Je voudrais

I came across this video at the Fashion Clash, and it left a very strong impression on me. 

Not only is the styling perfectly done; she is clearly an assertive high demanding woman. And the plates are made up so perfectly that you could imagine to be served one of them while dining in a stylish restaurant. 

Also the story behind it is very clear and strong. 

"It portrays an insatiable desire for fashion, a hunger that is illustrated in a never ending dinner where food and jewelry merge, creating an irresistible temptation."

Something I thought about a lot myself. Isn't it a shame that every new collection follows up so rapidly? 

Before we get the time to truly admire some of the pieces they are already out of fashion. You can just as well throw them away the moment you buy them, because next years collection already shows us that it will be horrible dated in a few months.

No one takes the effort to produce real quality clothes, let alone wearing them. Why should a coat be made to last if you will only wear it for a few months before something better shows up? 

If you go back to the early ages of fashion you see that those dresses where build to last a live time, or at least a decade. You wouldn't buy a new one every week, but look at the luxury, the quality of the fabrics and the richness of the details, something that nowadays is only seen in haute couture. Something only the wheltiest of us can afford.
