DARK AGE AHEAD
July 20, 2008
With major political shifts of power just months away, times certainly call for optimism. Yet, we’ve actually grown accustomed to this bleak age…at least in an aesthetic sense. The darkness outside can lead to inner retreat and mystical catechism, and in turn, great beauty! The oracle within will radiate outward, illuminating the midnight path through these medieval nights, and we will, with patience, virtue and honor, find our way. Step into the light. Step into the night. Black, cutout top by Gaspard Yurkievich (www.gaspardyurkievich.com), Henrik Vibskov blousy shorts (www.kronkron.com), Quoddy ring boots (www.southwillard.com), and a medieval headband as seen in the Spring 2009 Gaspard Yurkievich collection (courtesy of Jargol.com–fashion your own). Criterion Collection’s Joan of Arc (the best one on film) will set the tone for your dark age ahead.
