relevance to each. Our favorite so far is Thierry and Paz in Barcelona (pictured above) because we played soccer as kids, weren’t very good, and didn’t get to travel or hang out with beautiful people because of it. Hooray for television!
