Another tailoring doc, this time on Ozwald Boateng and his ideas on style and his slightly off-key approach to tailoring. It's not as interesting as the above Savile Row doc, but the ending with Giorgio Armani is quite touching and the Burial soundtrack is pretty cool.

This is a really good doc on modern day Savile Row tailors. It features various houses such as Norton & Sons and Dege & Skinner and the politics surrounding the arrival of Abercrombie and Fitch to the street.

Really good doc that was on BBC Four about the history of design. It's much more comprehensive than Objectified, and features everything from Le Corbusier to Dieter Rams.

I've posted the first part of each episode:

I live next to squatters in London. I'd like them if it wasn't for the all night parties on weekdays. Or having to watch them passed out lying on the ground in the garden on Saturday mornings. Or the fact they don't pay tax or contribute in any way to their community.

They are, basically, a bunch of smelly cunts. I hope squatting is banned everywhere.

Has anyone tried the jean jacket on? I was tempted by the one on the Ervell online store which looks really nice and structured, but the striped one on the Opening Ceremony's site looks so different in fit and much less flattering.

I sent a PM earlier - hopefully I was quick enough. I can pay immediately.

I just posted a link to the men's non-no scans, unless you mean something else.

I think onemancult summed it up. I don't see nu-rave as anything to do with indie rock - it's just strange how The Klaxons are considered pioneers of the scene (I'm pretty sure there is no link between them and early nineties rave culture?). The clubs I associate with this scene are like Trailer Trash and Antisocial which seem to play harder dancefloor music - techno and electro (although probably not good techno and electro). It seems like quite a gay scene too.

I don't frequent these clubs though, so maybe I'm completely wrong. It doesn't appeal to me and I think Cassette Playa is pretty awful.

Really into this.

Much better than Julius.
