The Original Vamp Dress from Mode Merr

Posted on | Leave a comment

Vamp

Mode Merr's retro reproductions are always worth a look, thanks to their wearability and accuracy of styling. Their dress designs never fail to impress us thanks to the truly versatile pieces which tread the line of dressy and casual so well.

The Original Vamp Dress is one of a number of new designs, and is well worth a look. Easily adapted to suit rockabilly, pinup, or psychobilly wardrobes, this dress keeps it simple and sassy. The figure hugging material, and sexy off the shoulder neckline avoid making this trashy thanks to the block colours and kneelength hemline.

Get the dress in either colour online for just $62.

Eric Pfeiffer was the designer behind the Scando coffee table we featured last week and here is another product he has created for Offi, the W Magazine Stand, which has similar retro curves.

Made from moulded and folded plywood, the magazine rack quite obviously takes its name from the shape its contours make. The birch version is currently on sale at Nest, reduced to just under £135. Alternatively it is available in oak for around £190 or walnut for £221.

Visit the Nest website to buy.

Traditionally a lightweight cloth item, Baracuta is now offering something a little different for its slim-fit harrington G9 jacket – producing it in leather.

It's very much the classic G9 jacket aside from that finish, complete with the two front packets and elasticated waist and cuffs, plus that Fraser tartan mesh lining. But you do have that leather finish, described as a 'premium perforated leather. that you'll no doubt love or hate.

And for an asking price of £340, you'll really have to love it.

Ponti_occasional

Can you believe this design is over 75 years old? Well, the Gio Ponti Tavolino occasional table is just that.

A very modern modernist design from 1932, the Tavolino is newly-reissued by Fontana Arte and offering a polished nickel-plated brass structure, with two 15mm 'floating' glass discs for your bits and pieces, the whole thing standing around 61cm tall.

It's an incredibly stylish design, but at a price – £1,390 to be precise.

Miles_quintet

A take of two anniversaries has led to the launch of the Western Edition Miles Davis Quintet anniversary skateboards.

Western Edition itself is celebrating 10 years of board making, which also coincides with the 50th annoversary of Miles Davis' classic Kind of Blue album. So to celebrate, Western Edition has introduced a range of skateboards featuring the personnel of the Miles David Quintet – the people behind that iconic LP.

The series also includes t-shirts with the same designs (in a range of colours) and a set of postcards, which will be thrown in with every purchase of a board. No pricing available as yet, if you want to know more, give Western Edition a shout.
