Swedish car company Volvo celebrated the presentation of their new S60 model last night in Berlin with the Volvo Subject60 Tour. They rented out a really nice spot in the city, which is most of the time being used by the Premium fashion tradeshow. Swedish singer Lykke Li performed. Its the first time I have seen her live and I have to admit that it was actually pretty good. After Lykke Li our man Adam Port spinned. Volvo also invited Facehunter to document the evening, so watch out for video material and lots of photos coming from him soon. The tour will continue in London, Paris, Milan and Madrid in the coming weeks.

Some of you might have heard by now about the 14oz Berlin store. It is founded by the same people that run the Bread & Butter tradeshow and if you are only slightly interested in heritage brands and brands that care about traditional high end production, this is a store that you cannot miss. From Nigel Cabourn, Red Wing, RRL to Moscot, Alden, Tricker’s, the store carries a wide range of fantastic brands.

The other day I wondered through it and came across their own make-ups of Tricker’s classics. You have probably seen some Comme des Garcons x Tricker’s or uniform experiment x Tricker’s shoes on Highsnobiety or Selectism. While over the years the collaborative works of the English brand were very impressive, I was a little surprised to see a “collabo” with 14oz. There is one thing that people (including myself) tend to forget though. Tricker’s does not really do any collaborations, they are just doing custom footwear and they do that since day 1. Anybody can order a pair of Tricker’s and choose colors and materials. So I guess you cannot call these brand get togethers a “real” collaboration.

Nevertheless, seeing your brand name and/or store name in such a wonderful pair of shoes must be very satisfying!

Here is now a little more background info on the whole trip. In my previous posts you might have seen me dropping the name of Jaques d’Azur, the so called King of Cannes. While the King of Cannes seems to have disappeared a search for the heir started. I dont want to take away too much about the whole story, and suggest that you start googling and facebooking a little, because the search on who this infamous Jaques d’Azur is, is actually quite fun.

Below is a video on the heir that made it to the film festival this year to take the place of Jaques d’Azur.

The Cannes Film Festival 2010 journey continues. After arriving earlier yesterday and hanging at the Mansion of Jaques d’Azur, we ended up going to the film premier of a Russian movie last night.

Arriving at the red carpet of the film festival was stunning. I can safely say that I have never seen that many photographers in one spot and certainly not with me right in the middle of it. Obviously they realized pretty quickly that I was no big shot, which I was very happy about, because I could just walk through. Check out the images to get a slight idea of this chaos.

When getting into the festival center, you came across lots of Tim Burton artwork decorating the venue. It was work of his from the last 20 or so years and was actually a nice touch.

I have to admit, the fact that it was Russian took away a little excitement before, but the movie actually made up for all of it. The movie was basically about WWII and it was very long, but the cinematography was just incredible and very impressive. The images in the film, the music, it was all beautiful and also very heavy on a emotional level. I was very happy to have seen it, as it is not the movie one would usually go see or rent out.

After that we went back to the hotel, chilled out a little and then ended up going to VIP Room, a club that sets up shop temporary in Cannes every year during the film festival. Mary J. Blige sang some songs live with the DJ and the place was just overall unreal. Its the type of celebrity over-infused club that you can only take every once in a while and also not for too long. But I have to say, it was more than fitting the overall Cannes experience and if you only take it half serious, its actually fun for a night.

I just got to the hotel and its set in a beautiful natural scenery just outside Cannes. Super calm, which I actually enjoy, as the craziness around the festival will start later this evening.

Here some first impressions with more to follow through out the weekend!
