i know a few architects, and they pretty much are all fans of the form over function etc. idea, not pure minimalism, but certainly an aversion of decoration or ornamentation for the sake of it. modesty is perhaps the best way of describing it. i don't think any of them would ever conceive of wearing the typical SZ style. while i understand the point about asceteticism, isn't that part of the aesthetic, and therefore part of the decoration? it serves no purpose other than to create a surface, and in that way, it has no external purpose. there's nothing wrong with that, and I know that that doesn't mean that only pure minimalism can have validity in this context, but I'm not sure that wearing these types of clothes can justify an appeal to intellectual rigour or discipline. some of these clothes can be very fussy, and quite "flash" in my view. you need quite a big personality to pull them off (this is pretty much accepted here), and they are very expensive, and therefore I think that they run sometimes quite contrary to the idea of "modesty" in design.

Asceticism is not the first word I would use. I would say maturity and sophistication (and, dare I say, elegance?!).
I think the clothes being expensive is rather tangential to this discussion. One can argue that good architecture and furniture is expensive too. A lot of vulgar, garish clothes are expensive as well, and you can put a nice sober outfit not very expensively either.
Anyway, I'm quite happy that this thread produced some interesting discussion. Tired of all the where to kop bullshit already.

I don't begrudge her, I disdain her. And I would imagine so does Rick - otherwise he would not refuse to go to the Met ball.Last edited by philip nod; 05-10-2010, 02:10 PM.One wonders where it will end, when everything has become gay.

Originally posted by christianef View Postagreed. i wonder how many people on here with rick dunks could actually dunk a basketball. aside from Christian (because of the height and he is generally capable of doing anything.) so, so much for authenticity.

Originally posted by philip nod View Postbeen absent for most of this so my two nuts -- I know a lot of these types of women that are being ruthlessly and easily attacked here (well maybe they don't wear gucci sunglasses) - along the lines of the elitist celeb bashing- and I always find when I'm in their company (the majority of them) that they are the kindest sweetest people around and their generousity knows no bounds. their desire to know about latest trends and the "street" is also surprising as is their ability to retain and engage. and often they know insider info that is astonishing to hear, especially when we think we know it all.
and i don't know since when elitism has become automatic criticism? this is definitely a postmodern disease. meritocracy and elite are inseparable.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde
