Edwin - Established Tokyo, Japan, 1947

Edwin – an anagram of D, E, N, I, M (reversing the M creating a W) was founded in Tokyo by Mr Tsunemi, 1947 in response to the expensive and poor quality denim domestically available in Japan at the time. Driven to create his own denims, Mr Tsunemi placed emphasis on sophistication in fits, washes and quality and from this point on, quality, craftsmanship, innovation and integrity have been fundamental to the identity and aesthetic of the Edwin brand.

By 1963 Edwin had produced the world’s heaviest ringspun denim jean (16oz), featuring the famous three-colour rainbow selvedge, which is still being used today. 7 years later they were the first company in the world to develop ‘old wash’ designed to replicate denim worn from its rigid, unwashed state and a decade later Edwin revolutionised the industry again by inventing ‘stone washing’.

Utilising exclusive fabrics, unique technology, hand wash processes, and continual progression in design and fit, Edwin is one of the most highly regarded denim brands in the world, with a cult following reaching across the globe.

In addition to the mainline denim collection Coggles.com is one of the few stockists of the Edwin Vintage collection with each style limited to 150 pieces worldwide.

Fornarina - Romance and Rock

Fornarina creates its own style by interpreting femininity freely and with a fun touch of unconventiality. In 1998 the brand launched its first clothing and accessories collection and established itself in the international fashion market. There is always a romantic and disenchanted air to the collections but laden with rock and glamour influences. Fornarina is designed to be colourful, irreverent and playful, but ultimately has very sexy silhouettes.

The current AW Fornarina collection is available now at Coggles.com

Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures - Out Now

There have been many ‘Supergroups’ in the past but perhaps non so ‘super’ as Them Crooked Vultures. The band consists of Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) on drums, Josh Homme (Queens Of The Stone Age) on lead guiter and vocals and John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) on bass guitar.

Basically it is 3 of the most talented musicians in Rock throwing their signature sounds into the melting pot and drawing them together to create a riff filled, stomping, gritty rock and dirty blues epic!

Memory Tapes - Seek Magic - Out Now

Dayve Hawk is the man behind Memory Tapes long awaited debut LP. Hawke’s sound captures an almost nostalgic and melancholic feeling with gorgeous, hazy, un-intrusive beats, soft piano synths and wavy, euphoric vocals. It’s like Hawke has taken recognisable elements of records you have heard before but put them together in an exquisite and unique way. Quite simply a beautiful album.

Ames Bros - Hand Crafted Quality

Ames Bros is the brain child of Coby Schultz and Barry Ament.

Aertex - English Heritage and Style

Perhaps better known for its cooling properties, Aertex was a massive hit from the first batch of shirts it produced, and was a leading label in Britain from the 1940's through to the 1970's.

This is the debut offering from the California 5-piece, Local Natives. The band have received recent critical acclaim and have been compared with a host of bands from Arcade Fire to Fleet Foxes.

This is a band clearly influenced by their piers, but that influence has created a stunning, swelling and swaying debut not to be missed.

Religion - Vintage with Venom

If you are not immediately familiar with the Religion brand you may be forgiven. For the first few years following its birth in 1989 it remained a largely underground label, gaining a loyal following in the East End of London’s rave scene.

Charlotte Hatherley - New Worlds - Out Now

This is her third solo album - and second since parting company with Irish pop-rockers Ash.

Nom De Guerre - The Third Generation

Since 2003 the New York based label Nom DeGuerre has combined strict military references and translated them into effortless modern re-interpretations of workwear classics. It's about strong outerwear, rugged knitwear and workwear shirts, all designed in New York and produced from the most refined materials in Japan.

Elm -Designed For Women By Women

Icelandic brand Elm Design was founded 10 years ago as a knitwear label by Erna, Lísbet and Matthildur - three women from different art and design backgrounds sharing one common philosophy: to design for women you need to understand women. This philosophy clearly manifests in the collections which are favoured by women of all ages demanding eclectic, beautiful and striking clothes.

Inspired by the unique landscapes, art and culture of Iceland, designs are dramatic yet wearable with magnificent evening dresses and military influenced coats sitting next to everyday basics like skirts, shirts and cardigans. Hand made in Peru from high quality materials such as Taffeta, Alpaca and Pima cotton, Elm is as beautifully constructed as it is designed, as sophisticated as it is eccentric, resulting in an ever growing and loyal customer base across the globe.

The current AW Elm collection is available now at Coggles.com

Harry Brown -Out November 11- Nov 2 2009

Harry Brown remains, for all its touches of gritty realism, a revenge fantasy about someone aptly described by another character as "a vigilante pensioner." Caine neatly balances ferocity and frailty, so that a viewer is never quite certain whether he's up to completing the bloody business at hand.

Pretty Green Launch Party - The Gore Hotel, Kensington

The launch party of Pretty Green, the label created by Oasis front man Liam Gallagher was held at the Gore Hotel in Kensington last night.

The Drums - Summertime - Out Now

The Drums are a fourpiece from New York who have already received critical acclaim for their debut single ‘I wanna go surfing’. This EP is a fantastic introduction to a band who fuse influences from 80’s indie to 60’s Beach Boys pop, and still manage to add their own contemporary stamp on the sound. All this from a band that only formed less than a year ago!

Fred Perry - Wear It All Night And Still Look Good In The Morning.

Fred Perry is the only brand that's consistently been sought out by youth subculture from the 1950s right up to today. Initially adopted by Mods in 1959 because "They could wear it all night and still look good in the morning" - it has then featured in almost every British youth subculture since.

Updating the attitude and style of two key musical movements - the mid-60s guitar bands, and the post-punk scene of the early-80s, these periods shared a similar sharp, slimmed down silhouette including small collars and narrow ties.

The collections main influence is the look and silhouette of the sixties, a decade dominated by youth when British subcultures influenced the world’s fashion and music industry.

The current AW Fred Perry collection is available now at Coggles.com
