Volcom_five_speed_fury_swim_2010_bikini_model_sci_fi_film_retro_60s.jpg

Always super creative, Volcom Swim have made a genius 60s sci fi-inspired mini movie to promote their 2010 bikini collection - including one gorgeous, girl-crush worthy model, aka Gemini Leasure.

The return of Volcom's Miss Mod, for spring they've looked to the designer trend for vintage space glam - think Little Boots  crossed with Emma Peel, on holiday in Hawaii. Or, as they've described it 'rock and roll vs. fun in the sun'. Watch the video after the jump...

Superpost: Roxy Spring/Summer 2010 collections - US vs Europe

roxy_lookbook_spring_summer_2010_collections__US_versus_Europe.jpg

Roxy's Spring Summer 2010 collections are slowly trickling for sale online - they've also published part of the US Lookbook on Flickr too. But with items crafted to suit markets in different continents, it looks like there could be quite a difference between items sold stateside and in Europe.

Admittedly not everything is online yet, but it looks like each cross-atlantic photoshoot reflects the local style of their continent's HQ: the US is all laid-back chic with a 70s-leftover-hippy vibe (super Southern Californian); Europe is more 60s-influenced, feisty French Riviera glam - ala Biarritz. 

But which do you prefer? I'm feeling the slicker, Sienna Miller-esque, more grown-up threads from our Cali cousins, but check out loads of pics then let us in know after the jump... beware: it's a big one!
