The Great Siggi Eggertsson

I first came across the Icelandic Illustrator Siggi Eggertsson when I saw the latest album of the band Delays, which he did the illustrations for. He has also done work for Gnarles Barkley, Nike, H&M and Mulberry. I particularly love his portraits of famous sport icons!












This is a recent fantastic animation he's done. It is made of over 400 images that he's created over the years, dating back to 2003.

London Fashion week

London Fashion week is here and I always have my London favorites of whom I wish I could buy the entire collection. Last season it was Charles Anastase, and I was a bit disappointed with PPQ who usually is my one and only love affair.

This time I loved them both!
Also check out the very cool prints of Mary Katrantzou and the edgy knits by Mark Fast...
