Martin Margiela
Yesterday my brother and I had a discussion on the relationship between the artist and their work. Should the produced work be viewed as an artistic statement exclusive from their own character or a subjective glimpse into their own humanity? We came to the fair-minded and simple conclusion that both options are possible. I spent almost my entire day thus far researching Martin Margiela, a...

Black Girl Dangerous: The Kreayshawn Complex:... →
blackgirldangerous:
by TextaQueen
Kreayshawn is a white girl rapper from Oakland, California who sloppily slings misogynistic, hedonistic rhymes and whose crew “White Girl Mob” throws about the n-word for extra charm. This post isn’t specifically about her, but more generally about cultural appropriation and…

Dior No More!
Raf Simons seriously should have stayed at Jil Sander if you ask me (which nobody is). During his time there he managed to bring the smart, tailored, and mature brand to a more youthful audience while maintaining it’s original integrity, no small feat for someone not designing under his own name. It is certainly not easy to design for a house like Christian Dior, and not too surprisingly,...

Fall is Coming!
As everyone knows, and I really want to start knitting again! I started going through old Vogues in my mind (a literal Vogue vault) and reminiscing about Fall 2007 when Giles did those giant knits! Images from the collection were in the September issue of the magazine and the particular photo shoot is really memorable to me because of that Junya jacket Coco Rocha was wearing!
Okay this Fall I...

I can’t decide if everyone else is crazy and therefore I am too or if I am the only crazy one.

Crumpled
The latest from CDG was not disappointing and seemed to mirror the same frustration apparent the last collection, only this time the route was different (albeit not entirely innovative or surprising). If last season Kawakubo felt like fashion was flat, 2-dimensional, this time around she has just wadded up the notions of clothing and threw them onto the runway. Literally. There were sleeves all...

Extortionate Artistry
Don’t buy into Givenchy’s elitist prices for gimmicks (pun intended)! Instead say fuck you to them, Kanye, and anyone else rich and stupid enough to buy those dog tees and buy my friend’s funnier version instead!
My roommate models!
Karma Loop people!

Like Dario Argento's Film Career
I don’t even know what to say about Yohji’s S/S 2013 collection. It’s just so sad. If this is the direction he is taking I would rather him retire now and quit while ahead. It is very difficult to find cohesion in the statements he was making, and difficult to even find statements for that matter. The collection was disjointed and, as much as it pains me to say this, tacky. There...

Holy Mole
So I got my first Comme des Garçons blouse. It was a very spiritual experience opening up the wrapping and pulling it out. It’s everything I wanted and more. It’s super old although I don’t know it’s vintage (i’m guessing 90’s) oh so cute. My friend and fashion stylist confidante saw this true treasure on etsy and texted me “there is CDG on etsy for 60...
