Titania Design is a Swedish alternative fashion label with roots in the Psy Trance scene. The label was established seven years ago by Linda Ljungberg, who does everything from design to sales and administration.Titania Design brings out a new collection every year in connection with the European Psy Trance festivals in the Sum-mer. This year’s tour included Antaris Project, Fullmoon Festival and Vuuv in Germany. You can also find Titania‘s creations at the onlineshop www.titani-adesign.com. The beautiful website is made by Amrit, L.I.S.A.The last collection was produced in Nepal and includes among other materials organic hemp and organic cotton. It also contains what has become characteri-stic for Titania Design: vegetable leather, an alternative to animal leather. Other typical elements in the clothes and accessories from Titania Design are beautiful stones and beads, embroideries, dragonflies and patchworks that together make every piece of design unique. The name Titania comes from Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and is the name of the fairy queen. It is also the name of the largest moon of Uranus, that once was so hot it was liquid.

Kräftige, satte Farben und pfif-fige, mit den Formen des mensch-lichen Körpers spielende Schnitte: So setzt das Berliner Label Cha-pati auffällig warme und bunte Akzente im unterkühlten Grau des Alltags und erinnert uns in dieser Funktion an die unbe-schwerte Herzlichkeit, die wir anstatt distanzierter Bezugslosig-keit teilen könnten.

Mit dem Anspruch von „intelligenter Mode für Individualisten, mit der sowohl der aktuelle Zeitgeist getroffen, als auch die persönliche Note des Ein-zelnen unterstrichen wird“ ist Chapati bereits seit 1997 aktiv. Die Kleider sind indes nicht nur ein Vergnügen für die Betrachter derselben: Die eleganten

Baumwoll- Viskose- Stoffe der aktu-ellen Kollektion etwa gleiten auf der Haut hinab wie ein warmer Sommer-regen. Neben dem klassischen Chapati Design steht beim Sublabel Saphira Night die mystische Eroberung der Nacht im Vordergrund und Alltag Ber-lin schlägt den Spagat zwischen sport-licher Ungezwungenheit und eleganter Exotik. Apropos Berlin: In der deut-schen Hauptstadt gibt es gleich 8-mal die Möglichkeit, die Welten von Cha-pati buchstäblich hautnah zu erleben!

Strong, lush colours and smart cuts, cheerfully playing with the shapes of the human body: This is the way in which Berlin based label Chapati sets warm and colourful accents in the middle

of gloomy everyday life and the-refore reminds us the carefree warmth in which we could inter-act with each other instead of reserved anonymity.

Pursuing the approach of “intelli-gent fashion for individualists, mat-ching the recent zeitgeist as well as underlining the personal note of every human”, Chapati is on the go since already 1997. Their cloths are not only a pleasure for those wat-ching them: For example the ele-gant cotton- viscose materials of the newest collection glide down one’s skin like a tender, warm sum-mer rain. Beside the classi-cal Chapati Design label, Saphira Nights represents

a sublabel dedicated to the mysti-cal conquest of the night and All-tag Berlin performs the balancing act between sporty casualness and exotic elegance. Apropos Berlin: The German capital offers even 8 possi-bilities for getting literally in touch with the worlds of Chapati!

Ajna Organicinspired by natureinspired by nature

Producing since 2004, Germany-based design label Ajna made itself a name by its “triple feel-good philoso-phy”: First, it feels really good to look at the understated elegance of their clothing. Second, it is simply a good feeling on the skin when wearing Ajna’s clothes. And third, it also feels good at heart to wear these clothes because they have been produced 100% ecologically. To make sure that

this crucial component of their philoso-phy is really put to practice, Ajna relies on the Global Organic Textile Standard, a seal of quality given by a renowned international organization that moni-tors the production from the growth of the cotton to the sewing of the clo-thes. Apropos Clothes: Ajna just relea-sed a new series, especially for child-ren. Featuring earthy colours, it repre-sents an exciting new way to dress also

the offspring in a magnificently alter-native style.

TRANCEWEAR TO UNBEATABLE PRICES AT WWW.MUSHROOM-MAILORDER.COM

Schon seit den frühen 90ern ver-treibt Guapo psychedelische Mode, ohne jedoch ein eigenes Label zu betreiben. Nachdem dies anfangs durch Shops auf Festi-vals geschah, verlegte Guapo sei-nen Verkauf 1998 ins Internet, um noch mehr Freaks bei der Mode-suche behilflich zu sein.

Das erste, was man auf der Web-seite bemerkt, ist ihre Benutzer-freundlichkeit und dass sie sowohl für Einzel- als auch für Großhandels-kunden zeitgemäße Sicherheit und Datenschutz bietet. Bei über 800 Artikeln wird man überraschend einfach fündig, seien es nun spa-cige Goa Sachen oder urban inspi-rierte Streetwear. Im Sommer wird eine neue Reihe hinzukommen, die sich auf natürliche Materialien und Erdtöne konzentriert. Mit einer so großen Auswahl ist die Seite wohl ein Lesezeichen wert. Guapo ver-tritt hohe Standards, sowohl was die Qualität der Artikel angeht als auch die Abwicklung von Bestellvorgän-gen. Auch nach 12 Jahren und tau-send zufriedener Kunden stehen bei Guapo die Menschen und der Pla-net nach wie vor im Vordergrund.

