Mid-February, the one and only screening of the visuals by Envelop member Julia Pott for Bat for Lashes took place. Her animation screened at Bexhill's famous De laWarr Pavillion as a special one off set by Natasha who covered songs by the Cure, Radiohead, Sonic Youth and Nina Simone with a live string quartet. The animation comprised of stop motion photographs with intergrated animation.
Awesome? Awesome.

Fred Perry and Liberty Of London have teamed up for a Blank Canvas series. Love how they match the blue and red tennis stripes with the livingroom-ish flower pattern. It's like Nintendo Wii Tennis translated to a shirt.
In stores April '10.

Great leggings by c.neeon from Berlin. Love the stained glass feel of it, caused by the bold black outlines and the saturated tones. For more graphic leggings, be sure to check their SS10 marble_dust collection here.
Legs not included.

Last month, Portland based The Decemberists announced the official release of Here Come the Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized, a collaboration between the band and four filmmakers, Guilherme Marcondes, Envelop member Julia Pott, Peter Sluszka and Santa Maria - each of whom have created an animation to accompany a section of the music.
The DVD is available on Itunes (US) or the band's webshop. Moreover, they used Julia's illustration for the cover image. How sweet!
Take a look at the trailer, we think it's pretty impressive. You'll recognize Julia's signature waves, bears and mountain creatures, to be found on her Envelop textile basics as well.

Il corteo, musicato dai Murder e da His Clancyness, partirà il 22 gennaio 2010 alle ore 18:30 da via Celentano 39 a Bari e finirà chissà quando e chissà dove.
