TIP: 'Jean Paul Gaultier - The day before' -documentary about the last 24 hours before the haute couture show

'It's a woman's world-through the eye of an alien - Thierry Mugler shows new collection with L. Gaga

What is happening here? Thierry Mugler's designer Nicola Formichetti shows ‘alienated womenswear’, guided by 'real' men, men in boring suits. What a contradiction! The old-fashion suits helps the models in latex and super high heels off the stairs - out of courtessy, surpression, or out of prevention of hitting the ground of mother earth? The faces of these male models don't lie, like they are saying: "Whats all this? Are this real women? Our opposite sex? Should I feel arroused by these scary, dominatresses of latex? I must come from another planet...how did I come here anyway?!" In this fashion performance the man has a pure functional role to play. Wouldnt it be more pleasant when Mugler would have taken the men on board of her space ship as well, and let them be a part of this performed woman's world? It's cold, to see how wide the distinction gaps between men and women in the world of fashion, they are portrated as strangers....hopefully that will not be the future...

PS:
Found them! The Mugler-Men, who should be there to take the Lady Gaga's by the hand, instead of those Royalty Windsor-looking lads: It's a happy latex-world after all...

PSS...
the pictures above are the backstage photo's! ...LOL...just checked the official runway pics, those Windsor guys are not..uhm...part of the show! obviously. But it's still fun to see the looks on their faces, looking at the alienated fashion creations, they clearly do not get....and maybe neither do I!

oei oei tijd niet geblogd

ai ai, het bloggen schiet er een beetje bij in, doordat ik bezig ben een mannenmode-platform op te zetten en wat nevenactiviteiten doe voor diverse mode-organisaties, zoals MAFB.nl en The Big Black Book.
Via facebook verschijnt vanzelf weer een RSS wanneer er iets nieuws op MCOT staat, beloofd.
Dus deze blog blijft levende hoor! Alleen ben ik even bezet...
tot snel,
