Blake Hamster

Posted on April 26, 2007 Under Fashion

I’m loving the domestic disturbance, the designs, and the larger ideas that seem to define Munich, Germany based Blake Hamster’s first run of clothes. Although limited to 4 guys and 4 gals shirts, they’ve hit the ground running with an eco-friendly, socially responsible, creative, and passionate line. The shirts were sewn in Italy – at the same place as Escada, Chanel, and Etro – with soft organic cotton and seacell yarn. Blake Hamster seems to have the right ingredients to make their label work– and despite their high price point (100-150 Euros for a shirt), I’m sensing quality here and I see this brand surviving the initial hurdles. You should know that if you like any of their stuff, you should buy it a.s.a.p.– each style is limited to about 50 pieces this first time around.
