D&G: Behind The Scenes
This looks suspiciously calm and beautiful to us. Bet there's lots of screaming, shouting, tears and fear the day before! How gorgeous does D&G's latest collection look? Very gorgeous, is the answer.

Moonrise Kingdom [Trailer]
Moonrise Kingdom from Flush the Fashion on Vimeo.
This looks pretty amazing. If not totally weird. But then, everything Wes Anderson does is a bit bonkers. Also, can we talk about Bill Murray's hair? Wow.

What was I doing when I was 7? Finger painting and times tables I reckon. And falling off my BMX.
Check this 7 year-old future skate champ in the making. Kid is ridiculous!
BRITS: Congratulations Sheeran
A lovely evening at the Brit Nominations last night. The G-Shock crew headed to The Savoy to witness this year's Brit's Critic Awardee Emeli Sande and the night's big nominee, Ed Sheeran, perform in front of industry types and slebs including Professor Green, Rizzle Kicks and Jessie J.
Ed led the pack with an incredible 4 nominations. "Exactly a year ago to the day I signed my record deal with Asylum/Atlantic Records. Today I have an album that's gone triple platinum, 3 sold out tours and now four BRIT Award nominations. I'm over the moon! I really couldn't have hoped for a better start to 2012."
Ahh, congratulations to our very favourite ginger. It was also a good night for Jessie J and Adele, who had three nominations, while Florence, Coldplay and Emeli all received two nods. The Brit Awards willbe broadcast on ITV1, live from the 02, on Tuesday 21 February.

White Powder Gold: Can't Stop Me Now
New band White Powder Gold combine rock, punk R&B and some serious soul in an aural alchemy of epic proportions. We meet the London fourpiece…
‘White Powder Gold’ is the stuff of precious metal legend (See: Harry Potter). How/ why did you come up with the name?
We have always been into seeking knowledge; we watch a lot of documentaries and read a lot of books. We are fascinated by ancient civilizations, so when we came across Monatomic Gold and what is was used for it seemed a fitting name for the band. White powder gold is said to be a super conductor; when consumed it heightens ones sense of awareness and balances both hemispheres of the brain, this is what we feel music should do.
How did the band form? Jermaine and Jamie you went to college, but how about the rest of the band?
When we started, we were producing and writing for the two of us in mind but the sound grew beyond two guys performing to a CD. We initially had two of our friends in the band to, but then soon came to realise that finding the right musicians was no easy task! Three drummers and three guitarist's later we bought in Corky (drum's) and Chris (Guitar). He had just finished playing in a band that we liked, so we stole him [laughs).
When you sat down and started writing, what were your intentions as a band?
Having grown up listening to the likes of 2pac, Bob Marley, Rage Against the Machine, The Sex Pistols and Public Enemy, who were all quite revolutionary in their own right, we felt that it was really missing in the industry. There are a lot of artists out there, chatting a lot of sh*t and considering the current economic climate it’s unbelievable that there are not more artists out there speaking the truth. We are not here to preach, everybody likes to have a good time but there is still sh*t that needs to be said. As for how would we describe our sound? The Future (laughs).
How do you feel about comparisons to Bob Marley & The Wailers, The Sex Pistols and The Beatles? They’re pretty big boots to fill!
A journalist compared us to those artists and it stuck until now. We would never compare ourselves to those artists; those are some big ass boots to fill (laughs).
If you could work with anybody in the whole wide world, who would it be?
The Prodigy.
How has 2011 built for you, and how do you plan to expand on that this year?
2011 was amazing so far, we found our sound, the band came together and the music was received well. This year, more gigs, release the singles and then an album.
We’ve heard four great songs from you guys; what can we expect of new music from you?
You can expect our music to keep progressing and evolving. Our music surprises us sometimes, so even we don't know what to expect. Our first single is out February 2012 and our EP is out now in Rough Trade. We’re aiming to drop an album by the end of next year.
Who are your tips for 2012?
Lana Del Ray, Dot Rotten and The Chevin.
