Feeling Jealous?

Feeling Jealous?

In Australia we take pride in our summer festivals. Big Day Out, Laneway and The Falls festivals always have an impressive lineup and having a good times is always a certainty. But even these festivals combined pale in comparison to the excitement of Barcelona’s Primavera Sound. Sure, Glastonbury may be bigger in size, and a little dirtier too, and Coachella has California, but Primavera is the boutique music festival. And the acts are just as impressive, if not more so. Can you imagine sunning yourself in the gorgeous Spanish sunshine listening to the likes of Beach House, Grizzly Bear, Coco Rosie and Sleigh Bells. Summer bliss.

Frost Birgen

Frost Birgen

There were very few designers who presented menswear collections on the catwalk which is somewhat surprising, considering how sophisticated men's fashion is in Copenhagen. Fortunately Canvas caught sight of the new winter collection from relative newcomer Frost Birgens.

The Return Of Risto

The Return Of Risto

With an exotic name that just rolls of the tongue, there's almost an expectation to the kind of clothes Risto Bimbiloski designs. Nuances of colour, clothing that is richly decorated and adorned. Having featured the Macedonian native, New-York based designer previously on our blog it's fair to say one should never expect anything but to be surprised.

Missing Lines & Hard Shapes

Missing Lines & Hard Shapes

We really like Danish design label Won Hundred's relaxed sophistication. Slim silhouettes, classic tailoring, functional fashion. A minimalist label, Won Hundred creates a style where each season sees subtle shifts in details and proportions, all the while staying true to an original aesthetic.

The Slippery Spiral Situation

The Slippery Spiral Situation

Vibskov is one of those rare designers who exists entirely in a universe of his own. In the collective imagination fashion is a synonym for clothes, but for Vibskov fashion is a sense, a visual language. He presents his ideas and concepts as live events, a collaboration where the boundary between the worlds of art and fashion is creatively blurred, all the while rejecting transient fashion trends.
