The guys over at Paris’ Guillotine bring us coverage from the (capsule) show in France while we finish up in Spain at BBB. Our Legacy gets it started with their Autumn/Winter preview.

Dazed Digital caught up with Kanye West at the launch of his Louis Vuitton collaboration and asked him a few questions about how he got into fashion, his aspirations as a designer and how his LV collab came about. When asked about how he got into fashion West replied:

“I picked out my own clothes when I first went to kindergarten and there’s no turning back since. And I’ve always been into clothes and I’ve always been into myself. And none of that’s changed since I’ve become a celebrity. It’s just allowed me to be more into myself and more into clothes!”

We must commend Mr West for his fine taste in blogs. Read the full interview over at Dazed Digital.

Selectism is proud to bring you this exclusive first look into the forthcoming adidas SLVR Collection for Spring/Summer 2009. 

“The adidas SLVR label’s key message is ‘Simply Perfect’. The range shows a timeless and considered design; one that conveys a minimalist character, yet is fresh and progressive. The collection includes apparel, footwear and accessories for both men & women.  

The adidas SLVR Film was shot by renowned photographer Mark Segal and art directed by Pietsch Lim. The film brings the new concept to life through strong yet effortless black and white visuals and a sound track by Say Hi to Your Mom. 

The adidas SLVR label will launch globally in February 2009.”

Adidas SLVR not only produced a great video preview of the coming line but how about that track from Say Hi to Your Mom? We love it.  Expect big things on the horizon from SLVR. From this end, we promise to bring further looks from the adidas SLVR line very soon here on Selectism. More to come…

TIGA’s first big musical hit came with his version of Corey Harts 80’s hit “Sunglasses at Night” back during the early days of the “Electroclash” movement. Today, with the help of Australia’s Ksubi, he re-invents sunglasses again in the form of an eyeglass frame. Black in color and unique in shape, TIGA has the following to say on the look.

“I hate sunglasses, they get between me and the sun…. but if I wore them they would be like the ones I hand-designed for ksubi….the arms are specially engineered to support any ear size, the “glasses” part aren’t even glass, but a hyper-modern plastic lens that rarely falls out and when it does can be popped back into place they are black and absorb heat leaving your nose and face extra cool.”

Personally, I like the look of TIGA for Ksubi. Fits in with my dark side.

We’ve featured Alexander McQueen’s SS09 collection a couple of times now, but this skull print tee is too good to go without mention. Graphic print tees aren’t exactly hard to come by but the picture used is absurdly detailed and the print is large enough to appreciate the effort that would have gone into creating it. It’s available in grey and white and you can get it from Liberty.

New from Design Within Reach is a kitchen. A departure from their usual product line (primarily reproduction mid-century icons), the firm worked with designer Nilus de Matran on the project. His thought was to utilize modular pieces to best draw the kitchen space into the dinning room. The kitchen can now be ordered from DWR’s SoHo Studio.

In memory of the 20th anniversary of Salvidor Dali’s death the Guardian has produced a fun slide show of some favorites from the artist as well as a few photographs. It serves as a quick career recap and reminder of the man’s legacy and work. Check it in full here.

A few selections follow.

GQ Style Spy turns us onto these J.M Weston limited edition code 222 shoes. They’re called the code 222 because that’s the amount of stages of preparation that J.M Weston go through. GQ reports:

“The futuristic-sounding Code 222 is a handmade hybrid of two traditional styles, the Oxford and the Derby, and each pair is individually numbered on a leather window in the lining, while your initials are discreetly inscribed under the tongue to put a personalised spring in your step.”

To get these, you’ll have to go to the London flagship store, where they’ll set you back £1,150.

Whyred’s A/W 2009 collection showing at Bread & Butter shows the company is pushing forward, featuring pieces that would suit anything from workwear to a tailored look. Highlights were a grey holdall, some brown brogues with some interesting cross stitching and a hooded trench coat, although the entire collection was strong. Check after the jump for more pictures.

We past through the Fred Perry booth this afternoon at Bread & Butter Barcelona and discovered this Wax Harrington Jacket. “Made in England [from fly weight Millerain fabric], the jacket has a cord lined press stud collar, 2 press stud handwarmer pockets, inside zip pocket, vented back, elasticated cuffs and hem, Fred Perry tartan check liner…” Available now from Oi Polloi.
