Tuesday Night Band Practice - A/W 2016

Tuesday night is reserved for... TNBP, which is short for Tuesday Night Band Practice.  Founded from the designers' weekly Tuesday night band practices, the brand is comprised principally of Mark Murder and Robin Graves who banded together to create something that expresses the fashion of the night creeper, the music lover, the personality of the rock romantic. Inspired by Heavy Metal, Grunge, Punk, Rock n’ Roll, and a many other subcultures, this fashion label pays tribute with typical British satire in the creation of a fashion label. 

This London high-end fashion brand, 'Tuesday Night Band Practice', is as powerful and disturbing as the music scene that inspired it.

WAX by HEX Clothing - "Embrace the Elements" A/W 2016

HEX is an underground techno movement and an independent clothing line from Barcelona. Inspired by history and creation of refined, minimal and practical products, their mission is to create dark-style clothing and accessories for leaders of the Techno industry.

WAX by HEX Clothing is a winter capsule collection inspired by 17th century mariners who lined their cotton sails with wax, to make them more resistant to stormy weather and brutal waves on their ocean voyages. The six pieces consist of heavy winter jackets, protective linen shirts, waxed cotton trousers and a hand-painted canvas utility bag.

“The year is 1617. Waves crashed against the rock, winds beat against the wax-lined sail. Rains fall, staining my skin. We hold on, oceans churning beneath us. The Elements are here.”

Alice Auaa - S/S 2017

Japanese brand Alice Auaa who started back in 1993, inspired by punk, new wave, and gothic themes, recently presented collection for Spring/Summer 2017 entitled "Triangle."

Minimal, industrial, and very architectural, this collection plays on the side of wrapping, tying, and reshaping certain pieces upside-down that, as an end result, are transformed into "triangle." 

Each presence of the colors has been eliminated. Everything is, simply, black and white. Including the model's makeup. No middle.
