AMEONNA, RAIN SPIRIT OF JAPAN
A couple weeks ago I asked for some suggestions of Asian folklore for Textbook and got tons of responses, so thanks for that. The first one up is Ameonna, a Japanese rain spirit. Legend has it that she exists as a cloud in the daytime and rain in the evening. Pretty snazzy. Collection wise I was happy to hit up Tsumori Chisato and you know, Rodarte because I use them for everything. Hooray for...

PERSEPHONE, QUEEN OF HADES
So this past weekend I was boning up on my Greek Mythology, you know by watching Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief because I’m 13 and I thought I’d give Persephone a try. Traditionally she is known as queen of Hades but before that she was just a goddess who was chillin. One day she was hanging out with her nymph friends and Hades kidnapped her. TWIST! Meanwhile,...

BALMAIN FALL '11
I get a lot of shit for supporting Balmain across the board. But good god, this collection was awesome. I’ve been keeping an eye on their menswear and it gets a little better every season. True it is outrageously expensive, but the menswear is much more approachable then womenswear. Plus, it’s exactly the way I like to dress. I do believe I’ll pick up some Balmain come Fall...

I can’t wait to see this, it’s going to be amazing. Every time I see Mr. Cunningham around, I freak out. He’s an institution here in the city and in the fashion world. I think Anna Wintour says it all in the trailer, “I’ve said many times that we all get dressed for Bill…” Can’t wait.

I NEED SOME HELP GUYS
So lately I’ve been really into Chinese Opera…don’t ask me how it started because I couldn’t tell you. As I was rolling around the city listening to Chinese Opera it made me realize that Asian Literature/History has been SORELY neglected here on Textbook. So if you have any suggestions let me know—folklore, legends, history, stories, mythology, anything is welcome....
