Something you can buy _now_ oO

[Duchesse]

Hello my dears and roses,
I don't know where to post it but I want to share it with you.

A friend of mine saw a jacket and said "I'm sure there's Mana on it!".
So today this friend of mine and I were shopping and I looked at the jacket and YES! it is Mana-Sama on it.

I bought it without thinking a minute. It's from a "brand"/teenager/girl-fashionline called "Tally Weijl" don't know if someone knows it. It costs 25 €uro.

It's the new collection and it's the first thing (and maybe last??) thing I saw with j-rockers on it. Maybe they will get more in future, I will have a look at it.

But well enough spoken words here are the photos.

The whole jacket:

I'm not sure about the other artists. If someone knows for sure someone else feel free to tell me. I don't want to say some other names because I'm not for 100%.

I hope for every girl that wears that jacket in future is - that she will know that this are not just pretty girls on it -

It doesn't look too bad, considering that it has photos of human beings. Imo, 98% of clothes with photos of people on them are tacky and gross.

Omg I want it xD

 

[Astral Romance]

omg~

I will go to that shop and ask if they could get that for me too~

 

[Amatsu]

Wow.

Someone should contact midi-nette.

Someone should contact midi-nette.

You think so? I don't think it's bad to use pictures of celebrities for clothings. New Yorker had shirts, pullovers and some other stuff with Christina Aguilera on it (from her stripped time) not a long time ago. Just a few months. And Orsay (or Pimkie?) don't know for sure had a t-shirt with Britney Spears' face on it. These two were reeaaally big on the shirt. So you could clearly see who it is.

I don't think that the labels are asking if they're allowed to use those pictures. I think it's great that "normal humans" are able to buy clothes with his "face" on it.

Well - I know that he surely doesn't know that he is on this jacket (and that's not just only one), but I think he isn't mad about that. I think he would be surprised, but I don't see anything bad about this.

IMO - ^^.

Well, it's technically illegal to use someone's picture for something you're selling (there was something not too long ago where a company used a frame from a Woody Allen movie in their ad campaign and he sued them), however, I doubt Mana would take action against it since it's probably more trouble than it's worth. He hasn't bothered with the YouTube videos, bootleg CDs, or that poetry book either. It's hard doing a lawsuit against a foreign company.

I wouldn't wear it, doesn't fit my style.

Wasn't there something in the past about a Hungarian book titled "My Lovely Bride" (I think it was called) and had Mana on the cover.

 

[Cerceaux]

^ Yeah, the poetry book. "The Prussian Bride" As far as I know nobody did anything about it.

~Please, if you have some photos of this cover, let me know

 

[Astral Romance]

Midi-Nette is not perfect either (have you already forgotten the problems with M+A?), so i don't it is bad someone steals Mana's "face" . Cosplayers also steal Mana's face and look without asking, but nobody contacts Midi-Nette because of that XD.

 

[Clarie]

Here's a photo of the cover: http://www.libri.hu/konyv/porosz-menyasszony.html

But they say it's just the hungarian cover... The english version's cover is kinda creepy though: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51SCZGPYKFL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

I wonder if the author knows that the pretty bride printed on his book's cover is actually a male japanese musician xD

 

[Lem]

^ Yeah, the poetry book. "The Prussian Bride" As far as I know nobody did anything about it.

Oh Prussian Bride! I thought it was something like that! That's probably the best Mana appearance ever

 

[Mademoiselle Folie]

isn't it illegal to make money with someone else's image? 0_0

i could just assume they don't know who Mana-sama is, but i also can see the words "gothic lolita" or "lolita gothic" in the sweater so...

anyway i don't really care about it, it is Mana and Midi:Nette busines, not mine.

As for the sweater in itself i don't like it at all, not my style.

and a big LOL! for the book!! hahaha i think maybe they just tipped "bride/beautiful bride" in google and put the first nice image xDDDD

 

[adonis]

Oh god, Thanks a lot Clarie XDDD
I didn't know the stole a photo of Haruhiko Ash for the english cover ~~

 

[Berserk]

Why are you guys zeroing in on Mana here? XD

It looks like there are tons of different artists on that jacket. And it looks like they pictures are just ripped from magazines.

 

[voixdinferno]

For me the jacket is so ugly.

if you see a Mana pic on a **** thing, you need to buy it... C'mon guys

 

[monologue-de-chi]

I work 2m away from Tally Weijl (really XD)
They don't have this.... uuhmm... beautiful piece XDD

I also dislike it, but I wanna see it so badly XDD

For 25€ I have to work too long to through it away for sth like this, but........ it's Mana.....
but it's ugly and doesn't support him....
(I feel like Gollum when I talk like this XD)

 

[Cerceaux]

Why are you guys zeroing in on Mana here? XD

Because this is the M10M forum...?

 

[Iskanderia]

I would rather drink molten glass than wear something that says "GOTHIC" all over it.
