The past four years of INK has been, to say the least, irreplaceable. I

can’t begin to list the amount of people to whom I owe thanks,

the support INK received was overwhelming. This being said, I

am incredibly saddened, excited, and without a doubt satisfied

to announce the that we will be dissolving INK Magazine, INK

Homme, and all of our branches & divisions across the globe.

INK was more than I had ever planned, it grew from a small

one-man-show into an international collaboration of artists.

With our staff members time at INK ending I am excited to see

where this will lead us! So many opportunities are out there,

and INK has given us a fantastic experience...I don’t regret

any of the time spent working at INK. We hope you enjoy this

Autumn issue, and we encourage you to look out for INK’s last

issue..coming in the Winter!

Keep Creating,

John Troxel is the Editor in Chief of INK Magazine

For starters, let’s talk history. Where are you from?

I was born in Yorkshire, lived in America for a bit, but grew up mostly

in Scotland. I now live in London. My mother is German and my father

is Irish/Greek though, so technically I’m not really British at all...

When was Wolf Gang “born”?

I was studying in London and had almost completed my degree when

I suddenly freaked out about the path my life was about to take, so I

dropped out and focussed really hard on song writing . This was in the

summer of 2009. The songs and ideas that I had in that period formed

the bulk of material that’s on the album now.

Tell us a bit about “WOLF GANG” // the story behind the name...:

I wanted to give the project a name rather than use my own, it was

actually my sister who came up with the idea of Wolf Gang. I wanted

something that sounded plural to corresponded with the sound of the

music. Something bombastic and memorable. I’ve always wanted to

own a wolf one day, and am a fan of Mozart as well, so it all fitted

pretty well...

What was your first live show like?

The first gig I ever had was in my friend’s living room in a flat in

Dean Street, Soho. We crowded it with about forty people, it felt really

exciting! I was nervous before, but I kind of knew I had to get on with

it if I wanted to potentially try and do music seriously. As soon as we

started playing, I felt totally at ease, it was quite a surprise for me. We

even did an encore.

Looking back on your early tracks, what do you think has

changed about your music style?

When I first wrote music with lyrics they were just silly and humorous

songs, I was just messing around with friends. I guess now I’ve sort of

grown out of that...

What has stayed consistent?

I’ve always been interested in layering up sounds and using reverbs to

create wide sort of horizons with the music. My parents bought me a

four tracker when I was fourteen, and I would record four tracks, then

four more on top of that, then another four...I guess I’ve always had an

appetite for large sounds.

Describe your music in 3 words...go!

Energetic, summery, melodic.

What’s next for Wolf Gang!?

Lots of festivals, lots of touring, and trying to write the next album in

between!

Wolf Gang! Thanks so much for taking some time to talk to INK!

IN THE BAG

When did you start your blog?

I started this blog in October 2008 or 2009… geez I can’t remember.

Why did you start your blog?

I was working at Chictopia at the time. After I left, I wanted to start

fresh.

Tell us about the name of your blog Lulu and your Mom, is

there a story behind that?

Yeah, but it’s boring. I won’t tell it.

When you post, do you have a target audience in mind?

I only post what I find exceptional.

Who are some of your favorite designers?

Phoebe Philo for Céline, Susien and Nic for Lover, Junya Watanabe,

and I really like what my friends at Levi’s and The Gap have been up

to these days. I’m sort of obsessed with denim.

What do you think is most rewarding about the fashion

industry//community?

I think the best part about fashion is that it’s a very passion driven

industry. There’s room for all sorts of personalities to thrive.

Do you read other fashion blogs? If so, who!?

I enjoy jjjjound: jjjjound.com, Nowness: nowness.com, and the Self

Service blog: selfservicemagazine.com

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

In Spring 2012, I’m releasing a fashion book I co-authored for

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. After that, I have a series of fiction

I’ve been dying to get out. I see myself as a modern day story teller;

whether it’s fashion or just life.

Where do you draw the most inspiration from?

Living in California. Teenagers. Minimalists. Skaters. You know…

the youth.

LULU AND YOUR MOMInterviewed By John Troxel // Photograph via LULU AND YOUR MOM

On a typical day, season 8 Project Runway winner Gretchen

Jones sips cappuccino, tumbles for one hour too many, sifts through

thrift shops, noshes on an almond croissant, reads a classic American

novel, and spends countless hours in her studio perfecting her mood

boards. For a western girl fresh on the scene, she sure is business savvy.

Using what she thinks are the two most important aspects of fashion

design –an editing eye and a focused back story—Jones has catapulted

her aesthetic that she describes as a “bohemian interpretation of

American sportswear and 70’s romanticism,” into a streamlined and

sweetly chic clothing and jewelry line.

