An inspirational soul.

I really enjoyed this interview with Yohji Yamamoto, about his solo exhibition at the V&A last year.  I was so sad I couldn't make it to London for the show.

This interview is an incredibly interesting view into the life of a designer who I much admire and who rarely gives such long interviews.  It offers a great insight into his life's work. A self confessed 'fashion hater', I find much inspiration in his approach to an unsustainable industry which focuses on constant change and constant disposal of that which is not worn out.

A gentle and ambitious soul and master in my mind Yohji Yamamoto offers me constant inspiration through his dedication to perfecting the dying art of making, through fashion.

Freeckin FREEZING



Apparently, there was snow in Victoria yesterday, down to 900 metres.  Well, I believe it.  This morning, and don't be deluded by the sunshine in the pictures, my face was actually frozen...in shock...as I stumbled back into the house after a brief morning stroll.  The wind here is FREEZING but the countryside is inspirational.  Looks like I wont be here for much longer so I'm soaking it all up whilst I can.
