Fashion / Shop Stockholm Syndrome
Posted by Brett Glass on Mon, Sep 15, 2008 at 2:10 PM
I'm really excited about two things coming from Europe's trendiest city this fall: the film Mammoth starring Michelle Williams and the amazingly cool men's/women's line Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair.
Fifth Avenue's clean, hyper-modern aesthetic reminds me of mid-90s Helmut Lang. Interesting, yet infinitely wearable. And unique: Stand Up Comedy is the only store in the Pacific Northwest carrying the line. What I'm most excited about? A suit that Stand Up owner Diana calls:
A men's suit...but a variation on the traditional blazer and pant - it's a cropped pant and a bomber for the top.
Don't have a photo of that yet, but here's one of the women's pieces, the "Pillow Jacket."
