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, nationality, gender, sexuality 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. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.

London Fashion Week SS 10 pt. 2

Post date Thu 24 Sep 2009 7:19 PM

Further down you read my intro to London Fashion Week "Yet the liberal spirit of this movement is still floating over the London Fashion Scene as a whole and makes it more varigating than other citys fashion weeks." Next up is the houses (or more likely cribs sometimes) of:

FASHION EAST

As you know Holly Fulton is the answer for graphic designing fashion heads like me, this one spins off where last collection ended  and is precisly as good as that one, Art Deco for 2010!

TWENTY8TWELWE

What i wanted Axl Rose's girlfriend to look like in 1990= that means I feel this!


AQUASCUTUM

Lovely mixing of gowns and military jackets, perfect for Prepster girls!

BASSO & BROOKE

The digital printing pioneers Basso & Brooke have today a bunch of followers using the same technique, wich might mean they need to move forward faster....
This collection is not their best one but the duo is still on of my favs!

FASHION FRINGE

The best of Fashion Fringe is designers Elliot Atkinson flowery deconstruction ("feminine" materials vs. architechtonic construction)

and Jenna Theo's orient draping (+ for lovely make up...I can't get enough of wine colored lipstick!)!


 

JENDEN

Some adorable dresses and a wearable suit, easy like a Sunday morning I guess...

 

MARIO SCHWAB

That  Margiela idea of deconstructing, mixing up unexpected materials and fabrics, mismatching vs matching, again

 

BUBURRY PORSUM

Drapings again, interesting take one the classic coat

PETER JENSEN

Over all to cute for me but hey a hoodie like this one just have to get it's space!
