Knowledge Cotton Apparel to Secret Society!

Secret Society is proud to present Natalia Brilli and here leather accessories line:

"Born in Liege, Belgium, Natalia Brilli studied at the prestigious Cambre school in Brussels. Straddling the worlds of theatre and fashion, she designed sets and costumes whilst simultaneously collaborating with established fashion designers until, after joining Paris' IFM in 2003, she decided to devote all her energy to her life's passion: fashion accessories.

In 2004 she joined Rochas where she still works to this date. That same year she launched her own label, which was snapped up by Maria Luisa, Browns and Barneys. These days she is stocked in over 30 countries worldwide.

Appropriating the emblematic codes of classic jewellery, Natalia's pieces have an ethereal presence, monochromatic yet weightless, their essence freed from unnecessary embellishment. Her inspiration follows the natural rhythm of the seasons without ever forsaking her signature "pearls", and her colour range, limited in the beginning to black, green and purple, now includes pastel tones with natural or metallic finishes."

Look at for the fall delivery of Natalia Brilli at Secret Society, within the next few weeks.

Enjoy the weekend!

Dear friends (and family),

After a short summer vacation, Secret Society is now back on track, and we are looking forward to an intriguing season, with really strong collections from our brands. In addition to our current brands, we have decided to try out a few new ones. Our long time favourite Helmut Lang will now be sold at Secret Society, alongside our Norwegian favourites Arne & Carlos (watch out for these guys in the coming years). From LA we have found a great new denim brand for the birds, called Current / Elliot, in addition to up & coming ready-to-wear starlet Vince. Finally, we will be carrying a great accessories line from Belgium born Natalia Brilli. More detailed information on our new lines, will be presented in the coming days.

Hope to see all of you very soon!

'My Own Private Portland'

Number (N)ine FW08

Portland's Ace Hotel forms the latest inspiration for Japanese brand Number (N)ine's 2008 Fall collection. In a movement made popular by the likes of Kurt Cobain through the Northwestern corridor, this collection designed by Takahiro Miyashita possess a distinct grunge tone.

The runway show titled "My Own Private Portland" commenced with a voicemail message and made-in Portland Pendleton wool blankets for guests. The blankets emblazoned with imagery of the iconic and historical significant Thompson elk statute represent a throw back to America's past as well as a good showing of direction for this collection.

For Miyashita, the inclusion of Ace Hotel in his inspiration signified his desire to shed light on Portland in a real and authentic manner, one that showcases the luxurious, albeit in an irregular manner which remembers the past. The blankets will be available for sale through Number (N)ine's Manhattan location as well as a soon to be opened Ace outpost in New York.

The pictures above shows some of our favourite pieces from the collection.
