Kurt Cobain inspires Number (N)ine's spring/summer collection
In further proof that the '90s are back in full force, trendy New York designer Takahiro Miyashita has based his Number (N)ine label's spring/summer collection on that decade's most famous rocker: Kurt Cobain. "About a Boy if he was still alive," is an upscale nod to the grunge rock aesthetic -- using the layered, rugged, you're-either-depressed-or- from-Seattle look as inspiration for a variety of separates that, according to Refinery 29's Loryn Hatch, can be "toned down, or decked out."
The raincoat pictured at right is Hatch's favorite piece, and I can see why. Especially for guys who aren't going to buy a new wardrobe every season, a kick ass coat is a quick-fix way to overhaul your look without hours of shopping.
The entire spring collection is available January 20th.

Looks more like Indiana Jones than anything Kurt would've worn. Anyone ever see Kurt in a wide-brimmed hat?!
