GUITAR SHIRT IS ROCKIN' @ JCP

As part of a reoccurring cubical-fixture program in JCP retail stores; showcased is one of our newest soon-to-be, repeat-selling, licensed styles. We wanted to show how it feels when the idea stage becomes a reality (from the actual idea, to the drawing board/cad mockup, license number, to actual production, then into retail...and then into fixture program). Although this shirt recently made its debut and is one design in our massive 1000+ licensed styles - apparel program, we also have a few other sticking, reopeat & best selling licensed styles among the same program along with it that have a more mature stage in sales and reorders. This one particular shirt does “stand out” amongst the crowd and other related music shirts in JCP. It has more of an artsy feel to it, rather than just a brand, music and guitars. Plus, it looks so good on a Navy body. We salute you GUITAR SHIRT! Rock On!

NYC MARKET WEEK

Above, we are showcasing to you just a fraction of our licensed styles being displayed in our licensee’s showroom this upcoming NYC Market Week. We have a hot trend and buyer request going on with our urban and color mix styles. The above is for the BOYS category. Some styles above where also translated into short & long sleeve fall combos and hoodies in the showroom. They look so cool.

2 NEW MOBILE CATEGORIES RELEASED

Okay…We know there are many graphic texture catalogs out there. Though this time, we tweaked our photographed textures with today’s hot color mix trends. It’s a HUE, SHADOWS, HIGHLIGHTS, SATURATION and COLOR LEVEL thing. We know it sounds a bit artzy pop…but we do know our trends and colors. We study them religiously daily, because we have to. We have to…because our apparel end has a 6 month prior lead time ahead of our launches. So we learn what’s going to be hot through some hard core research and shopping trends. For some that’s a hard forecast to align and get it right each time. But we do it…and hope we do it right each time. Most of the time…our track record shows success. That’s just years of experience and compulsiveness. So we apply this theory to our mobile content. It used to be the other way around. Funny how it’s turned. These look hot and colorful as we tested them on many screen sizes before launch. On the Urban Crash Mix end…well, we are up to our 5th Volume. All of the above combined host around 120 wallpapers. This was a real fun production and we are proud of it.

LICENSED UNDER RETAILER'S PRIVATE LABEL

While we are already on the shelves in this particular retailer with a top seller (t-shirt) in the music fashion end…i-Create lands another licensed design (its spinoff surf-lifestyle version - being tested), now among and under this top US retailer’s own private label. This is exciting news. That’s all we can say for now…hush…hush!

GOING STRONG!

Our fashionably cool, colorful, urban and recent trendy released styles are a hit. Much of them getting uploaded onto topnotch carrier decks, onto highly exposed branded off-deck portals, onto popular distributed carrier subscription apps, and also independent (by theme) iPhone & iTouch apps. This includes their revolver spinoffs as well. It looks as if (the way we do it) that…skulls, motorcycles, autos, trucks, bmx, surf, skate, music, art, peace, hearts and graffiti…still have a big accepting audience. We may have revitalized the wallpaper market. We stand out as the new “IN” style. Why not, the apparel versions are a hit in many major retailers giving way for us to expect the wallpapers to continue to be a hit as well.

ANN OYING

Remember that icky little girl in middle school who had soft wet lunch pretzels stuck in between her braces, big splitend ponytails in her hair, spit flying out of her mouth when she spoke, a real obnoxious attitude for no reason whatsoever, and very thick bifocal glasses making her eyes look three times bigger. Well, we guess she wasn’t all that nerdy and annoying because AT&T just placed her wallpapers on their deck. Basically this makes her cool…although she’s still “Ann Oying”
