‘My paper weaving technique — a process of interlacing objects with memories — attempts to redefine the commonplace book structure with chapters emerging from seams. The garments reveal new beginnings, life lessons and notable achievements. Memories evoke garments; garments evoke memories.’

‘The concept I’m trying to portray is: Nothing can cover the flaws we have, and the flaws, the flesh we were born with is who we truly are. They are even more truthful to what we are trying to make ourselves; this is why some of the area of the dress are not meant to be covered up. The dress barely covers the whole body. It is meant to be see-through to display the body in its whole and that since we all are imperfect is an important concept.’

Julie Tierney is an incredible designer; part fashion, part graphic design, part something else. That something else landed her a spot on last season’s Project Runway.

Julie is now working on a snowboard-inspired Americana clothing line – and seeking funding on Kickstarter. Drop her some bucks, k? She needs a few things.

‘Death does determine life  . . . .  Once life is finished it acquires a sense; up to that point it has not got a sense; its sense is suspended and therefore ambiguous. However, to be sincere I must add that for me death is important only if it is not justified and rationalised by reason. For me death is the maximum of epic-ness.’ –Pier Paolo Pasolini

So while I’m still in seafood mode, I should mention my absolute favorite food is Dungeness Crab.

I grew up eating these west coast crustaceans, dusted with Old Bay seasoning, partnered with slabs of sourdough bread. All I need is a small fork and I can get thru the whole thing in under an hour – no cracking necessary. The obsessive trick is to get every single piece out intact – and dip it in melted butter.

Saw this shirt in Old Navy; but alas, not available as a men’s tee.

‘The range moniker pays homage to The Third Mind, a 1978 book and concept by William Burroughs and Brian Gysin, which showcased the ‘cut ups’ technique originating from the Surrealists – a form also adapted to film making by Kenneth Anger and Maya Deren. In this mode, unrelated texts and images where literally cut up and rearranged to form radical narratives and vistas.’

Another highlight from this season’s Project Runway is Colorado-based fashion designer Julie Tierney.

I love how Julie’s design inspiration comes from multiple, multiple sources – which she then takes to another place – familiar, dramatic and  . . .  layered.

Above, sketches.

Below, chronological images from her 2010 Nomad’s Land collection; starting with pages from her inspiration book thru to the runway.

A direct interpretation of Nomadic life would be a bit obvious – but this goes elsewhere. Julie doesn’t make obvious. Genghis Khan with tube socks and a snowboard. Then Julie.

Beautiful results.
