If a 100-year-old underwear factory in Minnesota seems an unconventional starting point for a fashion icon that has represented Americana since 1955 and is still worn all over the world today, blame Pete the Penguin. And perhaps a Whiskey or two.
Abbot Pederson was an ambitious salesman who worked for the Munsingwear undergarment factory in Minneapolis. On a sales trip to NYC in 1955, finding himself with some time to kill before a flight home, he decided to wait out his time in a local bar. Stumbling out to find a taxi stand, he took a wrong turn down a Manhattan street and found himself in front of a display of stuffed penguins in a taxidermist's window. Before he knew it, he had bought one of the penguins, named him Pete, and was soon enjoying cocktails with him on the flight back to Minneapolis.
At some point during the flight, Pederson's enthusiasm got the better of him -- and Pete the Penguin's head was knocked off. A seductive stewardess whose attention Pederson had been enjoying throughout the flight gently helped him remove his tie, then wrapped it around the penguin's neck. As she did so, she joked that such a lucky, dapper bird surely deserved to be immortalized -- maybe even embroidered on a shirt similar to the one Pederson was wearing. Little did she know...

In the late 80’s the youth culture of Britain had a number of genres all with their own distinct style, punks, new romantics, skinheads, goths and mods as for everyone else the choice of casual wear was limited. Roger Wade founded the Boxfresh Clothing brand in 1989 initially operating from a stall on Greenwich Market, the brand is first and foremost a British street brand.
The whole concept of streetwear is dressing from the trainers up and owes a lot to the early hip-hop scene in New York where for the first time trainers, singlets and tracksuits were being worn for fashion and not as sportswear. The name Boxfresh was borrowed from hip-hop speak and means ‘fresh out of the box’. Initially Wade sourced classic sports, college gear and work wear from the USA, and also began putting customised prints on t-shirts and sweatshirts for sale at the London markets.
By 1990 Boxfresh streetwear fashion was available in Bond of Soho, Duffer of St.George, American Classics and Oi Polloi in Manchester and Hip in Leeds. In 1992 Boxfresh were at the forefront of the craze for workwear fashion in Europe. Boxfresh today remains a force in British streetwear and urbanwear by sticking to their mission of being true to their roots. One of the most talented designers to create garments for Boxfresh is Zakee Shariff.
So what are you waiting for? Check out Boxfresh at Fashicon today!

1981: Jessica Alba is born
1987: Gordon Gekko makes a phone call
It was Michale Douglas, as Gordon Gekko in Wall Street, who first made the cell phone cool.

