if you take out a subscription to vogue right now you get a year of their archive. i mean their entire run -- from 1892 onwards is digitized. i'm tempted to do it just for that! to go through editorials from the 20s? SWOON.

Dimitri was with DJ Shadow and other artists from the lable Moving Shadow, that was in Austin TX so, that was as chic as it was getting ;) I wasnt familiar with him at the time, this was in the late 90's, and so hearing what he produced and ordinarily spun was a shocker.

$1575 for some picture books ?!?
thats where all these kids Prada money is going.

^i love how casual this looks, the way the skirt is so bunched and clumpy, heavy, transparent and light at the same time, what does the back of the jacket do? does it cover her butt lol i wanna see now...the leather and that sheer stretchy material(forgot the term, i have some actually;-) i guess helps create that density illusion along with the few sharp lines and long curves, very nice.

thats a tricky photographer too!
lol

what is she holding there?!?

haaha i dont have chiffon.

im thinking of some cheap stuff, a 2 way polyester stretchy knit fabric.


hmm, the edges like that make it too tech and goth for me, im stuck on the madame gres type design approach stuff, the classic and crafted, not as futuristic stem punk - personally. still looking though, so well done, that model is beautiful....
:)

this is the last fabric i bought, not sure what the material is but it is nice, actually feels like a thin soft type of canvas.

i really like these, they remind me of colors often used in India and Vedic culture but pop art, mineral and natural dye pastel tones.

David Simons is replacing John G @ Dior, since he's resigned at Jil Sander to make room for... Jil Sander.

thoughts?
 
^ o0o, its official like a referee with whistle. i was sorta hoping it would be haider ackermann, he woulda been a great fit at dior. but raf is definitely the more exciting choice.

i hear ya pip, when it comes to the "goth" influence there's a thin line, cross it and it definitely goes into a more "costume-y" look. nice madame gres designs especially like the middle silhouette. and sick spikes.

there's a viktor and rolf documentary http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1694575/ can stream it from amazon for $2.00 :D

let's wish marc a happy birthday

lol happy bday and gooodnight mark

As far as goth goes though*****;-)
that is perfect craftsmanship.

Viktor and Rolf are pretty interesting! and $2 sounds reasonable, probably learn a lot too. the Dutch, they can not help but be so technical about everything can they, amazing work.

Kenickie: all i know about Dior is that is that i love everything they put out, and they are always in trouble...

john g should know not to make disparaging remarks about jews if he wants to keep his job

even rappers know not to make such a faux pas

because i'm totally into game of thrones this season, i found a nice little tumblr called game of style. i love the costumes in this show, but it's nice to see anyone get the couture treatment. my favourite character is Asha Greyjoy, the only daughter of Balon Greyjoy, King of the Iron Islands, the kraken! she leads the kraken fleet of ships, and is posed to take over her father's throne, despite her handicap (vagina). she's a total badass bitch. this is her:

and some of the couture given to her:
