After a Fashion

Finalized *full* images!

I was shopping with some friends of mine yesterday at one of my favorite stores (Composition) and I found something that my life was apparently quite incomplete without - a copy of Surface Magazine’s Spring Fashion Issue!

Just to show you all HOW FABULOUS this magazine is, I’ve uploaded a few shots. Please forgive my messy desk - I gave up on my scanner and decided to just take photos after a while.

It’s definitely modern… where else can you find a mention of Ligne Roset, contemporary architecture and fashion in the same mag!?

Isn’t this just the most marvelous thing ever!? Call me crazy but with a combination like Lagerfeld and Allen, in my eyes, you can’t go wrong!

As a total Madonna fan, I felt that the new releases of the FW09 Louis Vuitton campaign were a complete necessity here…

Doesn’t this just make you simply yearn for more?

Leaked photo; more to come!

I’ve realized that I don’t add any images of my personal style to posts on After a Fashion. Yes… it’s true.

This is because of a few simple reasons.

1. I’d rather leave these kinds of posts to well-known names, such as Fashion Pirate, Tavi and BryanBoy et al. I think you’d appreciate their style more than my trying-too-hard/pretentious prep-school-kid-image anyways… I’m not, just fyi…

2. I’m not exactly plus-sized, but I’m certainly not a twig. And I do loves me some chocolate cupcakes mmmm…

3. I use too many ellipses… which isn’t relevant to one’s personal fashion, but it is here for some reason…

3. I don’t spend enough on clothes for myself. (D&G jeans excluded for this statement please…) As a matter of fact, I spend way too much money on womenswear - not for me obviously, for models in my photoshoots! I’m not a drag queen… yet ;)

In conclusion, I will probably never post images of myself besides those already up. :( After-a-Fashion has redefined it’s niche from a regurgitator of fashion news to a supplier of original design ideas. Don’t worry, we’ll still be running the same editorial content you’re used to… but in a more modern perspective… + designs. yay!

I’ve completely skipped coverage (my normal shindig) on the Resort 2010 shows (just less than a month ago).

Also, I’ve skipped both the Menswear SS2010 shows in Milan and the *commencing* shows in Paris that are happening at the time of this writing.

The latter, if of course, rather irrelevant because menswear isn’t the foremost on lists of must-see fashion shows. However, on a side note: the models at the D&G menswear SS10 show were absolutely scrumptious!

Instead of providing editorial content - which, I’m sure, you just all adore ;)… I’ve been watching movies… lots and lots of movies; Moulin Rouge and Chicago just to name a few. Additionally, I’ve been up in the mountains at a retreat garnering some much needed relaxation and shooting another AAF Original Photoshoot.

Finally, you all know what’s coming… Don’t be shy, you know that It’s Coming. Just wait until July 10th, I have something planned that will absolutely knock you off your feet! … or at the very least: those obscenely-priced stilettos … don’t you know that the era of the towering heel is over? Take that Prada!

Anyway, I hope to post some new and interesting stuff very soon. Remember, you can always reach me (the Editor-in-Chief) at Christian@After-a-Fashion.com.
