The Killer's Brandon Flowers to make a fashion line at Walmart?

10-28-2005-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.

Ugggh. This guy is such a douche! I just thank God that Canada doesn't have any K-Marts anymore.