Jones is a self-proclaimed perfectionist. Starting by trending

with textiles and colors and then moving to mood boards, her design

process is extremely formulaic. She thoroughly thinks out the story to

each of her pieces and how they all fit under the umbrella of her ultimate

collection. She admits that her hardest challenge as a new designer is

learning to create a balance in her life –cutting off her studio time at

night to spend some time on herself.

She designs clothes for women just like herself. She believes

she represents what is happening in fashion right now and the modern

woman who literally wears her heart on her sleeve. “I’m a 29 year-

old single woman in the city,” Jones said. “I want to feel pretty, but

taken seriously. I want to feel unique, but not always with my peacock

feathers out.”

As early as the age of three, Jones refused to go to preschool

unless her cable-knit tights were perfect. “I feel like I am one of those

lucky people that was inherently meant to be doing what I am doing,”

she said. Her grandmother taught her to sew, but she never received

any formal training. Jones’ first original design was her first communion

dress, and she often got in trouble as a child for spending too much time

the night before school picking out an outfit.

Jones grew up in Colorado and attended the University of Colorado at

Boulder only to drop out for more hands on and technical experience.

She is mostly self-taught, but did, after quitting school, take one-on-one

sewing classes.

She started school studying architecture. “I was always

interested in design, it was just a matter of finding that medium,” Jones

said.

In 2008, Jones began her sustainably focused fashion line

Mothlove, which was sold exclusively in Portland her former home

city. She began thinking about Project Runway as her line was going

bankrupt. “When I think about it, [Mothlove] was a way for me to figure

out my point of view aesthetically and the ethos behind it,” Jones said.

“Nobody talks about it but the truth is fashion is really expensive either

as a consumer or as a designer.” It was nearly impossible for her to

maintain the line and stay financially afoot.

A couple of local Portland boutiques nominated Jones for

Project Runway. “I had been on their radar for quite some time,” Jones

said. “I was never interested in becoming a reality TV star.” Project

Runway, for Jones, was a strategic business plan. It was “something

that could help a girl from rural Colorado who didn’t have an in,” she

said. “When, I came to terms with that it gave me the strength to just

go for it and take the risk.”

For anyone who watched the season or its aftermath, it is

no secret that Jones was not a fan favorite. “I can’t say it wasn’t a little

bit heartbreaking, everyone just wants to be loved,” Jones said. “I won

and I stand behind my win. What’s been disappointing is not everyone

involved felt that way or supported me.”

While Jones was not pleased with some of the audience response and

couldn’t bear to watch herself on TV, she feels extremely grateful for the

opportunity to work with people like Nina Garcia and Michael Kors.

After the show Jones immediately moved to Brooklyn. She said, “I knew

I needed to hit the ground running and take advantage of small doors

opening for me… what has been really amazing are the reactions I have

been getting from the real fashion industry.”

As if winning Project Runway and launching her line wasn’t

enough, Jones has also started her own jewelry line. Jewelry, for Jones, is

a great way her customer can take one of her looks from day to night. It

also gives her “two different avenues to break into the industry,” Jones

said, “It’s a way for me to paint an even richer picture branding wise.”

She isn’t doing too poorly either –in a few weeks her jewelry will be sold

at stores like Steven Alan, Toby.com and a few Portland boutiques and

websites.

While she has trouble peeling herself away from her studio

as she slaves over the most preliminary sketch, Jones enjoys getting

away from the city and biking.

From Portland to Project Runway to bourgeoning success

what her only regrets? Not packing enough underwear for the show. “I

feel like I am getting to create on such a diverse level,” Jones said. “My

entire life has changed, I truly feel like I am living the dream I wanted to

live.”

Ever since the first time I laid eyes on Rachel Gilbert’s collection,

there was no turning back. Her gowns were so incredibly

detailed, tailored,and elegant it’s hard not to fall in love with

them. Claudia wore a Rachel Gilbert for the stunning Autumn

2011 cover, kicking off a love affair worth the time and wait:

ALL FUR ONE AND ONE FUR ALL

Animal love was a ubiquitous concept in the

early-year fal l shows that establ ished the coming seasons’

most prevalent trends, but not in an orthodox way. Luxe

brand designers resorted to a more sartorial take on their

re lationships with our fe l low furry fr iends by producing

quite the unexpected versions of furs, minks, pelts, and

other c losely associated fuzzy fabrics. Tersely speaking,

the international runways hosted the same old same old of

fur appl ications, such as r ichly texturized mohair jackets,

color- injected stoles that caused nostalgia for last season’s

Prada’s, and animal-printed coats. Perhaps not “same old

same old,” after al l . Not to downplay these practical appl i-

cations, the t imeless e legance of the fur form was surely not

in absence. The exquisite craftsmen of both the American

and European mainlands made sure to impress by present-

ing fashion-forward renderings of the word “fur”, al l while

staying true to the aesthetics of their perspective brands.

