Have you seen this shirt?
By Nadine Kam
Wanted: Jimi Hendrix silk-screened shirt.
Well, Fashion Week has ended, though events will continue through the week. But I promised the bf that once the shows end, the trip will be all about him. First order of biz was heading to SoHo and Nolita to find another of the Jimi Hendrix T-shirts he had bought there last spring. Unfortunately, there were none to be had. We kept seeing Che Guevara and Bob Marley shirts and the vendors kept trying to tell him they were just as nice, good, etc. Never mind that they’re different people who stand for different things. Traipsing around all day in a fruitless search is no fun, though, so by the end of the day I was coming around to their way of thinking. “You better switch to Bob Marley,” I told him. He wasn’t amused.
Alice Cooper is the current face for John Varvatos.
Along the way we also checked out the John Varvatos store. Beautiful men’s coats, jackets and rock ‘n’ roll influenced casual wear. Unfortunately, with winter styles starting to fill the stores, there’s not much suitable for Hawaii wear.
Anyway, if you happen to know where we can get this red Hendrix shirt, lemme know!

I love John Varvatos. Did you also see his skin line for men? Last year, we bought some of his stuff. I like his bottle design too. It’s made of heavy rubber so it does not slip easly from your bathroom sink or shower. His colonge is one of my top 10 beside Marc Jacobs.
Betsy wore Jimi Hendrix tank top last year when she did rock and roll chick look. I’ll ask her where she got it.
