Creatures of the Wind

July 8th, 2009

Here’s another conceptual label to wet your cerebral whistle. Chicago based duo Christopher Peters and Shane Gabier create clean pieces that are rife with interesting details (macramé overlay, folds and tucks, and skillful draping) for their label, Creatures of the Wind. The less than a year old label is being very carefully marketed and is currently only stocked at Scout, Hejfina, and Stand Up Comedy (all previously featured here).

Given that they’ve caught the eye of W already, this brand is likely to be one to watch. I wish there were more photos of the F/W 08 collection.

Stand Up Comedy

December 10th, 2008

During my search on Monday for shops that carried Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair, I stumbled across Portland boutique, Stand Up Comedy. While their site design is a touch clunky, it’s worth the minor frustration you have to endure to browse. They have a great little selection of every art hipster’s favourite indies, and they don’t just carry clothing. There is also an interesting assortment of books, accessories, and other objects to choose from, as well.
