Notes On A Clothing Rack
Ralph Lauren once famously said 'I don't design clothes. I design dreams.'
How true.
In a cosmopolitan world that we live in, amongst the cold concrete lawns, towers of vertical glass and masses of metallic wheels, dreams can be reduced to be no more than a myth. No longer are dreams hiding in between cracks of rock formations. No longer are dreams perched upon a tall tree, where they find themselves singing with the tweetering of the birds. No longer are dreams floating naturally as the ocean breeze caress them gently. No longer can dreams be found externally.
Our only consolation comes from the inside... of our wardrobe.
My philosophy of 'Make wardrobe, not war.' stands very firmly as one of my core values in llife.
We only have two legs, why not put something that everyone loves on it?
Some people might think that I am housing a materialistic monster inside of me, but who are they to judge when the world is superficial in its make?
This philosophy comes from a good place inside me. A cumulation of personal experience and acquired taste that I am very willing to share, to make the lives of others better and this world... a better place ultimately.
The male silhouette has changed over the years. It is a natural occurrance, since the female form has changed from the curvy (i.e. Marilyn Monroe), to the waif (i.e. Twiggy), to the Amazonian (i.e. Linda, Cindy, Naomi, Claudia & Christy), to the baby doll on sticks (i.e. Gemma, Sasha, Lily & Natasha) today.
Back in the 90s, the all-American look seemed to define what a male model is with New York emerging as a major force in Fashion and Calvin Klein is call of existance for male models. Today, a slim lined male figure is the ideal. Toned and tasteful marked a maturity in Men's Fashion. It simply appeals to everyone. It is also very high fashion, androgenous, modern and sophisticated. Of a European standard, these male models can go from all-American (with oil) to couture (with make up).
How then can be encapsulate this dream??? We start small. A step at a time.
