Fashion Reviews; Famous Quotations: on Common Ground
It is interesting to note how historic events impacts on fashion through the ages to modern times. And icons of years gone by, their quotations and philosophies have surfaced time and time again, as new generations discover their true meanings and adopt them to suit.
Often associated with styles of the era, it can be said that these philosophies are as constant as style.
So to be really different we have mixed some famous quotations with abstract fashion reviews, so learning becomes a double edged sword.
And, Some Famous Quotations by Albert Einstein, which surfaced timely during the 60’s hippy era.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
"I never think of the future. It comes soon enough."
When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge."
Review
A Tapestry Of Tartan In A Tie; Direct from the Vivienne Westwood Fashion House, a vividly colourful collection of handmade silk ties, including this rendition of the classic tartan in true form. A mixture of navy and sky blue, pink, tulip and orange on richly textured silk twill.
Quotation
"If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.
I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music. ... I get most joy in life out of music."
Historic Chapter
French and British find common ground; Silk tie by Louis Feraud, Cufflinks by London Badge and Button. And adding flavour to cultural diversity, native wildflowers from Kings Park Botanic Gardens Perth Western Australia.
The Battle of Waterloo, The Eureka Stockade and the birth of the military style, later popularised by Tommy Nutter, renowned tailor to the Beatles and Rolling Stones.
On February 26th 1815, barely ten months after the end of the Peninsular War, Napoleon sailed from Elba to bring about the end of his brief period of exile. It was the beginning of the final, momentous chapter of the Napoleonic Wars that would culminate in the great battle of Waterloo and Napoleon's final downfall.
Quotations
"I have no particular talent. I am merely inquisitive."
"It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.”
Product Review
Silverado: Here, a fine collection of men’s cufflinks from Birmingham and beyond. Fashioned from malleable silver and combined with classic and contemporary materials from enamel to resin. Each piece is unique in its own right, and, due to good design their value is retained for many years to come, ready to hand down to the next generation.
Quotation
Confrontation conquers fear, hope arises, truth unfolds. Fear is merely a state of mind; there is no substance to it. Realising this fact temporarily frees the mind of the compounds of fear.
Historic Chapter
The Eureka rebellion, which is often referred to as the 'Eureka Stockade' is a key event in the development of Australian democracy and Australian identity, with some people arguing that ‘Australian democracy was born at Eureka’ (Clive Evatt). In addition, the principles of mateship, seen to be adapted by the gold diggers, and the term ‘digger’ was later adopted by the ANZAC soldiers in World War I.
Quotation
The Little Red Book; Thoughts Of Moa On Art and Fashion: Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing socialist culture in our land. Different forms and styles in art should develop freely and contend freely. We think that it is harmful to the growth of art and science if administrative measures are used to impose one particular style of art or school of thought and to ban another. Questions of right and wrong in the arts and sciences should be settled through free discussion in artistic and scientific circles and through practical work in these fields. They should not be settled in summary fashion.
Product reviews Four
The 60’s: Reminiscent of the sixties flower power era. Subsequently it triumphed in every decade since. Also The Monkees hit number one Billboard Charts with hit song “I’m A Believer” penned by Neil Diamond.
Bright And Beautiful: Like all things bright and beautiful, gratification is finding out. Why flowers are chosen by designers? They reflect the brilliant hues of nature and easily found in, linen, silk, wool and cotton, condensed into all forms of decoration for us to appreciate.
Children Of The Revolution; “Iconic Influences” The “Icons Cufflink Collection”, featuring, Che Guevara, Sir Winston Churchill and Marilyn Monroe are brought to vibrant life, using sterling silver, enamel and Swarovski Crystals to create instantly recognisable forms. But, unfortunately, nowhere to be seen, is the formidable Fidel Castro, however he needs no introduction and, highly respected. T-rexs’ hit song best describes “Children of the Revolution” We’ve displayed Che Guevara before. And, do so again in honour of Fidel Castro’s 50 year experiment.
