Shops for Vintage Denim in NYC

Vintage stores can be hit or miss, but when we heard that Bella Hadid hunts for her Levi’s at The Vintage Twin in New York, we knew it had to be good. Run by twins Morgan and Samantha Elias, the sisters search around the world for their impressive collection of denim and vintage clothes.

 Their online store features some of their finds, but they also run two pop-up shops in NYC. Each has a “JEANius Bar” where they specialize in finding the perfect fit and size for their It-girl clients. They also do custom pieces, like the reworked leather jacket and camo coat they recently designed for Cara Delevingne.


If you’re interested in seeing more, make sure to follow them on Instagram. They often post what their fashion girl fans have unearthed at their stores. Alexa Chung snagged a vintage tee and leather trench coat, pulling off Françoise Hardy vibes. And blogger Danielle Bernstein of We Wore What found a checked blazer and ankle cropped jeans.

Whether you’re after the perfect pair of vintage Wranglers or a worn-in band tee, The Vintage Twin is worth a visit.

Glamour night of high fashion at the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party

Bold move! Alexa Chung turned heads at the Serpentine Gallery summer party in Kensington Gardens on Thursday evening

The British beauty dressed her lean and slender frame in a sexy creation, fashioned around an erotic male and female figure, locked in an embrace.

The sizzling Christopher Kane attire, with blue and white detail, boasted flared a hemline and semi-sheer fabric which drew attention to her ample assets.

Following the night’s proceedings, the brunette beauty took to her social media sites to post: ‘Thank you to the Serpentine for asking me to cohost your lovely party last night. #sideboob’

Other guests – who enjoyed various Eclipse cocktails – included Lara Stone,  Poppy Delevingne, Suki Waterhouse,  Karlie Kloss and ....

Friends in fashion: The style star posed up a storm with the designer of her bold number

The collection of denims, which will launch on StyleBop.com on July 23, are dubbed ‘hip, smart and sophisticated’ and perfectly reflects designer Alexa’s personal style.

Alexa first revealed that she was working with AG on a collection back in June, telling WWD.com: ‘The collection is inherently the missing pieces of my dream denim wardrobe, which, as ever, is predominantly inspired by a late Sixties, early Seventies aesthetic.’

Her new collection is set to go on sale in Trilogy Stores and at Stylebop on July 23.

ALEXA CHUNG - Hot Denim

Unsere liebste Fashionista Alexa Chung hat nun eine weitere prestigeträchtige Kooperation an Land gezogen und wird eine eigene Capsule Collection für das kalifornische Label AG Jeans auf den Markt bringen. Da klatscht mein modebegeistertes Herzchen freudig erregt in die Hände und fiebert, trotz gerade erst begonnenem Sommer und größter Winteraversion, doch glatt schon ein bisschen dem kommenden Januar entgegen.

Dann soll die Kollektion nämlich lanciert werden.

Insgesamt 20 Teile wird die Linie umfassen, darunter Jeanshosen, Denimkleider und T-Shirts. Zwar gibt es noch kein Bildmaterial zur Kollektion, doch wie wir Madame und ihren Look kennen, dürfen wir uns ganz sicher auf Alexa-typische Haben-Wollen-Teile freuen. Was die Gute selbst über ihre Denim-Linie zu sagen hat, klingt auf jeden Fall schon einmal vielversprechend. „Die Kollektion besteht natürlich aus Jeansteilen, die ich mir immer schon in meiner Garderobe gewünscht habe und bisher leider noch fehlten und sind – wie so oft – vor allem von den 60er-Jahren inspiriert“, erklärt Fashionsta Chung !

Falltrend: Blazer

It´s become ultimate wardrobe best frien - the go - with-everything jacket.

Anything goes this season, from clasic black and posh-boy-college stripes to pulent golden-eagle motifs.
For a eal fashion injection, replace elbow patches with elbow slits.

 

 

 

It´s a great eveningwear option but nothing says Parisian cool like a blazer , skinny jeans and Chelsea boots...

 

If you still haven´t got one, what are you waiting for ?

Catwoman lässt grüßen ....egal ob in Berlin, London  oder Bozen, überall sieht man jetzt coole "Miezen" auf den Strassen streunen.

Leoparden-Prints feiern in dieser Saison ein großes Comeback undulieren jetzt großflächig die neuen Mäntel.

Die Schnitte orientieren sich dabei an Klassikern aus der Herrenschneiderei: simpler Cuts und wenig Details.....
