Alena Doletskaya on fashion, style and Interview
Alena Doletskaya about her retirement from Vogue and is only changed something in her life after this
One editor said, "I know that if during the day starting to get angry at what used to not touch me, I must go - or in the long vacation, or even to blame."
And it is such a point that everyone should feel and do not miss it.
But in my case it was not a "burnout."
<After leaving Vogue> friends remained friends, relatives - close and far away and have remained distant.
How did the idea start Interview
I must say that the first with this idea - run in Russia Interview - Naomi came (Campbell - approx.).
It also, incidentally, very distressed, and was one of the first people called me then, on July 27.
She asked: "Where you going?".
I was like "apple."
Naomi went on: "Listen, well, you're not going to rest all the time? Maybe stir up something? Do you like anything in the West?".
So there was theme Interview.
And I'm honestly wanted to rest for two months, did not work.
On the very publication
Interview - this is purely an American edition, it never went beyond the United States.
And its creators did it on purpose, because the magazine is special: it is cool, this New York Downtown, on the other hand, it is in the pages of this magazine were born stars.
Literally born.
In Interview for me the main thing - the remarkable elasticity.
I've worked in archives in New York and I knew: had never seen so easily changing gay magazines.
From artovskogo vulger to just ...
When it did Warhol (Andy Warhol - American painter, founder of the edition, approx.), It was on newsprint, but the steeper the slope of all, because it was real life and drive.
And, of course, a lot of fashion.
About who sees the heroes Doletskaya Interview
Will people and the famous and not so, and the great ones, and those who were still no one knows.
We will take the responsibility to open those people who we think will take a worthy place in the creative Olympus.
Not tomorrow.
Announcement, prediction, forecasting and general placement of a talented person on the card of creative life.
I wish that it was not only cheerful, open, and very frank magazine.
I would like to let people hear about his, about the creative, personal space, in the end about the attitude to life, in a large sense.
About Fashion
From fashion can not escape, and, frankly, does not want her to go.
Another question that I was equally interested in style.
I think that style is now beginning to push fashion.
Because to do something entirely new in fashion is extremely difficult, but all continue to compete, and fashion designers are under tremendous pressure and every six months should give a fresh collection.
Fashion - an industry.
That's a lot of money.
This is not art for art's sake.
You came, you are drawn, you sewed - and it must be a demand.
The second point - the trend.
This was debated last five years, and editors and critics of fashion.
They say basically that trend - it's an artificial idea that women who are out of fashion, can answer the question: what we wear this fall?
This simplifies the process of commerce.
On the revolutionaries of the fashion world
Of course.
Miuccia Prada.
It is revolutionary, and in the soul, and mind, and in the profession.
Why Prada wins?
She wins by surprise.
It's not all love.
A lot of people love to get used to any brand.
Was still a revolutionary who left the profession Austrian Helmut Lang.
About the scandal of John Galliano
We must understand that in France any manifestations of nationalism and chauvinism are considered very painful.
Conflict of heavy, not so easy to experience it, because it got in general, everything.
Many people think that fashion - it's frills, tucks, some kind of girly nonsense.
But first and foremost a business - and a severe stress over the past few years have seen a serious loss of creative talent.
Pressure, pressure.
And - failure. I'll See what happens with John Galliano, I certainly wish him the best.
