Top 30: Owens Vs. Pugh


Rick Ownes F 2011 left Vs. Gareth Pugh F 2011 right

The open support from Owens to former intern Pugh is really great to see in an industry of cut throat competition. But even more interesting is the obvious but subtle dialogue going on between these two in cuts, accessories, headpieces, hair, make-up and shoes.

Top 30: Bowie Vs. Jones


Bowie with Twiggy for Pin-Ups, 1973

David Bowie and Grace Jones represent an intersection of music, fashion and androgyny. Each of them, in stark contrast, have an intensity that captivates and a creative personality that is larger than life. They are living art.
