Lesportsac S Spring 2010

Before I get to the big kahuna, the motherlode, the full spring preview of the LeSportsac Spring 2010 Classic collection, I’m finishing off the upcoming specialty collections, S and Platinum.

Lesportsac S Spring 2010

The S collection is made up of basic LeSportsac bags; their best selling styles, but upgraded with leather trims and straps, stronger hardwear, and produced in more muted upscale tones. Prices, to be expected are higher, topping off at $190. Springs color palatte is a snakeskin print, khaki, and basic black on black.

Lesportsac Platinum Spring 2010

The Platinum collection, also made up of classic LeSportsac styles, was previously just produced for Holiday delivery and only available in LeSportsac stores and online.  Starting this Spring. the collection is going to be produced every 6 months, and will be available worldwide. The Platinum collection is a slick and shiny metallic look, more fashion forward, and uses more technical fabrics like coated nylon ripstop.

Women Making History

Erin Magee

Prolific females fill a void when deemed necessary and a revolutionary movement is born. Enter breakout clothing designer Erin Magee, a New York City transplant who left Toronto, Canada at 18 to do just that with the creation of her feminine streetwear label, MadeMe.

Combining an array of edgy garments with the iconic sass of Madonna, Erin serves the glam and gritty feminine set with a collection that is not limited to graphic tees, acid wash denims, hooded leather jackets and geometric leggings. The streetwear aficionado earned her designing credentials while at Umbro, heading up special collaborations with Kim Jones and Supreme.

Her eye for quality and innovation led to the current position she holds as Production Manager for Supreme, a brand focused on epitomizing the skate culture of downtown NYC. In 2007, Erin broke the mold to satisfy women looking for street-inspired garments with a feminine touch by forming the MadeMe label.

Metro Pop

In 2009, the MadeMe label is stocked in over 35 stores throughout the world including cities like New York, Paris, Amsterdam, Sydney and Los Angeles. Erin has shown her collections at Las Vegas’ Magic Tradeshow, Barcelona’s  Bread & Butter Tradeshow and “Ladies First”, an independent tradeshow in Tokyo, Japan.

With four collections in tow, features in magazines such as Complex, Missbehave, GIANT, New York Post and NYLON, and attention garnered from female recording artists like Alicia Keys, there’s no need to scour the Internet and fashion stores for a reputable brand that embraces sexiness and edge; Erin Magee has the answer.

If you’re not already familiar with Erin, you’re sleeping! But don’t worry we got you! More after the jump!
