B/D: New Artists Series Apparel Designs,

May 23rd, 2007

Beautiful/Decay is excited to announce four completely new Artists Series Apparel designs from artists Jesse LeDoux, Aaron Noble, Dust La Rock and Jan Kallwejt. The shirts are available at American Rag CIE, Grey One, The Reed Space, The Closet, Metropark, Zebraclub and Beautiful Decayonline

These artists and designers, with their distinct subject matters, represent an extension of Beautiful/Decay creative content and vision.

As always, they are custom-cut, custom-dyed and printed on super soft, 100% cotton bodies.

Jesse LeDoux creates a cosmically inspired “Giant Hand” design which transforms from teal to pink with a universe of white line drawings enclosed within.

He combines his avant-garde design sensibility with basic drawing materials-”pens, pencils and a few sheets of paper.” Jesse LeDoux worked for over seven years as an art director and designer for Sub Pop Records, creating iconic album artwork for artists such as The Shins, Iron and Wine and Hot Hot Heat. In 2004 he launched his own illustration/design firm LeDouxville and currently works out of his studio in Providence, RI.

Jan Kallwejt’s “Lung Music” shirt features a musical take on the human internal organ system. Kallwejt’s work often features simple shapes, symbolic forms and clean, plain colors. Born in Warsaw, Poland, Kallwejt currently works with 4RK Unstable Media.

Artist Aaron Noble fashions a strikingly bold “Caliph” design that could be a comic book superhero’s hallucinatory nightmare. Noble is a west coast muralist and co-founder and director of the Seminal Clarion Alley Mural Project in San Francisco.

Artist and designer Joshua Prince a.k.a Dust La Rock’s design “Silent Weapon for Quiet Wars” features a masked figure riding a fantastical, hyper-colored horse. His work has been described as “heady” with surreal, psychedelic and anti-social tendencies. Dust La Rock currently works from his Brooklyn based studio.

True Love & False Idols,

May 23rd, 2007

Headquartered in Compton, California, True Love & False Idols is a fresh new apparel company embracing a philosophy both seductive and subversive: “to do what we love in a climate of lemmings, man-babies and pseudo heroes… to enjoy and believe in what we’re doing, take chances, have fun.”

An artist-owned and design-driven collective, TL&FI brings uncommon passion and daring to its work, creating men’s tops that push beyond anything seen before with innovative art, washes and embellishments. Making its official bow this past February at MAGIC’s Project Show in Las Vegas, the brand has already been flying off the racks at the best boutique and department stores in the U.S.

In addition to fully-lined, outside-printed hoodies that have garnered the most attention to date, True Love & False Idols launched with a broad line of custom-body t-shirts, long-sleeves, polos, wovens, blazers and jackets; more hoodies are expected by fall, with cashmere sweaters, new long-sleeve tees and seasonal jackets (from hunting jackets to parkas) expected for Holidays 2006. Using exclusively premium cotton, fleece, cashmere and other high-grade fabrics, the brand is further distinguished by a variety of artistic washes – from Bad Streak and Oil Stain to Acid and the jauntily named Yellowstone Park Geyser wash – as well as integrated appliqués, metal foils and other touches.

“Typically, our work is hand drawn and tends toward a wild, stream-of-consciousness, overdesigned look,” says Alex 2Tone, the company’s principal graphic designer, who indicates that the first season of True Love & False Idols is built around such themes as glittery idolatry, weaponry, redemption, desire, and the love of good hard music.

Its cursive-embellished logo, flowing tropical scenes and psychedelic-flavored collages find a complement in such fun and provocative designs as a flying squirrel (”Cocaine Breakfast”), an intentional Gucci knockoff (”You’re Only As Good As What You Steal”) and the highly scrolled and somewhat obscured exhortation (”Fuck the Industry”).

True Love & False Idols extends its creativity into subtle, watermark prints and flocked jackets with colorful, custom-printed lining, allowing a bright palette to give the brand its distinct upbeat sensibility, informed by the beach culture of Southern California. Says Alex 2Tone, “We’re not so dark and gloomy. We’re more Miami Vice than Bride of Frankenstein.”

Currently focusing on the men’s market with plans to expand into women’s wear, the brand courts upscale, discriminating consumers with its price point of $50-85 for tees, appx. $110 for wovens, $200-275 for hoodies, and $300 for jackets.

From the start of the year, True Love & False Idols has been available at Nordstrom department stores nationwide and at such high-end regional boutiques as Kitson, Fred Segal, M Fredric and The Lounge.

The company is moving to export its wares overseas as well, initially aiming for Canada, Japan, Australia and Europe.

True Love & False Idols was born of a collaboration between “the two Alexes”: Alex 2tone, UCLA film school dropout, L.A. graffiti veteran, freelance designer and most recently art director at Howe Denim, and one-time rival Alex Vaz, a recipient of both business and fashion undergraduate degrees who met 2Tone while a junior designer at Howe Denim.

Both shared a love of Korean barbeque, stolen music and inane humor, and from this partnership sprang a desire to create a line of original apparel. Vaz, who focuses on construction, producing and sourcing for the company, wanted to name it True Love. 2Tone, the graphic designer, pushed for False Idols, so the merged moniker represents a unity of both viewpoints.

Seen in the recent Jamie Foxx video, “Hey, DJ, Play Another Love Song,” True Love & False Idols also adorned the chest of Linkin Park rapper/keyboardist Mike Shinoda during the 2006 Grammy Awards and that of Fort Minor and S.O.B. rapper Ryu during an appearance on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” Look for it everywhere this Spring…

Monsieur T,

May 22nd, 2007

Monsieur T.®, a small streetwear label from Portland, Oregon, announces the debut of their Spring/Summer 2007 collection.

Each season their line grows and features more talented artists from around the world, many of whom have worked in one way or another in the skateboarding industry.

Two new artists joined the roster this season: Royal Remarkable from North Carolina and Delarocca from France. In addition to the newcomers, the line features designs by Monsieur T. regulars: the Berkley brothers, Bwana Spoons, and Martin Ontiveros (all from Portland), plus Matt Lyon from England, Emil Kozak from Denmark, Fernando Elvira from Spain, and Tomontherock from France.

The diverse range of artists brings a variety of graphic styles, from paper cuts to line drawings to photoshopped collages. It’s an eclectic mix, yet it comes together harmoniously to fit the Monsieur T. aesthetic of fusing art, skateboard culture, and street fashion. Monsieur T.’s shirts are in select independent boutiques worldwide, and also on their website Quentin Nguyen, owner and creative director of Monsieur T., is a French native who spent his youth skateboarding, snowboarding, and listening to loud music.

Monsieur T. was established in 2004. They are always on the lookout for inspired artists.

SHARK FINNING,

May 21st, 2007

Newest shirt “STOP SHARK FINNING” at Bant-shirts . Shark finning is an extremely serious problem which is threatening many species of sharks with extinction.

The money raised from the sale of this shirt is all going to support Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, an organisation that intervenes to stop illegal fishing and whaling, and who campaign to protect sharks and other ocean life.

(The practice of shark finning entails hacking off the shark’s fins on board the boat and throwing the rest of the shark - dead or alive - back into the ocean. There has been a massive growth in demand for shark fin soup in the Far East which has pushed the price of shark fins up to several hundred dollars per pound - the rest of the shark is of little commercial value and is often discarded to make room for other catch which will fetch a better price. Shark fin soup was traditionally consumed only as a delicacy, however with the increase in prosperity it is being consumed in massive and unsustainable amounts).
