She had the kind of accent, so perfectly pitched, it signaled a lifetime of entitlement.

"I've gone from plain to deranged."

"You? Really? I would never figure you of all people to be an Undercover kind of guy," said the erstwhile young men's fashion editor as we powered thru the very good sushi at the suitably obscure restaurant .

TI's great discovery during that Tokyo odyssey was the beautifully layered offerings of indie label Digawell.

All the best stylists do it , so why not TI? ...

Rubchinsky's first collection, "Evil Empire" was made for and dedicated to youth, teenagers and children of the 90's

If I'm to buy any more menswear (sigh), I'm going to buy into a label that has a sincere discourse with the contemporary. Cause clothes should always be of their moment, no?

As Copenhagen Fashion Week SS 13 cycles up today for its 6 day spin, TI's spotlight swings towards 2pm, The Copenhagen based management company founded in 1999 by Peter Damgaard and Michelle Jensen. On my visit earlier this summer I had wound my way to the courtyard offices of 2pm and found it an oasis of thoughtfulness crossed with great taste. During an al fresco lunch with Peter and his team of managers I was struck by the entirely holistic bent of 2pm's enterprise. There was something clean and fresh and modern in the merger of commerce and conscience that struck me as being so timely as to signal a future way of managing the new ideas emerging around fashion itself. After 10 years of being completely entrenched in the New York City way of model management, I was really moved by the display of critical intelligence welling up on a mother agent level. The true story, as Peter communicated , was not centralized, but thoroughly globalized and as such I followed up a few weeks later with the lingering questions our initial meeting triggered. This is what Mr Damgaard had to say.
