WE ARE HANDSOME Handmade Swimwear

Nave is an interesting swimwear collection created collaboratively by Oscar & Elvis Swimwear and We Are Handsome. Their ambitious idea was to fuse art, fashion and swimwear - and the result looks really good...

This limited edition collection is fun, cool and different. The swimsuits are handmade, using lycra as a base and printing the material with interesting illustrations and photos, many of which come in an eighties style.

The prints were created using high-density dyes and sublimation techniques. We Are Handsome worked individually on each print to make each piece unique. Take a look at the photos - both the concept and the campaign are fascinating.

STUDDED Style

Stud:
A small ornamental button mounted on a short post for insertion through an eyelet, as on a dress shirt.

You've probably noticed that studs have become an iconic detail this season, they're all over bags, shoes, blazers, trousers... The rock-style detail is everywhere this season, though really it's a timeless classic.

From Marc Jacobs and Chloe to Karl Lagerfeld, Balmain and Giuseppe Zanotti, everyone is falling for studs. Some designers prefer a more chic version, and others go for a coarser style.

Today we're showing you some essential pieces so that you can sport a studded look this season - everything from Balmain and Miu Miu to Alexander McQueen...
