I got my hands on the Spring 2010 Lookbook of Canadian brand, Naked & Famous Denim. I have to say I am quite impressed. The women's offerings aren't as extensive as the men's, but the less-restrictive take on a normally sexy silhouette such as the skinny jean is fun and fresh. The standout pieces, however, are definitely all in menswear.
Naked & Famous Denim likes to experiment with texture and blends. Many jeans in the men's range are made of cotton/silk blends and cotton/cashmere blends with scratched, brushed and raised surfaces. They also have fun with styles such as the 'Snowpant' denim that is a 100% cotton shell with a bonded fleece interior, rayon lining and zippers at the ankles. For those of us that are ready to jump on the denim-on-denim trend, they make the most excellent slim-fitting denim shirts that come in either a light-grey wash, dark indigo wash or pinstripes. Still not impressed, the selvedge denim, resin-coated ties are a new idea and a must see along with the denim tweed duffle bags.
All of their product is made in Canada and uses 100% Japanese denim. With product like this, Naked & Famous Denim is definitely a brand I will be keeping my eye on. Click below to see the entire collection.
