Take an item of clothing and transform it into a piece of contemporary art! That appears to be the Morphine Generation concept and the basis of their meteoric rise to fashion stardom. Some fashion commentators have mistakenly compared Morphine Generation to Buddhist Punk and I.C.R. Deth Killers. This comparison does a gross disservice to each brand. Morphine Generation has a powerful and unique style that bares very little comparison to any other brand. In a confused nutshell Morphine Generation is uniquely unique!
Started in a dingy garage in Hollywood, CA over the summer of 2003, morphine generation was founded by L.A. rock musician/graphic artist Erik Hart and L.A. based director/fashion photographer Elliot Hans. 
Erik combined the emotion of his music and his aggressive performances with Elliot’s keen eye for photographic beauty to create the inspiration for their clothing, “Rock n Roll, Decadence and Luxuryâ€. With no formal fashion training and just three handmade samples, the boys got orders from some of the worlds top high end accounts. The line consists of one-of-a-kind hand distressed t-shirts and polos (as of yet). All garments are made from the finest and most luxurious cottons, which are designed to drape and compliment any body type. Each garment is silk screened with original artwork which screams and shouts to be seen.
Morphine Generation has come a long way since that dingy garage in 2003. The Morphine Generation today includes not just the famous Tees, but also Jeans, Hoodies, Jackets, Swimwear and much more. Today the brand is widely and equally respected on the street and in the high-end fashion stores.
The Rogan volcano is starting to rumble. People are talking about the low-profile brand and an air of excitement and expectation is starting to build. Many top fashionistas will tell us that Rogan Jeans are currently some of the best available in the world and the whole Rogan Clothing line is “poetry in cut and cloth”!
Is Etienne Ozeki a real flesh and blood fashion designer? On the official Etienne Ozeki website it says: “Etienne Ozeki was born in Monbassa, Kenya, the son of a French mother and a Japanese father. He was a global traveler from an early age as his mother cultivated links throughout the world as a roving ambassador for a large multi-government fund organisation. His father documented their journeys in words, print, photography and sculpture.”
So who exactly is Ted Baker? Is Ted Baker a real flesh and blood fashion designer born and raised as Ted Baker? In fact, Ray Kelvin is the closest man to the brand name Ted Baker. Yes, Ted Baker is a brand name and not a flesh and blood fashion designer Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Ben Sherman, Paul Smith, Stella McCartney or any other famous British fashion designer.
Elvis Jesus the glammed-up T-shirt line by Ringspun is causing something of a stir. You might mistakenly believe the stir is in the fashion-world for the bejeweled Tees studded with sparkles are certainly eye-catching. However, the real stir is in the religious-world; many Christians consider the irreverent designs no less than blaspheme and the depiction of Jesus Christ in Elvis garb and poses sacrilegious.
Giorgio Armani has apparently agreed a deal with Japanese high-tech sportswear brand Mizuno to create a new generation of high fashion and high tech sneakers. Most of the fashion world will no doubt be saying: Not another sodding collaboration between a high profile fashion house and a recognised sportswear brand! Collaboration fever looks like it’s here to stay for at least the forseeable future; Alexander McQueen and Puma, Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas, Evisu and Puma and the list goes on and on, including a reputed collaboration between Adidas and Porsche.
Pop Queen Shakira, the woman who wants to redeem us with her mesmeric hips, has received an award from the United Nations for her humanitarian work to help women trying to escape poverty in developing countries.
Mr Marc Jacobs, the original Stinky Rat, is a very rare and valuable commodity; he is a Fashion Designer in the true and original meaning of the phrase. In these days of hype and burn fashion, it’s refreshing to know that an old-school passionate fashion designer in the mould of the true “greats” still exists to pass on the legacy. Marc Jacobs’ flamboyant and infectious style is both innovative and at the same time strangely reminiscent of the great qualities of the past. It’s perhaps this paradox that makes Marc Jacobs one of the finest designers of the modern age.
Baby Phat first came into existence as a publicity tool. Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons produced tiny tees with the clever name “Baby Phat” to electrify his men’s Phat Farm runway shows. When celebrities and models such as Tyra Banks and Claudia Schiffer started wearing these tees, they became such a phenomenon that the decision was made to launch an entire Baby Phat collection.
