The Tank Chair consists of 4 models, baby pink, white transparent, baby blue and black, which are made of Plexiglass and foal or calf. 8 limited edition pieces of each Tank Chair model have been created.
In The Tank Chair photo shoot Pharrell was wearing a pair of Nike Snowboarding Danny Kass x Arbito Zoom Force 1 Boots. Nike Snowboarding created this boot for pro snowboarder, Danny Kass in collaboration with Seattle-base artist, Arbito who is well known for his vivid hallucinogenic paintings. The boots, also known as Double Tongue, features dual “tongues” to ensure ground clearance for snowboard pants when a boarder is not riding. This is definitely an interesting choice by Mr. Williams and comes as no surprise because he is a trend setter. Pharrell is also wearing the Switzerland themed International Down Vest by Ralph Lauren, and a pair of BBC jeans.

How can you be futuristic and chic in the same time? For the Balenciaga f/w 2010 collection, Nicolas Ghesquière did it perfectly, especially with the BREATHTAKING footwear! Shoes, shoes, shoes are one of the most important accessories for women (along with the bag). These block-heeled loafers are lavishly bold, you either love them or not! The color palettes, fabrics and mix of textures make them a signature! Bravo, Nicholas!
The collection is great as well and we will review it soon, but the shoes just could not wait…
