- To honor the late Isabella Blow, Daphne Guinness has set up a foundation to support aspiring art and fashion students and to facilitate further research into depression and mental health. Nick Knight speaks to Guinness about the objectives behind this and her Christie's auction taking place 27 June 2012, which will sell treasured pieces from her archive, including Alexander McQueen and Balenciaga.
Nick..."are there materials you love wearing?"
Daphne... "diamonds".
and she wasn't being IRONIC
Looks like a real life cruelly de ville
we love cruella de ville
Well it must be wonderful to be so rich that the only universe that exists is yourself - to spend all day talking about yourself and what you are wearing, what you wore, etc.
Laure -- Word!
Earning money to help other people who suffer from problems such a bitch. Artists like creating and discussing beautiful things and talented people.
They ask her about what herself and what she is wearing that is why she talks about it. She knows what she is talking about and that is why she is rich.
@@AnnaLVajda She is an heiress.
Laure thank you
Obscene wealth. Let's get food for starving kids
Even the interviewer looks like a wrong un. They all move in the same sick circles. 😡
The girl who lives in a Tree dress was worn by Gaga on AHS: hotel
Well, she’s definitely not the most intelligent person I’ve ever heard speak.
Most of the "blue" blood and "elitest" are stupid af. Thats a monster and i can only define the gender with IT.
Yeah I guarantee you that I often sound real stoopid too. And quite a lot of people think that I am. So waddya think? Can you give an opinion on me - or is it only the hugely wealthy that you see fit to critique on the intellectual level? ...For god's sake, dude, she sounds just plain ordinary ta me.
John Ward the fact that you’re siding with her, guarantees you’re an idiot (as was I for a long time). It is on the individual to seek the truth. When you find truth, how you respond will determine where you stand intellectually, not me... a random TH-camr.
I guarantee you’ve read maybe 5 books in your entire life haha.
You are a pathetc loser
Q sent me
Same here , we are on it. Awakened.
Daphne a eccentric beauty good for her.
What she is doing is so amazing.
I look at her and her environment and feel like home.
Hmmm...that comment about the “ethnic” necklace. I don’t know about that Daphne......
Ms Guinesd tribute to alexander mc queen was reaiily beautifull
He was amazing.
look how elegant daphne seats herself.....
how can she stays in the same position in the all 15 minutos
Comes from generations of good breeding
"Alexander, Karl, Gareth." Love it!
This is the second interview I'm trying to watch with Daphne - love her perfume - but it's insufferable to me. I'm perhaps too continental, but the affectation, the tone of voice, the limited vocabulary - or whatever it is that makes her not so expressive verbally. I guess when your whole focus is clothes, that might happen. I'm on to Suzy Menkes - let's see whether that works. I expect improvement, lol.
Sofie Rheder sure, but you got to admit to the irony of a socialite without social skills no? lol Her perfume - developed for Comme des Garcons (and concocted by a reputable ' nose' ) - is glorious, I will concede. As for her other skills, i know Bernard Henri Levy has been enjoying them to no end. So there must be something to it!
On a more serious note, I do expect any designer to be able to talk somewhat coherently and intelligently about their work.When I find if they can't, like Guinness, I feel NO incentive to explore. Probably my loss, but I'll take it. ;-)
+Sofie Rheder Daphne, coming from extreme privilege and wealth (the Guinness dynasty, lol), would be pretty insulated against criticism from 'the peasants'. I wouldn't worry about it. In general, with regard to regular people and artists, sure it's good to be considerate. But as we say in Dutch, high trees catch a lot of wind. In my experience artists are usually quite articulate, btw - and so they should be, as their core business is communicating their ideas and vision. With regard to women and criticism: surely they get a whole lot more flak for issues hardly or not relevant to their achievements than men.
lol
+Damsel289 I'd really love to ask u sth if I may; in your opinion, a person's privileged upbringing sheilds them from, say, an articulation disorder, or any speech difficulty by default? I personally find it really cute that she comes off as having "a limited vocabulary", she speaks like every other person and gets criticized -if she were pompous & grandiloquent she'd be crucified too-no winning for her here. I have found that the people who really do "own" sth (be it a talent, a high education, a noble ancestry, money, power, extreme beauty, etc) rarely if at all do they have the need to flaunt & show off, that tendency is usually seen in self-aware, complex-suffering, attention-hungry, status-seeking "nouveau-riches" & social climbers, of which none i believe could be used to describe Daphne Guinness. What's really important though, is that the term "socialite" is one we'd use today when talking about Paris Hilton for instance, or Kim Kardashian- meaning a person who is famous for having money, wearing designer pieces, exhibiting a lavish lifestyle, & more often than not flaunting "outrageous" antics & notorious partying. I do not think Daphne Guinness, Isabella Blow and the such would endear the term for themselves, & frankly I too find it unfit.(👉being heavily used by the media certainly does not mean it's correct or appropriate or whatever!)
She doesn't claim to be anything really & she is allowed to be shy or exclusive, or selective, or even picky, the way we all are. In the Fashion world she's celebrated by its most iconic & renowned people, and she's done (produced&directed ie) Award-nominated films, opera music renditions & various editorials photography & performance projects with amazing artist which are all considered to be "art-pieces". She doesnt party, doesn't provoke with her words or actions and people who know her tend to always comment how shy & down to earth & approachable she is.
