new. brief.
new brief- fashion and music. pick an artist....any artist. design 100 and finalise a 6 outfit collection. sounds easy enough but oh my is it proving tricky. the 'ear/eye' co-ordination is tough. Its all about the music, we have to listen to the chosen artist and go to life drawing classes, draw how the music sounds....design how the music sounds. Pretty much wish I had synesthesia. I chose Kraftwerk though and im now getting really into it, which is surprising cos im not realllllyyyy normally into that sort of electro crazy sounds music but Kraftwerk are top of the game, always have been always will be. Thank you mum for making me listen to Autobahn as a kid. Other then having to listen to them 24/7 (yes im turning a bit robotic and keep think about frequencies) im have a whale of a time researching them, learning about all this mental technology they invented and their crazy robots and all. Its good. Im now pro technology, bring on the robots. Who'da thought I'd be the girl sat on the train blasting Kraftwerk and reading up about how to make a Robot, nuclear power plants and everything that goes with it! Man I wana go to Japan, right now its just calling me, it has everything I want. Comme and the most advanced Robots!

Comme des Garcons Paris love
All i can say is i wish that i had the cute red shoes of dorethys, not to wish my self home but to away, back to Paris, back to the amazing Place Vendome where the Comme bubble i love so much is! It was the best experience of my life, everyone was beyond kind and I made some good friends. Everyone around me dressed head to toe in Comme des Garcons was enough of a treat, it was like 'fashion eye candy' amazing. The whole thing was great, arriving on my first day to a collection description from Rei Kawakubo, Junya Wantanabe and TAO. Rei the beauty described hers at "outside decorations" it was breath taking being in the same room as all these people who I would give anything to have just a pinch of their innovative talent. Junyas collection breakdown is a little fuzzy in my mind because someone pretty much passed out on me- so it must have been good! And TAO was dreammmmmyyyy " a flowing journey ". The show rooms where amazing, the collections looked so stunning i pinched my self many times and couldnt quiet believe it all. Even the food they gave us was THE BEST food i have ever had, so so much better then the pizza and mini rolls (retch) i got given as a meal at my last little job (meaaooooww, i know) but there's nothing about Comme des Garcons thats bad, the people where great, the environment was perfect the atmosphere exciting, I love Madame Kawakubos work, like I said in my uni admission statement- if it wasn't for Comme des Garcons I wouldn't be going into fashion.
Other then eating amazing food and admiring amazing people- oh i just remembered Steven Jones did the hats and he was in the showroom one day, me and Daniela got super excited (cont from before) I was at work in the CDG CDG showroom. Helping clients and buyers from alllll over select whats going into their shops and dressing the in house models it what ever we or they wanted *even the models where lovely, friendly and of course b-e-a-utiful. It was heaven down to a T.
I do have plenty of piccys from the showrooms and of the new collections but I gotta wait a while before I upload just incase : ) I dont wana be in anyone bad books. So yeah, if you want to see me at my happiest then take me back to Paris. x
