THE TWAT

JOURN. MAG IS OUT

Some of you will remember I posted a promotional video a while ago.

Well that video was promoting JOURN. , a free e-zine that is meant to be your biannual dose of "The Twat Blog" compressed on a single pdf (you lucky bunnies).

JOURN. is, practically, a recollection of things that every twat should be aware of: A strictly informative e-paper with the same randomly selected contents of a blog ( WHOOO THE MISSING LINK BETWEEN DIGITAL AND TRADITIONAL FASHION PUBLISHING WHOOO I AM REALLY CLEVER).

The launch issue is the "Red Lights Life" issue, and it gives you the same unsatisfactory feeling of an arty tumblr with randomly sourced images and occasional gifs taken straight off Mean Girls.

But at least it has some boobs by the end.

So I guess it's all good innit?

No but seriously.

Download it from the link on your right or from here.

If you don't it means you stink like poo and it's really not my fault but you know whatever is not me it's you so you had it coming don't say I didn't warn you.

So good to see you back.

Kanye West ss12

AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAAAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Givenchy ss12

No.

Kenzo ss12

argh.

I promised myself to stay faithful to Antonio Marras and give a really shit review for Humberto Leon and Carol Lim's debut at Kenzo.

Thing is.

I really can't?

The collection is actually real fun, and the silhouettes are actually very well assorted.

And c'mon everyone's likes a bit of sportswear.

I dunno you but I have a bloody good feeling about these two.

ps. Chloe, what's happened?

ET VOILA LA CROQUE MADAME (Rochas ss12)

and all the kids goes: hey I can't speak french I really can't.

BUT:

I will say Rochas.

I will say Rochas because I really loved it:

ok, no really, ok. I know some of you might think that it looks like a Prada AW10 rip off, but it is in fact really intelligently designed.

The cinematic theme has also been key for Marios Schwab in London, but the take is completely different in here: these women are not seaside's femme fatale, these are proper neorealist Mamma Roma's with serious Audrey Hepburn aspirations.

I mean, the layering of references is so thick you could slice it and serve it with clotted cream on the side.

AND, HELLO? PASTEL TONE MESH COATS ANYONE?

"You say it best when you say nothing at all"

gareth pugh.

Dear you. You can graduate only once: Everybody had enough of this amatorial shit.

Dazed you were wrong.

Sometimes I think: "What would I think if I would see a girl dressed like this on the street?"

I WOULD THINK THAT IT'S BETTER TO LEAVE PRIMARK TO THEM TOURISTS.

Thom Browne ss12

Being a blogger kind of legally allowes me to abuse of a sort of cringe inducing lingo, but as a matter of professionality and personal taste I never indulged in such trivial lexical behaviour.

But I can say that this is totes the new thing and everybody kinda shud kneel and hail Thom Browne as the funniest and wittiest sartorial nerd in the city. "I love". "Cool". "Adore". "Glamour". "Genial". "Totally". "Like". "Poo".

Sorry I just had to.
