Danjyo Hiyoji on SFP 2015
Dalam SFP 2015, Danjyo Hiyoji mengambil inspirasi salah satunya yaitu unsur elemen air yang terinspirasi dari Indonesia kepulauan maritim karena Indonesia merupakan negara maritim terbesar. Ada 3 bagian yang menjadi inspirasi dalam koleksi yaitu Laut, Bugis, Kapal Pinisi. Warna navy menggambarkan warna maritim, hijau menggambarkan indonesia sendiri secara keseluruhan dan warna biru muda itu menggambarkan laut itu sendiri. Kapal Pinisi mengambil layarnya beberapa layer –layer di dalam piecenya. Dari 3 yang paling menonjol adalah bugis walaupun bukan secara kain, mengambil tradisinya dan koin bugis. Tidak ada batasan baik gender maupun usia.
Dari unsur bugis mengambil poin transgender.... point tersebut kita implementasikan dalam bentuk treatment print di baju, gender memang inspirasi gender yang ada di Bugis yaitu ada 5 gender yang mreka akui, laki-laki sebagai laki-laki, perempuan sebagai perempuan, laki-laki sebagai perempuan, perempuan sebagai laki-laki, aseksual/tidak ada jenis kelamin yang mengekspresikan koleksi dari Danjyo Hiyoji dari musim ke musim, dari situ Danjyo Hiyoji berharap seluruh koleksinya diterima oleh semua lapisan, baik itu secara umur ataupun dari gender yang nantinya akan keluar dari perspektif masing-masing, dan Look yang ditampilkan sebanyak 24 dengan 19 model yang terdiri dari 13 look perempuan dan 11 look laki-laki
Perkembangan Surabaya Fashion Parade 2015
Ivan Teguh, Fashion stylish yang memiliki ciri khas tersendiri dalam
memperhatikan setiap style setiap orang dengan lebih memperhatikan cut out
clean dan sophiscated. Dan arti fashion menurut Ivan adalah "This is me”, setiap
orang punya style masing-masing, berdasarkan appereance dan kelihatan dari
personality-nya seseorang serta styling yang mreka hasilkan. misalkan romantic
bisa terlihat clean atau soft, fun, feminim. Style saya lebih mengarah ke
layer dan over size,
Untuk perkembangan Surabaya Fashion Parade ditahun 2015 ini menarik karena berkonsep tahun 50s,
60s, dan 70s. Namun sayangnya tidak semua designer mengikuti sesuai tema
tersebut dan perlu banyak ide kreatifnya yang dikeluarkan dan tidak terlalu
monoton seperti tidak bisa lepas dari batik dan bahkan hanya sedikit yang
mengikuti tema dan yang lain kurang peduli sama tema.
Kesimpulannya dalam acara SFP 2015 ini dalam secara designer lebih bagus daripada kemarin dan
guest designer juga lebih kreatif, booth ini mungkin lebih bagus namun kurang
variatif.

