    Imagine of talented designers made clothes for the masses, a la top shop. That would be fucking revolutionary. Oh and add in some sizes beyond size 10 and you are out of the fucking universe. Where is my fashion revolution (fashion, fashion revolution, mmm..mmm).

    This situation is truly dire. I finally graduated fashion school just a few months after the bottom dropped out & despite having what I've been told is an impressive resume & portfolio, neither I or any of my graduating class peers have been able to find work in the industry commensurate with our ability or experience.

    I gravitated toward fashion as a livelihood because, aside from my passion for clothes & art, it seemed the only creative industry that truly embraced women in business & allowed for independent pro-activity. The current landscape is disheartening, but fashion remains my first & last love, & the only career in which I can see myself completely fulfilled. Economy be damned, I'm not throwing in the towel any time soon.

    @doit2julia: Is there any opportunities for doing what you love outside of the established channels? I know my industry - journalism - is having some similar issues, albeit for different reasons, yet some really cool, interesting things have been done by people who used technology do to their own things.

    @whynotshesaid: I have some ideas. A lot of fashion people are currently going the small-scale DIY route these days & readying business models & investor proposals for the (*fingers crossed*) economic recovery.

    I'm looking to re-establish my own online vintage shop. I did so pretty successfully during school but eventually had to abandon the venture as it began to compete my escalating academic demands. It was decent money-maker, & even with retail numbers where they are, it should pay the rent once I get it going again.

    I lost my job a couple months ago, and generally when I hear of recession losses my heart bleeds. In all these photos, I can see their beauty of their work, but it is hard to muster emotion from an industry who has looked upon me and announced me grotesque and unworthy of wearing beautiful things. It is all so grim.

    I cannot stand celebrities who think that they could actually design when really they can't. There are people out there that live, breathe, and die in fashion everyday. Those that break their breaks and do all they can to break into the business. But many don't have the financial backing or celebrity backing *cough* Zac Posen...
    I've never came across a celebrity design that I like. They hire underlings to do all the work then stamp their name on the product. Fashion is a game to them when its life to others...

    This might be a stupid question, but if you guys hate what goes on in fashion mags so much, why do you read them and pick them apart? Isn't it kind of like looking at the Wall Street Journal and getting mad that there's so much business/finance in there?

    @Sadako: Well, I hink it has something to do with the fact that vogue, cosmo etc are the main "women's magazines" out there and they reach millions of women, giving them ridiculous advice/standards to adhere to. and its definitely worth "picking them apart" and commenting on the messages women are being sent via these magazines. especially, when an absurd amount of people take whats written in these magazines to be true and normal.

    also, fashion doesn't have to be trivial and overly expensive, as these magazines tend to portray it. considering these are "fashion magazines" you think they could do a better job at making fashion accessible to the women who actually read their magazine.

    @Sadako: would be great if there were somuch fashion in vogue, problem is mainly no fashion, total irrelevance, idiotic articles by the same 3 cliquettes every time, and 'actresses,' meaning actors who are women, on the cover. all the time. i would say this issue the worst in the wintour eon, but how could i tell, since theyre all more or less identical.

    @Sadako: Because fashion magazines are a huge influence on the perceptions of womanhood and femininity. They reflect what we are supposed to look like, to want, to aspire to, and to do. If we blithely dismiss them, we are ignoring the problem of prescribed female identity. It is a responsible person's duty to look at these things critically.

    And, you know, rip them apart.

    @Sadako: I'm of the belief that fashion magazines should talk of, you know, fashion rather than promote a jetset lifestyle. Why are there no fashion magazines talking in-depth of fashion (about silhouettes, colours,... and how this all works together), publishing articles of the history of fashion, featuring interesting, stylish people and questioning what fashion and style really is?

    How dare we criticize an issue with the important exposé, "When Size 4 is Too Big: A Curvy Model's Struggle to Fit In"? Translation: we needed something weighty and Esquire-like to balance the ever-pervasive fluff and decided to look at you fatties for a change. We're done. That's all.

    I'm picturing a movie scene of Anna Wintour at her desk, with a voiceover.

    I wonder if we can move on past the "affordable" schtick we have been doing...this recession is sooo 2009. There's an $800/night spa in Utah that I like. ... Now, Rachel McAdams' hair: should we go Sharon Stone circa 1992 or Medusa circa BCE 600?