It’s one of the great fashion mysteries of all time, but one that is set to continue for many years to come I’m sure, and one that will no doubt end up trapping more confused soles than ever under its spell. So what is this great fashion mystery – just why do designers create clothes that don’t actually look good on anyone?!?!
Fashion trends used to be dictated by royalty and the upper class, but for the present day the reverse is true, as designers now mostly look to the streets to find inspiration. Here in lies the problem – as what looks cool on your average 18 year old student, does not look quite so hot when worn by your average 45 year old software engineer who has no exercise routine to speak of and unlimited access to the vending machine!?!?
Take these designs for example; the outfits are only really appropriate if you are travelling from a cricket match to your eccentric grandmother’s tea party by scooter!?! I mean come on – do you know anybody that could pull off these outfits?!?! It is always worth remembering that choosing a designer brand is no guarantee of looking good!?!
Luckily, here at Fashicon we can pick the wheat from the chaff for you as everything we stock has been carefully selected by hand to bring you the best mix of the latest trends to ensure you always make a good impression!!
Why not take a look at our website at www.fashicon.co.uk – unless you have a fancy-dress party to attend of course!?!
Fashicon found it quite humorous how words can reflect the values of society at a given moment in history. Focusing on ‘Trousers’, here is how the word evolved over 500 years:
breeks 1552- · strosser 1598-1637 · strouse 1600-1620 · brogues 1615-1845 · trouses 1679-1820 · trousers 1681- · inexpressibles 1790- · indescribables 1794-1837 · etceteras 1794-1843 · kickseys/kicksies 1812-1851 · pair of trousers 1814- · ineffables 1823-1867 · unmentionables 1823- · pantaloons 1825- · indispensables 1828- · unimaginables 1833 · innominables 1834/43 · inexplicables 1836/7 · unwhisperables 1837-1863 · sit-down-upons 1840-1844 · pants 1840- · sit-upons 1841-1857 · unutterables 1843; 1860 · trews 1847- · sine qua nons 1850 · never-mention-ems 1856 · round-me-houses 1857 · round-the-houses 1858- · unprintables 1860 · stove-pipes 1863 · terminations 1863 · reach-me-downs 1877- · sit-in-'ems/sitinems 1886- · trousies 1886- · strides1889- · rounds 1893 · rammies 1919- · longs 1928-
You can’t help laughing your unmentionables off at the very thought that the prudish Victorians were so easily embarrassed?!? This 19th Century word, and others like “unwhisperables” and “never-mention-ems”, reflects Victorian prudery. Back then, even trousers were considered risque, which is why there were so many synonyms. People didn't want to confront the brutal idea, so found jocular alternatives.
At Fashicon there is nothing to whisper about, we say it like it is, like the fabulous: Farah Vintage Mills Hopsack Trouser, Fila Vintage Frankie Track Pants and Aem'kei Bustor Pants all available from www.fashicon.co.uk. Visit our site today and see what we have for you - we don’t even mind if you mension-em to your friends?!?
Lost.
The best place for you to find an Original Penguin is at www.fashicon.co.uk?!?
Not only does Fashicon bring you only the very best Original Penguin clothing, but also at incredible prices?!?
Original Penguin is a brand that well deserves the name, having built up a keen following way back in the Fifties, with golf buddies Arnold Palmer, Bob Hope and Bing Crosby all joining the polo club. Sure enough, Original Penguin has stayed true to its heritage this season, counting Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp among the fans of its on-trend striped polos and assorted retro attire that looks as good whether you're on the course or in the clubhouse. By the way.. you can pick these up at www.fashicon.co.uk?!?
The famous Original Penguin logo has an interesting story behind it. As history tells us, one of Munsingwear’s salesmen spotted a flock of penguins in the window of a New York taxidermist – and on what seems like a lark, bought one of the stuffed birds. And before long, "Pete" the penguin became the official mascot and logo of golf shirts. Its first shirt – the 1955, was an instant golf classic, first to feature an "action gusset" or a ribbed slice of fabric on the underarm to avoid rips during even the most enthusiastic golf swing.
In 2003, an Original Penguin was recreated by a group of people who love great style and smart clothing. Today's fashionistas have evolved this legend and made it their very own. Fashicon is proud to bring Original Penguin to people with such great intellect, style and humour?!?
If you tell someone that something is free, they immediately start looking for the catch. After all, the words of wisdom “there is no such thing as a free lunch” have been proven true for many people throughout life.
As any economist can tell you, cost really doesn’t only come down to how much money you have to hand over to get something. There are additional costs, like inconvenience and time spent doing something.
Time is a big factor in many free offers. Companies want a bit of your time in exchange for their free products. Have you ever taken advantage of one of those “free weekend vacation” offers in which you received free accommodation in a beach house in exchange for suffering through a long presentation and sales pitch?
Convenience is the other cost involved with many freebies. Time and convenience go hand in hand in some cases – it may not be especially convenient to fill out form after form simply because it is time consuming, but convenience takes another hit from freebies in the form of spam email. Often, signing up for a freebie can land you on a spam email list, and for some people, getting tons of spam is so inconvenient that they would rather pay full price.
At Fashicon we believe that the freebie is in the eye of the beholder. You have to decide what you are willing to put up with in order to get a free product. We respect our customer's time and want to make their shopping experience as convenient as possible!
