SARAH YOUNG’S TOP 3 FASHION| MUSIC | ART

Welcome to my top 3 Fashion, Music Art countdown, there is no excuse to be out of the loop, If you don’t know, now you know! Simples!

FASHION

Daddy / Son Duo Charlie and Joe Casely- Hayford are ripping up the fashion industry as we speak! Taking it back to the bygone era of tailored suits, tweeds, double breast jackets and blindingly shiny shoes their fashion house is nothing but classic old skool glamour with a touch of the London Streetwear aesthetic. Check them out here

MUSIC

Mr Party Hard aka Donaeo has wowed me with this brand new summer banger ‘I’m Fly’, i challenge you NOT to bop when you hear this in the club. Listen to my thoughts and the track on Audio Boo.

Listen!

ART

Laura Keeble is my kinda artist. She makes clever visual metaphors and uses popular iconography and gives them a totally new, different meaning ( Andy Warhol anyone?)

She once said the graveyard installation below was to do with religion, but i read much more meaning into it than just simply that. In my view through placing the Chanel and Mcdonalds logo directly on top of the gravestone ( a recognisable symbol of death) Keeble is commenting on the worth and perhaps the effect of capitalism. Big brands have no individual face or life behind them, so if you buy into them part of your individuality dies, if you buy into a faceless brand, you loose face.

Whatever the meaning, this is pretty sick right?

SARAH YOUNG | FASHION FILM | STYLING FOR THE MOVING IMAGE

As a stylist i prefer styling for the moving image, i feel it shows the garments off in much more realistic , more beautiful way.

I have never been the type of stylist to dress the models or artists at videos or shoots and then sit down and chill. I think any good stylist should be well versed in art direction and not only know their fashion but elements such as videography, photography, direction and ALL that techno ish! If you go on set knowing your stuff you command much more authority anyway.

So after seeing enough very talented male directors do their thing, and never being one to give into gender stereotypes, i thought i would switch up the roles and give being behind the camera a go.

Releasing my frustrated inner geek and learning how to use my extreme bossiness / anal-ness to my advantage, I directed and styled my first ever fashion film for a fashion week project.

A film concentrating on the idea of interracial relationships and combating societies prejudices and racisms.

Difference is beautiful. Enjoy!

Boxfresh ‘wallpaper’ to decorate our NYE party house!

Our NYE party is shaping up to be the party we always thought it was going to be. Forget the disapointment which took place at the turn of the millenium, the first pulsating minutes of 2010 are going to be the best ever.

Not only will it sound surr-weet (Kleptones, The Whip, Russell autoKrtaz and ourselves to name just a few of the DJs) but our house-inside-a-club is likely to be the most stylish house you’ve ever partied at. Our mate Jessica designed this wall paper which will be adorning the boys’ bedroom wall.

No way is that a Boxfresh SPACE INVADER poster, you ask. Yes it is, and we think it’s gonna look pretty cool alongside all the other junk which you’d expect in a teens’ room.

Here’s all the information you need to know about our House Party: http://www.myboxfresh.com/?p=4533&preview=true

We also have this to cure your (likely) hangover…

Okay, so you’ve managed to make it through New Year’s eve, but along the way you’ve misplaced a few friends and a few braincells (part for the course, really…). Well, here’s a chance for you to recover both friends and braincells while either working off those last few joules of energy, or simply kicking back in a beanbag with a cocktail…

Yup, following on from “The best House Party you’ve ever been to” at the Ruby Lounge on New Year’s Eve, THE KLEPTONES will be taking up residence in the lounge at Hatter’s Hostel on the following afternoon to celebrate the flipside of their new double album “Uptime / Downtime”, which will be released at Midnight on 01/01/10.

There’ll be brunch and bloody marys to help revive you, and special guests, including our friends from MURKAGE CARTEL (fresh from their own NYE insanity at Sankeys), will be joining Eric Kleptone to provide the perfect soundtrack to ease you into 2010.

That makes for a perfect end to the night for you dirty stop outs, and fine restarter session for those of you who have managed to get some kip and are back out for another hard day’s night.

Space will be limited, but entrance is free, so RSVP names to nyd10@kleptones.com by 12 noon on New Year’s Eve to ensure yourselves a beanbag!
