Occasionally my twisted, envious, bitterness towards Lady Gaga morphs itself into full on LOVE/ADMIRATION/BUMMING. (sometimes you have to just accept these things. AND LETS BE HONEST, SHE IS BETTER THAN I WILL EVER BE AND WILL WEAR BETTER CLOTHES THAN I WILL EVER WEAR.) so i watched this video and was like WHHHAAAAAAAT? because i liked it.
WHY CANT ALL OF HER MUSIC AS FIERCE AS THIS? (actually i did kind of bum Bad Romance AND Telephone. IM CHOKING ON MY HYPOCRISY.) whatever. ANYWAY, i think, style wise, i liked this phase best - the whole teacup/Jeremy Scott THING (although i do like the translucent Rachel Barrett dresses that she is constantly rocking). I think at this point in her career i started REALLY hating her (mix of jealousy and i was still reeling from how shite poker face/just dance is/was. LIFE IS NOT FAIR. WHY ARE THESE CLOTHES NOT MINE? wow just realised how superficial i am. MEH. i have time later in life to be moral.
YUM.
P.S. I just realised LOOK AT THE DRESS^^^^
IT IS FULLY QUILTED (SO IS MY O.A.P COAT....ARGHARGH I AM JUST SUBCONSCIOUSLY FOLLOWING HER EVERY CHOICE. IM SUCH A SHEEP.)
So. Yeah. Gareth pugh has been rumoured to be the designer to take over the McQueen brand. AND THAT IS COOL WITH ME. (he might venture into COLOURED CLOTHING... although his monochrome is his 'thing' and is fierce.... BUT COLOUR ---- @LadyinLeopard YOU GET ME)
... uhm ignore the 'skiing nun' article beneath it. weird.
ANYWAY
Im actually really happy that the brand is continuing and im hoping it will become a platform for new faces and collaborations.
I knew this blog was missing something, so now is the perfect oppurtunity to fill the void with shitloads of pictures of GARETH (and his work..... LOVE HIM).
If you didn't know him already then youll probably recognise the celebrities that have worn pugh so far: pour example, Lady gaga wore the above triangular masterpiece somewhat pictured above^ , beyonce wore shit loads of pugh for the 'diva' vid and her EMA performance and daphne guinness is always impartial to a bit of Gareth. AREN'T WE ALL, DAHLING. (ugh. i hate myself sometimes.)
But LOOK. A gareth video for his fall/winter 2009 (he didn't do a regular runway show because he thought it didn't best show off his work). Although, as previously mentioned- beyonce is a fan, and her vid for 'sweet dreams' looks very similar to this video. HIGHLY SUSPISH. looks like someone took some 'inspiration' form the PUGH. Not like i blame her....
Just a online editorial by dazed which had me at 'raw edges and powdery textures'. LIKE LIKE LIKE.
I see these things AND I JUST WANT THEM. I need to get sewing, I need to get some SKILL. I seriously thought that as soon as I got a sewing machine, I would be wapping out new outfit after new outfit BUT ALAS disappointment. ANYWAY, I HAVE BLOODY ARTWORK TO DO. peace out.
i am a boy, i am a girl. i am human, i am animal. i am a book of contradictions, a blank film. i am a noisy silence. moonbeam sunshine. i am.
i rediscover myself when i see the back of my head.
Fashion fills me with happy fuzzy luminosity. i especially love british designers.
i love britain period. i love the eccentricity and the monarchy, the anarchy and the culture and the rich history and the aggressively sarcastic humour. its my home.
i love music. music is more than it seems. i listen to it before i go to sleep and it creates two separate forces on my body. my eyes orbit in one circle and my hips orbit in another until my body breaks and unravels like glittering yards of lace. music is more than it seems.
language interests me. the way it works and the way we can work it.
Logic is logic. no fun.
this blog is my digital reverie. my robotic introspection.
