I like that you are exploring designers that care more about the art than the hype. I'm not a big fashion person, but I love these interviews and hearing their narratives.
It´s clear that now big brands recognize the value of your work and now you have exlusive access. You are a great communicator and deserve all the recognition! Congrats, keep it going!
@BlissFoster.. sorry I´m maybe too old school and dont have Telegram... 😅 I´m curious about the prize still. But if its not posible, it´s ok, someone else gets to be lucky! Thanks Bliss!
The Kolor look was so so so beautiful, I absolutely adore that kind of movement in clothing and it was almost surreal despite, like you said, how simple it was.
Great coverage as always, and excited to see some of the names added to this particular edit. Ziggy Chen in particular has been like a "Top Ten" brand for me for several years now and I'm happy to see them catch your eye. Ziggy Chen falls into a remarkably small list for me of brands where I think to myself, "If I could get the clothes for free in exchange for agreeing to EXCLUSIVELY wear that brand and nothing else, I would consider it."
Dude, this is your most important video to date, imo. Having the ability to vicariously witness fashion, for me, is incredible in itself - let alone realizing the impression of the movement, texture, presence of clothing… Smell? Seeing you interact with everyone from known to breakout designers is fantastic. Bliss, you’re so professional yet personable and therefore personal. Showing your genuine interest and intellect regarding their passion is all that an artist, let alone a person, could really ask for. I’m always impressed and captivated by your content and I feel that I’ve learned so much from a humble TH-camr who is bursting with potential. Super excited to see where life takes you, thank you for everything! - Maxwell
So much here… thank you It’s so impressive how Jonathan Anderson pushing creative boundaries with both Loewe and JW Anderson I loved your commentary about Margiela and how John Galliano is bringing so much of himself while maintaining key Margiela characteristics further demonstrating John’s genius… he is almost other-worldly Salmon leather??? Incredible… sustainability genius
Thank you soooo much Bliss! Again, you did a fantastic job and you never disappoint! That is why I did not hesitate to become one of your patreons and will continue to be! I can count on you to make me discover up and coming talents and as well, well thought comments. Love Ziggy Chen and I totally agree with you in regards to Galliano taking over Margiella house. He is the BEST choice for that brand and sooo happy that he has come back to fashion. Josée du Québec!
I particularly enjoyed the Maison Margiela collection. John Galliano has channeled the essence of this brand and yet made it his own. This show in particular mixed the deconstruction that I associate with the label and combined it with more classic elements, such as veiled hats for men and women, retro handbags, and stiletto pumps. One of the designer's favourite models, Leon Dame, always brings his unique personality to every show.
The heat press that was used to heat-form the coat sounds very much like the heat presses that were used at the turn of the last century for corsets. Essentially they used a metal dress form with perforations in it. Steam was then funneled through the form to help the boning ease into shape on the form as the last step in producing corsets for retail sales. In the Simington Factory in England (now a museum that sells PDF's of their stock of corset designs, including the famous "Merry Housewife") this was considered to be a 'mans job'. Nice to see the technology has been brought forward into this century... well done Loewe. Stillness as an esthetic is fascinating. It's fascinating to hear the behind-the-scenes, thought process that went into the various shows. And the opportunity to examine the clothing up-close-and-personal is simply stunning. Thank you. Fish leather is something I want to play with in my leatherwork. To my mind, having work in the food industry for a number of years, my theory is the atmosphere behind the runway-shows is a measure to how well a company will do. Happy people do their best work - don't buy from the 'yell-y pants' - you're wearing someone else's fear. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

