NEW IN TOWN

Introducing a new regular post on the hottest talent we have in London...whether this be womens board, mens board, new faces or established star, we wan't to keep you updated on who's making Elite London their home for the time being...and also show off our exceptional polaroiding skills! Here's 2 amazing new faces for you to take a look at...bloggers meet Clara and Justin!

Misha wore Prada...

It's only once a fashion week, whether it be Ready to Wear, Couture or Menswear, is over that we get the chance to take a look back and celebrate the major breakouts of the Season. Following what was a hugely successful opening show Season for many of our Elite boys we couldn’t move on without saying a major congratulations to Misha Patel...an Elite London guy through and through, Misha snapped up the holy grail of show bookings as an exclusive for Prada in Milan. We couldn’t be more proud, of our boys and our board as a whole...bring on the rest of 2011!

Land of the Stupid, Home of the Brave

We're going guy crazy here at Elite, with many of our boys travelling to the fashion capitals for the menswear fashion weeks and now two of our favourites, Vincent Banic  and Texas Olsen have travelled to Diesel Island for the SS11 campaign 'Land of the Stupid, Home of the Brave'.  Diesel Island is "a tropical utopia where the principles of the Be Stupid manifesto can thrive and flourish" so we hope the boys had as much fun being there as we are having looking at them.
