Malin Landeus

2009-09-03T20:00:00.001-04:00

Malin Landeus, The renowned vintage queen, let Secta explore her Williamsburg archive and thrift store for the day,leaving us wanting to raid every studio 54 regulars closet.

Malin started her interest in vintage when she bought used clothing as a means of saving money, then after a stint working for an organic childrens clothing company, she made a vow to never again buy anything new unless she absolutely had to. After a quick monetary struggle, she started selling off her collection,which led to her opening up a store two years ago and then creating a vintage archive six months ago.

POLAROID A DAY

2009-08-14T17:21:00.003-04:00

A man, Jamie Livingston, took a photo every day for 18 years, until his death in 1997. Incredible, and a testament to the polaroid format (RIP, little guy. Let's hope your factory gets up and running again soon!) You can see him on his death bed in the last polaroid put up-- haunting stuff. http://photooftheday.hughcrawford.com/

IPSO FACTO

2009-08-14T16:26:00.005-04:00

Ipso Facto is a UK-based band made up by Rosalie Cummings (lead singer and guitarist), Victoria Smith (drums) and Samantha Valentine (bass). Formed in 2007, their songs, sombre and sobering in its oft-pulsating beat, carry a real weight to them, the products of a rather early-90's prog-rock/goth-inflected aesthetic, given distinction in the strong, no-nonsense female vocals. But Ipso Facto is less prog than Portishead, more adventurous than that extremely limited Joy Division-esque sound. There are always limitations that come with the scene associated with a band-- did someone ever tell Paul Banks, "No, you can't just be Ian Curtis today and Robert Smith tomorrow?" No? Besides the convenience of the label, it is almost as if a restriction to any other sound--Ipso Facto manages to sit in these walls peacefully enough, but give themselves more than enough room to wiggle-- or dance.

Perhaps it's helpful to see how Ipso Facto sees itself situated in the music genrified-gentrified world by who they hang out with: in 2008, they went on the road supporting The Last Shadow Puppets, Alex Turner's and Miles' Kane's pet project. Decidedly more noir and darker than the Puppets' military marches; at the same time, more given to lighten up and dance than their stiff male counterparts. No matter; whatever they do, these ladies aren't messing around.

Check out Ipso Facto's "You Don't Own Me" on their Myspace. Extra fun fact: Sandra Chi, collaborator on Secta's Autumn/Winter 09 collection, also did artwork for Ipso Facto. Her blog is here. Spread the love.

Christophe Decamin for Balmain

2009-07-22T14:13:00.002-04:00

Label Overview

When French couturier Pierre Balmain founded his house in 1945, he, Christian Dior, and Cristobal Balenciaga were the design giants responsible for reenergizing lavish couture dressing after World War II. Balmain’s elegant, super-feminine looks were favorites among European royalty and Hollywood fashion plates like Marlene Dietrich, Katharine Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot, and Sophia Loren. Since Balmain’s death in 1982, the glory days have dwindled. His assistant, Erik Mortensen, took over until 1990, and two years later, Oscar de la Renta joined the house. De la Renta designed Balmain couture from 1993 to 2002, and Laurent Mercier took over in 2003. But the house soon fell into financial hard times and was forced to file for bankruptcy. Investors revived Balmain in 2005, and brought on designer Christophe Decarnin, fresh from a decade's work at Paco Rabanne. And for a label that was once known for ultraelegant evening attire with a draping and pleating focus, Decarnin's appointment took it toward tough-chic, thigh-grazing, body-skimming looks—a sensibility that embraces the quintessential trendsetting French party-girl. Owner Alain Hivelin claims that sales have doubled since Decarnin's appointment, projecting 2009 to amass $28 million in revenue (the clothes are notoriously expensive—a sparkly tee is $3,000, dresses are $12,000 to $22,000, and jackets are $5,000). Expansions are also in the works, adding staff, a shoe line with Giuseppe Zanotti, and the label's first men's collection in Paris in January 2009. [nymag.com]

NEW MUSIC FRIDAY>> Hecuba Hecuba

2009-06-19T16:38:00.000-04:00

Hecuba "Suffering" [Official Video] HD from Hecuba on Vimeo.from last.fm: HECUBA is Isabelle Albuquerque and Jon Beasley from Los Angeles. [...] Dancers, Japanese Koto harp, computers, beat machines, trombones and soul singers have all played a part in the sound. One never knows what to expect from Hecuba.

"Suffering" is bouncy sad doo-wop for depressed young folks nostalgic for the maltshake-&-drive-thru 50's culture they never had. The band is most commonly labelled as freak-folk, but the steady melodic drone-pop can be harkened more to the likes of New Order than anything Devendra Banhart.
