Kati Nescher discovers ‘The Discreet Charm of Mauvais Goût’ in this inspired editorial by Nathaniel Goldberg for Document Journal No.3. Is bad taste really a crime? Flirting with disaster Nescher follows her own fashion path as she walks through the city wearing an eccentric mix of ill-conceived creations. In an industry overrun with the redundant output of over-used designs, it is here in the decadent bubble of defiant dressing that we witness the process of discernment disintegrate before our eyes. Using the art of fashion to fight the war on style James Valeri takes a stance against the systematic lowering of artistic standards with a series of eclectic looks meant to provoke thought and inspire change. From bare-skin and fur to topsiders & tweed, today’s true taste makers are on the cutting-edge of style lighting their own fashion fires with the sartorial sparks of righteous irreverence. The ultimate anti-fashion fashion statement, Goldberg deconstructs the discrimination process by providing a powerful mix of modern looks that dare to redefine the idea of, “good taste.”
