Lanvin Fall 2009

Fall 2009 Ready to Wear Lanvin collection.

And might I say that I have never seen a collection, which I have been quite so ready to wear.

The Photography of Akio

Photographer Akio (London via Tokyo via Kyoto) is the most amazing ever. The lighting brings out the anticipation of movement, when the only action in these narratives comes from the light particles, and everything else remains suspended.

The tranquil images seem a lot more elaborate than they actually are. Random objects clutter together and project some synergistic appeal: there's Winnie the Pooh, cocaine, the magic wand, the cyborg bunny and the old TV. Then there's the neon-lit gum-ball machine, the saran wrapped wheelchair, fluorescent lights, wigs, masks, dolls, scattered vintage childhood toys, plastic decorations, and the chaotic Beetle Juice-like arrangements of old furniture. Nothing seems to be particularly alive either. There is an implication of secret entrances and spooky symbolism, which I might be imagining. And there is definitely an Oxygen 8 keyboard midi controller present !!

The carousel pony wearing a dragon-goldfish mask looks quite natural nesting up on the tree branch, as it blankly admires the humanoid male mannequin being cradled by the wind. A little clown puppet is perched on another branch in the background. They look so comfortable that our logic wouldn't second guess their positioning, while our subconscious falls into their strange enchantments : )

"Please don't misunderstand us. We just want to make you happy!!!"

Trippple Nippples are an electronic music chick project out of Japan. I am currently superdigging RIP MEAT (Bestrack remix), which sounds kind of "Ready to Uff" Feadz -> Justice, and is so much funnn! The other songs sound like a rainbow-infused versions of Adult. Every song is about sucking on nipples, btw. Hot. & p.s. these costumes are otherworldly.

Maison Martin Margiela S/S 09

I like how these outfits conceal so much skin, and how ultraerotic the entire look is regardless, since the focus seems to be on how the body shape affects the material, rather than on the independent architecture of the clothing. The look still seems futuristic, maybe 'cause it's anonymous (like the internet) while simple and practical, for any of us that wish to practice this...

And I know the faceless, shiny, monster-vamp, shoulder pads look is old news (did i mention bondage?!), but as my dear friend Steven says, high fashion has a seven to ten year lifespan from the moment the clothes debut on the runway to the moment that the average consumer acquires access to them. Besides, I'm using this blog as a storage space for shit that I find to be wonderful, and as I've only begun, there's plenty of old news to post.
