Kate Moss succumbs to a new state in ‘Women of Style’ by Tim Walker for Vogue Italia, September 2015. Walker wields his magic wand as we find ourselves lost in another world. In a rush of fashion must, Moss is outfitted in authentically inspired designs. The art of decadence is learned as the act of defiance is spurned. Torn between who we are and what we should become. Walker dares to breach the walls that separate the past and future. Luxurious layers poetically mix in artful portrayal. Stylist, Jacob K, covers the body in a combination of contemporary garb. The culture of creativity captured under the tutelage of truth. Like a defiant child caught in the wind, Kate buckles her coat to begin again. Scenic beauty borne in the curves of her captivating face. Blushing like a schoolgirl flushed (Makeup Artist) Sam Bryant bares the reddish hue of her colored cheeks. Naked eyes lure us in with subtlety seen in sharpness of her stare. Hairstylist, Julien d’Ys, ignores the rules of gravity by creating high hair-art. Like a sculpted installation, coiffured curls stand straight up saluting to the sanctity of style. Theatrical musings mirror the magic of modern masquerade with costumes covered in creative attire. Focus fathoms through the looking-glass of lunacy, as Moss mystifies as a Geisha “type” Girl.
The Colors of Kate…
Life lures us away
on a road with no name
a somber young pathway
a play with no game,
I cry out in silence
I scream open loud
bare the pain of my past
wear the hurt like a shroud,
on my shoulders will be
the love that I lost
the burdens of hope
the heartbreak of cost,
to scour and scurry
and leave all behind
in a scrambling mess
the tortures of time,
aiming for goodness
I’ll fall to the floor
reach out my arms
and call out once more,
searching for sanity
I shout out and say
~ this is the time
~ this is the day
~ here’s where I will be
~ and where I will stay.
