After discussion with Lorraine yesterday, she suggested the final look of Coperni's show at Paris fashion week last week as an example of disposable or temporary fashion. I found this interesting, but I'm not sure if it's truly "temporary".

The dress is made with Fabrican, a spray on fabric created by Dr. Manel Torres at the London Bioscience Innovation Centre. It is comprised of fibres like keratin, mohair, cotton, wool and nylon suspended in an aerosol. When sprayed the fibres bond together, forming a "second skin" appearance, with a suede-like texture. Interestingly to my research, they advertise themselves as an "environmentally friendly material"- it uses non volatile organic compounds, has no ozone-depleting substances, and the company has a policy of reducing reliance on overseas suppliers, reducing their carbon footprint. This implies biodegradability- or temporality.

The performance itself is an obvious reference to Alexander Mcqueen's spring 1999 show, in which a dress is spray painted by robots in a similar marriage between fashion and science.

But are these works temporary? In my opinion, the art here isn't so much about the dresses themselves but the spectacle of their creation. Both were the closing piece in huge fashion shows, and were a real performance both visually and in terms of their melding of art and science. In that sense, they are definitely temporary art- the exact emotions were only truly felt by people in that room on that day. However, such is the impact of these performances and temporary emotions, that the dresses themselves have become important, and permanent, artefacts of fashion history. McQueen's dress has been displayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and I am sure Coperni's will be treated with similar reverence. The temporary art of performance creates permanent physical reminders.

Audrey Hepburn being fitted by Hubert de Givenchy for her film Funny Face, 1956. Photographed by David Seymour.

Audrey knew of Givenchy's reputation - she followed fashion with the same intensity that some sports fans devote to baseball. In fact, Hubert had first come to her attention two years earlier, when he was still an apprentice at the house of Schiaparelli, and she was in the South of France filming the light European comedy Monte Carlo Baby.

Her heart raced. Eight years before, in Holland during the war, she had been wearing homemade clothes, and now she was about to enter the rarified world of haute couture, where an embroidered blouse cost $3,000. It was almost too much to imagine.

It was time. Audrey was nervous about meeting Givenchy but forced herself past her fear. She straightened her shoulders and lifted her head, pulling herself up from the base of her spine as learned in ballet class, making herself appear taller than her five foot seven inches. A doorman pushed open the heavy glass door to the atelier. "Mademoiselle?" Roman Holiday would not be released in America for a month, so Audrey could walk the streets of Paris - or anywhere, for that matter - unrecognized. She smiled at the doorman and stepped inside. The air was hushed, calm with the fragrance of full-blown white lilies. Surely nothing bad could ever happen there.

'I'm here to see Monsieur Givenchy, please."

"Qui, Mademoiselle," the doorman said, and motioned for her to go upstairs. With a short skip, Audrey took the steps two at a time.

Darting up the marble stairs, Audrey had no way of knowing that this seemingly fated fashion meeting with Givenchy almost didn't take place. At first she had considered Cristobal Balenciaga to design her French costumes for Sabrina, but no one, least of all Gladys de Segonzac, married to the head of Paramount's Paris office, who arranged Audrey's trip to Paris, had the audacity to disturb him close to the showing of his collection. Indeed, the loyalty of Balenciaga's followers was so absolute that Mrs. Paul Mellon took to her bed for two weeks, literally, when he announced he was closing his studio in 1968.

Then, Audrey suggested, what about Hubert de Givenchy? Mme. de Segonzac smiled. An excellent idea! It turned out she was a good friend of Hubert's, and offered to make the introduction. Segonzac then called Givenchy and implored him to meet with the young actress. Although he was rushing to prepare his own collection, Givenchy agreed, "One day, someone told me that Miss Hepburn was coming to Paris to select some clothes for her new film. At the time I had never heard of Audrey Hepburn. I only knew of Katharine Hepburn," he remembers. When introduced to Audrey, Givenchy graciously his his disappointment. "My first impression of her was that she was like a very fragile animal. She had such beautiful eyes and she was so skinny, so thin. . . . And no makeup. She was charming."

