A normal person's guide to understanding a Fashion Week runway show
一份給普通人的時裝周看秀指南
In one of the most dynamic runway shows last fall, Thom Browne ended his Paris presentation with a model dressed in white guiding an enormous unicorn puppet. Two dancers, padded like marshmallows, had opened the show, flitting and twirling across the wooden floor of the majestic City Hall. In between, models crept precariously atop daunting heels in exquisite attire one could never wear to the neighborhood market.
湯姆·布朗以這樣的畫面結束了他在巴黎的時裝展:一位身穿白衣的模特牽著一只巨大的獨角獸木偶。這場時裝秀是上個秋季最有個性的時裝秀之一亿昏。它是這樣開場的峦剔,兩個舞者被包裹得活像棉花糖,他們輕快地跳躍角钩、旋轉著吝沫,踩在木地板上,穿過雄偉的市政廳递礼。其間惨险,模特們小心翼翼的走著,搖搖晃晃地踩著令人望而生畏的高跟鞋脊髓,穿著精致的服飾辫愉,而這些衣服是你永遠不可能穿去家門口的市場的。
What is a casual consumer of fashion supposed to make of such a sight? Photographer Maria Valentino, whose company has shot runway shows for this newspaper and other publications, warns baffled observers: "Don't necessarily take it personally! A show is like an essay, a designer's opinion written in fabric on the body, in a given time period."
一個路人消費者該如何理解這種景象呢将硝?瑪麗亞·瓦倫提諾是個攝影師恭朗,她的公司為本報和其他刊物拍攝時裝秀照片;她提醒那些一頭霧水的觀眾說依疼,“不必把看不懂時尚秀看成是你自己的問題痰腮!一場時裝秀就像一篇論文,在一個特定時間內律罢,設計師把想法寫在布料上膀值,然后被模特穿在身上〉芮蹋”
Runway images are part of a continuum, representing shifts in the culture, changes in the way we think about gender and beauty. A single runway image situates a viewer in a particular era; a series of them serve as a timeline.
T 臺形象作為一個演變體中的一部分虫腋,代表著文化的流轉,以及我們對性別和美在認知上的轉變稀余。一個單獨的 T 臺形象能把觀眾帶回到一個特定的時期,而一系列的 T 臺形象則起到了一種時間線的作用趋翻。
Consider that in the 1980s models were like Amazons—tall and toned, with hourglass figures. The 1990s ushered in the era of waifs, brutally thin but refreshingly quirky, jolie laide. And by the turn of the century, the old obsession with symmetrical bone structure had given way to a desire to showcase racial diversity and gender ambiguity.
要考慮到 1980 年代睛琳,模特好像亞馬遜女戰(zhàn)士一樣高大健美,有著沙漏型的身材踏烙;而 1990 年開啟了一個推崇骨感美的時代师骗,模特們的體型瘦的近乎殘忍,但是卻古怪得別具一格讨惩,其貌不揚卻富有魅力辟癌;到了本世紀,原先人們對勻稱骨架的癡迷被另一種趨勢取代了:一種展示種族多樣性和中性美的渴望荐捻。
Hyperbole and shock on the runway evolve into subtle changes and shifts in your closet. Frayed edges and unfinished hems were once head-spinningly strange. No more. Big shoulder pads come and go, and each time they return they jar the eye—until, suddenly, they don't.
T 臺上夸張和驚奇的設計逐漸變成人們衣櫥里的微小改變和變動黍少。磨邊和撕邊的款式曾經一度奇怪得讓人頭暈目眩寡夹。但現在不會再有這種情況了。大墊肩來了又去厂置,每次這種時尚回歸都十分辣眼睛菩掏,直到突然有一天,它們再也不讓人覺得難以接受了昵济。
