If you're into fancy, experimental interfaces, Nikola Arežina and Ina Rančić perfectly executed this web based fashion collection showroom without the use of Flash. They also had good help from the beautiful clothes and photos. The color scheme is amazing.

Here's a designer clothing site from Serbia with some nice details in the navigation. Notice the way the items in the navigation become active as the images progressively are preloaded one after another. I'm not 100% in love with all the choices made in the design, but it looks stunning and has a slick implementation of various levels of navigation. Kudos to Nikola Arezina for pulling it off with such class.

Huh? Two Flash sites in a row. I must be crazy. Wrangler's latest campaign offering features some truly mesmerizing elements. Each photo is in fact an interactive video that may be played forward or backward. What's amazing about this is the fact that you pull on the clothes, and how this makes you feel. It just works perfectly. Via @inahill. (The downside with Flash sites like this one is, as always, the awful, constant 100% CPU usage.)

Discover the new Lacoste Collection by Christophe Lemaire. Fashion, sneakers, super slim fits, colorful styles, 60's inspired, etc. There's funky music and a lot of slow motion video to be had. As a campaign site for clothes, this site works really well. Cool stuff. Still, those kids don't seem like people I would enjoy hanging out with.

The Oslo based snowboard clothing line Whiteout has a stunning online presence. This is one of the most impressive all Flash sites I've seen in a long time. And it's filled with little easter eggs, which is nice ... as it's easter soon. E.g. try hovering over the little iPod or the watch, if you can find them. Site by Heydays while art direction was done in-house by Norrøna Sport.

Despite being an extremely heavy load for a site of its kind, and being a webshop made in Flash, I'm loving certain aspects of this site. First of all, it's unusual navigation just works. I immediately understood how to find a garment and take a closer look at it. The close-ups work great, with the alpha transparency and all. Too bad it's such a heavy load and that it isn't done with jQuery. Flash feels much slower and less responsive. Despite my Flash-bashing, however, this is a great and outstanding webshop. Site by Syrup. Via Computerlove™.

Perfect Fools makes Sebastien Foucan free run your text input as short video segments. A great little project that is seamlessly put together. The load isn't too heavy either, considering the amount of video transferred. Via The Designers' Monarchy.

Emptees is supposedly a place for the world's best t-shirt designers to showcase, browse, and talk about tee shirt designs. This site may be too simple for some of you graphics-hungry Photoshop lovers, but I'm personally in love with the use of photography, whitespace, the logo design, and of course the shirts. Design by Indie Labs. Via The big noob.

Cicatriz Clothing comes as a breath of Flash air (I crack myself up) from Berlin. At this webshop you can buy t-shirts and more, all carefully and tastefully designed. The interface of this all Flash website is what makes it stand out, however. Video is used to show off the products, and the shop is a complete, integrated Flash solution with no pop-ups or other annoying stuff that most other Flash shops are infested with. A fun and outstanding site.

Oilily is all about fashion. In fact it's a 'premium worldwide fashion label'. But if you're let down by the fancy words, don't worry. The site is beautiful and intricate in a refreshingly unique way.