Ayatollah’s Predictable Response

LOS ANGELES (OnlineColumnist.com), Oct. 3, 2022.--Over two weeks after the death at the hands of the Basij militia of 22-year-old Kurdish women Mahsa Amini for not wearing her hijab properly, 83-year-old Ayatollah Khamenei officially speaks out. Amini was allegedly beaten to death with a truncheon by the Basij “morality police,” for defying Iran’s strict women’s dress code.  Showing why its pure madness for the U.S. and EU to reinvent former President Barack Obama’s 2015 Iranian Nuke Deal AKA the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action [JCPOA], Khamenei blamed the nationwide protests over Amini’s death on the U.S. and Israel.  Like the old Nazi regime, the Jews were the cause of all Germany’s past defeats and economic woes, leading to the worst massacre in human history.  But Khamenei uses the same predicable playbook, blaming the U.S. and Israel for explosive rioting occurring in 80 cities and towns around Iran.

Iran has lingering regret over Ayatollah Ruhollah Khamenei’s 1979 Islamic Revolution that toppled the progressive regime of Shah Mohammad Reza Palavi, who brought Iran out of the dark ages to incorporate U.S. and EU values into Iranian society.  Women during the Shah’s reign were not required to wear head-scarves, receiving comparable treatment in education and jobs in Iranian society.  Khomenei’s Islamic Revoution turned back the clock on 100 years of progress under the Shah and his father’s rule.  So, when it comes to nationwide protests, Amini was a catalyst for the population frustrated from the oppression of strict Shiite Islamic rule.  Khamenei approved the nationwide crack down on protesters, blaming the U.S. and Israel for trying to topple the Mullah regime.  But the aging-and-sick Khamenei knows that you can only oppress a population for so long.

Iran’s nationwide protests speak volumes about a population yearning for the good old days under the Shah when Tehran was a mini-Paris, a hub of haute couture, music, art and fashionable night life, letting Iranians work and live their lives without government oppression.  While the Shah had his “secret police” to prevent an Islamic takeover, the Basij militia were not tormenting Iran’s youth for wearing lipstick or listening to Western music.  “This rioting was planned,” Khamenei said.  “These riots and insecurities were designed by America and the Zionist regime, and their employees,” putting all the blame on imaginary foreign sources. Khameni and his Mullah regime knows that the protests are against oppressive Mullah rule, where the Basij and Revolutionary Gurards protect the regime at all costs, even massacring the population when it threatens the Mullah regime.

Students at Sharif University of Technology in Tehran announced that classes had been cancelled at the start of the new term, except for doctoral students.  Revolutionary Guards used tear gas to breakup crowds of students holed up in the university protesting the death of Amini, but, more importantly, demanding human rights.  Plain-clothed Revolutionary guards surrounded the university in a show of force.  State run IRNA downplayed the crackdown at Sharif University, saying that many students had been released from detention.  German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock condemned “the regime’s brute force” at Sharif Universit, calling it “an expression of sheer fear and the power of education and freedom,  Baerbook knows her German history, the same kind of tactics used by the Nazi SS to coerce and brutalize the German people into full conformity with Hitler’s regime.

Khamenei condemned the scenes of women burning hijabs and cutting of their hair as “actions that are not normal, that are unnatural,” warning that “those that foment unrest to sabotage the Islamic Republic deserve harsh prosecution and punishment,” said Khamenei.  Iran’s spasm of nationwide rioting occurred in 1999, right before the last gasps of pro-Shah protesters were forced out of the country.  Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and Basij militia tightened their grip on Iranian society, driving out residual malcontents with Mullah rule.  Over 41 deaths and at least 1,500 protesters have been arrested by plain-clothed Revolutionary Guards.  Alborz Mexami, an economic reporter, was arrested for subversive activities.  As the crack down proceeds, Iranian exiles in London, Paris, New York and Los Angeles, gathered to wave Iranian flags and protest the Ayatollah’s brutal crack down.

