LOOKBOOK.nu: collective fashion consciousness.

This website is bloody excellent. Daniel told me about it last week and I am obsessed already. It is invite only (of course I got invited!) and featured a bunch of kids in various states of dress showing off their look.

Power to the people!

Madonna, love, have a little grace

She should have stopped after the surgery she had to coincide her last album!

The cheek implants. The industrial chemical peels. The Tight lift! Her eyebrows are half way up her forehead now.

I'm a little disappointed...

Circus - A step too far?

PhotobucketPhotobucket

The fashion industry is a funny thing isn't it. I don't know how trends start really, but it kinna annoys me how something comes up and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. I don't really know, either I am subconsciously being manipulated by the media (most likely) to like a certain style, or I have some amazing foresight into the whole trend spotting ting (prob less likely).

So last year I saw this wee clown puppet when I was in Europe. It was Picasso-blue period-esque with a cool ruff and a wee jump suit. Proper clown-age! So I grew a slight obsession with this clown and his clothes and started designing clothes and styling photo shoots based on this circus stuff....

Jump to AW '08 and every chump and his monkey has circus themed things. Britney Spears album 'Circus', Take that album 'The circus', Pink's Album 'Funhouse'. Eh...WIT?!? Why so many!!! And then to topshop...

Enjoy. (Sorry its taken me so long Heather!).

Ignore the last post...

Bugger that!

Ok so unfortunately the Festival has been moved to MARCH 7th? I think. Anyway, that's better as I have 4 assignments including a dissertation due for Feb 13th (its a Friday!) and its a lorra lorra work!

But i will re post a new poster soon. I'm also gonna post pics of the art in process so you can see the stages of my collection. I'm totally excited as all my fabric came through the other day...including some gold lame...woooo!

I just bought Grace Jones new album, and I have to say after 19 years of waiting (I had good taste as a child) it does not disappoint. William's Blood, the new single, is fucking fantastic. We <3 grace. Oh and come to her gig in January as well! Only UK tour - unbelievable!

The mourning of polaroid

A collective tear was wept at the news that Polaroid would stop producing the instant film that made them so popular (who evens owns a digital Polaroid camera?!?).

So before I left the States, I bought up a load of packs of film at Walgreens and B&H...for like $10 for a 10 pack (!) ... BUT the other day when I was 3 pics into my 10 pack I clicked the shutter and...nothing...the battery went flat!

I had two options. Open the pack ruin the film and put a new one in or save it and open it in a protective dark room and use them with my brownie box cam. I desparately tried for the latter, but unfortunately light got in and I had 7 undeveloped exposed slides.

I decided to mess around a wee bit and mashed the emulsion in a bunch to make shapes and pictures. Unfortunately it turned out pretty shit. So I did illustrations on them.

The End. Enjoy.
