Brit Awards: Eye Candy and Food For Thought

Post date Fri 20 Feb 2009 8:35 AM


The whole Brit Awards looked like a huge Hollowood complex, too much glitz, glamour, make up, fake eye lashes and extensions. It was a releaf to see model Alice Delall rush to the afterparty like this, bringin some ol dirty british style from the land that gave us the God Mother Vivienne Westwood.

Here is some of the style passing the test more or less

Estelle on stage Ok but surely not more than that

 Alesha dixon, ok for suitjacket and silouette, but only compered to the others
 

Pixie Geldof
 Estelle in Dolce Gabbana


What we re gonna do with those two?!!:
Katy Perry - the edgy, crazy chick that kissed a girl and liked it last year... *please do note my irony*

 

 

 

Lady Gaga - the moste commerciall product since preserved porridge

Lady Gaga was reminding me of Li Xiaofengs incredible work, but that doesn't mean I liked this.

Or I do - in a way, I rather see this freaky shit than same ol, same ol. But both Katy Perry and Lady Gaga are commercial to the bone, they re not trying to push things forward - they trying to get that attention, paper and stardom (see my comment on Beyonce vs Gareth Pugh). We see them in incredible avantgarde design and they expose those to the big audiance which is good in a way (ARTis for evrybody, not a small elit audience; Decida Style is about Hi to LO and back again - you know it!!!) but is at the same time exploiting it for own profit, Im not saying they shouldn't wear Gareth Pugh etc,

Im just saying be aware of what/who is pushing boundaries and who/what's not.

It's not that i think I m writing about something new here, it's the ol story of art vs consumption/commercialism.