How ironic that most the protesters are under 25-years-of-age, never knowing in their lifetimes life before the 1979 Islamic Revolution.  Tehran-based university teacher Shaindokht Kharazimi said the new generation knows how to fight back against the Mullah regime.  “The [young protesters] have learned the strategy from video games and play to win,” said Kharazimi told the pro-reform Etemad newspapers.  “There is no such thing as defeat for them,” not knowing that periodic regime protests have gone on for over 40 years.  Kharazimi recalls the 1999 student protests when reformist President Mohammad Khatami backed the most violent street demonstrations since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.   “Don’t’ call it a protest, it’s a revolution now,” students showed at Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran.  Those students don’t know the Revolutionary Guard crack down currently underway.

Newsletter #55: The importance of James Kaliardos - more than a makeup artist

This week’s podcast was all about beauty news, and included a special section on the brilliance of makeup artist James Kaliardos. It all started with Lori Harvey getting ready for Vogue World on YouTube…

When IT Girl Lori looks over at her makeup artist, James Kaliardos, she simply introduces him as ‘James, my makeup artist.’ Which makes sense; Lori can afford the absolute best when it comes to her glam squad, and she does not owe anyone any credit, but I decided to use my podcast to create an extra episode, just so I could share a little information on James’ career, which began back in the 1990s.

I also created a TikTok on James and it’s received such good feedback from people who had either never heard of him before, or were glad to be reminded of his influence. Of course, there were a couple of comments saying that I’m unfairly ‘coming for Lori’ or ‘feigning annoyance’ and it’s not true at all. I was kind of annoyed, not at Lori - just at the missed opportunity.

It feels like, in 2022, information (often incorrect information at that) is shared without even a second being spent on adding a little context. When you’re in a position of influence, you have the ability to really celebrate someone’s work. In this instance, a high profile client is paying someone for a service and they don’t owe any public reviews or endorsements, but for me, James Kaliardos is highly influential, and not just in beauty. Here are just some of the reasons why…

New York-based James studied at the prestigious Parsons School of Design, where he focused on art history, photography, theatre and film, a decision which absolutely would have inspired him to go on to be one of the founders of the legendary Visionaire, a fashion-forward so-called experiential agency that produces films, events and publications. Launched in 1991 alongside Cecelia Dean and Stephen Gan, Visionaire has earned itself a reputation for highlighting the most interesting moments and people in fashion, art and film. They’ll often create these stunning themed issues with some costing as much as $1,000 and there was one special Louis Vuitton issue that went for $5,000.

Visionaire also launched one of my favourites, the highly influential V magazine in 1999, VMan in 2003 and former editor in chief of Vogue Paris, Carine Roitfeld’s CR Fashion Book in 2012. In 2014 the initial trio split, so today Cecelia and James run the company and the title Visionaire, while Stephen retained V and VMan.

James is also highly respected in the beauty world, and is often the artist that brands either want to collaborate with on a new range, or have backstage creating catwalk looks. We’re talking MAC, Nars, Tom Ford, Fenty Beauty, Makeup Forever – the list goes on it comes to makeup launches that have changed the face of beauty.

He’s worked on movies, music videos and his work has been seen in publications from Vogue to Allure and his celebrity clientele has taken him from working with Madonna in the ‘90s to Miley Cyrus, and of course, Lori Harvey. I think it’s all down to James’ highly attuned editorial eye; he simply knows what works and he creates looks that are super impactful but never fussy or overly-done.

One thing I personally love about James’ style, is that he’s never been a fan of a prescribed idea of prettiness; as he said in a 2016 interview for thekit.ca, he’s always been more into the girls who look even better than pretty – it’s about looking interesting and that looks different on everyone. So that’s that on James; I just wanted to share a little bit about who he is, just in case you happened to see his work with Lori Harvey. Lori might be an It girl but James is IT when it comes to beauty and innovation.

Would anyone be interested in a version 2 of T9S in my TWA verse? Version number 1 is in 1995, btw. This one's way less political.

