(via thereisnotime) omg what magazine is this editorial in? i want it :c

I had to hunt through my magazine stack before I found which one this came from (I remembered it had Kate Moss on the cover), but it’s Designer Double Take in US Harper’s March 2010, Iris Strubegger shot by Karl (that link doesn’t have the Rei page, unfortunately, so here’s another link with watermarks).  I really liked the styling on some of these - pretty cool.  This issue also had a Almodovar editorial that was kinda odd/kinda neat…

"The main pillar of my activity is making clothes, but this can never be the perfect and only vehicle of expression. I am always thinking of the total idea, and the context of everything. Fashion alone is so far from being the whole story. It seems that with fashion, as with art, things are getting easier in one sense, but at the same time it is getting harder to be stimulated about things or excite people. Without that impetus of creation, progress is not possible. All kinds of ways of expression are spreading out all over the place, information is overflowing, and it’s harder and harder to be excited about anything. In order to be stimulated or moved in the future, we probably have to go into space and look at our world from there.

What do I think is an unyielding spirit? It would be wonderful if everyone had it in equal measure. But it’s impossible. This defiant mentality can also be called the fight against absurdity and injustice and the power (authority) that thrives around it (that is rampant). One cannot fight the battle without freedom. I think the best way to fight that battle, which equals the unyielding spirit, is in the realm of creation. That’s exactly why freedom and the spirit of defiance is the source (fountainhead) of my energy."
