Acne x Daniel Silver “Capsule Collection”
Acne has collaborated with London-based artist Daniel Silver to create a one-off capsule collection.
Featuring Silver’s prints the collection is described as using ”Fabrics are slightly raw and tribal in style, Daniel has a strong relationship with Africa and so we embraced this in the collection, there is painted leather, a lot of print and a lot of naive texture.”

NEW INSPIRATIONAL MAGAZINE
Danish fashion brand Rützou has just announced the launch of their publication ‘The Chronicle’ – a new visual-oriented biannual magazine.
The magazine is designed in a way where it’s easy for the reader to tear out the pages and bring them into their own moodboards, to pin favourite images up on a wall, re-paint them or use them to write a letter to someone special. The hope by this design is to make it a humble contribution from Rützou to other creative people by presenting what The Chronicle find interesting within art, photography, people and places.
The first issue includes memories of artist Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010), ‘From Fauna to Flora’ by American photographer Arthur Meehan and 12 pages with inspirational snap shots.

The Men + Women of Marc Jacobs
This Monday, a new book, “The Men + Women of Marc Jacobs,” makes its debut. It’s a photo essay of more than 150 employees, photographed by Brian Bowen Smith, the photographer behind the firm’s celebrities-in-the-buff charity shots from 2006.
“The Men + Women of Marc Jacobs” has its origins in a series of snapshots Brian Bowen Smith started taking three-and-a-half years ago. At the time, he was traveling with the Marc Jacobs crew to store openings and business trips; at each stop, whether Milan or Moscow, Smith would take photographs of the staff — just because.
“We never really planned anything,” he explains. “An employee would run out with me for 15 minutes and do one of those shots. It was very spontaneous.”
When Smith and Robert Duffy (Marc Jacobs business partner) eventually decided to produce the book, the formula stayed the same. “No assistants, just the kids and me and my little Leica. We’d go and bang the shots out,” says Smith, adding, however that “after people knew what I was doing, the word spread. They were ready for me if I came into town.”
I have yet to find out where to actually buy this book – I’ll keep you posted.
