discrete clothing... chasing shadows

We spent a lot of time looking at winter last week - not only was it New Zealand Fashion Week but the weather in Auckland sucked. Luckily, discrete clothing brought us back to reality and the sick summer we're hanging out for. 

These awesome threads are exactly what we need to get excited about summer and what we're going to be wearing. Chasing Shadows is the answer to all the questions you've been asking about what to wear in the warmer months! Hope you like this gear as much as we do...


The discrete clothing website is coming soon... www.discreteclothing.co.nz. In the meantime, check out their Facebook page or drop them an email at discreteclothing@gmail.com

Jimmy D, Until The Light Takes Us

Wow, wow, wow. Jimmy D took his usual aesthetic, love of oversized gear and a hint of punk to give us something that basically stole the show. So many people fell in love at first sight of his latest collection. Enjoy!

AYESAP, You Know It!

Gotta love it, amidst the future focus of Fashion Week, an email from the AYESAP© clothing crew reminds us that summer is just round the corner and have they got some great threads lined up for us...






Yep, the threads are sweet but just cos they love us, this time we get sounds too! Download and enjoy Let The Dubstep Volume 1. You can check out this summer's complete collection on Facebook, their website is coming back on line soon - and we'll let you know where to get these latest gears as soon as we know.

New Kids on the Block

It's always tough being part of the next generation, putting your work up alongside some of New Zealand's most well known and successful labels has gotta be scary. This year's New Generation group did and and did it with style. Well done guys.
