We would like to present to you our favorites from the upcoming F/W 2014 Faliero Sarti collection of scarves. As always, we were impressed by the materials and dye and felting techniques that make this brand a perennial favorite.
Recently we visited the atelier of Cedric Jacquemyn in the historic center of Antwerp. Here are some photos from our visit.

Last week we visited the showroom of Copenhagen-based brand Aleksandr Manamïs. We call it a ‘brand’ because we don’t know if Aleksandr Manamïs is a designer or just a name – they have done their best to remain anonymous, wishing their work to be the center of attention.
Since the start of the brand seven years ago, its development has been organic, with the size of the collections growing gradually. The F/W 2014 collection consists of little more than thirty pieces, and aims to provide a full wardrobe to the wearer. Manamïs’ collection is gender-neutral; for each piece, the cuts, for example through the recurring use of dropped shoulders and loose silhouettes that can be adjusted to the wearer’s body, are balanced to accommodate both male and female anatomies. The rest is taken care of through grading and sizing runs.
We would like to present to you Song for the Mute’s Fall/Winter 2014 menswear collection.
