As spring kicks into full swing, the creative spirit is stirring everywhere. We profile emerging shoe designer Chrissie Morris, who incorporates semi-precious stones and stingray skins into her footwear, and dig into the rich backstory of Virginia-based label Nostalgie. We continue to track fashion developments Down Under with a look at Bassike’s casual chic, and we detail an innovative marketing campaign coordinated by luxe Brazilian retailer Daslu. Finally, we chat with Behance founder Scott Belsky about how his site fuels creatives’ productivity.
