WEAR it

Knickerbockers are back. Well, that’s according to internationally renowned Italian fashion brand Gas’s new autumn/winter collection, which is fronted by movie star Daniel Wu’s model miss, Lisa S. You can grab yourself a pair – of knickerbockers, not Hong Kong celebs – at LCX, Harbour City, Ocean Terminal, Level 3, TST.
LACE it

Two-time NBA All-Star Stephon Marbury has launched a line of shoes sold only in American discount store Steve and Barry’s for the prim price of US$15. And it’s not all just for show: our new favourite sports star wears the ‘Starbury’ for every game. He wants to show just how little it costs to produce a pair of sneakers. Of course, being part of China, we already knew that. Find out more at www.starbury.com.

 

SOOTHE it

CK it

The world’s hottest cokehead fronts Calvin Klein Jeans’ new fall/winter women’s collection.

Warm browns, golds, tans, greens, cool blues and navy.
