The economy has taken plenty of victims, but a bit of good news has come out of Australia now. The cult denim label Ksubi, which went into voluntary administration in January, has been revived by Harry Hodge of Quicksilver Europe and Ksubi's distributor, Bleach. In a meeting last Wednesday, creditors decided to liquidate group liabilities and allow the union to go forward.
Reportedly, Ksubi had a better offer available but would have had to meet several additional conditions for the deal. About 30 potential offers were submitted to Dan Single and George Gorrow's brand, according to Ragtrader. That's a brow-wiping situation for Ksubi, but we bet Gorrow - who once explained his office wisdom as "sh*t f*cking happens" - is ready to take his 29 employees and move forward.

Imagine it, people: Soon this could look loose. Both Acne and Ksubi have confirmed that they'll be making their "skinniest jeans ever" for autumn. And Style.com says that's a double direct quote.
So in terms of autumn/winter trends, you can choose from skinny-mini denim, slashed leggings, regular leggings or thigh-high boots. What happened to Katie Holmes and her boyfriend jeans?
