If anyone sees anything by Prada that's nice (we can't seem to find anything
other than over-designed weird stuff in the shops here) please can they let
me know the SP. And be quick about it.
I have about 4 weeks left to run on my Prada/French Connection blag before
my contact changes jobs and I haven't took the piss out of them enough yet.
Read it and weep Mods, next seasons French Connection jumpers for �3.25!
Coming soon - Hugo Boss on the cheap. Waheey!

See me on a stall at the IOW flogging cloth.

Attention Modslisters. In a flagrant display of self promotion, I
exhort you to turn on your television sets. My top television show,
Hollywood Fashion Machine, airs on the AMC network Monday nights at 2pm/8pm
Eastern, 5pm/11pm Pacific. Turn on tonight for a fascinating documentary on
costume design in science fiction, from Metropolis to The Matrix.
Interesting interludes for
modslisters include a look at Hardy Amies' pre-Prada designs for
2001 and Paco Rabanne's Barbarella.
Of more direct interest is next Monday (the 31st) which is the show
on film costumes of the 1960's. Interviews included: Mary Quant, Twiggy
(cow), Michael York, Raquel Welch, Theadora Van Runkle (designed Bullitt,
Bonnie
and Clyde, Thomas Crown) and so on.
It is, needless to add, a rip-roaring white knuckled thrill ride of
an exploration into the vagaries of 1960's film fashions which will
tittilate, inform, fluster and bewilder you as it streaks past the retina.
Also it features some VERY COOL FOOTAGE that you might not want to miss. I
can't be arsed to tape it for you either so you had better watch it.
I apologise profusely in advance for any Austin Powers references
and the ill-informed use of the word "mod". Needless to say my protestations
went unheard on both points.
Let us say in conclusion that I tried my damnedest to squeeze as
much cool stuff into there as possible and I hope you can enjoy it. I also
hope that it is marginally less retarded than most "tv does the 60's" shows.
Any of
the parts you like were my responsibility, whereas those parts you
hate had nothing to do with me. Any questions on stuff in the show, forward
to [EMAIL PROTECTED], because as you well know, I'm not on this list
anymore.
Thank you and goodnight.
Richard Hutt
