all things sacred has become profane.............
the grand has become ordinary
the exceptional rendered mundane

while sad, it's kind of to be expected that new school mmm would say yes to h&m.
I wonder if ann or rick was given the offer they'd go for it, I tell myself no but who knows anymore, given how the market isI do not recognise the vessel,
but the eyes seem so familiar

the moment a brand loses its identity or abandon its core principles, then there is no point anymore.
Outside of cetain eithical practices, I have no beef with companies like Zara, H&M etc. there is a whole bunch of people who are not well off, who don't make alot of money and needs to look good in different aspects of thier lives. Someone has to provide clothes for them to wear. But when a high end brand who is about well designed and well made clothing made in limited and exclusive runs, suddenly start pandering to the masses by putting itself in the same league as mass market brands, I just dont know whats the point anymore........“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

Well, the company is Diesel and it stands for black gold. Nothing shocking about this. It's just shitty.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Well, this goes to show how primal instincts trump reason in a lot of respects. you would think that customers who are educated informed and intelligent, would suddenly say no to a brand when it does these things, giving investors a greater level of reluctance in forcing out founding designers and turning these companies into all things to all men. I am not saying this is the case at MMM because I dont know .............but then, most of our society are like mindless sheep of whom PR and marketing hirelings can sway in any direction they want with slick marketing of the very things we ought to be opposing.
I used to be a huge supporter of MMM because I liked what the company represented, but I haven't bought anything in years and have no interest in doing so at this point.......
In a way I kind of hate what the fashion industry has become, Helmut Lang has been laid to waste and ended up doing "Art"......Margiela has gone back to School
Theyskens is doing a middle market brand and Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen are CFDA designers of the year........
I see a lot of Kids spending thousands of dollars going to School to get a fashion degree, and I think to myself that this is one of the greatest ripoffs, one of the biggest scams going today............and I think so because Kanye West and the Olsens are now taken as serious players in the field, while the people of genuine talent are rendered irrelevant.“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

You took the words out of my mouth, zamb.
I somehow saw this coming. There is now a diffusion line, a collaboration with Opening Ceremony and a perfume, this H&M thing seems like the next logical step.
I also cannot wrap my head around how this possible collection for H&M will look like. I suppose it could be a really watered down version like the CdG collection.
I haven't bought anything Margiela in years even though the footwear still tempts me because the tabi boots are one of the greatest pair of shoes ever made. I'd rather buy Lutz these days.lavender menace
