Fashion as art, fashion as living
Fashion is the era’s aspiration. We explore the aesthetic revolutions and the legacies of taste left by legendary masters. Through the eyes of critics and journalists, we witness Chanel liberating women from their constraints during the World Wars, Dior restoring a sense of “elegance” through a romantic soul, Saint Laurent playing the role of the bourgeois rebel, and Yohji Yamamoto’s more recent foray into Black Philosophy and humanistic reflection. As it turns out, our modern lives and aesthetics all stem from these "Creators of Beauty" who reflected their generations.

Those irreversible slices of life
Recently, in a novel I've come to love, I found myself grasping the weight of life's slices. In the story, there is a wicked sorcerer who freezes people in the instant just before tragedy strikes—suspending everything, sealing it into a crystal ball, and building an entire museum from these frozen moments. And isn't film, in its own way, just as cruel? As viewers, we are little more than instruments for collecting tissue slices—slipping into a character's world for a single fleeting moment, wandering through it in passing, only to return, in the blink of an eye, to the reality that is our own.
