“Andy Warhol would have loved Lissy Trullie: Not only does she boast deadly downtown looks — striking, model thin and with a penchant for bowler hats — she’s got the attitude and serious songwriting chops to match. Her dangerously cool tunes, which mash up dancey new wave, ’60’s girl-group sounds and the softer side of the Velvet Underground, hit upon the core aloofness that typifies most great New York rock. Simply put, Trullie’s magnetism is the kind that can’t be learned.” -TIME OUT NEW YORK

Global trend report 2009 London version

GIRLS one of the ladies’ looks swarming over London at the moment is sort of “punk meets grunge” you can expect huge oversize plaid shirts and vests over small crop tops and shorts,ripped jeans, shredded or mesh tank tops, tights with too many questionable holes, and endless denim vests and jackets in every wash imaginable. This girl would also own a few pairs of Doc Martens (black patent leather or floral), stripper heels, and maybe a pair of creepers. with ripped fishnets and Doc Martens boots that make her legs look like a Giacometti sculpture. remember about four years ago when you thought you would never again have to put up with people intentionally ripping their jeans at the knees like footballers used to do? well, here it is again. still, this lot know how to kick the shit out of a party.

BOYS The London male’s fashion taste is all over the place, but when i zero in on a few staples that are as consistent today as they have been in years past—for example long, greasy hair and denim and WASPish White-Pant-Wearing wannabe —and meld them together, an image of one of our current styles begins to take shape: "Christlike Prep School Figure" you see him all haggard and unwashed, stringy hair and thick, patchy beard, and he appears to be, from the neck up, your garden-variety hippie. but this character is definitely no "flower child" You will never catch the Christlike Prep wearing a hemp poncho or sporting sandals. his wardrobe invariably consists of Double RL and APC—buttoned-down oxfords, sleeves rolled up, and white Sperry loafers sans socks. he is on the surface at least, fresh and clean, even if he hasn’t changed boxers in two and a half weeks xp
