Kings Of Leon Make Flannel Fashionable
Flannel gets a boost at the hands of the Followill clan, three brothers and a cousin who form the popular band Kings of Leon. The band from Tennessee has created a new fashion line with the Paris-based fashion collective Surface to Air. The result is countrified hipster collection that includes flannel shirts, a black leather jacket, patched jeans, a red bandana and a black fedora. Those who want in might be in need of a passport the line will only be available at the Copenhagen boutique Paris Texas. The store's blog has complete pictures of the collection and reports that pieces will hit the store in early December.[via Black Book]

Actually, what I think they have successfully done here is blurred the line between irony and fashion. Do they think they look good? Or do they think they look like tools and they are making fun of people who think that they look good? It's impossible to tell!
...which will of course cause all the hipsters to convulse from the meta-irony of the situation.
I'm buying popcorn.
