You'd think it was a foolproof formula: Levis+Warhol=Superstar. But instead of sprinkling some glitter on vintage-cut jeans, the folks behind Warhol Factory X Levi's (launched in spring 2006) took the classic look of the 501's Andy himself wore and killed it with inspiration from some obscure silk screens. At a recent fashion show that New York's Gershwin Hotel hosted as part of a week long tribute to Warhol, the red plaid and vinyl ensembles paired with nerdy specs and suspenders looked far more Pee-Wee than Edie. The problem -- too much art, not enough substance. Would someone please send a memo to Chrome Hearts X Mapplethorpe?
