Knitting Love


To be honest, since young... i am a fan of of those mohair sweater cardigan. It is just that our side of the world is too hot and I couldn't really wear it. However, there are still pieces knitted wear I kept since 90's as I believed the trend would someday some back. And it's happening now! I have been rocking those knitted cardigan and knitwear since last year, the lazy me threw them in washing machine and it shrinks .... shrunk... shrunken. now it is so so small that i cant wear anymore. So i have gear up and go look for some more!

I saw these fabulous pieces from Rodarte and will cost $2760 for a piece, WHAT? loving em but cant afford... anywhere else?

Fashion Revelation



The first time i saw something called "body modification" was from Leigh Bowery, how he actually modified his body using clothing. Fast-forward - futuristic fashion in 90's is part of body modification for me eg Hussein Chalayan architect inspired collection, Issey Miyake, Pacco Robanne, Thierry Mugler and even today's designers are coming up with different silhouette that modified the shape of the body. This is getting exciting in the fashion world... everything is becoming so robotic, we now have one Lady Gaga; in few years time, I think we will all look more gaga than she is and we might even make friends with robots?

Here is what I find both creatively done and inspiring, taken from L'Official Hommes China January Issue #226 shot by Xu Chuang, Modelled by Zhang Liang, titled "Fashion Revelation". At least now I have a preview what an asian would look like in the future. Not so bad after all...

Alighting by Grace Coddington



If you've watched "The September Issue" then you will know what an amazing stylist Grace Coddington is. She is simply unbeatable and had the eyes for all things fashion. I saw her work in the movie and came across one of her masterpiece. Amazing!

i-D : The Flesh and Blood issue

In this i-D's "The Flesh and blood issue" , i love the styling and the clothes and i suspect it's Kokon To Zai?


Luke Worrall has gone black








Here are some images that Luke Worrall for British fashion label Maiden shot by Ram Shergill. And he is seen in black hair... sexy anyway but still prefer him blonde. What do u think?

Who's That Girl?




T
his is probably 2 months old by now. Just saw the promo video of the magazine "CANDY" , the only and first magazine that dedicated to celebrate transvestism, trans-sexuality, cross dressing and androgyny… which i think it's good as 21st century is on its way, there is no need to differentiate people and justify ourselves. Which leaves us the ability to celebrate the diversity of lifestyles and options. Here are my two favorite male models Luke Worral and Cole Mohr, cross-dressed. Sexy!
