THE NU RAVE DAYS//




I STILL HAVE QUITE A CHUCKLE WHEN I THINK BACK TO MY NU RAVE PHASE IN 2007. ONE OF MY FONDEST MEMORIES IS WHEN I STUMBLED UPON THIS PHOTOSHOOT THAT MARIO TESTINO WAS DOING FOR VOGUE UK. I WAS COMPLETELY STAR STRUCK AND WAS EVEN MORE SURPRISED TO SEE SUZY MENKES AND MANOLO BLAHNIK TAKING PART. I WAS COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH ANYTHING NU RAVE FROM THAT MOMENT ON. OH, THOSE WERE THE DAYS

    Tommy,

    Please hear us out (I say this in behalf of Alicia/InstantVintage, too). Your blog should be published into a coffee table book. You have the best photos and to me, it’s far better and more modern than the polished, proper, non-rule breaking shots of The Sart. Adrian Cosin must collab with you on it.

    XOXO.

    This reminds me that it’s still like 2001, 2002 etc. When something get’s really popular just for tops a year. Why can’t it be like in the 60′s, 70′s, 80′s and even 90′s?
