GANT Rugger presents its lookbook for Fall/Winter 2013, offering a complete range of apparel for the upcoming season. The brand used a rustic kitchen as the background for its most recent line, which nicely compliments the fresh ingredients of the collection. Cable knit sweaters, light denim, and cropped woolen pants are prominently featured throughout the lookbook, which takes cues from preppy blue-blood aesthetics and reinterprets them for the modern-day. Of course, the importance of a casual shirt can never be understated, and as such GANT Rugger offers a spread of chambray, oxford, and seersucker tops to pair with its other gear.

The collections of A Kind Of Guise feature a mix of a wide variety of styles, putting effort into every piece’s uniqueness with a special focus on color and detail. Their Fall/Winter Collection 2012 is entitled ’The Carpathian Season’. This is their discriptive text to the concept of the collection:

A year ago a good friend of ours decided to leave everything behind, to live a lonely life somewhere in the outback of south-east europe. His journey led him to an ostrich farm near the serbian border. Ever since he lives there raising ostriches.

He kindly invited us and early  this winter we decided to pay him a visit.

Once being there we took the chance to travel across nearby countries, getting to know their culture and people..

As it was in previous collections this experience of changing our environment and getting to know something new heavily influenced our next Autumn/Winter collection for 2012.

 

The way of life and the attitude of the people we meet is what we try to translate into our products. This time the “Carpathian Season” is the outcome of this process.

Charles Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection wasn’t just the inspiration for the denim label of the same name, it was also the mantra. Evolve, or perish. Shot by London firm Hidden Agency, the contemporary British denim label recently released this video lookbook showcasing its Fall/Winter 2012 collection in various depictions of forward, evolutionary movement. Also evidenced by the video, simplicity reigns supreme in the classic jacket and pant silhouettes being offered in four distinct washes. Starting on August 23, the collection can be perused from the new multi-featured Natural Selection online shop, here.

Japanese brand Neighborhood is back this season with a new website and along with that also presents for the first time an official digital collection lookbook for its Fall/Winter 2012 Collection. Highlighting stand out pieces from its new collection, a lookbook is always a great way of not only focussing on specific product, but more importantly the overall look and style of a brand and the way the brand imagines their clothing to be combined.

Neighborhood presents a nice range of solid outerwear for the new design and once again impresses with an incredible amount of detail on each one of their collection pieces. The accessories range is also great, including from more regular pieces, such as caps and bags, to more unique pieces, such as biker helmets.
