Nouveau Spotlight: Shelfies

Posted in Nouveau Spotlight with tags Art, Canadian Brands, Fashion, Photo Realism Sweaters, Shelfies.com, Style, The Black Nouveau on March 24, 2013 by James Field

So one day when I was surfing along on the internet superhighway looking for some cool brands, I happened to stumble upon one of the coolest EVER!

Shelfies is a new Canadian based apparel company specializing in these INCREDIBLE photo realistic, printed sweaters. I absolutely think they are such a fresh burst of vibrancy which is totally what the industry needs right now. I really enjoy the colors and the “take a double look” factor when you walk into a room with one of these awesome sweaters.

Yeah they will make you hungry, but more importantly make you look cool as well, a cucumber! Haha get it? Because one of my favorites is the cucumber sweater? Ahhhh….I know my jokes suck lol.

Check out Shelfies and see for yourself!

T by Alexander Wang Spring 2013 x Bon Qui Qui

Posted in Nouveau Spotlight with tags Alexander Wang Spring 2013, Anjelah Johnson, Bon Qui Qui MAD TV, Fashion, New York Boutiques, Style on January 30, 2013 by James Field

Its been reported that there has been a steady decline in customer-service and who know’s more about customer service than Alexander Wang?

The incredibly talented MAD Tv actress Anjelah Johnson’s character Bon Qui Qui is hired at Alexander Wang store and serves up the rudeness to unsuspecting tres chic clients such as Alessandra Ambrosio, Simon Doonan, and Mr A$AP Rocky. I thought it was very witty way to promote the store (even though the service there is pretty, well snobbish lets be honest) as well as bring some laughter and fun back into the swing of things.

Enjoy!

RUDE! lol

Ready?....

Its almost here! New York Fashion Week is kicking off in less than two weeks and I can feel the excitement rising. For the most part, I hope the great names we love and covet bring us just that, EXCITEMENT back into fashion. With all that has happen within the fashion world thus far, most notably the arrival of Raf Simmons at Dior and Alexander Wang now at the helm of Balenciaga people are on edge for whats to come.

Excited for the most part to be inspired again and see what people will be talking about this season.

Nouveau Spotlight: The Row Resort 2013

In honor of Mary-Kate & Ashlen Olsens win for the CFDA Womenswear Designer of The Year for their genius work on The Row, I figured it only appropriate for my favorite resort collection this season belong to them. The twins have really conjured up a brand that will live on and flourish, just as they will. Featuring some of the best craftsmanship and attention to detail and cut that I have ever seen, supplemented with accessories that are equally phenomenal, it has truly become a brand to be reckoned with. I have been a loyal fan since its debut, and I will continue to support and cheer for them in my own small way. Take a look at some of my favorite looks from the Resort 2013 collection below.

Just superb work in my opinion, full of ethereal silhouettes and beautiful cuts. I look forward to the evolution of The Row and how it will change with the future of fashion and technology.
