Open Love Letter to Alex Prager

We're quite sure you've noticed that TBC doesn't shy away from the expression of love. Alex Prager's art has been catching our eye since 2006 and we don't want to be coy about the obsession anymore. We want the L.A. native to bring her show back home. Maybe this letter will be luring enough to do the trick... we hope. 

Dear Alex, 

There's a luring mystery behind your photographs that we just can't get enough of. Maybe it's the waxiness of the models skin, the different body types used, their daring poses, vintage clothes, or faux hair. Whatever it is, the concept works.

Being original is hard these days and we love you for steering clear of generic. Yet, you understood that it's important for your work to be gentle on the eyes which avoids confusion. We're looking forward to seeing these photographs in person one day! Till then we'll quietly comb through the corners of the web to find more of your work. 

All The Best,

The Bazaar Collection

Btw, we're suffering from location envy. If you're in New York go see her collection, we'll live vicariously through you! 

Pronunciation List of Fashion Designers

It's New York Fashion Week, and you want to talk about your favorite runway shows. But, you're not so sure how to pronounce a certain designer's name. Believe us, the TBC has been there. It wasn't until 2008, via Guts and Guile, that we learned we were supposed to make all of the "t's" in Yves Saint Laurent silent. Before that day, we always  butchered the famed designers name. It takes time to learn the proper pronunciation of them all but, here's a head start on the process. Godspeed ladies and gents!
