Nickelson Wooster. Thank you for being you!

The quintessentially stylish man I have come across (on the internet). And thank God I did! I was working on a menswear collection and wherever I seeked for inspiration, pictures of him kept popping up, and I realized I knew this face from somewhere.. was he an actor? A musician?! A writer perhaps… Ah no, not quite any of those. My resources suggests he was the creative director for certain big brands, including jcpenny. Impressive. I can almost say for sure he must be damn good with his job. Such class. Style. God.

Detail and fit are key, in his clothes. Perfectly tailored, he wears stuff as if it were made for him, and only him. Not a button that should be left unbuttoned would be unbuttoned [and vice versa], who says you can’t wear checks on checks? Stripes on stripes? No one. Colours mismatched in the most appealing way. That’s Nick Wooster. He’s traditional in a not so traditional way. He’s conventional in an unconventional manner. Total badass.

He’s made quite the charismatic presence on blogs, websites, etc, everything from the hairstyle, to the shades to the totally rad tattoos, to how he dresses himself, that moustache, not a freaking hair out of place, talking of hair- don’t let the silver mass on his head fool you… he’s still in his early 50’s. Okay wait, I’m getting carried away. All I mean to say is he’s rocking his look.

I should stop before I make it sound like I’m in love with the guy. Just that there’s always endless admiration for folks who dress beautifully that makes me appreciate fashion even more, and shows everybody how much fun you can have from playing with fabrics, the colours, style and so on. That’s where we, people who appreciate fashion connect. See, fashion is when you can look at someone, and feel the impact from what they’re wearing. The statement that gets made. This guy, he pretty much nailed that. And if you call that being in love with fashion, then be it!

Respect.

The rainbow at the end of the storm

The title pretty much covers the situation/feeling/moment etc. This is it. Our big fashion show is in 2 days… unfortunately I don’t have sneak peek pictures this time! Was too busy to keep that one little thing in mind. So much work went for this, I really hope the show’s gonna be one of the greatest nights for me! Oh and for those who’re graduating too, of course. It’s rightfully their night.

The Fashion Show @ MOD’ART INTERNATIONAL

See that, so you know WHY I’m looking forward to this so much. Besides, I get to showcase two garments this year, which more or less means double the joy… as well as double the stress it took me to get this far!

As the year is ending (academic year, people), I can say I’ve come pretty far, I’m happy with the progress and I can only hope for a better, much more kickass last year of Mod’Art! This year has helped me actually understand the course, and that whole “need” to do the course became more of a “want” … and also to be one of the best.

Be back after the big night. Promise a post of our show. See ya’ll then! Night bloggers!

On another note, I know it’s only the start of the week, but relax a little, have a slice of some fun looking cake. [The day after my show, I plan to buy a whole freaking rainbow cake like the one below, and have the happiest weekend. ;] Hey, no one’s gonna judge me for planning ahead now would they.. don’t answer that.]
