Cameron and Eric are my picks.
Erika is giving me Helena Bonham Carter vibes.
Nice-looking folks in nice-looking get-ups. Nice.
Not one of these people is remotely fashionable...cheap hooker is not a look!
"Industrial designer and MODEL"?!?!
WTF?! Some people take themselves WAY to seriously.
Saying you're an "industrial designer and model" is like saying you're a "documentary filmmaker and caterer".
Please Jen, stop devaluing the word "architect" by describing what you do as architecture. It is not. You work at a PR company or some kind of douchie ad firm.
I think "Brand Pimp" is probably a better description.
Brand architecture is the structure of brands within an organizational entity. It is the way in which the brands within a company’s portfolio are related to, and differentiated from, one another. The architecture should define the different leagues of branding within the organization; how the corporate brand and sub-brands relate to and support each other; and how the sub-brands reflect or reinforce the core purpose of the corporate brand to which they belong. According to Rajagopal Brand architecture may be defined as an integrated process of brand building through establishing brand relationships among branding options in the competitive environment. The brand architecture of an organization at any time is, in large measure, a legacy of past management decisions as well as the competitive realities it faces in the marketplace.
And "brand architect" is fucking funny
Funny how prior to WWII it was known as "propaganda", but now it's referred to as "brand architecture". It's vomit-inducing, but hey, I guess it makes people feel that what they're doing is important, even though what they really do is enable sick behaviour.
Maybe this is a closer description: "Gross Consumption Enabler".
What he's wearing: Unknown
what is this..clothes hunters or something?
As man searches for the known unknowns....
I think Erika and Jano look especially great. And who cares if somebody's industrial designer AND model? What's the big deal, perhaps they are proud of what they do... Lighten up people!
manufacturing titles of importance = WEAK
mona...awesome pics as usual.
and iye is gorgeous.
Beautiful simplicity.
At least Iye knows how to dress herself.
I know how I'd feel if suddenly a kippah became a fashion item.
best-dressed men that I've ever seen on BlogTO's Street Style. Both of their outfits are bang on. Nice job guys.
P.S.:Cameron's outfit is the only one that stands out. It's fresh and actually modern.
