FASHION DESIGNER WANTS TO DRESS HAMMERS

[chk]

I posted this in Asian Street Team, but thought I'd put it here as well.

I went to meet Danish fashion designer Peter Ingwersen, who creates the INCREDIBLE Noir collection. It was like meeting my long lost best friend.

We talked fashion, travel jetlag, and music. Natch, that combination of topics meant that a band called Lovehammers came up in the course of conversation. He was so excited when I told him about LH music and how I traveled to Chicago to see them because they were so hot.

And when I told him he needed to design a men's colleciton because his style is perfect for the LH lead singer, he said, "I want to dress your band. Promise to send me the CD!"OMG!!!

I am happy hammerhead.
go check out the Noir collection and tell me if I am not right about this, guys. Peter is super cool and very excited to hear band's music. So let's check out his cool clothes in return -- they look cool and provide sustainable support to 3rd world.


edited to add: I sent Peter an email with link to loverhammers.com and will send him CD asap. The Noir collection is currently only for women, but Peter has been asked many times to design for men. when I talked to him about LH, he was really pumped to do just that. The ironic thing is as I was leaving the event, the DJ was playing a re-mix of an INXS song!

C,

That is so awesome. Since Marty's wardrobe is gradually being auctioned off on Ebay, he'll be needing some new threads.

Or if not for the band, then for when Marty does his solo project ... he said it will be very ethereal and "out there" ... these clothes, adapted for a man (especially one with Marty's coloring and body), could look really incredible.

Wow

Hammers decked out in this designers clothes will be something truly spectacular and sexy to see. I can't wait.

Awesome news & Good Luck Chk!
