Real Fashion Change Comes From Real Changes

We Are Actually Starting To Manipulate Our Bodies, Because We Can, Into A Shape. We Are Becoming Our Own Art. But What Happens For Me Is That It Desexualizes Everything. You Know, You Start To Look More And More Polished, More And More Lacquered And You Look Like A Beautiful Car. Does Anyone Want To Sleep With You? Does Anyone Want To Touch You? Does Anyone Want To Kiss You? Maybe Not, Because You're Too Scary.

I Am Tired Of The Cult Of Youth. The Cultural Rejection Of Old Age, The Stigmatization Of Wrinkles, Grey Hair, Of Bodies Furrowed By The Years. I Am Fascinated By Diana Vreeland, Georgia O’keeffe And Louise Bourgeois, Women Who Have Let Time Embrace Them Without Ever Cheating. Society Today Condemns This, Me, I Celebrate It.

I Do Struggle Because I’m Attracted To Beautiful Things, Yet At The Same Time I Am Actually Very Aware, In Some Sense, Their Lack Of Value And That The Most Important Things In Life Are Your Connections To Other People.
