fall10RTW: Rebel Yellow

galliano.......................................miumiu

I have been reviewing all the fashion from the Fall10 Ready To Wear collections. I spend hours on style.com clicking on all the slideshows. I only made a small dent, covered my favorites, discovered some new-to-me. I found some nice pieces. I was inspired to empty out my locker full of fabric all over my apartment. I bought grannypanties from the Sears so i could dress like dolce & gabbana.

One thing i found particularly and viscerally striking was a color used in a couple collections. Galliano was the first i saw. In amongst the piles of frosty grey, there was a shock of bright-rich-yellow-orange. I see this as today's reincarnation of Elsa Schiaparelli's shocking pink. But, it transcends gender. To me it felt like a call to rebellion. It is Vivienne Westwood's gorgeous hair.

But it's not angry.

It's finding motivation in intense positivity.

revolution through in-your-face love and smiles and humor.

This is the color of my freak flag.

And this is my call to arms, abrazos.

I call it: Rebel Yellow

Video Archive: Romance

Dug up this vintage footage circa 2003, playing the Straight Man to Brian Viglione's overwrought romantic. A belated Valentine to the world.
