MARDOU&DEAN + CALA&JADE

Presents: -The Denim Bag Journey-

'In 2010 the girls Cala and Jade asked Mardou and Dean to join them travelling. The destination was Oslo. In their travel kits they had old fashioned denim and the finest leathers. On their way to Oslo they met Italian craftsmen, Norwegian salesmen and picked up inspiration and help from other creatives. The result of the journey is the perfect travel companion; a handcrafted bag of denim and leather. Each bag is unique because of its natural materials and customized details. They hope that ‘The Denim Bag Journey’ doesn’t end here but will continue with you.'

-The Denim Bag Journey- is a limited edition denim and leather bag collection for Autumn/Winter 2011 which we have made in collaboration with Norwegian leather bag label Cala&Jade. A selection of the bags are shown below featured by 6 creatives from Oslo, photographed by Patrick Katzman.

DANCING in the DARK

Inspired by Capoeira and Japanese dojos we were eager to show that stretch and flexibility is no longer reserved for female denim wearers. To the contrary of what most people believe, skinny jeans can provide just as much, if not even more, freedom of movement than your typical old school baggy jeans. In True Mardou&Dean fashion we are hoping that the viewer is left with a feeling of “wish-I-were-there”. Movie maker’s Daniel McStay and Kavar Singh from McSINGH FILM has directed and produced “Dancing in the Dark”, Mardou&Dean´s second commercial short film, as well as the previous “The Mardou&Dean’s”

'Paired Up'

Saturday was the big day we have been waiting for. For weeks we have worked on the project 'Paired Up'. It is an exhibition featuring our new campaign pictures shot by Oda Berby, a second photoshoot portraiting 46 people in pairs wearing Mardou&Dean jeans, our new s/s 2010 collection and last but not least; celebrating the collaboration with Kaare Lund Agenturer. The evening was held in one of Kaare Lunds boutiques in Oslo, Koma, which turned 5 years.

If you live in Oslo you can go and see selected photos from the two photoshoots, in real size, at Koma the next months.

More pictures from the evening to come.
