4 Stroke Jeans and rock'n'roll royalty

The creators of 4 Stroke Jeans know how to make their denim look appealing--by putting it on Keith Richards' model-slash-socialite daughter, Theodora.

The company, which launched nearly two years ago, names each of its denim styles after a famous concert venue. And in keeping with one of the music industry's favorite pet causes, 4 Stroke is also eco-friendly, using organic fabrics and laundries that recycle their water.

Our favorite look from 4 Stroke's latest collection is the Saville jean, a wide-legged, dark-denim pair that we're sure Theodora's mother, former model Patti Hansen, would have swooned over in the 1970s.

The life and times of L'Wren Scott

Stylist turned designer L'Wren Scott has led a very eventful life, to say the least, thus far.

She began her foray into fashion as a successful model walking the runways of Chanel and other coveted designers before she started styling and designing full-time. Oh yeah, her boyfriend is Mick Jagger, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones.

A couple of weeks ago, the 6'4 beauty (yup, she's mighty tall) was profiled by New York Times Magazine. While Scott's life story would sound just as interesting if it were typed out, the little video featuring pictures of why she's amazing is much more aesthetically pleasing. Enjoy, darlings.

Manuel Bozzi debuts 'University of Rock 'n' Roll' collection

If rock is dead, Manuel Bozzi didn't get the memo -- or maybe Italian designer just doesn't care. Really, aside from the reference to a pretty mediocre Jack Black movie, we think his University of Rock 'n' Roll collection does a pretty good job capturing the mysticism of classic rock in accessories you might actually wear. Some of the designs are more subtle than others, but most of them don't look like they came from Hot Topic.

His inspiration for this season's collection is an imaginary university where one can go to learn the ways of Rock. Most of his inspiration is drawn from the classic styles of the 60's and 70's -- and of course icons like LV model Keith Richards. All of his pieces are meant to get cooler with age, i.e. silver styles that tarnish, leather that looks better as it wears. We really like the alligator belt buckle.

There's one thing that troubles us about this University of Rock 'n' Roll concept: if there was such a university, wouldn't the students drop out, because that's the most rock 'n' roll thing to do?

Jerry Hall selling her Mick Jagger wedding dress dirt cheap

Email thisPosted May 20th 2008 at 11:34AM by Josh Loposer

Want to get your hands on a piece of discount fashion and music memorabilia? Supermodel and actress Jerry Hall is auctioning off the dress she wore when she and Mick Jagger to their vows in Bali. Apparently, she's cleaning house and wants to unload about 70 items from her somewhat charmed fashion career. Supposedly, the dress is going to sell for somewhere between $600-$1000. That's not a typo. The proceeds are going to charity, and the prices are 'pre-specified' -- because Jerry wants them to be affordable.

Seriously, if it's for charity, why price it so low? That's less than lots of brides pay for their normal wedding dresses, much less a dress that a supermodel and a Rolling Stone did God knows what in. As you might imagine, most of the stuff that Jerry's getting rid of is high-end designer clothing, so almost everything in the auction is going to be a huge bargain. If we bought something, we'd totally flip it on Ebay.

Keith Richards donates leather face to Louis Vuitton

Email thisPosted Mar 3rd 2008 at 2:00PM by Josh Loposer

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

In another weird advertising move from Louis Vuitton, they've decided to feature the wrinkled mug of none other than rock-god Keith Richards in the next wave of their "Core Values" campaign. Although I'm not sure his style is really suited for a LV, I do think the decision was a million times better than their goofy TV commercial. Not to mention, they put Annie Leibovitz behind the camera -- instant classic.

I have to agree with LV's head of communications, who said "I think when people are flipping through a magazine, this will stop them," -- yeah, that's why I clicked on it. My first thought was: WTF? Keith Richards in a hotel room playing his axe next to a piece of LV luggage? Or, I guess it's a custom guitar case.

It's cool to see that LV has enough of a sense of humor about their luxury brand to juxtapose it with a sloppy, burned-out rocker. Promoting super-expensive luggage as ironic fashion accessories is a hilarious idea. Unfortunately, I'm not into $3,000 jokes -- unless they're really funny. The photo in itself is a work of art, at least their money produced something worthwhile, whether or not it will actually sell any luggage.