Starting Interview with People who Always Influence Your Life
Apa
yang ingin mama mau dari aku jika saat dewasa nanti?
Tentunya mama ingin kamu dalam hal yang utama adalah
berbakti pada orang tua dan menjadi orang yang baik, sebisa mungkin berguna
bagi masyarakat, lalu untuk kedepannya nanti lulus kuliah dan berprofesi
sebagai fashion designer.
Apa
rencana mama untuk masa depanku?
Rencana mama untuk tetap membiayai kamu kuliah
sampai lulus dan berencana untuk membuka usaha bersama dalam bidang fashion
agar disaat mama pensiun nanti, mama bisa berwirausaha.
Bagaimana
aku bisa menjadi seperti mama?
Caranya BE YOURSELF dan semua itu perlu pembelajaran
sebelum resmi menjadi anggota keluarga dan hal yang terpenting adalah tanggung
jawab, misalnya: pembagian tugas bersih-bersih rumah dan sudah 15 tahun mama
membiayai saudara-saudaramu dan banyak orang yang mengatakan mama “superwoman” sebagai single parent dan
semua itu harus survive dan sebelum
memulai setiap kegiatan, kita harus selalu berdoa agar semuanya lancar.
Apa
Kelebihan dan kekurangan mama? Lalu bagaimana caranya mama menangani kekurangan
tersebut?
Untuk kelebihan, orang yang menilai karena menilai
diri sendiri itu sulit kalau yang menilai bukan orang lain. Tetapi kebanyakan
orang memandang mama sebagai perempuan
yang luar biasa, bisa apa aja, mulai dari nyetir sendiri, masak, membiayai kamu
bertiga, dan semuanya serba bisa. Kekurangan mama adalah khawatir, karena
kelebihan tersebut yang menonjol yang dapat berakibat pada anak-anak mama,
karena sibuknya pekerjaan, anak-anak harus mandiri dan tidak tahu apa yang
terjadi dalam lingkungan tanpa pengawasan.
Untuk menangani kekurangan tersebut mama lakukan
dengan cara sering menelpon anak-anak mama, karena dengan teknologi sekarang,
bisa memudahkan komunikasi dengan anak jarak jauh dan dulu belum ada gadget, mama lebih khawatir karena pada
saat itu karena harga gadget mahal.

HEAVENLY ROAD for EVERYONE, TIAN LU - Chinese Pop
There wasn't much unusual about this protest really but one thing I noticed was that the Chinese party seemed to take great pleasure out of blasting Chinese pop songs about Tibet at us! Maybe I just hadn't really noticed if they had done it before in the past but when the tune started to ring a bell I realised they were playing the official song that commemorated the opening of the railway to Tibet in 2006. The song was called "Tian Lu" and it was sung by Han Hong.
I've seen Tian Lu translated in different ways and now many singer used this song as cover to get the popularity, I guess it could be Sky Road or Heavenly Road.
Lyrics:
天路
Tian lu
清晨我站在青青的牧场 qing chen wo zhan zai qing qing de mu chang 看到神鹰披着那霞光 kan dao shen ying pi zhuo na xia guang 像一片祥云飞过蓝天 xiang yi pian xiang yun fei guo lan tian 为藏家儿女带来吉祥 wei cang jia er nv dai lai ji xiang 黄昏我站在高高的山岗 huang hun wo zhan zai gao gao de shan gang 看那铁路修到我家乡 kan na tie lu xiu dao wo jia xiang 一条条巨龙翻山越岭 yi tiao tiao ju long fan shan yue ling 为雪域高原送来安康 wei xue yu gao yuan song lai an kang 那是一条神奇的天路哎 na shi yi tiao shen qi de tian lu ai 把人间的温暖送到边疆 ba ren jian de wen nuan song dao bian jiang 从此山不再高路不再漫长 cong ci shan bu zai gao lu bu zai man chang 各族儿女欢聚一堂 ge zu er nv huan ju yi tang 黄昏我站在高高的山岗 huang hun wo zhan zai gao gao de shan gang 看那铁路修到我家乡 kan na tie lu xiu dao wo jia xiang 一条条巨龙翻山越岭 yi tiao tiao
IN ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
At dawn, I stand upon the green
grassland
I see a magical eagle bathed in ruddy light
Like an auspicious cloud soaring through the blue sky
Bringing good luck to the Tibetan people
At dusk, I
stand atop the tall mountain peak
I see the
railway built to my hometown
A colossal
dragon soaring through the mountains
Bringing
prosperity to the snowy plateau
That is a
magical Heaven's Road
Bringing the
motherland's warmth to borderlands
Mountains are
no longer high, journeys are no longer long
All ethnic
groups unite as one
At dusk, I
stand atop the tall mountain peak
I see the
railway built to my hometown
A colossal
dragon soaring through the mountains
Bringing
prosperity to the snowy plateau
That is a
magical Heaven Road
Bringing us to
paradise on earth
Barley beer
and butter tea will taste more sweet
Joyful songs
echo in all directions
That is a
magical Heaven Road
Bringing us to
paradise on earth
Barley beer
and butter tea will taste more sweet
Joyful songs

