4 interviews

it’s basically another fashion thing but of the interesting kind. it was posted on style.com over the past few weeks and it’s about the future of fashion, naysayers will say that fashion deserve to die, ok we got it…
whatever, asking about it’s future to 4 insiders on a commercial, photographic or trends point of view seems relevant.
there is 4 interviews including, robert duffy, olivier zahm, hedi slimane and cathy horyn. and it worth having a look, some interesting things are said. by pp’

mulholland drive x moscot



passed by moscot on delancey few days ago and i saw those weird extra bold glasses in the window. i was really surprised (in a good way) when they told me they were the glasses adam kesher a.k.a actor justin theroux wore in david lynch’s mulholland drive. it’s based on a vintage french frame that they remade for the movie and decided to issued some for fun. so of course it’s not the obvious pair of trendy glasses but at the same time it’s not the easiest choice either. and that’s what i like about it. that being said the 300 made, are not sold out yet (and the movie was not released yesterday…) by pp’

balenciaga blacklists french vogue

hilarious fashion gossip of the moment is that french vogue was recently ‘blacklisted’ from attending the balenciaga show in paris this week for three possible reasons: 1) carine roitfeld was naughtier than we ever imagined, and loaned a requested balenciaga sample to maxmara (a brand she consults for), 2) because balenciaga designer nicolas ghèsquiere was unimpressed by the firing of bestie marie amelie sauvé, or 3) because carine refused to remove unflattering photos of ghèsquiere from facebook. some people never really graduate from highschool i suppose. by kl

margiela without the man

for being the first season without martin margiela doing the designing himself, the fall 2010 collection was still very much in his spirit. the crazy fur “cages” seem like a direct evolution of previous seasons hair coats. (i seem to recall seeing something very similar at the fever ray concert last fall…) and the quirky dimensions continue – this time the house redefined the waist. so unexpected and surprisingly chic. by kv

yeh it’s just that kind of a day

this is sort of like… one of those uber fancy parties you end up in… and everyone you talk to is bitching about something or another (yes myself included). i saw it and i just had to smile. available for just $64, yet another reason to be unhappy.

turns out of course it has nothing to do with that, it was a phrase, or so i learned, that was refering to technology and how its made us all more miserable… hell, i agree lets bitch about that at least anyway. by uh

some sunshine on a cloudy day – scout & catalogue by breanna musgrove

what does one do when they are an overworked and overstressed creative professional? why, they move to the estados unidos mexicanos. usually people sleep, read, tan and possibly sip some tequila, but when you can’t help but start your own product line during your escape you know it’s in your blood. although it’s always too few and far between crossing paths, the creator of scout & catalogue is one of my favorite people, and here you can see why. you can find these hand crafted products of love at on etsy.com. by kl