I have always agreed with what you have said and also what Rick said in the infamous „learn how to make clothes dont do sketches and collages „ but I am not going to lie, materials, fabrics, equipment, even a mannequin are so expensive and as someone trying to now get into college with no prior training or knowledge it feels so frustrating buying fabric and then basically wasting it because I dont know how to sew, draft pattern etc etc yet
Been keeping my eye on Songzio for a while now, thanks for featuring them! Also 10/10 tip, visit Korea to buy pieces, you can get them for so much less compared to stockists abroad. Also subscribing to the Patreon for the LEB interview, big thanks.
29:09 I am not anything close to a Serious Fashion Person, but I do like looking at nice clothes on pretty bodies, and the Ludovic (Ludovich?) stuff all looks sexy and actually wearable, as opposed to some of the stuff that looks more like it belongs on a mannequin in an art museum than some poor shmuck trying to actually wear it to something.
Not to be that person but the designer of doublet’s name is pronounced EE-no, not EYE-no (it’s the same as the i in issey miyake) Great video as always! Thanks for taking is to all the showrooms especially, i love seeing the clothes in detail!
Ok serious question, do you have a source for this? 😅 I’ve been trying to figure out how to pronounce that name for a year and I have it split half and half for each answer 😂
Love the video! I have. a suggestion for future views like this, it would be great if you added chapters for each designer, would just be a nice way to see what's coming and to be able to come back to the video later on!
Stefano Pilati is such a gorgeous designer, very underrated which is a shame. By the way, Ludovic is pronounced LudoviK 😆 French is hard, I feel for you 😉
Great video as always! Just one totally vague and completely unrelated note for the suggestion box: I’d like to see more non-guy/dude/male designers discussed in general. I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve seen here and loved the coverage for people like Rei and Bianca Saunders, and I’d love to see more. One name often dropped that I know practically nothing about, (being a regular-tegular person [don’t ask me why that makes me laugh, I just don’t know]) is Ann Demeulemeester. Love to see more on her and the whole Antwerp 6 story maybe? Maybe that’s a played-out, already covered topic, in which case I’d love it if someone could point me toward videos covering that subject. Anyway, carry on and keep doing a fantastic job! Been dropping in and out of your work for a while as life gets crazy but I’m working my way through the backlog of videos on Patreon.
Hey, just a quick pronunciation note, for LDSS, Ludovic is not pronounced the Serbian way, since Ludovic de Saint Sernin is French, it's a quick k, as you would pronounce Ludovik. It's the French version of the germanic derivative for Louis, Ludwig, and as such is quite a short, percussive last sound. By the way, the Serbian -ić suffix is usually written with the accented ć to denote the way it is pronounced.
Yo fun fact (not really all that fun) one of my mates in Turkey actually submitted that lion dress design for an Italian school and what do you know after a few weeks the exact design comes out. I mean the exact thing. Honestly, such a shame, fashion is dead.
@@Bei.Incubi.Omnus. Yea, but suing one of these guys when you are a Turkish student with basically no backing with money is near impossible. People don't even know that it's stolen because going against these big names in fashion is just not possible, unfortunately :/
@@Bei.Incubi.Omnus. stealing designs from people? cheaper fabrics, and sold at the same price as high value ones, quantity over quality, the fact so many pieces on runways these days are not even complete and fastened with cheats because of the industry
@@Bei.Incubi.Omnus. and of course what I said is an overexaggeration, especially not intending to dismiss the skill and craftsmanship of those who do create the pieces, and aswell as those forced to work in the sweatshops. it's sad seeing them becoming more and more similar.
These past few weeks in Québec (Canada) there were days where it was going down to about minus 30 to 38°Celcius. To illustrate, you said in the vid that it was about 21F° which is equivalent minus5°Celcius ahah to us it ins't even considered that cold ahah if you want to experience to feel truly freezing temperature come here during the coldest part of winter! :) (btw I know it's not what this video is about ahah)
I dont want to be absolutely foolish, and maybe this is really inappropriate to say, but: The Ziggy Chen Show reminds me of the Holocaust, in particular of Ausschwitz. The Place in whic this happens, this old barn like building, the heavy iron doors with the giant locks on it. The cold Stone floor. The way the models stand in a line in front of the wall as if they are being examined by the viewers.The run down way of the clothing, the grey colour palet and especially the striped pieces. This combined with the old vibe of tailoring those clothings have really just sends shivers down my spine. Maybe its really just me but it was the first thing i thought about when seeing this collection. It reminded me of my visit of Ausschwitz and the clothing of the victims they showed there...
I love how you gasped over salmon leather as if you didn't already know that Proenza Schouler did fish skins a decade ago, sans the sushi restaurant context.
@@BlissFoster shizzles... I spoke too soon without having details on my mind.. I want to say 2010s? It was a small collection of accessories but (almost) definitely was on the runway
Fish leather is not a new product! Its been manufactured and used since hundreds of years especially in Japan. During WW2 there were a lot of fish leather production in isolated Germany.

Thanks so much, Suzie! I really appreciate you believing in what we're doing :)
the tabi stairs just made my heart happy

Fish leather is not a new product! Its been manufactured and used since hundreds of years especially in Japan. During WW2 there were a lot of fish leather production in isolated Germany. My mum bought an eel leather bag 20 years ago, doesn't smell at all and looks great. So I have no idea what they were talking about.
