SWEET FIX 'FM RADIO'

SWEET FIX is one of my new finds, or should I say they found me! Marco Santini, the drummer from the band, found me on a subway platform in Chelsea in Manhattan, coming home from a GMHC charity event that featured the fashions of Jean Paul Gaultier, Thom Browne, Sally LaPointe & Zang Toi. I was carrying a red book of about the legendary Diana Vreeland and Mr. Santini recognized me from a book that I happened to be featured in a few years back, entitled, 'Style File: The World's Most Elegantly Dressed' by Ike Ude, published by Harper Collins.

Marco came up to me (a little disconcerting, at first) and complimented me on my long brown velvet Etro great coat, which I had strategically thrown over my shoulders. He was extremely polite and ever so respectful (and hugely handsome too). He engaged me in a brief conversation whilst waiting for the train and inside the subway car too. After I introduced myself to him and he to me, he coyly admitted to recognizing me from that book which I had been featured in (Style File) and he graciously gave me a copy of their newest cd, 'FM RADIO'! I obviously was thrown aback, but flattered nonetheless and you know what, he found my website from Google (apparently I'm the only Image Guru named Montgomery Frazier in the world) and he emailed me the very next day! We started a form of correspondence, which led me to his group, SWEET FIX. After hearing their sound and seeing their video for 'FM RADIO' I've had a SWEET FIX-ation for the group ever since and they've been rising in viewers on YouTube for the last few weeks since our meeting. Thank you very much!

SWEET FIX reminds me of the pop boy-band groups of the early 80's! A fresh and uncluttered, yet very retro 80's sound with influences from bands like Cheap Trick, Foo Fighters, or a punk verion of The Flame, according to Mark Okon. The SWEET FIX lead singer, Tommy Walker, reminds me of a cross between Billy Idol and Keith Flint, the lead singer of The Prodigy. Marco Santini, Sweet Fix's drummer, looks like Kevin Richardson from The Backstreet Boys. But regardless of whatever influences or whomever they happen to remind me of personally, the band happens to be a very SEXY group of accomplished and talented young musicians with a penchant for COLOR...and I LOVE COLOR TOO and hot, sexy, boy-bands too!

'FM RADIO' their newest single release, is climbing on YouTube! I see a bright future for SWEET FIX.

Enjoy 'FM RADIO'.

FERN MALLIS TO HEAD INTERNATIONAL LIFESTYLE STUDIO, ADVISORY COUNCIL
ILS 2012: SCOTLAND

December 1, 2011: ILS:2012 (International Lifestyle Studio) announces the appointment of Fern Mallis as Advisory Council Chairperson for its launch event for its premier annual multimedia platform dedicated to global commerce. The core focus of ILS is to connect top designers and international creative industries through integrated events, product launches and retail experiences. The first featured event will be a high-profile runway show at Hammerstein Ballroom highlighting textiles from Scotland, on March 28, 2012.

Fern Mallis, creator and organizer ( 1993-2010) of New York Fashion Week, will advise and oversee curation for the designer phase and the inaugural launch event, the ILS 2012: Scotland runway show. The fashion show, the centerpiece of the ILS cutting-edge cultural experience, will highlight Scotland’s finest fashion and textiles manufacturers and feature an exciting roster of notable established and emerging fashion designers. This showcase will include six exclusive capsule collections made from the broad range of Scottish textiles.

ILS is the original creation of Alex Trimper and Little Rascals Creative Concepts, LLC (LRCC). LRCC has selected Fern Mallis, formerly Executive Director CFDA, and Senior Vice President of IMG Fashion, widely recognized as the originator of New York Fashion Week, for her innovative spirit and style which she will bring to the ILS initiative.

“The ILS concept speaks to one of my fashion industry visions,” says Fern Mallis, “I believe fashion is a global business and provides opportunities for designers to partner with the best textile manufacturers in the world, as every design starts with the fabric."

Confirmed Advisory Council members include Jeffrey Banks, Men's Fashion Designer and author; Ian Gerard, Founder of GenArt; Tanya Hill, VP at Publicis, Catherine Moellering, EVP, Tobe Report and Cator Sparks, EIC of Lookbooks.com.

ILS: 2012 is in strategic partnership with Textiles Scotland, an organization created to profile Scotland’s highly respected textile producers and designers. The Scottish industry has evolved over hundreds of years to utilize the latest technology in the production of sophisticated fabrics and finished goods for apparel and interiors while maintaining a worldwide reputation for quality and service. Known for its time-loved classic Shetlands, Fair Isles, Harris Tweed and Tartans, Scotland also boasts innovative production of woven fabrics, hand knits, lace, cashmere, and leathers. The ILS 2012:Scotland fashion show, produced by The King Collective, will feature video, runway and lifestyle presentations expanding beyond the event to retail partnerships where consumers can purchase the collections for Fall 2012.

“We were inspired by the cross fertilization we see in our own lives through travel, the internet and the global marketplace,” says Alex Trimper, “ILS is poised to be the lab where, each year, nations, creators and fabricators come together to create the Medici Effect!”

Stewart Roxburgh of Scottish Enterprise’s national textiles team, (www.textilescotland.co.uk) relates, ”Our goal as partner with ILS is that Scotland continues to be recognized as a significant player in the supply of innovative products and services to the textile industry. ILS’s choice of Scotland as the selected country to launch the ILS platform is perfectly in line with that goal and we are excited by the prospect of being the pioneer, a role that Scotland has played in many other fields.”

The designers being chosen by the Advisory Council will be announced early December, with manufacturer and designer collaborations and first sketches presented mid-February. VIP industry cocktail events and satellite events are planned and key sponsorships will be incorporated.
