    Interview. Byronesque and the Value of Fashion History

    Interview. Byronesque and the Value of Fashion History

    Fashion archives are living in a new era. Not only are luxury fashion brands investing in rebuilding their own past, but a new definition and consumption of vintage clothing is emerging. The revival of the past has become more than an expression of nostalgia. Rather, it is an answer to today’s mass production and consumption. We asked Gill Linton, co-founder of Byronesque – the online editorial-based shop for contemporary vintage fashion – to lead us through the intricate world of ‘future vintage’. Together we reflect on the practice of commercialising the past and its potential for reaffirming values that the fashion industry has forgotten, but that may come back. Interview by Marco Pecorari and photography by Maxime Ballesteros.

Inspired by model images. Essay by Andrea Kollnitz

    Fashion Visionary. Interview with Nathalie Dufour

After all, fashion is a field involving many different professions that bring their respective knowledge, network and expertise together in order to realize a designer’s vision. This is something Nathalie Dufour knew when she set up the prestigious ANDAM award in 1989. Paris was famous for launching international names, but the French were lacking the necessary entrepreneurial spirit and managerial skills. Interview by Philippe Pourhashemi

    “Conventional surfaces are no longer what they once seemed, imbuing everyday reality with fantasy, feeling and the freedom to experience clothing in new ways. As fashion finds ways to make the virtual and the physical converge, the surfaces lining our bodies may begin to conceal the challenges we face, or provide temporary escapes from the […]
