about 2faced1.com

2FACED1.com shows one persons two different faces in photos;

Persona 1:
WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

Persona 2:
WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE
CONSIDERED AS

This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!

 

A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND

A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, color, nationality, gender, sexual orientation and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. Self awareness is a gift, because it also helps you to understand other peoples situations better. To be a 2FACED1 is to have the feet in different worlds, be able to move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and has become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

New York Fashion Week SS 10 - part 2

Post date Wed 16 Sep 2009 8:33 AM

PART 2:

RODARTE

Rodarte keeps embody that warrior princess we love, it's the movie Apocalypto  with a hint of both Jean Paul Gaultier and Vivienne Westwood's older collections. The whole presentation with the green acid light to the body painting makes the collection less "Ethnic" and more interressting. A little minus sign for most of the items looking a bit too alike.

MARC by MARC JACOBS

Mr Marc and me are not at the same pace at the moment. These two maybe excepted, other than that this actually makes me think of Miss Sixty's worst moment...

TEMPERLY LONDON

Last seasons Temperley London became a new favorite, I like this one too but could have done without some studs but the handcraft is very beautiful once again. See T L on modells over here

MATTHEW AMES

Some of you might find it strange that I love Matthew Ames, this is purism for sure, and Im fascinated by the way his clothes are simple, nearly looking banal-like the stuff your mum made to herself in the 70'ies, but at the same time extremly well done in the finest of fabrics. He's into a silouette that not many reached (back) at yet, some from the japanese 80 ies which I love. Mr Ames is not your average American fashion designer.
