What is fashion? What can we do with fashion?
Fashion designer Yoshikazu Yamagata, works to emotionally expand the concept of fashion and tackling big questions like those above. He stirred controversy with his collections at Japan Fashion Week, including “The Everyone’s New Clothes” which questioned what fashion was about, ”Graduate Fashion Show 0′ Point”, which showcased the strength of starting from zero in fashion and “The Fashion Show of The Gods”, his Spring/Summer 2010 collection, which examined the origins of creation, presented in October 2009.

Joy, undivided - Cape Town

January 28th, 2010 - sarahp - 0 Comments

Growing up in the sun-drenched Karoo, amongst little cave crawlies and lanky desert birds that can’t fly, Chris Slabber sees Cape Town as a place of wonder and surprise. Like a kid in a theme park, everything is a joyride. Aside from the “bergie” (homeless dude with a passion gap that is always drunk and shouting “Jou ma se POES” to his/her fellow bergies) waiting around each of Cape Town’s corner, is a world of opportunity and sensory indulgence. Each day comes wrapped in potential.

Cape Town is the place to flirt with danger, get messy, have fun and cause a frenzy – XXX style.

A city begging to be explored, where the mountains meet the city that meets the ocean, Cape Town is a playground for the extreme.

Skating, BMX, Surfing and FMX, this is a subculture of adrenalin-junkies, defiant in their quest for unadulterated and uncompromised freedom.