Others, however, decided to venture into unexplored terri-

tories and f ind novel ways of reinterpreting the c lassics. In

terms of the subject matter, fur was incorporated in ways

that have shocked even the overly zealous of industry in-

siders and style r isk takers. This fal l , the three- letter-word

fur is a mil l ion dol lar story.

From the get-go, the fur trend made its noticeable appear-

ance on the American runways, bringing an appeal of Eu-

ropean luxury to the hard-edged streets of New York City.

Sportswear connoisseur Michael Kors stunned, as always,

with a col lect ion of practical yet exquisite ly ref ined day-

wear and eveningwear, leaving no pleat unchecked and

almost every piece of outwear emblazoned with fur. An

oversized cordovan mink vest remains a c lear standout.

Paris-born Joseph Altuzarra certainly put his two-cents

in during the same week in the Big Apple, presenting a

s lew of tasteful eveningwear/daywear hybrids, no doubt

a result of his French upbringing, one of which featured

a fox-fur coat that exemplif ied Parisian chic. On the far

side of the Atlantic , Frida Giannini premiered her array of

neon-hued and color-blocked fur jackets, coats, and pelts

for Gucci ’s fal l col lect ion, dropping a hint that J i l Sander’s

and Prada’s presentations the season prior had left a color-

ful precedent worth fol lowing. The glamour of the 70’s and

its’ t imely muse Anjel ica Huston was an apparent inspira-

t ion. The romantic City of Lights, in its effervescent glory,

did not disappoint when it came to vibrant furs, with twin

chi ld-stars-turned-fashion-entrepreneurs Mary-Kate and

Ashley Olsen unleashing their intrinsic talent for luxurious

designs in their cal l ing-card-label The Row’s fal l l ineup.

Über-chic fox hats played darl ing accessories to the real

success story of the show- the Olsen’s take on the iconic

bubble jacket which, ideal ly, came out treated with fur and

a mesmerizing muted hue of baby blue.

It was not just the fanciful coats and everyday outerwear

that received a fur f ix for fal l , but the simple accessories

as wel l . Quite the astonishing twist, designers seemed to

have fe lt the need to experiment a bit with the popular

fabric , l ike the youthful Alexander Wang, seemingly the

f irst art ist in history to have designed a pair of covetable

fur- l ined sunglasses. The mere idea of fur shades might

init ial ly come across as a tacky, but Mr. Wang’s eye-candy

was everything but. Sleek, luxurious, and st i l l edgy enough

to be a recognizable Alexander Wang trademark. Footwear

was not ignored as even the highest of platforms received

the fur treatment, one of the most in demand being Reed

Krakoff ’s heeled fur sandals. Commanding attention in the

blogosphere and out, these wild beauties proved that the

possibi l i t ies for fur in fashion are practical ly l imit less.

Obvious opulence paying homage to French Haute Couture c irca 17th century

ruled the runways for Fal l . Gi lded accents sculpting easy chic adorned every-

thing from accessories to r ich prints and beyond. Juxtaposing simple si lhouettes

with intricate embel l ishments such as beading, lace detai l ing, and omnipresent

ornamentation, baroque inf luences blossomed.

Dark colors of r ich hunter green and ivy tones, e lectr ic blue, and lush violets

paired with bright canary yel lows continued the trend of color blocking as pres-

ent in Spring col lect ions, now incorporating an att itude of their own, appropri-

ate to the oncoming season.

Likewise shift ing away from the minimalism of the warmer months, dramatic

embroidery and elaborate embel l ishments al l appeared, most especial ly in an

innovative col lect ion by Jason Wu. Perfect ing c lassic pieces ready for the chi l l

of fal l and beyond Wu encapsulated the baroque era while meeting the modern

woman.

Inspired by a book of photography by Robert Pol idori , “Parcours Museologique

Revister,” a documentation of the restoration process of the Palaces of Versai l les,

Wu incorporated the e legance of the period ingeniously.

Drawing on detai ls, Wu featured 15 types of lace, fashioning the material into

both dramatic high col lars and subtle shapes as present on a simple hound’s-

tooth shift dress. Combining luxurious embroidery for e legant everyday ap-

parel , Wu chose e lements of the era to fuse with functional separates f lawlessly.

Sporty blazers, s l im coats, and smoking jackets al l adorned with detai led ap-

pl iqué exhibited the impeccable tai loring for which Wu is known while exuding

an effort less aura as wel l .

While heavy coats and winter freeze may be miles away, the turn towards the

imperial glamour of the baroque age seems here to stay.

the MAVEN POST

Marie Hamm knows what she wants. Pouring over dozens of samples for the shoot, each item is delicately

and uncannily scrutinized with reference to implication and influence.

