Well personally I've thought about the thing and it doesn't make me so confident about what to think. Starting from Eric Clapton, that designed some clothes in the 90s, and now looking to all these pop stars that are not only designing some peaces of clothes, like bags or some t-shirts, but are creating entire collenctions, we are now full filled with the latest "Gwen Stefani" clothes, or the creations of Jennifer Lopez. I think that musicians are sometimes too much managers and think too much to the money aspects of their carreers. I have to say htat I'm not very much the kind of person that likes compromises, but I prefer the musicians that designes a couple fo peaces for another collection than a musician that starts it's own brand. I say this as I've just read on an article the fact that Nick McCarthy of franz Ferdinand has designed a couple of peaces of clothing for Pringle of Scotland. Well, i had heard the name Franz Ferdinand for the runway of pringle of Scotland that took place in Milan last June, but on the tv was said that they were there "as an example of Scottish elegance." No doubt for the Scottish elegance, now that I've found out why they really were there I feel a little disturbed for the fact that they actually were there because Nick designed some clothes. I think that Franz Ferdinand make enough money for the members of the band to survive, so why should they do that? I can't understand, well if someone has an idea please tell me, 'cause I want to know.
P.S. take a look to the t-shirt that Nick wears, it's his creation, it's nice but not that outstanding, isn't it?
