“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”
Coco Chanel quotes (French Fashion designer who ruled over Parisian haute couture for almost six decades, 1883-1971)
A good model can advance fashion by ten years.
Yves Saint Laurent
Fashion is all about happiness. It’s fun. It’s important. But it’s not medicine.
Donatella Versace
AGAINST
“Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.”
Oscar Wilde
Art produces ugly things which frequently become more beautiful with time. Fashion, on the other hand, produces beautiful things which always become ugly with time.
Jean Cocteau
Oh, never mind the fashion. When one has a style of one’s own, it is always twenty times better.
Margaret Oliphant
A fashion is nothing but an induced epidemic.
George Bernard Shaw
OUR TAKE
Fashion is seen in a very myopic fashion
We would broaden the term by calling it PASSION
And if passion is added to a persons already high confidence
Then whatever one wears…starts making sense !!!

Philip Glass: La Belle et la Bête $24.95 This is an extraordinary retelling of the classic story “The Beauty and the Beast”, this time based on the Jean Cocteau film La Belle et la Bete. Philip Glass, one of our reigning minimalists, studied under Darius Milhaud and Nadia Boulanger in Paris and his music has always had a quiet Debussy-like character to it. What is amazing is that Glass is one of the minimalists who have made a succes… |

Beauty and the Beast (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray] $23.00 This is definitely not the Disney version. While it remains faithful to the plot of the classic fairy tale by Leprince de Beaumont, Jean Cocteau’s 1946 French romantic fantasy is the product of a sophisticated, mature sensibility in its tones and textures and, above all, in its surprising emotional power.
