Fashion (+) Design

I have to admit, I love fashion. It's fun and beautiful. A well tailored outfit can change everything. So is it important to Graphic Designers?

Look at Angie Wang, designer, typographer. Clothes? Definitely has a sense of style, color coordination. Dexsy was showing me an outfit. ahh very nice. I am in love with a pair of shoes (for the shape and color..).

Today I got a nice jcrew coat, white, wool and cashmere. Only 19 dollars (sale at Jeremy's) and I know I got it for the cut and color. In many ways, that's how I buy a book too. Visual sensibility. And that is how I should design a book.

In a world that is based alot of speech, ideas, and appearance, fashion does play a key role. Though I would love to say that I do not judge you by the shirt you are wearing, I sure will notice if it's a nice dress shirt with a pattern that pops. And though I'd hate to admit it as well, I appreciate that people care about their clothes.

Of course, I dress in an awful rush for school. 8 am. I'm not put together at all (mind and everything too.) But it's Friday night and I'm going out with my boy, so l'm going to go stand in front of the mirror.
