Young Culture Leads To Fashion "Urchin"

The New York Times defines Grups like this: "he has more than a dozen pairs of sports shoes at all costs to buy brand-name jeans full of cabinets.

He is neither a child nor a tenth of 20 year old boy. This is a group of adults who are defining their youth in their own way and destroying the age gap in one fell swoop.

From Dandy, Hipp to Yuppie, Grups has plated into the most fashionable urban crowd nowadays.

Compared to the idea of mourning youth with death and stereotype, or by refusing to be young, the open, playful and positive attitude of the naughty children shows the perfect combination of rich experience and young mentality.

In our view, Grups represents and represents a new young culture with non young people as its main body, more modern and mature.

Let's combine the latest trend of 2011 spring and summer fashion, from the history and the present, from the best representative figure of Grups to the excellent creative person who is obsessed with young culture, from all aspects, with the urchin mentality, write a new interpretation for youth.

Youthful positive energy

The fashion coldmakers should pay attention to the following news:

Not long ago, Lacoste joined the French illustrator Severin Millet to launch a limited edition children's T-shirt.

Miss Severin Millet drew vivid designs of crocodiles. The girl was painted with a crocodile Miss dressed in fashionable sportswear and wind guitars. The boy was a crocodile dressed in elegant dress and standing before her holiday luggage, and she was romantic and pleased.

Even if you can't wear children's clothing, it will be fun to collect.

The new Lacoste L! VE first series is boldly endowed with pop illusion by designers, reminiscent of VictorVasarely and Daniel Buren's works of visionary art.

The advertising blockbuster also jumped out of the original Lacoste rule and tried to establish a younger and deeper Lacoste image.

In the picture, a group of young people who are not perfect faces but have different personalities, are filled with the slighting of the party, which is impressive as a youth dance.

"Lacoste is youth and color," said Felipe Oliveira Baptista, the new design director, in an interview with Dazed Digital website.

In fact, our yearning for the spirit of youth is full of contradictory understanding of life, accustomed to rigor and pursuit of working conditions, and always yearning for a young heart.

Therefore, whether you are forty confused or just dealing with society, it is always right to choose a fashion brand full of youthful energy as a wardrobe standing.

Academy sentiment

In Paris, such a city with a strong cultural atmosphere, designers also seem to have a preference for campus.

2011 in spring and summer, Antonio Marras chose the Lyc men's e Carnot high school in Paris 17 district to hold the menswear series conference of Kenzo.

This is an old school that has many cattle, and has been such a great philosopher of Deleuze.

In the stadium of Lyc e e Carnot, the green railings and roof steel brackets are alive and thriving, and the sunlight is sprinkled through the glass ceiling on the playground. It is very easy to recall the artistic feelings of the students in the school age.

The chairs displayed on the show are like the chairs directly moved in the classroom, calling the audience time to turn to teenagers.

Let's take a look at the models, Mediterranean blue and white stripes, splashed ink dyed flowers, grass green, sapphire blue, peach red...

It reminds people of the description of spring - everything is fresh.

Most importantly, actors like Joana Preiss, model Hannelore Knuts, and many other women with strong neutral temperament also appeared in the show. Marras allowed these female models to pick out their own favorite series from the whole series and blend them in the male model.

Marras believes that these clothes designed according to the male body will also look good on women -- "this is the spirit of freedom of Kenzo, breaking the rules."

Rebel imprinting

When it comes to the Grups representative of fashion designers, Marc Jacobs recognised the first place, and I'm afraid no one would dare to recognize second.

The designer who was born in 1963 has suddenly awakened from a sudden day and changed from a sloppy and unkempt otaku image into a five day skin care routine, a curtain call on a skirt, and a "super Sao boy" wearing his own design on the magazine cover.

There is no shortage of designer in the fashion circle, but Jacobs's playful heart is not inferior to anyone else.

Luxury goods and high fashion are never meant for him to be serious.

He crossover silk with Birkenstock, Birkes, Converse, and he said that if he had to wear a tuxedo, he would make it wrinkled and look for a pair of satin shoes.

In Louis Vuitton 2011 spring and summer men's wear show, Marc once again showed his own sense of genius mix and match, and invited her New York art tattoo division Scott Campbell, who is the hero behind SpongeBob SquarePants, stars and cartoon tattoos.

Chinese readers may not know much about Campbell.

Since he opened tattoo shop Saved Tattoo in New York in 2004, he has served countless celebrities and become a world-renowned tattoo artist.

He also held an exhibition of his own art, using laser laser to cut out 3D's stereoscopic skulls, which has great visual impact.

This season, the two creative artists who love the unruly road join hands and use the tattoo of rebellious publicity to rock a conservative middle class.

In the show, Campbell painted tattoos designed for models, making them an important element in modeling.

But all this is just a small test, still afraid of tattoos and want to play a unique person can choose Jacobs and Campbell together to create tattooed handbags.

With the Oriental Kirin as the design element, the totem carved on the black bag is handy, exquisite and vivid. It is absolutely a single eye that breaks the mediocrity in the mixture of the horse and the horse.

Who says tattoos are only products of hormone secretion and impulses?

Let's show your tattoos quickly this summer.

The past and present of young culture

When John Kennedy was elected president of the United States, he was only 43 years old.

It was in 1961 that the young culture derived from the late 50s of the last century opened the pages of this era, so that, in Retrospect and imagination of many generations, 60s was inextricably linked to extravagant and indulgent youth.

From the "Beat Generation" to "hippie", "Mod" and "Teddy Boy", these heroes and heroine are all young people, holding high the banner of rebelling the mainstream class, and taking the youth as if they will never die.

