This shit. This shit bangs. So this guy, if you don’t know who he is, he made those crazy fucking alien looking freak shoes for Lady Gaga in the “Bad Romance” MV. He was cooking. The top half of this? Microscope slides dyed red. the bottom half? OSTRICH FEATHERS. Apparently it sounded like chimes when you walked because, like, you’re slapping a bunch of little glass slides together. I wouldn’t know, I’m not Bjork so like I haven’t worn this thing (she has in fact worn this thing).

I like to imagine this is just the patients at a psychiatric ward walking around who just so happen to have immense swag. I like the feathers and shellfish and the bandages on the models. This show also feels less sexual than earlier McQueen shows, which I like.

Obsessed with the iconic show… the models falling with what I think is the most uncomfortable heels ever made, more than Louboutin’s Kate. It was the first fashion show i ever watched and it made me feel scared and FOMO at the same time.

My friend Carly Mark is a genius artist, making work about the female gaze, body horror and conspicuous consumption. But now you can conspicuously consume Puppets and Puppets, the high meets low endless design experiment she’s running like it’s Gucci in the Tom Ford era only EVERYONE is invited. Gender, size- she’s blowing up all the binaries of fashion. It ain’t cheap, but the prices reflect couture level production, fascinating fabrics and playfully sinister details (a demure Mary Jane with a wooden wedge of cheese for a heel, a chic little purse with a resin black and white cookie slapped on its front in place of logo hardware.) This is high fashion for the kid who liked to layer macaroni necklaces, for the former Emily The Strange who now works in branding, for any person who wants to add “art witch” to their resume. Carly has made me a few dresses and whenever I wear them, I feel like I can change the world with the power embedded in the layered skirts. It’s also so genderfluid that my husband can (and does) steal.

Emily St. John Mandel is a wizard or perhaps a witch and definitely warrants the HBO adaptation (which also fucks)

THIS SHIT IS INSANE!!!! I miss the 90s n McQueen n Tom Ford n shit and I was not alive in the 90s. I wasn’t even alive on 9/11. Connor Roy would avoid me, because he’d ask “where were you on 9/11?” And I would say “I was in the water, Connor. I was trapped between the atoms of the air you breathe,” and then because of his omnipresent daddy issues he’d tell me he was interested in politics from a very age. Oh well.
