We are all born artists: a collective of painters, poets, musicians, actors, illustrators, photographers, builders, designers.

We are all creative individuals, capable of seeing past what is, to what can be.

Here on Converse Blog we want to hear about your inspiration and shine the light on your work.
Share it here.

You’re it. You’re up. You’re on.

Summer equals festivals, and this year we will be at three great events in Europe: Melt!, Lowlands and Rock en Seine. Come join us.

Start your webcam and create your own huge paper head for the summer. Save and share the image, and print on the thickest paper you have. A4 is fun, A3 is great, A2 is awesome. Cut, fold and put it together with scissors and glue. Have fun!

Originally from Spain, Pelayo Diaz studies fashion design at Central Saint Martin’s in London and is already somewhat of a fixture in the fashion blogosphere. When he started modifying regular t-shirts with safety pins last year giving an old punk trend an updated look, everyone took notice.

Zoe Jenkin started Double magazine while studying Fashion Communications at university. It grew from a university project into a full-time hobby and she now publishes a new issue online every month. She gets her friends in London and Manchester to help style and shoot photo spreads while others contribute interviews and articles on themes from fashion to music to cinema.

Lucy Bridge is a 20-year-old make-up artist who loves painting on the whole face, not just the eyes and lips. She has done make up for designers at London Fashion Week and also on shoots that have been included in various magazines like I.D.

One weekend a year Ferropolis in Germany is overrun by over 20.000 party people. Last weekend it was that time again: Time for Melt!

What do you get when you put KiD CuDi, Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend and Bethany Cosentino of Best Coast together in the studio? We were curious as well. That’s why Converse invited them to collaborate on a new track.

When you look at Etienne for the first time, you may think this quite good-looking guy is probably an insolent boy who just enjoys partying and waking up late. Etienne’s personality is much more complex. The 22-aged boy grew up in a fashion workshop, where he spent most of his afternoons after school with his godmother.

Giulio Rojer Ghirardi is a 22 years old super busy photographer from the beautiful city of Parma. Even if he’s busy enough graduating from college, these days you can still find him on pretty much every single cool Italian fashion magazine. We like his work so much, and we believe it’s so full of talent and passion, we are positive he’s going to be amazingly famous some day soon. That’s why we met him to chit chat about his super promising career.