In a book written by Nick Yapp in the 60s of last century, he described it as "young people in 60s broke through the cage."

They squatted in empty rooms to take drugs; they dressed in exaggerated costumes; they listened to that kind of music, even if they weren't the devil's voice, they were deafening and could destroy all hell.

They fight and dance.

What's more, they formed the most important trend in this era.

This is not an accident, nor is it achieved overnight.

In 1955, MaryQuant, who had not yet invented the mini skirt, opened a fashion shop for young people in London's King's road. It has already highlighted the clue of Bazaar.

After the Second World War, the baby boom created the generation who finally got rid of the chaos of war and lived happily.

Chinese people say that they are full of warmth and desire for sex, but at that time, these young people in the West have come to the stage of lust, rebellion and rebellion.

In the context of western capitalism, attacking the middle-class outlook on life and morality that dominion the ruling class has become their primary voice.

A youth subculture that runs counter to mainstream culture has emerged.

Music, fashion, art, movies...

Energetic and fearless young people weave a whole cultural environment guided by this new trend of thought.

Edie Sedgwick, Jan Palach, Che Guevara, MickJagger, with beautiful youthful faces and body idols, have been worshipped by the leader of this trend.

As a kind of micro class culture, the youth subculture was initially "small in scale, limited to a certain geographical area and varied". Each branch was formed by its similarity in music, media, fashion and value orientation, each with its unique interest.

In the United States, which is shackled by the system of class power, the most hippy culture has emerged.

This ideology of peace, freedom and anarchism is a symbol of youth's most genuine and fearless assumptions about society and human nature.

First of all, it does not serve the power and ignore the class. It maintains the equality and freedom of human beings. What it resists is the deprivation of human dignity by the war and the dignity of the elite.

Again, it does not hesitate to use sex and drugs as a means of release.

For hippies, the replacement effect of drugs can help them achieve their inner self-cultivation, see different levels of vision and experience, thus leaving the mainstream society and traditional moral concepts, while unrestrained sexual love is the expression of fraternity.

Like all other Asian cultural trends, hippy's characteristics make it a strong impression of "young people".

Keeping dirty hair and beard, putting on cheap second-hand floral trousers, sitting on the floor, singing and dancing, so Utopian architecture does not try to find a solution from the contradictions of modern society, or even completely divorced from the modern context.

Moreover, this pioneering experiment at the expense of external social value and internal health is like a powerful psychedelic agent, giving the greatest degree of sincerity and preparedness, but also creating an awkward place where there is no place to stay because of the diversion from reason and reality.

More importantly, the Western rebellion and liberalism highly advocated by young culture, as the philosopher Alain Badiou said, "will inevitably lead to nihilism.

You can do it is the keynote and people are encouraged to do everything they want to do.

The avant-garde and avant garde's meaning of breaking away also goes to nothingness, because it is no longer antagonistic to anything. "

Ten years related to youth

The tight pants and slim colored jacket seem to be still in sight.

And its initiator, Hedi Slimane, has begun to remind us of the end and the beginning of a ten year period.

In April of this year, Slimane will soon publish its own ten year review of the Anthology of aDecade.

His black and white images will lead us to a retrospective tour of rock, fashion, music and youth.

Britain, France, Germany and the United States.

Anthology of a Decade is divided into four volumes. More than 600 images are interspersed in more than 800 pages of books, not only the past ten years of Slimane, but also the whole spiritual world of a creator.

From 2000 to 2010, the fashionable dress system that he built for rock musicians has been standardized. Narrow jeans, wet hair, slender and simple neutral clothing -- the image of boy in twenty-first Century has become the fashion complex of many people.

Slimane always accurately reflects the hidden essence of a city and an era hidden in the mainstream vision.

His interdisciplinary obsession and devotion are indispensable in the perfect combination of independent music and high fashion.

The designer once said, "music can tell me everything about my work.

The fashion I design is always expressing the music I love or newly excavated.

The creators and audience of underground music - the teenagers in the city are Slimane's keen observers.

The early Dior Homme put the Slimane favoured boy in a clear and clear way before the masses: weak, thin, addicted, and fled.

This is a typical modern image we know about boys, and it's hard to tell whether Slimane picked them up from sporadic urban life fragments or that the imaginary image he projected to the masses has finally become reality.

Before Slimane, it is hard to find the accurate image of modern youth culture.

The utopian hippies will never be found. Punk and rock and roll, which are easy to enter into the nothingness of the world, are against everything.

In the end, they are all diverted into the "unique style" of the robe that can be used on the fence.

When the mainstream has finally found a way to successfully assimilate and dispel subculture, teenagers can not find the way to release the turbulent flow from their own places.

Of all the creative people who turn teenagers' culture into style, Slimane is a great leader.

He used music as a means, fashion as language, business system as a medium, bringing youth culture into a powerful productive force, so that the modern relationship between Asian culture and consumer society is fully displayed.

In this practice, which seems to be a consumerist case to eliminate the cultural classics of young people, Slimane has brought an enlightening brainstorming to his consumers, the elite of the mainstream society, through the carrier of advanced garments.

Who is going to invade mainstream society by means of mainstream society? Who says this is not a victory?

Fashions portraying heroes can also easily turn heroes into clich and lose strength.

From this perspective, Slimane chose to take up the camera, making him a more persuasive possibility for contemporary youth culture.

In addition to the record of fashion history, "Anthology of aDecade" shows young people who have been photographed in Berlin, New York, London and Losangeles after being photographed by Slimane.

They jump, laugh, sink and obsess in the lens of Slimane. The faces and bodies of youth are frozen and become the most realistic youth culture epitome.
