One Industry Fits All?

2010-01-06T16:11:00.004-05:00

What's the difference between models, Crystal Renn and Jacquelyn Jablonski on the January 2010 cover of V Magazine? Not much. Just a few pounds and a couple inches-and it's actually refreshing. Thin is to model as expensive is to couture. One always seems to follow the other and with infamous Karl Lagerfeld who lost 90-pounds himself back in 2002, it's no wonder why. While so-called "flaws" and imperfections that defy conventional standards of beauty such as the wide-set eyes of Gemma Ward, freckled skin of Lily Cole, a large forehead or a hook nose like that of Linda Evangelista can set a model apart, weight is the deal breaker. The issue of V Magazine, which hits stands January 14th of 2010, re ignites the ongoing model-weight debate. In the editorial properly dubbed, "One Size Fits All", Renn and Jablonski are adjacent to one another, striking the same fierce pose, both rocking the same Versace top, Proenza Schouler skirt and shoes and Michael Kors necklace, as well as an array of colorful bangles. As for the result? Given their size difference, with Renn, at 5'9" and 36/31/41 measurements and Jablonski also 5'9" with 32/24/34 measurements, not as dramatic as one would think. Some might have to do a double-take, even questioning if they are the same model or if the photographs are photo-shopped. The striking effect lies in the absence of dramatic difference. Why do fashion magazines mainly showcase designer clothes (and models) that infinitely exceed the average budget and realistic lifestyle of most of their readers? Perhaps they're selling us an unattainable illusion- it certainly works-it's a multi-billion dollar industry. Regardless of the industry standard, it's refreshing to see a fashion magazine endorsing the thin and real sized models, both clad in hot, high-fashion clothes and looking equally stunning. While it can't be said for certain that V Magazine's display of curvy shapes will inspire a spike in future curvy model editorials, it most definitely makes a bold statement.

(Yohji, Y-3 Fall 2008)

Off from school today. I've been online for the past 3 hours. I find myself listening to the New Boyz, then felt like listening to Lights Out by Santogold, which brang me back to a memory of a myspace layout i used to have with a slideshow of Y-3 fall 2008 and Lights Out as my song. You know, when myspace was cool and not PostYourGhettoWhorePicsHere, USA. Then I went on style.com and looked up Y-3 fall 2008 again because I loved that show. Went on youtube and watched more Y-3, then the Related Videos on the right sucked me in and I found this amazing one I can't stop watching and then end up immersed in searching everything Yohji Yamamoto. That happens alot actually. I feel like I go on random paths throughout the internet and wind up finding something new that I become obsessed with for a few days. Before this it was Daria Werbowy. Even though I already knew who she was, I haven't seen her around for a while so it was sort of a re-visit and a re-obsession, if you will. Well, back to Yohji.

"Life isn't east and the moment you find out life is real, you are condemned to fight, to suffer."

So can we talk? I mean his clothes are fucking amazing. The jackets, the stripes, the pants, the bed hair, and Bianca, holyshit the white suit in the last picture is making me die, the hats, the feathers. Ah, nostalgia does such great things. The blonde in the first and fifth picture is the fucking lovely Marianne Faithfull. The blonde that he's with in the second pic is Carolina Herrera, he had a relationship with Jerry Hall, he's in a relationship with L'Wren Scott right now, and the rest of the pics are of his first wife Bianca. He gets around.

Jimmy Choo for H&M Second Look!

2009-09-21T15:19:00.006-04:00

(nymag) I have to say, I love the men's sort of motorcycle boots more than the women's shoes. The red and blue stilettos look a bit garish in my opinion. I find myself in question about the brouges in the third picture though. Are they women's or men's? Either way I'd have to get them. So, give me a fur gillet and we'll be best friends, the jewels and zebra print bag in the fourth picture are great, even though I hate zebra print, that bag is well done. Over all this collaboration is pretty good. I'm sure it will sell out in no time but it's nothing we haven't seen. It's all been done but obviously the masses will jump on this just because it says Jimmy Choo on the tags. Which is, understandable.

These are from her Red Label for Spring 2010 and I'm dying for that pink suit. Her clothes honestly bring me to another world whenever I see them. Her whole being, the hair, and wrinkles, the wise years, the stripes, the colors, the trees. Who dosen't love Vivienne Westwood? She's the coolest 68 year old ever, dosen't give a fuck what you think, wants to save the rainforest, makes what she wants, will protest the hell out of your ass, revolutionized the punk scene and wears 5 inch heels. Love her.

At Mark Fasts' show he had a mix of thin girls and thicker girls. I'm all for plus size, (go ahead ladiesss) but the clothes on these girls literally look like they're going to bust at the seams, you see every bulge and bump. It dosen't make the clothes or model look flattering and it's almost as if the thicker models are trying to fit into the thinner models clothes, no? Thoughts?

So theres the people who are going to say Marc's show was amazing simply because it's Marc Jacobs, reguardless of whether they actually liked it or not. Then there are the people who are going to be striaght up, not mess with the bullshit and tell you what they really think. That's me. Alot are not responding well to Marc's collection this season but I kind of love it. The bags were insane as usual, the fabrics, the shoes were very innovative and I guarentee they're going to be the next gladiator. All the ruffle and curl details were gorgeous, love the hair pieces, looks number 2,4,5,19,30,31,36,39,40,43,48,50, and 51 I'm dying for, as well as Irina Kulikova's legs, and I rarely like an all blue outfit but Marc changed my mind, (like he always does) with look number 34. Frankly, look number 26 the green that Karlie Kloss is wearing does look a bit "bag lady" but it's cool bag lady on a 17 year old model. I mean, that's Marc and I love it. It reminds me of My Fair Lady with Audrey Hepburn as Eliza. Honestly I think that if he would've just not done those skinny belts under the bust over the jackets, the reaction to the collection might've been a bit different. Granted he could've done belts all he wanted but just not under the bust like that, he should've done embellished belts that weren't so thin. The thin belts look like they're fighting for their lives not to un-buckle over the jackets. He should've called me for styling assistance. wink. Whatever, I love Marc and his clothes. I did a post on his new fragrance Lola in the August archives on your right, the post is called Marc Jacobs Loves Lola, it's amazing.

I can't imagine what horrors they'll do to make these "wearable" but I don't even want to think about it. These are just insane. Major. Amazing. PAYLESS.
