oki-ni news November 10

oki-ni presents Harris Elliott
The latest shoot in our regular STYLED feature was been produced in collaboration with Harris Elliott, who has worked with the most celebrated names and brands in the industry, such as Mark Ronson, Nike and GQ. Together, we created a series of portraits, inspired by the work of Malick Sidibe and Seydou Keita, showing the best of this season’s tailoring, shot in black and white, allowing for a focus on the sharp silhouettes. We’re really pleased with it.

Silent by Damir Doma
The luxury basics line curated by Damir Doma and his team, SILENT, is understated, natural and effortless. We’ve got a selection of this season’s best products live now, including some newly arrived footwear styles (and if you like them, it’s worth checking the bags out too).

Fred Perry / Raf Simons
Our Raf Simons for Fred Perry Fall 10 collection is another collection we’re really excited by. Raf Simons’s take on Fred Perry is now an integral part of the Fred Perry range, and his sleek modernist take on classic pieces consistently impresses. For Fall 10, the two labels solidify their partnership with a dually branded logo patch and a solid line up of both colourful and toned down knit wear. We also have a woollen blazer jacket and trouser with slim fit silhouetted shirts, finished with mother of pearl buttons.

oki-ni presents BOTTIN ‘DISCOCRACY’
For the latest in our Mix series, Italo-disco producer Bottin created a mix that ‘went all over the place’, and we love it. The artwork was created by artist Aske, known for being the Co-Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Russian graffiti magazine CODE RED.

Evisu x Common Projects
The much anticipated collaboration between Evisu and footwear brand Common Projects has just come in, and the response has been great. Maintaining Common Projects’ ethos of simple construction and classic silhouettes, using the high quality materials and finish you’d expect from both brands. Each shoe is finished with the signature Common Projects propriety stamp, but with added Japanese KATA-KANA text meaning ‘Evisu’.