“I’m not sure about this sweater”, she says as she studies herself in a knit adorned with an over-abundance of

arm fringe. “Turtlenecks-- let’s shoot this instead,” she says, holding up a stark, taut black version, which ends

up meshing perfectly with a quirky tartan vest.

LA based entrepreneur-blogger Marie Hamm of The Maven Post boasts of an intrepid and inimitable style full

of solid core pieces contrasted with delicate details. The result is a choosy look that is the perfect mix between

LA and NY, the high-street and the low, and even day-to-night.

Although Marie’s online character tends to favor flowing fabrics, lighter colors, and softer features, she relates

her personal style as being more dark, contrasted, and modern. Every so often, aspects of these looks make it

to onto her blog, creating a highly versatile and intriguing mix.

“I own everything I shoot,” she says, “but a lot of times I change the way I wear things to reach a wider

audience.”

As Marie navigates her business ventures in a decided and determined fashion, she never fears to experiment

with different aspects of her personality and personal style. “Honestly—I have fun doing all of it”, she says,

“To be experimental and inspired is a beautiful thing.”

How did you decide to start your blog, The Maven-

post? What does the blog name stand for?

I started blogging as a way to make things last forever.   I guess

you can cal l i t more of a modern day scrap book.   I chose the name

The Maven Post because I wanted something I could grow with. 

I hope that when the day comes that I am too old to take photos

of myself, The Maven Post can grow past a style blog and into

something bigger.

  How do you choose each look for your blog? What are your

favorite places to shop, and do you ever bargain hunt?

My mood is a huge factor in what I am wearing, and you can see

it when you visit my blog.   I l ike to change things up and am

inspired by many trends, styles, and people.   My favorite places

to shop are Barneys, Opening Ceremony, and Shareen Vintage.   I

bargain hunt onl ine on sites l ike Gi lt and the Outnet.

U P C O M I N G S E A S O N .

Where did you attend school? What was that experience like?

I went to the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in

downtown Los Angeles.   I studied Merchandise Marketing there. 

My experience was pretty layed back.   I am married and have a

home to keep up and a l i tt le dog. I l ive a pretty normal l i fe .

Has the success of your blog led to any new opportunities?

Absolutely.   I am currently working with a few different compa-

nies on marketing which is what I went to school for.   I also get a

chance to do lookbooks which is fun as wel l as meet a lot of cool

and interesting people.

Many bloggers are sent gifts in exchange for product en-

dorsement. What are some of the more interesting pieces you

have received? Would you endorse any product?

I get sent some of the most random things sometimes, but I real ly

am honored that people are moved enough by my blog that they

wish to include me in their world.   Some cool things I have got-

ten so far include vintage pieces, shoes, designer dresses; always

items relating to fashion or style.   Sometimes it is hard to have

to pol ite ly decl ine, but I think that is better than putting people

through the trouble of sending it to begin with. I endorse every-

thing that makes it on to my page.   I am very passionate about

each individual piece.

What is a normal day like for you?

Work. Always working on something and everything. 

What inspires you to create your one-of-a-kind looks?

I am very inspired by people l ike me--I mean other bloggers when I

say this.   Real people, real looks, real personality.   I t is hard to not

become secret fans of people when you know their story is true.

What are your favorite looks for F/W 2011?

Fal l is my favorite season for fashion.   Dark hues, heavy fabrics,

fur!   I am super in to the ox-blood red and the saffron yel lows that

are in.   I am also dreaming of a coyote fur jacket. 

What is currently on your music playlist?

1) Roads, Port ishead

2) One Love, Massive Attack

3) Lost Cause, Beck

4) Creator, Santigold

5) I Wished on the Moon, Coleman Hawkins

6) Deadliest Weapon, Nik Frost

 What advice could you give to other aspiring bloggers?

Don’t take anything too seriously.   As long as you are having a

good t ime and enjoying fashion, people wil l see that and gravitate

to your energy.  Oh, and c lean your c loset out re l igiously. . . things

have a way of pi l ing up very fast when your shooting al l the t ime.

The past four years of INK has been, to say the least, irreplaceable. I

can’t begin to list the amount of people to whom I owe thanks,

the support INK received was overwhelming. This being said, I

am incredibly saddened, excited, and without a doubt satisfied

to announce the that we will be dissolving INK Magazine, INK

Homme, and all of our branches & divisions across the globe.

INK was more than I had ever planned, it grew from a small

one-man-show into an international collaboration of artists.

With our staff members time at INK ending I am excited to see

where this will lead us! So many opportunities are out there,

and INK has given us a fantastic experience...I don’t regret

any of the time spent working at INK. We hope you enjoy this

Autumn issue, and we encourage you to look out for INK’s last

issue..coming in the Winter!

Keep Creating,

FROM THE EDITORDEAR READERS,
