Okay, I don't agree with a lot of Patrice's views, but this was spot on.
YES.
I also do this as a graphic artist. You know, there's that stereotype of arts people as wearing a lot of black, austere haircuts, weird eyeglasses. But it friggin' works. You're projecting "I'm the authority on aesthetics." I've joked that when/if I make CD/partner, I'll graduate to an all-white wardrobe and clear…
There is no way to make this not sound horrible. But as a girl that has had this haircut for like... 5 years, it makes me sad. But I do love unisex, androgynous haircuts.
Ah, yeah, that's what I meant by a barely finished collection. I figured samples, and I know sometimes those are last minute jobs before various Fashion Weeks, right?
I'm not sure about fashion, I mainly have experience with product and food shoots. And those are pretty meticulous in their planning up front. Thumbnails, mood boards, etc. Really, it's only "mistakes" and minor color/levels tweaks in post if we can help it., unless it's something more fantastical.
As someone that works in design/art direction, but not fashion, sometimes I wonder if these shoots are done a little backwards. Sometimes it feels like the clothing collection is done (probably barely), but half the art direction is missing from the shoot until post. What I mean is that decisions on lighting, color…
Late to the party, so many feelings. Outside of this most recent controversy, I've found the show to be fascinating since season 1. There's so many intersections of race, class, age, gender, and different communities within the LGBTQ umbrella that's it's hard to sometimes pull out something like the use of a word, or…
I think this trend also borrows from the fact that the more generalized a human figure is, the more easy it is to relate to. Combined with the fact that the beauty idea (while it is still narrow), isn't nearly as narrow as it was during the beginnings of department stores, this makes sense. We've gone from the extreme…
Even his body language in this is enough to sell the fact that Janelle's version doesn't have the right mood, and is overproduced.
As a former inhabitant of the Pacific Northwest I could spend all day comparing and contrasting the subtle, yet important differences between Portland and Seattle bros.
So much gold. And now that I've looked up bulletproof coffee, my regular coffee at my desk is looking mighty disappointing.
All of these poor token people look like they have guns pointed at their heads juuuuust off screen.
Bourbon is to Phillip Glass, what scotch is to György Liegeti. We are kindred spirits. Get it? Spirits? Sigh.
Holy hell, are you me? Recent ex: "I told my shrink at the VA about you. I said you're great, you don't even need me!" He meant this as a compliment. Red flag. A red flag I willfully ignored with a laugh until his insecurity over that (money, apartment situation, career) eroded the relationship, and I was tired of not…
