The higher the shoes the closer to god.

I don't think the height would be a detriment. They'd be half covered by your trousers most of the time. Colour combination is pretty fun.

Thank you for starting this much needed thread. For a little more insight there's a lovely book to start with: http://www.amazon.com/Future-Beauty-Years-Japanese-Fashion/dp/1858945461 The book paid a homage to 'In Praise of Shadows', a short story that touches on the concept of wabi-sabi which can b...

Sorry for the dirty mirror

Oh my word where do I find the thread? What's the purpose anyway...

Edit: nvm found it by accident

I own a little too many double riders, they are either vintage or Junya Watanabe.

, do you mean my Damir Doma ponyskin creepers? I don't remember any Yohji clogs.

- I've finally finished writing the on Sacai. Also posting here for anyone who might be interested.

I can see what you mean more in relation to "lose weight" I think. What about someone with measurements that aren't particularly easy to deal with? Example being (for men, as I know nothing about women's clothes), a large chest with very slim shoulders, or vice versa. In most cases, would...

^^Maybe that explains why I love COS so much. Once I spent two hours in the store thinking what to buy/not to buy, sauntering back and forth in the process, trying stuff out, and not once did the SAs bat an eye or gave me the dirty look, even let me walk out of the changing room while reserving it f...

This is waaaay overdue but I figured well, why the hell not.

At the airport.

JtotheWhat , I'm not surprised at all if what you said is true. Friend of mine who's a huge Yohji fan feels that Yohji is sexist - one gets a hint of it from reading My Dear Bomb. In terms of clothing design alone, out of the three Japanese Masters, Yohji is the least democratic of them all towards...

heckawheel , regarding the choice of models for CdG, Rei's not one to politicise her clothes or her shows, ever. Her only concern is her approach to design and the business, everything else she's happy to follow the industry standards. You'll find that even in the 80s she hired models with typical ...

^^The same thing applies to the editorial side actually. There are more male fashion photographers and stylists in senior positions I have personally encountered, although the number isn't as skewed. However when it comes to the crème de la crème, male fashion photographers reign supreme.

Bela - I have a strong feeling there are more female womenswear designers overall but many aren't in the luxury market. Either that or they're part of the team but not the leader. Haven't got a number to back this up though.

Thank you for posting, some excellent points you've raised.

My first thought after reading the article is, what about the men? Are they slaves too? Why is she only looking at the female models?

I will get back on this once I have time for proper thinking

Fair enough. But I still hold the opinion that some of the arguments presented here weren't read in depth or we wouldn't be getting frustrated in the first place. Related to the subject of feminist having to explain things - which was featured in the essay: "On the topic of privilege: "Bla...

Well I'd let you know as soon as I find out where the end of the shawl is supposed to attach itself to :P

Vaeltaja , noone's refusing to back up with sources, there have been links thrown about left and right. The question is, are those links being read with an open mind? Amongst some others, I'm quoting Cameron's "it should not be controversial to say that there are men's and women's issues and t...
