June 2010

You guessed it. GUESS, the major fashion brand.

GUESS is soon opening it’s store in Barcelona; their first actual store in the cosmopolitan Spanish city, selling not only accessories, but also apparel, such as jeans, skirts and dresses. The store will sell all of the fashion house’s brands: GUESS, GUESS by Marciano, G by GUESS as well as Guess Factory. The long awaited Barcelona opening will take place on June 30th.

For those not so familiar with the brand and the philosophy and history behind it, GUESS was established already back in 1981 by the Marciano brothers, native to the south of France, who took to the States in pursuit of the American dream. Years later they still found themselves in America working hard to establish a name for themselves. Soon GUESS became a household name and “a symbol of a young, sexy and adventurous lifestyle”.

Enjoyed and loved by many, GUESS is now a global lifestyle brand with more than a thousand stores in over 80 countries around the world. And in a few days that also includes Barcelona, Spain. If you’re a GUESS-fan, why not pay their new store a visit, which can be found in the very heart of Barcelona, on the Passeig de Gracia street, no. 63.

We’ve finally reached the summer of 2010, and all the big names are already showcasing their collections for the coming Spring, 2011. As I have been hired as the stylist for a male friend of mine, I wanted to keep my eye on coming men’s trends. By the looks of it, the tone for next year looks a bit more down-to-earth, with harmonious and subtle colours combined with some strong textures in an attempt to create a flowing silhouette. But I found it all a bit too heavy for summer. Except for one: Jil Sander. Take a look and see the difference. Enjoy!
