Classic James Lebon production from 1991 with all the usual suspects including Alex ‘Baby’ Turnbull (of Ronin Records and 23Skidoo fame) and Hiroshi Fujiwara (Major Force Records and Fragment Design).

I like: Chicken Cottage t-shirt
This subversion of the classic Chanel crossed-c logo by associating it with Chicken Cottage, a familar brand on the high street of neighbourhoods in south and east London.
It reminded me of the t-shirts sported at raves that subverted brands, but for the dubstep generation.

I like: Canon at London Fashion Week
Canon did some nice activities at London Fashion week to highlight their brand and talk about the EOS M – which is their answer to the mirrorless cameras with interchangable lenses built around the micro four thirds standard.
The micro four thirds standard blurs the product differentiation between point-and-shoot cameras and entry-level digital SLR cameras.
Combining fashion bloggers with the passion of photography was a smart move; a nice PR campaign which I imagine involved a lot of work to achieve the high production values of the content.
