Erik Hart Set To Launch MG Black Label

Some­times a chang­ing econ­omy calls for a new game plan. Erik Hart has put a halt to his self-​​titled line and is launch­ing a Mor­phine Gen­er­a­tion dif­fu­sion line to cap­i­tal­ize on the high-​​street mar­ket. Bank­ing on the suc­cess of low whole­sale prices paired with styl­ish mod­ern clothes, MG Black Label will debut next week at Project in Las Vegas. [WWD]

Pic­tures from The Fash­ion Spot

The Guardian Interviews Henry Holland

On his rela­tion­ship with Agy­ness Deyn:

“I’m not stu­pid. I know that Agy­ness being a muse and friend has helped get my brand out there because she gar­ners so much atten­tion, but it’s not a con­trived fash­ion friend­ship. We’ll get ready together in our apart­ment and she’ll be on the toi­let while I’m in the shower. We’ve been friends since we were 13. We’re from the same vil­lage. Where I live now is a flat we own together — we moved in together when I was 19 and then she moved to New York about three years later.” — Henry Holland

LVMH Financing Gareth Pugh

LVMH’s chair­man Bernard Arnault has con­firmed that they are financ­ing Gareth Pugh’s shows. Arnault was hush on the rumor of Pugh acquir­ing a job at Dior Homme. His only thoughts were that Pugh is “an inter­est­ing designer, and it’s good to sup­port him.” [Vogue]

Cheap Monday’s Alter Ego

This spring, Swedish label, Cheap Mon­day is releas­ing a new line for the United States. The new line is named WKND and bares dark roots. Work­ing with pho­tographs of typhoons, designer Peter Jans­son used prints to stim­u­late the effects of destruction.

The line will launch at the new Los Ange­les con­cept store named Choose Chi­na­town. In addi­tion to WKND, the store will also carry Cheap Monday’s other lines, Kostym and L.L. Vin­tage. “The store’s con­cept embod­ies the notion of choice in fash­ion and in com­merce to adapt to eco­nomic changes as well as cul­tural shifts, and to be nim­ble enough to nav­i­gate uncer­tain times.” The store will change its theme every two seasons.

Choose Chi­na­town opens Fri­day, Feb­ru­ary 13, 2009.
