Week 9

Name: Ethan

Occupation: N/A

Favourite shop: Hackett/Ralph Lauren

Never be caught in: Topman

Anyone that has a place in their heart for Hackett and Ralph Lauren, has a nice comfy chair next to Hackett and Ralph Lauren in my heart. After Ethan and I exchanged our views on quality shirts, I complimented his amazing tan leather Oxfords which he purchased in Italy.

Name: Joshua

Occupation: Jaeger Menswear Designer and Bespoke Tailor - Joshua Kane Bespoke

Favourite shop: Jaeger

Never be caught in: The High Street as it’s too busy, enjoys quieter shopping experience

The first thing I noticed as I stepped into Starbucks - to purchase a refreshing strawberry and cream frappuccino - was Joshua’s stand-out blazer, one that he made himself.

The rest of his ensemble complements his blazer wonderfully; from the blue button-down shirt and elegant watch to the slim navy tie and scissor tie bar. A very classic look with a dash of on-trend, rolled-up fitted jeans.

Name: Jee

Occupation: Assistant Buyer/Product Merchandiser for Oki-Ni

Favourite shop: Eclectic

Never be caught in: N/A

For all the street wear heads out there, you’ll recognise and respect Jee’s Nike X Hideout Air Footscape Woven sneakers. The same sneakers that had enthusiasts lining up at 4am on the day of their release in Tokyo…I wonder if Jee was there?

Anywho, his gilet is great too, as it ties his look together really well against the navy. And the neck detail on his top - two thumbs up!

VA-G Eclectic Zip Up

I’ve always been a fan of eye-catching garments; clothes that make you take a second look. Not just in terms of patterns, but in terms of engineering too. Originality stems from a yearning to be different, to be yourself. I’ve come to learn that many designers do not reflect their creativity in what they chose to personally wear, but the boys over at VA-G have been living their brand before they even KNEW they wanted to design.

I’ve seen the boys around London over the last few years and have always noticed how well kept they are. Always looking fresh, always looking a little different from the crowd. This jumper, taken from their last collection, represents their way of life down to a T. Vibrant, original and full of intriguing pattern work, no wonder they called it the VA Eclectic zip up!

A definite stand out piece. To check out their new collection, visit their new website.

Week 8

Name: Ade

Occupation: Armani Employee

Favourite Shop: Levi

Never be caught in: Selfridges

The double denim look can be a tough one, especially when putting together two different washes of the same colour. But I think Ade has done a good job, also throwing in some nice earthy tones here and there with his accessories. Even though it doesn’t float some peoples boats, I’m a fan of the fox tail!

Name: Johnny

Occupation: Musician

Favourite Shop: Portobello Market

Never be caught in: Abercrombie & Fitch

I really like how Johnny’s taken it back with the his vintage velvet blazer, teamed with an A/W favourite Uniqlo flannel shirt. And accompanied by a hand made bow tie by BOW, he shows how you can create an individual look by being eclectic and mixing vintage with high street.

Name: John

Occupation: Guest Services Manager for Alfred Dunhill

Favourite Shop: Dunhill

Never be caught in: Next

John’s look is immaculate - I was surprised I left him without receiving multiple cut wounds. His Prince of Wales check suit, which is from Dunhill, is a perfect fit. I could go on and on really, but I’d rather just let you bask in his stylish ambiance!

In the words of the chief,

Stay Stylish

Paris December 09

2009 was a great year for us here at Individualism, and for me personally, it saw me do the most traveling I have ever done. Partly due to organised friends and cheap flights, we managed to visit New York, Miami, Newcastle, Stockholm and Paris. I’m no Facehunter but these five trips really opened my eyes.

I realised that there are so many passionate, like-minded people out there, so one of my New Year’s resolutions is to expose you guys, our cherished and dedicated followers, to as much global talent as possible. So while we get the videos up-to-scratch in our editing suite, here are some pictures from my last trip to Paris.

Enjoy…

One of the most creative store entrances I ever witnessed.

Made to feel welcome.

Always working.
