Shoe envy
Photos from Jazzi McG
Oh my god, this is the most envious I’ve ever been of someone who took advantage of a sample sale that I did not. And the worst part is that I knew well in advance that it was going to happen too but I convinced myself, “NAHHH why would you need to go to a Phi sample sale? You don’t even wear Phi!”
WELL IF I HAD GONE, I COULD BE WEARING SOME PHI RIGHT NOW.
FW 2010 shows, part two
I’ve been pretty “meh” about the New York shows. I barely liked anything. The things I do like are — surprise, surprise — clean classics that are styled amazingly together with other pieces, and outfits that have a pop of color.
3.1 Phillip Lim
I expected some stunning shit from Phillip Lim because his show last season was easily my favorite, but this was … not so great. There was way more bad than good and that just doesn’t make for a very good collection.
Also, another label I can’t ever seem to get into: Proenza Schouler. I just don’t get it, man. Yet another season that doesn’t help me understand their hype. I love their accessories, but their clothes are just so underwhelmingly normal and doesn’t justify the hype. A ton of celebrities carrying your one really popular bag really shouldn’t equate to a freakish cult following …
This is a plead
Dear two dudes who have the lofty and great profession of being YG’s only stylists,
Can we stop styling while tripping on acid? Is it just too hard to stop throwing all the shit you found at the bottom of your draw onto a piece of clothing? I get that it was really cool and refreshing when you first put dolls together into a circle formation and deemed it a “bracelet” and then let CL wear it on stage, but maybe we should stop at one toy-strung-bracelet.
I know that you guys (or one of you guys) went to Central Saint Martins for ~fashun~ and ~design~ but can we stop with this shit? Can we stop trying so hard?