Joyful songs echo in all
directions
Eve Arnold - Photographer
Eve Arnold's camera captured the gold beaded skullcap, glossed lips and lacquerred nails of a model backstage at a Lanvin show in 1977. Arnold rarely used studios; relying instead on natural light and her hand-held Nikon. Her work was always respectful and sympathetic to its subject, background details were never an afterbought - Arnold insisted. "you have to take advantage of the variables, it might be the smile, the gesture, the light. None of which you can predict. 'she took pictures of black women modelling in Harlem fashion shows in 1948 and continued the project for two years, until picture post published her story. As a result, she was offered a job as the first female stringer for the Magnum photos agency. A long friendship with Marilyn Monroe produced some of her best-known images. But Arnold's work covered a broad spectrum - ' everything from serious disaster to Hollywood hoop-la'.

There are so many images of Marilyn, but there is something so vulnerable about this one. Love it!

Zika Ascher - Textile Designer
In the long tradition of artists turning fabric designers, such as Dufy and Cocteau, the unmistakeable sketches of Henry Monroe are applied to silk by Zika Ascher. This design, which combines screen printing with batik painting, was selected for use by Nina Ricci. When Vogue ask in 1962, 'which comes first, the chicken or the egg? The fabric or the fashion?', it could have had Ascher in mind. His innovative approach to fabrics revolutionized fashion from the 1940s. He started his own production company and silk-screen print works in London in 1942. In 1948 he approached artists such as Moore and Henri Matisse to design prints. His own inventive approach to textiles acted as a catalyst for fashion designers of that time: in 1952 his highly original large-scale floral prints were used by Dior and Schia[arelli, and in 1957 his shaggy mohair inspired Castillo to create huge enveloping coats.

Elizabeth Arden - Cosmetic Creator
In one of Baron de Meyer's famous advertisements for Elizabeth Arden, a model resembling a figure from a Modigliani painting wears the Arden face. The name behind one of the century's greatest cosmetic houses was inspired by Tennyson's poem 'Enoch Arden' and a love of the name Elizabeth. Her real name was Florence Nightingale Graham and she worked as a beauty treatment girl for Eleanor Adair in New York where,
in 1950, she opened her own salon on Fifth avenue with her sigmature red door. One of the first beauty gurus to encourage exercise, she opened a spa and health retreat in Maine in 1934, and was passionate about horses. Arden developed a range of make up for Hollywood that would not melt under the lights and was later used by women when they were out dancing. In 1935 she launched the legendary Eight Hour Cream, which remains to this day a cult beauty product.

Arai Junichi - Textile Designer
Junichi arai has been described as the 'truly enfant terrible of japanese textiles.... a naughty boy playing with high-tech toys'. His favourited toys are the jacquard loom and digital computer. The fabric illustrated here is typical of his work, which commonly uses metallic fibres and turns them into exquisite works of art destined only to be admired. The son and nephew of weavers, Arai was born in Kirya, A historic centre for textiles. He initially worked with his father on kimono and obi cloths, which he developed, eventually acquiring three-dozen patents for new fabrics. Form 1970 Arai worked experimentally and began long-standing collaborations with Rei Kawakubo and Issey Miyake, who would suggest phrases such as 'like clouds', 'like stone' or 'driving rain' for Arai to magic into a representative fabric by using his idiosynecratic weaving techniques.

James Abbe - Photographer
James Abbe's choice of a simple, uncluttered backdrop and soft use of lighting accentuates the seductiveness of Gilda Gray, a dancer in Ziegfeld Follies and other Broadway revues. Like many fashion photographs of its time, it promotes a feeling that we are privy to something intimate - as if Gray has been captured unawares, dreamily caught up in her own thoughts with her eyes turned away from the lens. Taken in Paris in 1924, the photograph seizes the essence og mid-1920s eveningwear - a plumb line dress, pssibly by Lanvin or Paton, in filmy, sensuous fabric trimmed with fringed tiers. In the early twentieth century, American stage and screen actresses. His well-mannered work for American Vogue represented what Alexander Liberman called '... an underlying dream of a world where people act and behave in civilized manner'.
