HELLO WEDNESDAY
Hello darling,
I hope all is good? Is that considered a passive-aggressive way of demanding someone to be okay?
Well, all of this to say that while I was having my lunch break I came across what happened to be one of my top 10 garments which I would like to be buried in - at least this year, I think it's important to talk about what someone should wear when they transition into wanting and achieving.
ERDEM - SS26 collection.:
To my "surprise", the collection is influenced by artiste Hélène Smith, a 19th century Swiss medium, she has the ability to remember her past lives, she was a Hindu Princess, a member of Marie Antoinette's court and visitor to Mars, I'm very much intrigued on who I was in past lives? The idea of a sailor discovering new land is tempting, but the front desk admin lady of a hostel in the middle of Galicia sounds sweet. Oh, imagine... I was the ex-third wife of a lost child from a chinese empire - all of them even me now, fit this coat.
I've also had roast chicken and mash potatoes for lunch, ain't it crazy? There's nothing better I can imagine than eating roast chicken while that coat keeps me away from mediocre and yes, indeed, I'm reading Devorah Levy's, The Cost of Living.
Seems like this week, I'm gravitating very much into woman describing what it is to be one. I bet Hélène and Deborah are both not afraid of being sharp on their intentions, neither they feel less because they want more, and last week I read Joan Didion, The year of Magical Thinking, and last night I watched the Dior doc. in which Chralie Theron (can't be bothered to check if that's how it's written) is the face of the Dior perfume, not the Dior perfume but a Dior perfume, and you see all this footage of the dinner, I wonder how many times were all of them; Hélène, Deborah, Didion, Charlie; scared. They would all look so good on that coat...
If you prefer an art-commercial I recommend you to have a look at "TIGER" Demna and Gucci, I must admit I had my doubts, and somehow I was right, I don't feel lifted to a different galaxy in which the fact that a dog tried to bite me yesterday becomes irrelevant - but at least I wasn't bored during 30 minutes. What did bring me joy, was reading that Luis de Javier decided to skip the usual runway and will be performing for 24hours at 18 Rue de Turenne how he and his team create the collection in his atelier - you can go and visit. Oh it does bring me joy, it really does.
On Sunday I'm planning to go to my favourite garden (if it doesn't rain) inside the Lacroix Museum, I'm not sure about the book I want to start tomorrow. I think I need a classic, also nothing heavy, my shoulders are getting tired of running around with 8kg of weight. In the middle of a Simone Rocha SS26 show, I saw the name, Isabel MaCarthy, her photos, they look so honest, sorry. They are so honest. I knew I saw that way of capturing before, I FBI'ed my memories and turns out she had an expo, about grief. Well, the below is all I needed to know about the show. is it just me, or her photos look like she will keep those memories until her hair turns grey.
In a nutshell, these are my wednesday notes, or should I say in an egg? because they were plenty, all over Milan, looks like Diesel doesn't want to give people second thoughts about why they are the leading-most exciting urban-wear brand? gosh, and the winner went home with one of the pieces... so now when you get asked what is your favourite type of eggs; scrumbled, fried? Me? I prefer mine all over Milan
Well...
Best wishes, or kindest?
Maybe I'll just leave it open until tomorrow.
