Hackett’s AW09 accessories collection is a mammoth collection. Despite this post and the many previous ones before it, we still haven’t shown the full collection, but now we have shown all the highlights. As expected from such a deep collection, it covers everything from washbags to cufflinks. The Aston Martin Racing mini-collection (which includes the holdall we featured yesterday) is a particular highlight, but to end on a cliche, there’s something for everyone in this collection.

Take a look at the full range after the jump.

We know the traditionalists don’t like denim shorts, but as long as they’re not the stonewash denim they can look good. Knee length short lovers will be glad to know that these are indeed, erm, knee length. And if you don’t like the length, you can simply roll them up a little bit. The sizing is a little generous – very generous compared to Cheap Monday’s usual sizing. Get these from Farfetch.

Check after the jump for detailed shots.

Farfetch recently caught up with Henrik Vibskov and gave an interesting interview. Vibskov followers will know that his fashion shows are unlike any other, with the atmosphere closer to a gig than a fashion show. Farfetch asks Vibskov about his AW09 show, how he got into fashion and his upcoming plans and projects. When asked about if he purposely went about merging fashion with art, he responded:

No, I don’t even think in those categories… I follow my ideas and then work out in which project they fit. I don’t think about fashion and all its rules and systems.

03. Video: Japanese astronaut surfs through space on ‘flying carpet’

“The Japanese can turn pretty much anything into a variety show. So it’s no real surprise to hear that the Japanese public have issued a set of 16 zero-gravity challenges to be carried out by Jaxa astronaut, Koichi Wakata, during his time at the International Space Station.” (engadget)

One essential element of summer travel is your toiletry bag. It may be even more important than a regular change of undergarments and more versatile. You probably stuff it with toothpaste, brushes, and shaving kits, but as I learned during my last return from Los Angeles, carrying too much shaving cream will get you the full pat down treatment (no joke). REN Skincare solves the travel dilemma with their “Perfect Shave Set” made up of small essentials that will give you face the perfect finish it deserves by pre-cleansing your skin with a variety of “clean bio” natural oils before you take the blade to face. The High Glide Cooling Shave Cream does well in lubricating the blade during shave – something most foams and gels cannot achieve.

Check out REN’s Perfect Shave Set. It’s worth a test run at home or during your Summer travels.

Springtime calls for some ease in wears. This Western inspired shirt from Takel has a rather nice pattern that flows well. It’s priced well at 75$US and features snap closures and finish. Simply a great look for the good weather. (alter)

Previewed back in December on Selectism, London’s Mr. Hare deserves another look with their Autumn/Winter 2009 collection ready for the taking. There is no shortage of models with names ranging from Genet, Thompson, and Orwell. Choose your poison.

Louis Vuitton expands their support of the Arts with a new show at the Hong Kong Museum of Art in collaboration with the Consulate General of France (in HK). Louis Vuitton: “A Passion for Creation” lands in the middle of the 17th French May Arts Festival in HK. The show is broken into three parts “each of which deals with different aspects of the [Vuitton] House’s activities and projects…” As well, the facade of the museum is being “wrapped” up with the “After Dark” series by Richard Prince and gives the Victoria Harbour of Hong Kong “a new facade.”

The exhibit is runs through August 9th at the Hong Kong Museum of Art.
