In high fashion a cycle of "New Looks" dictated what we should wear from season to season; similarly in the style wars of the streets you were a zootie, a beatnik, a punk. Post-punk, fashion itself went out of fashion. This study reveals the liberation of being able to dress how we please.

Not fashion forward,
By Canaan Black "Daughter of Sodom" (Sodom by the Sea) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Style Surfing: What to Wear in the 3rd Millennium (Paperback)
This book was a disappointment. If you live in New York, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago or any other major city, you've already worn most of these styles. The book is a compilation of looks ranging from really bad early 80's wannabe goth, unattractive fetishists, a raver or 2, a couple of neo-hippies, a club kid, a design team who deconstructs then reconstructs garments and two japanese girls who change styles like most people change underwear. It doesn't try to even guess what might new and exciting.
The photographs are clear, the print quality is good. The content is a disappointment. Look over this book in a library or something, don't bother buying it.

style surfing gives me chills,
By "blurintorachael" (Dallas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Style Surfing: What to Wear in the 3rd Millennium (Paperback)
this book rocks my socks. it's got great graphics, awesome photography, and a crapload of articles inside. if you like fashion and you're kind of freaky, this is the book for you. i saw this book on a bookstore shelf and snatched it right up. i could read this book a thousand times and flip through the pictures every single day.