So i guess my question (finally! lol) would extend itself to sth like this: what irks u is that she doesn't fit the "super-wealthy-aristocratic-heiress" stereotype u have in mind due to her "affectionate mannerisms" & lack of eloquence, or her supposedly "trying-a-tad-too-hard" to achieve all that "not-fitting" to it ??? Thank you in advance ☺
[PS: artists do want & seemingly need to communicate their Art & message & all, but it's IN NO WAY mandatory to be equally gifted in verbal expression as they are in their chosen field! It's their Art they want to be expressed through, in fact it's exactly not being able to express oneself though speech sometimes that one resides to Art to get through, be it Poetry, Painting, Filming, Modelling Nude for S.Dali, and so on… 😶😏😉 ]
Anastazia R. Hi...that's quite an involved question..lol I find Guinness' initiative sympathetic. Keep in mind though that a socialite and 'super-wealthy-aristocratic-heiress' isn't worth her salt without at least ONE such foundation. People from extreme privilege, like Guinness, have automatic access to anything and everything, and their 'owning' something is a consequence not so much of talent or effort but of the ample, endless chances and opportunities in their way. Of course they don't need to flaunt of show off (although they do): they're beyond that. It doesn't speak in their favor, as you seem to think? It just speaks of their extreme privilege. They will be paid respect and attention as a matter of course. This mumbling she does, is exactly an expression (and known marker) of privilege: she doesn't need to speak up or be articulate - people will exert themselves to exhaustion to understand her and to listen to her. Guinness IS a socialite in the traditional sense: someone who has no need to earn a living, work is a 'hobby' a way to 'express' herself. She fits the 'super-wealthy-aristocratic-heiress' to a tee, in my book, exactly because of the affectation, lack of eloquence, soft-spokenness and phony 'eccentricity'. Nice mention of Dali ;-)
She is surprisingly humble!
Wow! Like me, she loves gothic fashion and science fiction, e.g., _Blade Runner,_ and even hates prints, too! I’d love to meet this wonderfully witchy woman!
I love Daphne's style yes! But I knew Isabella, and I find it a travesty in modern day and times that no one came to her aid in her time and need of depression, save for her husband Detmar, some family and very close friends, oh and some aspiring young fashion graduates who did'nt give a shit(the latter I was one of!) Godbless you Issy and I hope your soul has found peace in a World that could'nt give it to you...and Alexander for that matter.xx
so many of her 'artistic' friends were strung out on cocaine, etc.....messy
It did seem that
Υπάρχουν γυναίκες να αγοράσουν αυτά τα άθλια ρούχα ; εάν ΝΑΙ έχουν την ίδια τρέλλα με τη συγκεκριμένη γυναίκα. Εάν η κυρία αυτή δεν έχει με τη να περάσει την ημέρα Της ..και δηλώνει σχεδιάστρια ..που δεν το έχει το ταλέντο ...της προτείνω να κάνει κάποια φιλανθρωπία!
She seems like she is on something
Luv her clothes ,they are just so chic ,i love her long purple christian Lacroix dress and the brown Alexander mcqueen jacket thats in the background.
what a bright and talented woman. i would die to meet her.
I adore Daphne. She's magnificent in an entirely unselfconcious way.
Most self obsessed Satanic illuminati witch !!! Ha Ha WAKE UP !!! Check out David Icke on Agenda 21 The plan to kill you :-) !!!! Time to wake up freind :-)!!!!
It is rather nice chat between two lovely upper middle class people but my God what a snobbish elistic sound to the performance. It make a rather inadequat interview.
Frederic Pierre because Daphne is a rich aristocrat, not just "upper middle class"
Daphne is a true ambassador of fashion and she has been instrumental in developing many a career. Her foundation sounds incredible and is much needed. I do have a hard time listening to her beyond five minutes. Her manner of speech, intonation and accent is odd or maybe she just gets nervous?
Yeah sometimes when I get nervous (which is mostly all the time) I stutter a lot, and have a hard time processing the word. So it’s definitely hard to talk and make conversation.
she's so...beautiful,
Gosh it's nice to watch something on TH-cam that is not all about cheap and nasty
She certainly speaks her mind, truly eccentric. Trippy.
Gaga now owns the Silver bell dress .... wish i had money like that !!!!!!!
Brilliant insight into Daphne's world. I enjoyed this immensely!
I wonder where she parks her broom..
She drunk?
Yeah on fresh baby blood dude
She’s clearly aging, so that “fresh baby blood” clearly isn’t working. 🙄
I thought so.
Not drunk........ just very posh
Empty woman
satanic
Hi
A true eccentric
Perfection.
Perfection
I want those rings!!! 00:20
Those shoes gotta be uncomfortable!
This was an amazing insight. Daphne and Nick are both so well spoken and intelligent, you are what I love about the industry, keep doing what you do. I can relate to Daphne so much so it's insightful to hear her speak like this
Now if I could only own that collection....
All of these pieces are works of art.
Gorgeous hair!!! wow...... She's so fashion!
Who did she say after Gareth??
musics4me Noritaka Tatehana
Arif who is Gareth?
Loretta Arzaga Gareth Pugh
The way she laughs at 3:40 is the cutest thing ever!
I love her
my muse
She looks so different.
I wish there would be more people like her
People that push her to do what.. wear an outfit?
Amazing.
neato

I can't get over how much of her grandmother is in her face.
