Cool Collector # D.I.Y. Files
During my summerbreak, the D.I.Y. issue of the dutch trendmagazine Second Sight came out. In this issue you can find a interesting contribution by moi! It’s an article about how D.I.Y.trend is getting it’s comeback in youth culture and how the new D.I.Y trend is different from the D.I.Y trend during Punk in the late seventies and early eighties. It gives a explanation about why and how youngsters use symbolism of brands to create their own ‘individual’ style and reflects on how brands can use this trend instead of feel threatened by it!

Cool Collector # Editorial Files
This editorial really looks very refreshing to me, is it the religious spirit? Or is it the fresh leaves and other greeny things? I really like the way fashionshots are combined with layers of shots of touchable things. It gives the images more feeling I guess. You can find this editorial ‘ave Maria’ in the July issue of Harper’s Bazaar The styling was done by Natalia Aleverd

This editorial in this month’s Dazed & Confused is incredible! It made me think about that awful 80’s tv-series Bigfoot. I suppose that’s because of all that hair and brown tones! The way the stylist combined the structure of the fabrics with the structure of the surroundings is absolutely amazing! Love it! The styling was done by Karen Langley and was lensed by photographer Tierney Gearon.
Dear Readers,
The holiday break is over! Not completely because I got some interesting projects during my ‘summer break’ which made my ‘summer break’ more of ‘summer job’. Since monday I’ve been surfing the web to find out which cool stuff I’ve missed and it’s a lot, so I have a lot of catching up to do! The following summer weeks will be not as up-to-date as usual because I’m still sort of in my ‘summermode’. The Cool Collector will be in it’s usual form in September!
