University Work - Eccentric animals collide with fashion

We're fully aware of the current happenings. These alluring newest found creatures down under (precisely the twilight zone) left many highly intrigued. The point is, soon enough, these fascinating animas may just collide with fashion. They have taken so many by surprise, so who isn't to say current designers or somebody accredited new in the creative industry won’t base their next collection and thereafter on these species?

In retrospect, it isn't very hard to envisage the futuristic grotesque yet chic garment draped around models made from the likes of Alexander Mcqueen, Vivienne Westwood or perhaps Chanel - who may want subtract elegance and instead add a touch of edge; among other British and International designers. After all Fashion is just an ''innovation'' right?- Actress Katharine Hepburn once said “It would be a terrific innovation if you could get your mind to stretch a little further than the next wisecrack”. Nevertheless who isn’t to say many innovators will not try to grab the first chance to smash together a design hinted with these strange new animals for a touch. Picture this: A shear fabric draped around a model, her garment implied of the sea cucumber as she sashays onward. Would it be regarded as exquisiteness or plain odd?

The photograph below on the left is of the beloved Alexander Mcqueen 2008 Spring ready-to-wear collection, on the right lies a bizarre image of one of the thousands found animal. Now combine both and what do you get? Indeed, brilliance I hope.

( I'm unsure why but blogger won't allow me to upload the full page of microsoft word onto here)

Here they are:

ELECTRIC TWIST

I'm ashamed that I have to yet update my blog. I've been meaning to do it although my laptop is semi-broken therefore it's been precisely difficult. I also am under the weather in addition to having limited time with the tremendous amount of work I have to do. On that note, I have a couple of assignments that I think are rather interesting so I shall upload it this week. Hopefully It'll compensate for my noted ( I hope) absense.

Vintage bubbly dreams. I'll be back tomorrow. Bisoux.

There's nothing like waking up to the wind-up bird chirping outside of your window, Karen O's soothing voice and your fingers grasped on the deadly cigarette you choose to inhale so sweetly. Perfectly wondrous times. Perhaps I should correct myself and actually announce it's the afternoon! This friday revolves on my being able to sleep in late - due to no lectures. How content am I? That's a change. I will also refrain from procrastinating today, well, technically blogging is procrastination itself but to each his own.

Supposedly I believe this is my newest blog, without a doubt, I had major trouble attempting to make this blogspot profile. Here's the thing: I created this amazingly written first post but for an apparent reason it saved incorrectly. I gather you're all following me?! That said, this is a terrible starting point. Well you've got to hand it for me for trying! Monster doesn't seem to care though - he scratches me ever so viciously every five minutes (Pardon me while I move his sleepy tuxedo face away from the keyboard). I'm utterly tres sorry. For now all I've got to say is that I'm hoping this will become a weekly thing, where I come to have wonderful conversations with fellow blogposters and therefore unfold what is on my mind onto geek-chic-tastic blog. It being mostly fashion, news articles, all-things-vintage, I'm currently obsessed with vintage knitwear - I bought this alluring peacock-ish coloured oversized jumper made out of cotton and it happens to be the highlight of my week. Some may call it 'blind love', I call it 'true love'. I shan't get further off subject, so moreover, I may or may not post some of my university projects among other mundane and insane complexed things of my life. Did I mention I'm currently studying fashion journalism? It's pretty overwhelming.Now how was that for a two minute intro? (don't hate me.)


By the way I really am currently fascinated with cloche hats. Fashion most definitely became a revolution in the 20's where designers innovations commenced thereafter. Precisely, Molyneaux had dazzling garments and accessories; including the cloche hat. After watching Angelina Jolie in changeling I'm considering investing in one -I'll let you know how the hunt goes.





I'm hoping for a rendezvous with all of you at some point.
Grand bisous à vous tous! Oh and vintage dreams, my darlings!