It's July 1999, and J/H and E/D are going on a three week trip to tour western Europe. Together. Eric is devastated about the latest Star Wars movie, and Donna wanted to cheer Eric up. And Jackie and Hyde are tagging along as couple buddies, because Jackie thinks it sounds like fun (she always wanted to go to Paris with Donna). And Hyde wants to go to Amsterdam and Dublin (weed and beer, man) Leaving the kids at the old Forman abode;

Kate Forman (age 13) and Becca Hyde (age 13). A blossoming activist and budding perfectionist, and a quiet observer with a passion for grunge fashion and music. With their annoying, rambunctious siblings James Hyde (age 11) and Leah Forman (age 9).

Adrian Forman (age 14-5), Fez and Laurie's son also goes to his grandparents' house every summer, because he wants to. He's more of a Forman, and his dad's an effeminate weirdo that's hard to connect with, in his opinion.

Chelsea O'Connor (age 15): The artsy, hippie girl next door, and Adrian's best friend and budding love interest.

Kevin and Daniel "Danny" Acosta (age 15 and 12): Kevin is Adrian's level headed, nerdy best friend. Danny is Kevin's loud, wild child brother, and Becca's on-off boyfriend. They're visiting their mother, Maura, Leo's granddaughter (they usually live with their dad in Chicago). Their dad Vic is Buddy Morgan's partner, btw.

Melanie "Mel" Parker: Raquel's daughter (Raquel is bi, and her ex-husband Greg is the nephew of Lydia and Eloise), and her stepmom Meg is an estranged Erdman (the daughter of Fez's bible thumping host parents), who has been ostracized from the family for being gay.

****

Minor:

Adam and Sabrina Miller (age 14 and 9): They're Mitch's kids. Adam is a freaking creep who has a massive crush on Kate, and Sabrina's the only decent one of the Miller bunch. Well, except for her mother Lucy, who's dying of cancer.

𝓫𝓲𝓸𝓰𝓻𝓪𝓹𝓱𝔂

there was never anything special about sienna. dreadfully boring and just like everyone else in beverly hills, she was born into ridiculous wealth, her father being a hotel mogul and her mother simply acting as his trophy wife.

life was good and sienna never wanted for anything. she attended private school, was raised by nannies and just like her mother, planned on marrying a man that was just as rich as her father so she could do absolutely nothing.

she wasn't good at much - but she was good at partying, causing a scene, creating drama and spending money and it's what she became notorious for. her and her best friends started a youtube channel called 'silver spoon' that were simply daily vlogs of their debaucherous and rich lives.

they shot into social media stardom, sienna was the ring leader of her group. from brand deals and trips to modeling in fashion campaigns, she was on top of the world and she didn't even have to try.

last year, however, everything came crashing down when her father was arrested for embezzlement and fraud and swiftly, the spencer's lost all their money as he was sentenced into ten years in federal prison.

not wanting to give up her glamorous lifestyle, sienna now had to go to work and the only thing that she could think of that could provide her with just as much of a cushy lifestyle was acting.

however, she had never acted a day in her life and was incredibly untalented. that is, until her agent's final attempt slid across her desk and it was the script for 'gossip girl' and the character blair waldorf - a spoiled upper east side high school mean girl that requires quite literally 0 acting on her part.

wanted connections!

silver spoon vlog members childhood besties - some that stuck by her through her dad's arrest, some that turned their back on her toxic exes - m/f girlie is pan and only does toxic because she's insane phony friends enemies sugar daddy/mommy bc shes poor now <3

Ma anche di Etro, il brand italiano ora nell’orbita del fondo L Catterton, partecipato dal magnate francese.Leggi anche› L’eredità e il ritorno di Phoebe PhiloL’acquisizione di Off-WhiteOff-White, che ha presentato la collezione autunno inverno 2021/2022 Laboratory of Fun il 4 luglio con una sfilata-concerto aperta da Bella Hadid in mini abito di velluto blu elettrico, oggi finisce nella galassia del gruppo d’Oltralpe. Una cessione di maggioranza, al 60%, della Off-White LLC, la società proprietaria del marchio omonimo fondato nel 2013 e diretto da Virgil Abloh, guida artistica della collezione uomo di Louis Vuitton dal 2018 – nonché lo stilista più seguito del momento. L’operazione, soggetta alle approvazioni di legge, dovrebbe essere completata in 60 giorni.

