Everybody walks past a thousand story ideas every day. The good writers are the ones who see five or six of them. Most people don't see any.
Comment preview: (Greetings, Summoners. Pentakill Sona here at the Quarterly Valoran Fashion Show, hosted in the gloomy and brooding Shadow Isles.) * (I just love the resonant atmosphere here, and it really suits the dark and delightful outfit I wear when I play with my b ....
Comment preview: My gf is a fashion designer, so I've got an interesting look at the industry. What most people don't understand when they watch fashion shows is that these shows are 100% brand exposure. You're very rarely going to see a show full of clothes that someone w ....
Comment preview: Think of runway fashion shows as a painter's palette. Not something that *is* next year's fashion but something that *inspires* next year's fashion. Let's say I've been travelling and my imagination has been caught by the quiet, isolated tropical islands o ....
Comment preview: >You are telling her that making sure the boys have a **distraction-free learning environment** is more important than her education. You are telling her that boys are more entitled to an education than she is. Holy shit how twisted she has this. Boys a ....
Comment preview: [Outfit](http://i.imgur.com/9PkGSzE.jpg) for a mildly cool trip to the playground. [bonus pic with accessory](http://i.imgur.com/vhLk64w.jpg) **Edit** Oy. Too long; couldn't read because all the comments were deleted: One user felt that my outfit was borin ....
Comment preview: I've seen this be asked on Reddit so many times I want to throw my laptop out the window every time. But, I get the confusion if you're not a part of the industry and you're just the consumer. I'm a fashion designer - I do both pret-a-porter as well as exp ....
Comment preview: Think of it like concept cars. A concept car by Toyota that has 7 wheels and is covered with mirrors isn't meant to be expected to driven by the public. It's about showing off Toyota's prowess in design and establishing their place in the market. Also, if ....
Comment preview: I could barely get through this, especially after the part about the Confederate flag and gay marriage. What kind of non-equivalence... Lady, your kid is fucking annoying. Get over it. And her excuses for not taking the kid outside, having snacks, etc. are ....
Comment preview: You want help reframing this so that your girlfriend didn't ruin it? Here's reframing it: Imagine if she was really into fashion shows. She plans an expensive trip to las vegas, for some big fashion show. You get backstage passes to talk to all the designe ....
Comment preview: Some thoughts and observations on this episode: 1. HOLY CRAP, Dave Polski wrote a half-way decent episode by himself. It only took him how many tries over four seasons? 2. I'm glad he's finally learning that smart characters acting stupidly is not what ma ....
Comment preview: Former girl scout with fun anecdote: My first troop was very much interested in camping and science badges, etc. As girls gradually left as we got older, we had to combine troops. The leader of the new troop was a Stepford wife. She wanted fashion badges a ....
Comment preview: Not *all* haute couture lines go on to inspire highstreet clothing. Very few do. It's like haute couture fashion shows are the 'brainstorm' - a million weird ideas with no limits - and then maybe 1% of those ideas will be influential or practical or punchy ....
Comment preview: I know it sucks that we probably won't get new music, but Kanye is talking about a lot of interesting stuff in this interview that I think are worth appreciating. Yeezy Season 2 has been getting clowned a lot because of twitter's 24/7 classic/trash ADD rea ....
Comment preview: It's "Haute Couture" or "High Dressmaking". They are fabrics, themes, concepts and techniques being explored. It's what drives the entire industry and scene forward. Ultimately, some of those elements will be picked up for the "pr t porter" or "ready to ....
Comment preview: In some Southeast Asian countries, there is a tradition of men allowing their fingernails to grow very long. I was told that it is to demonstrate that they do not have to do manual labor, that they are part of a leisure or leading class. It is similar to h ....
Comment preview: I think in any realm of art, people who are incredibly involved and pursue that art with a lot of passion eventually get "desensitized". Musicians can easily figure out the chord progression and song structure just by hearing a few seconds of a song, phot ....
Comment preview: Yeah sure. The first thing to keep in mind is that when you start following designers, you need to keep an open mind or you will get weirded out. So as you may or may not know, designers not only create highly covetable goods that many fashionable people w ....
Comment preview: went to that fashion show. it was worse than expected. a lot of self-congratulation and some really terrible styling with maybe 10 good pieces over the course of two hours and a lot of it felt like it was a good five years late, so...very representative of ....
Comment preview: Listen up you ignorant fucks (well not all of you, but a lot of you), gonna drop some knowledge on you. Fashion shows and the collections shown in them fall into 2 categories; Haute couture, and ready to wear. Couture refers to things that are created esse ....

Comment preview: are you making a good faith attempt to like runway fashion? the short version: there is shit you will not like. you may or may not have the tastes that most of the people who look at runway do. you'll notice critical swells that all move the same way for c ....
Comment preview: This is probably the wrong sub for it, but most people aren't supposed to "get" Haute Couture. Haute Couture is better classified as Avant-Garde Art, rather than clothing. It serves two functions. 1. When creating clothing for fashion shows or auctions, de ....

Comment preview: Have you never seen Devil Wears Prada? And I'm guessing you've also never actually seen a fashion show. It's not a bunch of guys standing around saying, "this is what you should be wearing". The fashion houses (Chanel, Prada, etc.) put out a bunch of style ....
Comment preview: For anyone that thinks this was a fair reply to the gf's post let's try reversing it. OP (writing on a women's fashion column) Hey Everyone, I'm concerned my girlfriend is spending to much money on fabrics, buttons etc. trying to design the perfect dress. ....
