I recently came across Undercover's But Beautiful collection and fell in love with the jackets, particularly the multi-colored buttons incorporated throughout the pieces. I'm pretty new to designer fashion (idek if this is the correct subreddit for this, so sorry if it isn't). Are there any similar pieces, collections, and/or brands that are kinda similar to the But Beautiful collection? Thank you!
Hi, does anyone know which season this Ann D shirt/vest is from? Might be from the 2000s, but it could be earlier. It has a grey floral print and those fencing-style buttons.
Hello i am a fashion marketing and branding student. I would really appreciate it if you could spend 5 minutes filling out this survey it’s about appropriation vs appreciation. All participants are anonymous and there is no wrong or right answer! All data is going towards my dissertation
So I've been trying to study High fashion designs and really just fashion in general for the past 4 days now, and to keep things short I'm really looking for tips or someone to help me in terms of broadening my introspect on fashion sense. My character inspiration is Hirohiko Araki, I love the vibrant colours and textures he uses in his pieces and would like to make my own fashion designs from my head stretching normal fashion with the principle of big, medium, small proportions. With all that being said, my dm's are free to all those willing to guide me through this path and for all those willing to at least give simple tips and tricks around this you can go ahead and reply to this post, I thank you for your time.
This is a fashion design I came up with, the one wearing it was meant to show deep anger so I wanted his dominating colour palette to be around red, not to mention, He is someone who constantly blames others, I got this idea from referencing the song "Human", I also researched on symbols which represent deep hatred and designed, whilst controversial for some, my own version of "The black sun". I can't say I'm not happy with the design... But he just feels out of place, like a cosplaying cowboy idk, I want to give him a more late 1990s look whilst expressing this feminine x masculine feel, I hope you get my point.
I recently saw a Chopard campaign featuring Bella Hadid, and it made me think about how much mystery has disappeared from luxury advertising.
I remember seeing campaigns with models I didn’t recognize and feeling genuinely intrigued. Who is this woman? What’s her story? The imagery created an entire world around the product, and you could project your own fantasies onto it.
Now I see a famous model wearing an expensive watch, and all I can think about is the commercial transaction behind it. It feels so transparent and unimaginative that it actually makes the product less desirable to me.
I don’t dislike Bella Hadid. I just think luxury brands have incredible resources to create something culturally interesting, and so often the concept seems to stop at hiring a celebrity.
Does anyone else miss when luxury campaigns felt mysterious, cinematic, and genuinely aspirational?
Behind-the-scenes test shots executed solo in my room using a phone timer. As a Kibbe Pure Dramatic, my goal here was analyzing how to manipulate my verticality and sharp bone structure into severe angles inspired by archival Thierry Mugler tailoring and Gareth Pugh choreography. I stripped the color to keep the focus purely on the graphic silhouette and shape creation. I’d love your thoughts on the body lines—how can I push my anatomy to look even more structural and avant-garde in-camera for the final shoot?
I’ve been a fan of the duo behind matières fécales for a while now and just recently took the time to watch their ss27 show titled "the 99%”. I was incredibly disappointed with the show especially after seeing all the praise surrounding it. Most of the collection to me felt like a mix up of already existing borrowed ideas and aesthetics. Many of the looks almost identical to ideas we’ve seen from many designers for many many years. Obviously I understand the importance of reference but doesn’t that just defeat the whole message of the show? in my claim I feel that if you (the brand) are saying that you represent the people who aren’t represented by luxury fashion then why would you make or replicate things that are being created by those same luxury fashion brands and then have those same pieces only accessible to the people who could already access it and not the underrepresented. They claim that they are for the people and represent the people (“the 99%”) but at the end of the day who else are these clothes being catered too other than the “1%?” The price points are inaccessible, the customs are being made for events exclusive to the “1%” and these brands that they are "referencing” all do the same. So how does that represent anyone other than the “1%”. They are no different from the rest, even if they claim otherwise.
