The Style Line x Brand Assembly: Whitney Pozgay
“Everyone has a voice and in the process, it is leveling the playing field for fresh ideas and talent. I think the major influence of social media in fashion has encouraged people to celebrate diversity and makes fashion accessible to everyone, in turn, forcing the industry to rethink its current models and ways of operating.” Discover our follow-up visit with WHIT in partnership with Brand Assembly on both The Style Line and The Assemblist.

ITALIAN YOUTH
The Italian’s say they are born with taste when it comes to food and fashion – this couldn’t be more true. They have a rich history in fashion and it doesn’t seem to be lost on the younger generations. On my travels through Italy these past few years, it was quite evident that a lot of personal style is based off traditional elements, while still adding a modern touch through quality contemporary pieces.

17th-century Dutch Inspired Wearable Art Worthy of any Art Phene’s Attention
Models walked the runway wearing broken frames and twisted canvas like jilted lovers whose aggression found retribution in the cruelest of ways.
This isn’t some avant-garde Chelsea gathering, but the latest fashion show put on by the courageous fashion duo Viktor&Rolf.
As the models finished their turn on the catwalk Viktor&Rolf stood quiet in the background helping a chosen few out of the exaggerated outfits, rearranging the cracked textile frames and fabrics inspired by 17th-century Dutch Golden Age artwork, and hanging them on the back wall.
Moving works of art are steady features in the duo’s repertoire - their early 2015 Haute Couture line, Van Gogh Girl was richly influenced by Van Gogh’s style and vivid depictions of rural countrysides. During that runway show each flower printed A-line babydoll dress increased in color, topped off with ever growing sculptural straw hats.
“Art comes to life in a gallery of surreal proportions,” read the designers’ show notes. “A dress transforms into an artwork, back into a dress and into an artwork again. Poetry becomes reality, morphing back into fantasy.”

Insect Fashion
I haven’t been able to find out who was responsible for creating the giant insects for Uniqlo‘s fashion advertisements announcing their new Uniqlo Undercover line by Jun Takahashi, but I am in love with them. Well, the insects, that is. Though the humans are nicely attired, they’re not nearly as insect-inspired. I’d trade any of those fine threads for a chance to jam with Bass-Playing Bee!

I want to be Alexander McQueen but I’m just a sad artschool gal pinning pleats into shitty polyester at 1am only to find out that they’re all the wrong measurement upon finishing.
