supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting.

this may be old news to you, but i just discovered it.
it's rachel antonoff's spring lookbook in the form of a teen witch spoof.
it's embarrassingly funny.



here is the original one:


fun fact: the original teen witch was played by robyn lively.
blake lively's big sis!

anne valerie hash -spring 2010 couture


the clothes aren't particularly my style.
i was mostly drawn to the sentiment behind her couture show.
sarah mower for style.com writes:

 "...she said "I had this idea to do something about personal clothing, memory, and identity, so I started writing to people I admire and asking them to send me something of theirs to transform." Her first letter went to Alber Elbaz, who, with instant generosity, sent a pair of his pajamas, and once he'd agreed, it snowballed. She ended up with Tilda Swinton's Vivienne Westwood tee, Jean Paul Gaultier's Breton shirt, Pete Doherty's frogged drummer-boy jacket, a veil from Diane Pernet, a Chanel jacket from Daphne Guinness, and a spencer belonging to Charlotte Rampling."

 "One of the most exhilarating stylistic and psychedelic eruptions of the '60s."
