Jeremy Gutsche and TrendHunter.com were featured in GLAMOUR Magazine (Italy) this month. In the article, Jeremy profiled rental culture and recycled garbage turned into fashion. Somehow a colored blackberry pearl snuck its way into the article, which isn't really on the cutting edge anymore, but overall the feature looked great.
