l'amour fou


I dug out of the house last night to see the new YSL documentary. I thought it was part haunting of yves, part auction documentary, part pierre's veiled struggle, part moving architectural digest. It in many respects was a moving, talking, color version of hedi slimane's work on the estate (http://www.hedislimane.com/fashiondiary/index.php?id=57). The majority of the film was dolly shots through the couples' homes accompanied by soft piano tracks and various fountains flowing as they appeared on screen. During these shots doors opened by themselves, lights turned on and off, walls were stripped bare--some shots lingered so long it was hard not to feel some sense of misunderstood nostalgia. It's like seeing blood on the walls but not understanding how it got there. I guess this idea goes hand in hand with an overwhelming question the film presented about the soul of things and belongings. For me the most beautiful scenes were those of Château Gabriel, the saddest of the auction in Paris, and the most fashion driven a tie between the arena show and all of the finale wedding dresses. I won't lie in that I loved the scenes with Betty Catroux. I recommend it to everyone.

McQueen at the Met

I got a chance to make it over to the McQueen exhibit at the Met on Sunday and it was well worth it. It really is nice to see some of McQueen's work throughout history in such close proximity. I mean seeing pieces from the beginning of his career was quite the gift for me. This has got to blow the general public away. It truly does show off the craftmanship behind this man's genius. It really does bring a new level of respect. Even pictures sometimes can't do justice especially with clothes in which many times the details are lost. That for me is the best part of shows anyway.  It was quite packed so it was hard to truly enjoy the exhibit, the outfits were there though. The only critique I have is that it seemed a bit too romanticized, but I guess in some ways that's appropriate especially in regards to the title of the exhibit. I can't wait to read the book. I figure I will make it back a few more times when it's a bit quieter. You should definitely go see it if you are in the area. I would recommend stopping into the Richard Serra exhibit while you are at it.

Chanel
