the right: being ambitious enough to push fashion forward relentlessly
going to parsons right next to the byrant park more than a decade ago, my friend & classmate, somsack, and i never missed our semiannual chance to sneak into the new york shows. it’s the time of the year that awkward beauties roam the pavement on 7th avenue. however, the excitement would be replaced by disappointment in a new york minute. adding to the confusion were the warm reviews to obviously ugly collections by most magazines and their critics. that was when i discovered the guiding words of cathy horyn.
it was never about her personal taste and her friends. she is not interested in fame. her writing is about fashion journalism, understanding of fashion, and pushing us forwards. ideas and concepts matter. it’s more inspirational than any mood board you would find in any design studio. go on. read on the runway.
