COS magazine

拿到手還不敢相信。是免費雜誌。
COS又找到自家獨有的niche, 當人家找這找那做 cover girl, cover boy 或cover model 吸引你買本啦的時候。COS卻免費送給你, layout利落乾淨毫不花巧, 很工整的 typographic treatment, 最簡單卻收效最大的 duo tone 照片, 當然找來點石成金的Jop van Bennekom 來做美指設計不無關係。脅著Fantastic Man 及 The Gentlewoman 的一時無兩, 我看做免費catalogue式的壓力愈來愈大了。

Wear the best in your worst day ever

With Love

I am back.
With Love.

(un)Fashion

時裝不時裝, 從來沒情沒面。血淋淋的事實, 今朝是天子至高無尚, 下秒可能已為家奴,想走也要道歉連連。可是真正的天才(Talents)是買少見少, 這幾年時裝界就像中了咒似的, Isabella Blow 一走, Alexander McQueen自殺, Margiela退隱江湖, Hedi只拍照不做衣, Gallino出事, Carine出走French Vogue及到最近傳言Balmain的設計師Christophe Decarnin精神出了問題要去精神病院。時裝事, 時裝椅天天在變。又傳 Ricardo, Haider及Hedi三子將爭Dior新位。

Carine Roitfeld 在Style.com上以題為 The future of Fashion 對Dirk Standen說:
"I’m sure there is a lot who want to push me out of the way, because this is fashion. It’s never very faithful, you know, and people want change all the time. This is the purpose of fashion, so I don’t know what is going to happen with me. But my look is not going to change very much." 說得太好。

知否世事常變
變幻原是永恆

時裝的家, 不會為任何人而留
French Vogue 最後一期2011年3月號, 當作是一知時代的終結, 另一時代的開始
一切還看未來

The New Move

1947年, Christian Dior 的 New Look 曾顛倒眾生, 盡現美態, 是怒放而不是收斂, 是盡情是美麗, 是post-war也是新時代的開端。2011, 不知沒有了 Galliano 後的 Dior, 會是怎樣的一個光景呢? 一輪口舌之戰後, 是新天新地或是光輝不再, 還看Galliano那一筆怎畫怎寫了。
