For the second run of the BL retrospective at the Cinemateca Brasileira, which incidentally is based in a beautiful building through whose glass floors you can see the relics of previous train lines that ran through the ground and is a former slaughter house - a fact that made me think of the butcher turned fashion artist and the parallels of these worlds which I'd like to question Bert of Yorkshire Pearl on once I get a chance. In line with some emotional upheaval I had been through that day, I chose to dress in red and gray- silver, a contrast that reminds me of my favourite conceptual animal - the Phoenix. Ashes upon fire, living through the deaths in a manner to merely be reborn stronger. I wore a layered shoulder emphasized Burberry short sleeve trench to bring out the winged creature I felt such an affinity with.
