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.

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!

We were lucky enough to get Tom from the Boogaloo Crew, Same Teens and Murkage Cartel down
to play some tunes through the night. Big up to everyone that came down!

London Fashion Week

London Fashion Week ...

by Guy Purssell

At the beginning of a new year I generally ponder what will have happened in 12 months time, and I can tell you quite honestly walking down a catwalk at London Fashion Week was certainly not one of the ones I had foreseen. So a good 9 and a bit months later, to find myself walking down a catwalk, with lights, cameras and hundreds of eyes focusing on me was bizarre to say the very least.

LFW 1 . LFW 3

It was an amazing experience, no question. From the minute I was scouted at 1234 Festival in Shoreditch Park to model for 1.Wo/Man, a very large proportion of my thoughts were on London Fashion Week. 1.Wo/Man are a group of young budding designers, taken on by the BBC Blast, starting with minimal experience, only to excel and put on their own show at London Fashion Week. That was something that I’m proud to have been part of.

All members of 1.Wo/Man were absolutely lovely, and incredibly motivated. It is evident that they all have bright futures ahead of them. They stated in their manifesto that ‘conformity does not interest us’ and quite clearly their outstanding outfits did not conform, an example of this was the blue jumpsuit I modelled. I turned up at around midday at the venue – 180 The Strand . Yet this wasn’t the first arrival, no. I had to “arrive” a good few times for the cameras!

LFW 5 . LFW 2

The atmosphere backstage was electric, it was the culmination of a lot of hard work for the whole of 1.Wo/Man.

We were told not to smile, but don’t look gloomy and don’t look at anyone.Some found it harder than others, but it definitely went without a single hindrance.

Walking down the catwalk feels like you’re dancing – you’re following the beat of the music blaring out over the PA. The experience was one that I am more than eager to have again – it is all rather addictive.
1.Wo/Man are planning on putting on another show next year, which is definitely something to look forward to, especially as they have already embraced the idea of me modelling again for them!
