The brainchild of Levi’s XX head, Maurizio Donadi Levi’s Made & Crafted has developed into well designed collection of modernized basics.

Paying attention to smaller details such as their intricate pattern making, reinforced pockets and industrial quality zippers; LMC becomes a more fashionable, elevated version of traditional Levi’s without losing sight of its roots…

Our Fall ’11 shipment arrived yesterday with some of the pieces featured above and two cuts in the denim: the ‘Tack’ slim fit jean; and, the ‘Ruler’ straight which is available in two washes. More pictures to come…

Serge Cardigan in Coal $198

CARDIGAN by Lynne Hiriak is a singular knitwear concept dedicated to the eponymous item. While designing for the likes of Michael Kors, Derek Lam and other well respected global brands, one constant remained—the request for more CARDIGANS. CARDIGAN by Lynne Hiriak intends to explore and push the boundaries of one limitless item. Of course now the line has expanded to include other styles as well.
