Keep warm and look trendy in a cable knit dress this fall! I love this grey one from the HUGO Fall/Winter Collection, which is now in stores. Team it with opaque tights and accessories in brown or black, red lips and a smokey eye make-up!
THE HUGO FASHION SHOW PLAYLIST ON
HUGO SUMMER 2013
YUKSEK’S LIFE IS NOAH’S LIFE
[HearDis! 103]
Noah And The Whale are an English neo-folk band whose name is inspired by the film The Squid and the Whale. Yuksek is a French electronic music producer from the Kitsune crew. Together, they’ve made an anthem for the end of the night. Yuksek’s version of “Life Is Life” is a 100% feel good track.
BULLMEISTER REWORKS DATA MC
[HearDis! 102]
Data MC is a Berlin-based group making a blend of contemporary hip-hop and dance music. We’ve featured them here on HUGO Tracks a couple times before. This remix by Bullmeister, though, has turned the Data MC sound on its head. The original track is a clomping, low-tempo story about a girl. Bullmeister has stripped out the vocals and frothed it into a chugging deep house track. Completely different but still wonderful.

THE LITTLE BLUE DRESS
LBD usually stands for “Little Black Dress”, but why not replace “black” with “blue” for a change? This midnight blue HUGO dress is such a classic piece. It’ll work from nine-to-five as well as for after-work cocktails.
KITTENS BECOME CATS: RKC
[HearDis! 101]
RKC began as a solo side-project for Babyshambles’ songwriter Adam Ficek. After leaving Babyshambles and Pete Doherty behind, though, he was able to fully focus on the project, which should come as wonderful news for any lover of music: RKC blows Babyshambles away. This new song, “Kittens Become Cats,” is nearly flawless – slinky, programmed drums and raw but sparse guitars are hinged around pitter-pattering vocals. And that’s just the verse. The chorus is indescribable. We’re in love with RKC. Grab a free download while it lasts and enjoy the video below.

CONTRAST
This season is all about contrasts. Here are my two favorites from the HUGO Fall/Winter Collection: A white shirt with black sleeves from the HUGO Menswear section and for the ladies a silk blouse with two contrasting patch chest pockets.
SLAVE TO ZIMMER’S HEART
[HearDis! 100]
Zimmer is a producer that grew up between France and California, and his music is a perfect combination of both places’ spirits: one half Parisian class and the other California sunshine. On “Slave To Your Heart”, Zimmer’s teamed up with an excellent vocalist named Jeremy Glenn, who adds an Azari & III feeling to the mix.
PARTY SEASON PIECE
The party season is about to start and I would usually recommend a LBD (Little Black Dress) for occasions like Christmas dinners and New Year’s Eve celebrations, but instead I suggest you take a look at the thigh-high HUGO slit dress in the pictures. Top model Karolina Kurkova is sporting the up-to-date version of a long black evening gown on the HUGO runway. I say: Opt for long and black this season and flash a hint of leg! Let’s get the party season started!
STREAMING IN YOUR SUEÑOS
[HearDis! 97]
Orthy is the nom de plume of Ian Orth, a young man from Austin, who makes dreamy, Beach Boys-inspired music. Sueños is the lead track from his debut EP, which just came out on the New York-based label, Wurst.
