Canada Goose Online Retail Europe

Canada Goose, the world’s leading maker of Arctic luxury outerwear, is venturing into new territories this season with the introduction of online retail in two of its key European markets.  From today, fans of the brand in France and the UK will be able to shop the collections directly through the canadagoose.com site.

The launch marks Canada Goose’s first direct to consumer channel in Europe and comes in direct response to the overwhelming demand for its iconic parkas, jackets and shells in France and the UK. The brand, which has enjoyed explosive growth of over 2000% the last decade, counts the two markets as its largest and fastest growing in Europe.

The digital European flagship brings the brand closer to some of its most loyal consumers and gives them a luxury shopping experience which reflects the spirit of Canada Goose. As well as offering exclusive styles, limited-edition collaborations and free standard shipping, the site uses features such as fit analytics to help shoppers find the perfect outerwear piece to suit their shape and style. 

The new Canada Goose Autumn/Winter 2016 collection, which brings a distinctive and covetable aesthetic to the brand’s functional heritage, is available to purchase online for the launch. The collection features includes the re-design of an award-winning classic – HyBridge 2.0 - as well as new innovative styles such as the Savona Jacket, which is an urban update to the classic bomber in a sleek feminine silhouette, and the Woolford Coat, a utilitarian influenced bomber length style.

The introduction of online retail in Europe follows its launch in Canada in 2015 and comes just ahead of another important milestone for the almost sixty year old Canadian company. Later this year, as part of its plans to drive continued global growth, Canada Goose is opening two standalone flagship stores in Toronto and New York.

Sherpa Trucker Jackets in Style

Are sherpa trucker jackets currently in style?  Well, we think that the answer is, "probably".  They are back for the fall/winter.

The denim trucker jacket is one example of the use of Sherpa with outerwear.  But the denim look is not the only option.

What's better than a Sherpa lining for warmth or to add a little extra style to the collar?  If you are interested in purchasing a women's Sherpa trucker jacket, we suggest you visit the Levi's website.  They have new washes, finishes and styles available.

By the way, we are not talking about the Sherpa people who are an ethnic group in eastern Nepal.  Sherpa material is a soft, thick polyester fabric made to resemble sheepskin (it can also be a cotton/poly blended fabric). The material feels like suede on one side and soft, fleecy wool on the other.

The Trucker Jacket is typically thought of as a classic Levi's style denim jacket. The Sherpa Trucker jacket is the classic Levi's style jacket which also has Sherpa fabric.

HOT ME$$ by Designer Matt Sarafa

Project Runway Designer Debuts Edgy New Line

Ready to set the fashion world on fire with his new clothing line HOT ME$$ out Wednesday, September 14TH, 2016, fierce designer Matt Sarafa has an aesthetic all his own and is a rising talent to keep an eye on. Already winning audiences over as fan favorite as the "Project Runway Juniors" standout star, the remarkably talented young designer proved he has what it takes to survive under the strenuous pressure of the fashion industry. Mentored by Emmy Award winner Tim Gunn, Matt is ready to release his unisex clothing line to people around the world this fall.
 Inspired by the "Unconventional Challenge" on Project Runway Juniors, Matt took his knowledge of fashion along with his avant garde style to create his first clothing line HOTT ME$$. This trendy line will include a variety of shirts, an amazing bomber jacket and a few accessories including a snapback hat and backpack. Created for women and men of all ages, Matt's line features an edgy, urban and fun style that is not afraid to push boundaries or take risks. The budget friendly line will also be available for both United States buyers, as well as his growing international audiences.

Growing up in Manhattan Beach, California Sarafa always had an artistic side, loving to draw and paint as a child. After binge watching an entire season of "Project Runway" with his mother at the age of 7, he knew fashion was his true calling. He then learned how to hand sew from his grandmother and eventually began taking classes to perfect his technique. Growing up in the age of YouTube, Matt started his own channel which features makeup tutorials and fashion tips and advice, which is watched by thousands of budding fashionistas looking for a little help and inspiration. This caught the attention of producers for "Project Runway: Threads," which aired in 2014. A fan favorite on that show, Sarafa was a no-brainer choice for producers when the networks newest show "Project Runway Juniors" aired in October of 2015.

When Matt isn't busy launching his new clothing line, building his fashion empire, or spending time studying as a new freshmen at UCLA, Matt loves giving back working with charities such as Life World, Children's Hospital LA and the Pink Lotus Foundation.
