I think that good styling is less appealing when it comes to selling a not so good product, but that it becomes particularly interesting in the case of streetstyle since it's used for personal purposes.Camillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04821745561347238069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212489257639255005.post-33203218348140076022012-10-25T22:15:39.450-04:002012-10-25T22:15:39.450-04:00my style has gone back to 1987. wore it then. i am...my style has gone back to 1987. wore it then. i am thinking about it now and finding different ways to wear it again. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04049943168027678461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212489257639255005.post-90936410098470312082012-10-03T05:08:52.112-04:002012-10-03T05:08:52.112-04:00I have been flipping through my old Vogues from th...I have been flipping through my old Vogues from the 90s and early 2000s as well as my magazine tear-outs. This was after I saw the new Vanessa Bruno show which reminded of a Chloe 2005 collection. I've since been looking at old Calvin Klein and Helmut Lang and realising what a big influence they were and how timeless many of their designs are. <br /><br />I also feel that they had a total vision as opposed to good styling; and that feels like a refreshing counterpoint to "street-style" which is largely about styling. That's what sets apart a designer like the duo at Valentino (just as an example) from Hedi Slimane, whose YSL debut depressed me. <br /><br />One is not better than the other. I think both together help me step back from all the noisy and trends and fanfare and somehow articulate what I like and feel energised by. <br /><br />Great post! I sometimes look though old pictures I saved from Garance Dore and Cafe Mode and The Sartorialist and I like how hindsight really separates the wheat from the chaff. linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00638024559737049131noreply@blogger.com
