It seems that London is getting the best of what Incase has to offer lately. First the new Apple store in Covent Garden gets a new set of fab exclusive cases to cover your Apple gadgets, and now the latest designer to partner up with Incase, Eley Kishimoto, will launch these amazing graphic cases at the upcoming London Fashion Week.

The cases, which are fit for your 13-inch Macbook Pros, iPads, and iPhone 4s, come with a visually striking pink or black graphic design that makes a bold statement for any gadget geek. I'm a huge fan of these cases, and if you are as well, you'll be happy to know that the Eley Kishimoto collection will be available in the Incase online store starting Sept. 20 for those inside and outside the UK.

Designer Spotlight: Eley Kishimoto

Since Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto, the London designers behind Eley Kishimoto, were recently named the new creative directors for Cacharel, I thought I would give you a better introduction to their style.

Known in some circles as the patron saints of print, Eley Kishimoto has been credited with influencing the resurgence of patterns on the international design scene. They partnered in the 1992 directly after graduating from Central Saint Martins design school, starting in womenswear but eventually expanding into bags, jewelery, sunglasses, and even home accessories.

Bold graphic prints combined with bright colors have always been their forte, brokering collaborations with the likes of Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, and Alexander McQueen. I've always been a fan of their lighthearted designs, and I'm really excited to see what they have in mind for Cacharel!

Eley Kishimoto is available at Creatures of Comfort and runs $19-$850.

London-based Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto have been tapped as the new designers for Cacharel. The couple has collaborated on the Eley Kishimoto line, well-known for its colorful graphic prints, since the mid-90s. In the past, they have contributed their talent for print designs and fabric development to Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton.

After Eley and Kishimoto move to Paris, their first collection for the French contemporary sportswear line, which was founded in 1962 and is also known for its print-driven pieces, will be for Fall 2008. Looking forward to it!
