Fashion Should be Joyful

I’ve been sitting watching some late night TV, the New York Fashion Week shows were distilled on FTV. Whereas I love all of the over the top fashions that will morph into the fashions we will see and buy in the stores I really have one pet peeve – why can’t the models look happy?

Great fashion clothing like great fashion costume jewellery is designed to make you feel good. The cut of the cloth, the feel of the fabric and the overall look make clothes intimately involved with the way we feel. When I make my jewellery I like to think that the recipient will love wearing it.

So why is it that all of the fashion shows have models with non changing faces, no expression, no joy? Come on people let us be honest do we enjoy our fashion or not?

    You’re right! Happiness is important, who would want to buy a dress where the model looks down right miserable?
