ACNE in the Times UK



ACNE may seem like an unfortunate name for a such an innovative brand, but it hasn't seemed to stop the Stockholm-based creative studios from taking over the European market. ACNE Studios has expanded from a basic denim line born in 1996 to full men's & women's collections, a magazine, their own ad agency, and even jewelry. This article about the founder, Jonny Johansson, from the Times UK gives us an introduction to the face behind the name and the success.

Denim Guide: MiH Jeans

New on the Metier front is British denim line, MiH Jeans, a venture of Chloe Lonsdale, the 28-year-old goddaughter of the man who established Made in Heaven jeans in 1969. Back in the day the iconic denim line was a favorite among stylish celebrities like Jane Birkin and Farrah Fawcett. Thanks to the rebirth we can (once again) enjoy MiH's denim, pants and some great classic, button-down shirting. MiH is sure to gain notoriety will their "no frills" approach to live-in clothing.
