Lego fashion

One of the current trends for 80's brands is their revival in a retro style, but ultra popular brands. This was the case with Reebok, and lately a completely different brand has been going through the same process - the well known and for many of us favorite toy brand Lego.

Tough Lego has been developing and stands amongst the best toy brands now it has become part of the street style brands. Lego motives appear in design of watches, bags, belts, mobile phones, cameras and even cookies. Designers like Marc Jacobs have introduced the trend on the catwalks already last season with accessories made of Lego parts.

Jean - Charles de Castelbajac has even created a video fashion show where models are replaced by figures made of Lego (http://vimeo.com/2150757). Castelbajac has recently made a collection based on Lego colors and shapes. These recognizable toy colors and shapes integrated into outfits or accessories are a refreshing experience, in the same time bringing the smell of our childhood and nostalgic memories.
