Summer Sizzle!

Jun 7, 2007 Author: FMS | Filed under: Artistic, Glamorous, Hongdae, Racy, Street Runway

우와. 홍대에서 자신있게 빨리 진행하는 이 언니를 봤을때 너무 당황스러웠지. 미니원피스. 핫핑크 가방. 문신! 또 핑크 샌달. 그런 사람들하고 비교하는 거아니라. 그냥 감상하는 거지. 이런 멋쟁이 보면 “와우. 진짜 홍대이구나.”라고 생각할 수 있게. 기분이 너무 좋았지, 이 언니 보고.

I spotted Little Miss Fabulous speed-strutting past the park in Hongdae, with minidress, hot pink bag, and tattoo?! Even if it’s fake (as it likely is), it’s still a little piece of fabulous that you don’t see around too often. This isn’t the kind of person one lusts after, or even compares oneself to; she’s just a little piece of the atmosphere that really makes one think, “This is definitely Hongdae!” A flash of beauty to be appreciated, I think.

What a sad scene. ! This one shoe was found alone on a street corner in New York City. Every shoe has a story…

“Subtle but Sharp”

Apr 14, 2007 Author: FMS | Filed under: Artistic, Glamorous

특이했네요. 캐쥬얼이고 평범한 스타일이며 아주 sharp한 accent도 있는 것같아요. 요즘에 여지들이 자기 다리를 강조하려고 하는 걸 이해하는데 사실 무리하게 짧은 치마나 화려한 스타킹을 신지만 도리어 우리 눈살을 찌푸리게 하는 겨우가 많지 않나요? 사실 좀 심플하고 기본적인 장신구로 다리를 강조하는게 더 미묘하게 끌리는 것아닌가요?

그리고 Ballerina처럼 “en pointe” (까치발) 포즈를 잡고 우산도 en pointe인 것같았고. 그래서 처음에 눈에 뛴 거죠.우산 화려하고. 일부러 선택한 것같지 않으며 그냥 가지고 나온 건데 그래도 개성이 있는 것. 그리고 캐쥬얼한 스타일이며 이쁜 다리를 멋진 open-toe 구두로 강조하고 accent를 한 것.

그래서 웬지 눈에 거예요. 병범한 스타일이지만. 사진으로만 느낄 수 있는지 모르겠지만 좀 개성이 있는 여자같았다. 웬지.

This young woman caught my eye not so much because of her wild style or wily ways, but the way she accented her casual style with a touch of sharpness. A lot of young women these days seem to be wearing shorter skirts and louder stockings in order to attract attention to the glamor of their gams, but it often comes off as looking like it’s trying too hard, or going just a bridge too far into the realm of bad taste.

I like subtle, with a little bit of flair. The colors of her loud umbrella caught my eye first, as did her fabulous en pointe pose mirrored by her leaning on her pointy umbrella. I don’t know if the pictures capture it, but she seemed like a fun girl.

멀티매거진이란?

이 거 뭐냐고요? 바로 한국 패션을 사랑하는 미국인사진작가의 만든 한국의 최초의 street fashion and style "멀티매거진"이예요. 반갑죠? ㅋㅋㅋ

우리 멀테매거진은 대부분의 한국 패션잡지하고 달라요. 여러 사람들을 모여서 '리얼 패션'을 직접 찍고 촬영하고 녹음도 하고. 그리고 UCC과 podcast하고 멋진 멀티미디어 컨텐츠와 솔직한 글로 색다른 online magazine을 제공해요. 멀티미디어 + 매거진 = "멀티매거진"이죠. 지금 발전중이라 이쁘게 봐주시고 우리 컴뮤니티에 가입을 좀 하시죠? 우리 FMS의 사이트와 함께 서울의 멋진 길거리와 맛집에서 만나보자!


What is FASHION?

"패션은 옷과 함께 하는 것만은 아니에요...하늘에도, 길에도 패션은 있고, 패션은 우리의 생각과 삶의 방식, 주변에서 일어나는 일들과도 함께해야만 해요."

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening."

--- Coco Chanel (1883–1971)

What is STYLE?

"패션은 희미해지지만 스타일은 영원하다."

"Fashions fade, style is eternal.”

--- Yves Saint Laurent (b. 1936)






What is SEXY?

"있잖아..다리가 아름다운건 아니야...단지 그걸 어떻게 해야 하는지를 아는거야."

"Darling, the legs aren't so beautiful, I just know what to do with them."

--- Marlene Dietrich (1901–1992)











What is TALENT?

"내가 연기할 수 없을 때, 난 연기를 해야 했고, 노래할 수 없을 때, 난 '익살스런 얼굴'을 노래해야 했다. 또, 난 Fred Astaire와 함께 춤을 춰야 했었는데, 그때는 춤을 출 수 있는 상황이 아니었다. 그러니까 내가 준비되지 않았을 때 난 이 모든것을 해야 했던 것이다. 그때 난 정말 미친듯이 이 난국을 타개하기 위해 노력했다."

"I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.”

---Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993)
