Brandon Flowers Fashion Line at K-Mart?
Yeah. That's right. That's Killers' lead singer Brandon Flowers in front of a big red K, the trademark logo for K-Mart. So does this mean a fashion pact between the dandy singer and the discount chain? Maybe.
Flowers (who has been described as
foppish and fey) is a huge fan of fashion. In fact, it was his favorite
designer Dior who delivered that famous pink jacket. But in an interview
with The Times, he explains that his signature blazer has lost some of his original shine. "I had this nice pink Dior jacket, but I was
sweating so much that it ended up a weird purple color," he told the British paper.
Flowers also admitted that not only
fashion designers, but also some of his peers have inspired his look.
In the The Times he reveals that he wore Hush Puppies to his first
meeting with guitarist Dave Keuning just "because Oasis wore them."
So what we can expect from an affordable Brandon Flowers fashion line at KMart? Hush puppies, pink leather blazers and black pants? Not sure if that would pass the Queerty fashion test or MiB's sense of style, but it would sure rock mainstream U.S. fashion a little.
But to be clear, the photo of Brandon in front of the big K has no association with K-Mart at all (to my knowledge). It is just a coincidence. The photo was taken for the fashion feature in The Times on October 7. But it is sort of fun to think about it, don't you think? And the photo made me wonder.

Ewww, I don't like him any more.

Ewww, I don't like him anymore
Posted by: Marie Soloman at Oct 29, 2005 5:29:59 PM
ewww, he sucks now

ewwww...maybe the 'K' stands for 'Killers"?!?!?
just a thought

Guys, I'm sure it's a K for "Killers". Brandon owns Dior, Chanel and other designers, he wouldn't start a line at K-Mart. And even if he did, why would that change your opinion on him? His lyrics/voice/music are still just as amazing as they've always been.

I couldn't care less... he looks so good in that pic I almost can't deal with that alone!!! He's just ideal.

The K is way too smashed (different typeface) to be K-mart. He's dreamy.

In my view not only do flowers add color and aroma to a living room, kitchen, or dining room, they also lift our spirits and stimulate an emotional response.

Brandon Flowers could come up with a clothing line made entirely out of trashbags and that would not change the fact that he is gorgeous and oh so talented. Now get over it. K is just a letter of the alphabet.

AN OPEN LETTER TO BRANDON FLOWERS.
Dear Brandon,
As you may be aware, you are huge rock star. In fact, you are a member of one of the finest bands in all history. You have given the world awesome music and incredible live performances. However, as you also may or may not be aware, you yourself are one of the most breath-takingly, mind-shatteringly, pee-in-my-pants gorgeous individuals that God saw fit to bless humanity with. Trust me. I’m not lying here. You’re unbelievably fucking hot.
Now, the only problem I have with you is this: You have yet, in all your years of success, in all your photo and video ops, in ANYTHING, to give us a peek at what’s under that shirt of yours. Not once. Ever. No shirtless pictures or video of any kind.
Why? Why Brandon? Tell me PLEASE why you have thus far seen fit to deprive the world of the heavenly sight of your bare torso. It’s just not good enough.
We demand more. Your fans demand more. Wanking its very self demands more.
So please, for fuck’s sake, just take that shirt off.
Sincerely,
A Fan.

Brandon is definitely the most gorgeous singer I have ever seen and he is hugely talented as a songwriter and singer as well. It is really great to have someone so handsome to look at and makes a welcome change from most of the dreary singers we have to look at. The Killers are the only band I love to watch.
