House of Cassette has been in the works for quite a while now. It’s the creative output of Peter Lee James and again boosts a whole collection, rather than being a t-shirt brand, which is rather refreshing. It’s based in L.A. and it’s focus are denims, very nice ones at that too. Peter was good enough to send some samples over a little while ago, and they’re killer. High quality denims, great finishes and good cuts. So good infact that Vogue France now even picked them up. Check the article here. Again, a brand to look for.

This should be a good one. Rick Klotz, the brainchild behind Freshjive & his companions spent three weeks in Mexico and even had some time to shoot some flicks, I know I wouldn’t. Rick’s photographic work has always been top notch, ranging from close up portrait shots on Skid Row to Mexican Gangs, so expect something real good at this show. If you will be in Barcelona next week this is a definite “must-attend” show. The show opens Wednesday, the 17th at 8pm at the Vallery Gallery. See you there.
