Suzanne DeChillo/The New York TimesMother is so proud! One of my favorite friends, sublime socialite and extraordinary gentleman, Matthew Anderson, has officially exploded onto the fashion map! Matthew has been fabulously featured in the New York Times, honey, as a stylista on the move. So is it any wonder that he's made regular appearances on this here blog? He networks every party, storms the Fashion Week tents, and even taught me how to crash the front row! Yes, he is in a word...fabulous, darling!
Here are some highlights from Matthew's New York Times profile:
Here are some highlights from Matthew's New York Times profile:
Current look: Right now I have on vintage military boots with yellow shoestrings in one and Spiderman shoestrings in the other, a leather vest with a fur collar, and Abercrombie cargo pants that used to have two parachute straps, but one got caught in a subway door and ripped off. My bracelet was a gift; it’s made of leather and bullets.
Breaking into the fashion world: It’s tough; it’s a networking game. It’s a lot about what people you meet, and people trusting you and then wanting to bring you in. There’s so many people hungry for it, and there has to be something that makes you special.
Frequency of spotting fashion disasters: Oh, God. Every single day. You see people wearing the most horrendous, horrendous things that make absolutely no sense. An example: I saw a woman dressed head to toe in Pepto-Bismol pink. Or you see people wearing horrible prints, or things that are too tight and show indents and cellulite.
Doesn’t the economic crisis make fashion superfluous? No, fashion is a lifestyle. It’s stimulating; it’s an expression. You’ve got to live your life and have fun.
