Halloween

Since I couldn’t fulfill my Penanggalan Halloween costume plans due to lack of Malasian witch’s flying head with dangling stomach and intestines, I’ll be vicariously living this day through the haunting vibes of another darkness worshipper who’s become the scope of my obsession

By looking at these pictures, I think she just ate my soul. Although I may not like some other ~strange~ beauties, working a specific aesthetic is a model’s best chance to stand out and not ending up as a token or runway filler. And Chloë is doing exactly that. She looks like the most beautiful witch and she knows it. You can tell by the shows she walked this last summer/spring season

Since I'm a stalker guru level ∞ (infinite) I’ve got the chance to chat with her about  the shows this season, what’s she doing at the moment, upcoming projects, and popcorn’s influence in one’s darkness. 


Me: Don't worry if I sound like a stalker, I'm from Honduras - far away in Central America
Chloë: I am honored! Thank you Raul!


I fell in love with your modeling after I saw the video at the MTC casting office in NY City.
Oh! I hate that one. So unflattering.


So how are you? How's work?
I am very good thanks. I am at home, been here a few days, now leaving for I don't know how long. London tomorrow and Paris then.


What's happening there? Jobs in London and then Paris for work! Editorial and look book.

The video where you said a day without popcorn is a bad day was so funny hahahhaha So random. I was joking around in the whole video. I don't know if people got it. I found it funny though I was supertired had like 20 castings every day and I just did all these random things in the video.


Did u finally go to the Proenza Schouler after party? I did! I went with my friend. It was fun, in a nice venue.


So what is the lookbook you're doing? It's hilarious. Thomas Tait! Looove his clothes. It's really my style. So I'm glad to be doing it. ofc it's info for you only. *This was two weeks ago. That info is public now.


So I guess u like pop corn I love popcorn. I eat it all the time haha obsessively.


I wish I was dark like you, maybe I should start eating pop corn Popcorn does it. I'm telling ya.


Your appearance at Meadham and Kirchoff was like.. planets aligning, A+, etc Meadham was fuun. A few that work there are good friends of my boyfriend
so we had fun and I was running late from another show...really late...so me and Hildie were in the car together on our way there and got our hair and make up done in 5 minutes. The runway was aaamazing. Another friend of mine was doing backstage coverege for dazed, it was a lot of fun.


You're very tall right? Like, really tall even for a model. Yeah haha 1.84cms.


Bless your dark genes. I'm gonna get some sleep now I think.

Have a good night, tons of love. xxxxxxxx

Q&A with Tavi Gevinson

So, Tavi Gevinson, the fashion blogger. It's practically impossible not to know who she is, unless a.You haven't spent enough time on the internet or b.You're extremely not interested in fashion. In any case, here's this helpful wikipedia link. So, I had the opportunity to ask the 14 year old fashion celebrity some of the few questions that thousands of followers have failed to ask, which she answered very cleverly and, um, excitedly, unlike her usual Lisa-Simpson-meets-Daria voice. Here's what she said.

Did you know you were featured in Garance Dore's Givenchy Couture video?
Yes! I really DO always forget to do that European fashn~kissy thing... and I feel really stupid when I do it with another American, like, WHO ARE WE KIDDING?

Where can I download "How To Succeed in Business w/out Really Trying?

I don't know how! I know a lot of the musical numbers are on Youtube?!

You always say you LOVE Miu Miu and Rodarte and Commes but.. are there any things you HATE?

I hate a lot of things, unfortunately! In terms of designers, I hate Balmain. I really do. And Jil Stuart, it's all knockoffs. Not a fan of Hannah MacGibbons but she's improving. Cavalli is kind of gross.

By the way, what do you think about Christopher Kane's Fall 2010 flower-on-leather thing?

I am still working out how I feel about Kane but based on gut feeling I liked the flower-on-leather.

What do you think about Lady Gaga being treated as a fashion icon?  Do you like her/take her seriously?

I have been on the fence about her for SO LONG... but I'm just going to say I like her and then I don't feel weirdly stressed about it. I don't take her seriously and refuse to call her an "artist"... I think it's cool she wears crazy shit, and I LOVE her stylist, and her performances are really extreme and theatrical in a way that I suppose is rather unique... but when she says she "aspires" to "free people of their monsters and bring the freak in everyone" I think it's total BS.

But about her being a FASHION ICON, I really don't think so. I don't think you can be an icon if you have a stylist. And I really don't buy the whole "I imagine what I'm going to be wearing for a song as I'm writing it" stuff. But whatever, most of the time I get a kick out of her and Bad Romance is TOTALLY A+.

One more question. What are the things you love the most?

I love people the most, especially people that are willing to put out something that's been bothering them and then other people see it and go "Thank God I'm not the only one!" This means writers and artists of all kinds.