Ora potrà evolvere grazie alla potenza di Lvmh» ha dichiarato Abloh. «Non vediamo l’ora di supportare il team nel guidare la crescita di Off-White e di lavorare insieme per portare la sensibilità unica di Virgil a una gamma più ampia di categorie di lusso» ha detto invece Arnault. Una decisione storica, considerato che Abloh si appresta così a diventare il primo uomo di colore nelle fila di un grande conglomerato luxury. Leggi anche› Com’è andata la Paris Fashion Week maschile primavera estate 2022L’investimento in EtroLvmh, che controlla quasi un sesto del lusso mondiale e ha in portafoglio marchi che vanno da Bulgari a Dior a Fendi, continua quindi la sua strategia di ampliamento del portfolio. É notizia recentissima l’acquisizione, attraverso il fondo L Catterton Europe, della casa di moda italiana Etro. La società di private equity globale, partecipata dalla Financière Agache di Arnault, prenderà una partecipazione di maggioranza al 60% nella Maison, lasciando il restante 40% alla famiglia Etro.Una finalizzazione delle trattative iniziate nella primavera 2021: «dopo quasi 55 anni alla guida del marchio, crediamo che la collaborazione con L Catterton avvierà una nuova fase di crescita e di consolidamento del ruolo di Etro tra i fashion brands più longevi e prestigiosi» ha dichiarato il fondatore, Gerolamo “Gimmo” Etro (che assumerà l’incarico di presidente della società).Operazione “svecchiamento” per il lussoConsiderato anche l’ultimo acquisto in termini di tempo di L Catterton, il marchio di sandali Birkenstock, la strategia di Lvmh è chiara: puntare sui brand più innovativi amati dai giovani da un lato, investire sul prestigio tramite l’acquisizione di marchi classici, come Etro, dall’altro. Lo scopo? Svecchiare il mondo del lusso e renderlo più appetibile che mai, soprattutto per le nuove generazioni.Leggi anche› Il gruppo LVMH ha comprato Tiffany & CoUn’operazione già in atto, confermata anche dagli ultimi movimenti in atto negli altri grandi gruppi del lusso: la quotazione in Borsa di Ermenegildo Zegna, ad esempio. L’operazione avverrà attraverso la fusione con la spac Investindustrial acquisition Corp, una società-veicolo varata a fine 2020 per portare aziende italiane negli Usa. Zegna avrà un valore iniziale atteso di 3,2 miliardi di dollari, con una capitalizzazione di mercato prevista di 2,5 miliardi: ovvero, tanti soldi da investire in nuovi progetti.Ricevi news e aggiornamenti sulle ultime tendenze beauty direttamente nella tua postaIscriviti alla newsletterLeggi anche› Buon compleanno Re Giorgio.

Faye Wong’s Response To Daughter Leah Dou’s Low-Cut Outfit Shows She’s Just Like Any Other Asian Mum (2022)

Still cool as ever, though.

Chinese diva Faye Wong, 53, may be as cool as ice, but it looks like the internet has since discovered what can crack her icy exterior.

Recently, Faye’s daughter, 25-year-old Leah Dou, rocked up at Paris Fashion Week in a chic, low-cut outfit.

The all-black leather number created quite a fair bit of buzz.

Over on Chinese social networking site Weibo, a fashion blogger shared pictures of Leah’s look, describing it as something that’s markedly different from Leah’s usual style.

Apart from that, the fashion blogger, who appears to be quite well-acquainted with Faye, also shared a screenshot of a text conversation with the singer.

“Our Faye made a brief comment,” the blogger wrote, revealing that Faye had simply replied an onomatopoeic "ze ze", which can be taken as an disapproving tut-tut.

Faye’s reply may have been oh-so-brief, it was clear to netizens that the diva is just like any other Asian mum out there .

“This is indeed the response of a mother, her reply’s so real,” one netizen laughed, while another wrote: “It’ll be so cool to have a mother like this”.

Leah is Faye’s daughter from her first marriage to Chinese rocker Dou Wei. Faye was married to Dou Wei for three years, from 1996 to 1999.
