As all eyes have moved onto New York Fashion Week, I’m still happy to have discovered the smaller yet sophisticated. One of the most delightful “discoveries”—this, of course, for someone living on the other side of the world—is. The house was launched five years ago by Danish designer Birger, who seems to be quite well appreciated. (And, may I say, when I opened up ’s February issue yesterday, guess whose ad I saw?) But the publicity is well deserved.

And By Malene Birger’s latest outing proves it. Autumn/Winter 2010 collection was relaxed and elegant with a occasional infusion of luxe. Take the fur vest that the first model strutted down an indoor field of autumn leaves luxurious yet approachable. At other times, comfy sweatpants were paired blazers for a cofident, easy-going look. Before going back into Nordic fashion, I thought it’d might be a good idea to head back to the Pacific. I’m currently digging the new Tukupu line of tanks and tees from, the production company founded by recording artist Tiki Taane.

Gudrun & Gudrun’s Autumn/Winter 2010 showing in Copenhagen reminded me that style doesn’t always originate in the world’s urban centers, an idea that we should take more to heart in the Pacific region., in fact, comes from the very antipodes of the fashion capitals. The label was founded by two women from the, a remote chain of islands in the North Atlantic with a population of just 45,000 with a language closely related to Old Norse. Holistic Simulation Of Geotechnical Installation Processes That Shape. The label’s unique look comes from the isolation of the Faroe Islands paired with an occasional burst of energy from Europe.

However, it’s not just Gudrun & Gudrun’s distance that makes G&G gear simultaneously comforting yet so cool. Key to the label’s sensibility is their credo of “slow fashion”, which was developed into a.

The core material of their collection is wool and hide from the islands’ sheep, introduced by the over 1,000 years ago. The chilling, rugged environment creates wool of exceptional quality and resiliance.

Not only are the label’s materials sourced from its home. The label’s most exquisite pieces are handcrafted by women from the Faroe Islands in the comfort of their homes, not in some invisible, nameless factory.

But as these runways shots from G&G’s showing at A/W 2010 (see more of the collection ), G&G is not about folklore of yesteryear. Some of these pieces are ineffably modern and edgy but emanate a surprising warmth nevertheless. I would imagine Vikings from some futuristic, sci-fi saga suiting up in these kind of deconstructed sweaters and boots. It’s this kind of fashion that makes me miss the chill of winter. Thankfully, G&G does offer a Spring/Summer collection for those who brave warmer climates. Nevertheless, I’d say aim for something short-sleeve like the. Of course, the is still tempting for anywhere with heavy air conditioning.

Gudrun & Gudrun – The Breakdown Who Wears It Apparently, G&G is popular amongst the Faroese themselves. It comes as no surprise as that G&G counts the Japanese amongst their main international fans. Rarity Factor Despite the Japanese fan contingent, G&G is not widely available, making a G&G Faroese sweater a visual standout.