GUAPO clothing for the alienated

While not a clothing label, Guapo has still always been at the front line, selling psychedelic fashion since the early 90‘s. Originally sel-ling at festivals in Europe, Guapo moved the store online in 1998 to help more freaks to find fashion.

The first thing you notice is that the store is easy to use and offers secure, private shopping for who-lesale and retail customers. With over 800 items for sale, it‘s surpri-singly easy to find what you want, from flashy Goa styles to dark, urban inspired street wear. According to the owners, new ranges will be added to the store during the sum-mer that focus on natural materi-als and earthy tones. With so many styles to choose from, it‘s a good site to bookmark and return to when you need something to dress. The team at Guapo holds itself to high standards, both concerning the qua-lity of what it sells and the way they handle orders from their customers. 12 years of experience and thou-sands of happy customers later, peo-ple and the planet still are the para-mount for Guapo.

Der Virus hatte beinahe die gesamte Menschheit ausgelöscht. Den wenigen, die jenes tragische Laborunglück über-lebt hatten, setzte die versuchte Luft schwer zu. Die Zivilisation war in zwei Teile zersplittert: Den Technoids war fort-an alles egal, überzeugt vom baldigen Ende nutzten sie alle Technologien für die verzweifelt- exzessive Suche nach dem ultimativen, dem endgültigen Glück, ohne Rücksicht auf Verluste. Die Natu-rals hingegen hatten sich nach jenem verhängnisvollen Laborunfall von den Errungenschaften der Zivilisation abge-kehrt und suchten die Verbindung mit der Natur. Während ihrer merkwürdigen, mystischen Rituale und besorgten Auf-räumarbeiten hatten sie entdeckt, dass die Luft nicht mehr vergiftet war…

The virus had extinguished mankind almost entirely. The few, who had sur-vived that tragic laboratory accident, had to struggle with the heavily conta-minated air. Civilization had split into two camps: The Technoids did not care about anything any more, being convin-ced by the end approaching, they used every technology for their desperate search for the ultimate, the final kick; regardless of losses. Compared with them, the Naturals had withdrawn from all achievements of modern society after that fatal laboratory accident and sear-ched for unity with nature. During their strange, mystic rituals and worried clean-up operations they had discovered that the air was not poisoned any more…

Passend zur warmen Jahreszeit, in der sich das Leben deutlich weniger in den eigenen vier Wänden und dafür deutlich mehr unter freiem Himmel abspielt, präsentieren wir euch ein neues Fashion Special! Mit viel Liebe zum Detail sind auch diesmal wieder einige sehr spannende Kollektionen dabei, welche die vielfältige Schönheit und Einzigartigkeit unserer Szene buchstäblich auf den Leib schneidern und somit eine anregende Abwechslung für die Augen bieten. So wie all die verschiedenen Produzenten, DJs und Dekorationskünstler sind auch die Modelabels Teil des kreativen Ausdrucks unserer Szene. Ihre Arbeit steht einerseits weit weniger im Rampenlicht als die der anderen Künstler, andererseits sind gerade sie dafür verantwortlich, dass die Menschen unserer Szene so interessant und erfrischend anders aussehen. In diesem Sinne wünschen wir euch nun ganz viel Spaß beim schöne Sachen gucken!

It‘s all about unique prints, strong accents, edgy cuts and natu-ral fabrics. It‘s no clothing for weak personalities. Wea-ring Psylo requires strong attitude. It is both an unfor-gettable experience and sta-ting a dynamic approach to life. Psylo is about enjoying every second of a day to the full. The brand DNA origi-nates in music and club cul-ture but throughout years the Psylos have been deve-loping into a street-wear niche with punk and eth-nic accents.Psylo clothing can be purchased world-wide from indepen-dent retailers or in the Psylo online shop. All wholesale enquiries should be directed to the London based office. The new Winter collection 2010 can be experienced during the London Edge fashion trade show between 5th - 7th of September.

Unsere psychedelische Kultur hat viele Ausdrucksformen. Neben Musik, Deko und Bodyart ist Kleidung ein wichtiges Element, dem sich viele Underground Desig-ner verschrieben haben. War Trancemode in der Vergangenheit noch ein bun-

ter Einheitsbrei, diversifiziert sich der Stil nun in verschiedenste Richtungen. Hip, chic, cool, sexy oder gleich alles auf einmal. Wir werfen in unserem dies-maligen Modespecial speziell einen Blick in den Kleiderschrank der ehemali-

gen Elfinnen, denn auch Fabelwesen entwickeln sich weiter...

Our psychedelic culture has many different forms of expression. Besides music, deco and bodyart, clothing is an important element which many

designers are choosing to explore. If some claim Trance fashion was a Technicolor unity blend in the past years, today this look has diver-

sified into wildly different directions. Hip, chic, cool, sexy and also everything combined. In our current fashion special we take a peek

inside the closets of the Elves of the past, as mythical creatures of course also undergo an evolution....
