Feel the Love in a Pair of (New) Vintage Levi’s

May 28, 2009 @ 4:00 pm

The Tony Awards are on Sunday and the legendary rock-musical Hair is nominated for a whopping eight awards, including Best Costume Design. But Michael McDonald, the show’s wardrobe designer, can’t take all the credit. Levi’s created custom bohemian denim for the cast—think patchwork details, ultra wide legs and destroyed denim vests. The Summer of Love might seem distant memory, but you can still get your groove on in Levi’s newly released re-issues of archival styles. More

Dior’s new short film, “The Lady Noire Affair,” directed by Oscar-winner Olivier Dahan and starring the sensational Marion Cotillard isn’t lacking Hollywood power, but we couldn’t take our eyes off the real star—her handbag!
