ARTICLE FROM THE GUARDIAN

Alister Mackie

Works with Sophia Kokosolaki, Marc Jacobs and Martine Sitbon


Since graduating with a first and rave reviews from Central Saint Martins in 1995, Alister Mackie, 32, has been an influential voice in the fashion industry. He began working with Dazed & Confused in 1996 and assisted Katy England, working on fashion stories for the magazine and developing his contacts and experience. He has collaborated on shows with Ghost, Belgian designer Olivier Theyskens and People Corporation - an experimental collection designed by Roland Mouret in the mid-90s. 'I never really thought I would be a textile designer,' he says. 'As term progressed, I got more into casting, styling, accessories and music.'
These days, he has carved out quite a niche for himself as fashion director at Another Magazine, the brainchild of Dazed & Confused founders Jefferson Hack and Rankin Waddell. He combines his job with consultancies for Marc Jacobs and Martine Sitbon menswear, and with Athens-born, London-based designer Sophia Kokosolaki, one of fashion's brightest young stars.
Mackie has worked for five seasons with Kokosolaki. 'We meet up and look at funny references together and I'll bring fabrics and she'll take them sometimes and reinvent them. We'll talk about the vibe of the show. We don't always agree, but by now we totally understand each other.'
They share an interest in music and history. 'For the last show, we were looking at religious paintings. We wanted to do something ritualistic in the presentation. Sophia is very knowledgeable about religious iconography. I react to that. It's always quite pure, minimal and contemporary. We don't ever do period costume.'
As well as his work with Kokosolaki, Mackie is also a menswear expert, consulting on Marc Jacobs in New York and Martine Sitbon in Paris. Ultimately, he hopes that what he does makes a difference somewhere along the line. 'You'd hope it filters to people on the street, otherwise there's no point. You hope it's not just some insider's secret.'

yes, we've been missing a thread on him for so long!, I thought of starting one once but got amnesia somewhere in the idea, he's amazing!!, truly one of my favorites, he's made some of the most memorable stories with menswear, and he's pretty gorgeous, by the way. :crush:

by the way, Boheme didn't scan it garçonbis.. I did, they got it from here. and the actual name is not Boheme.. the story is untitled.

many thanks for the thread, cesar!.

scanned by (lovely) MulletProof @ TFS

^_^ but then it was only "same source" ..... and i figured out i forgot to take off the "scanned by me".

anyway. totaly off-topic.:blush:
 
So really bored here so I decided to do some research to see what my favorite stylist is up with lately....nothing new really came up in editorial work...but I'm waitng for Another Man ....This quote at dazed digital said that he's still styling Lanvin's collections, so he's an important part of the incredible good Lanvin collections

Rather unsurprisingly the most effortlessly beautiful menswear collection from A/W09 so far was Lanvin, who are at the height of their game. The genius behind Lanvin is both Alber Elbaz and Lucas Ossendrijver’s ability to create a collection wearable enough to make you want everything in your wardrobe, whilst managing at the same time to tie it all together to make a beautiful theatrical show out of it. Styled once again by Another Man’s fashion director Alister Mackie, the show included some of the key boys of the season and some exciting new faces, effortless layering, trousers tucked into equestrian boots, colorful boy scout caps, silk neck scarves floating down the runway, tone on tone looks and signature fabric experimentation all accumulated in an empty factory space. In familiar Lanvin humour, it concluded with a reassuring wave from an Obama look-alike leading the procession, a tongue in cheek nod to the current air of Obama mania.
He also did the styling for Fendi menswear

Still, transgression has been the spice in Fendi’s menswear for at least as long as stylist Alister Mackie has been working on the collection with Silvia.

And apparently he is/was creative consultant for Alexander McQueen too :shock: he's with the big ones :lol:

"Todd Lynn's an incredible craftsman. And he had something different about him - that Canadian cool thing. He wasn't one of those blazer- jeans-trainer wearers." His final year show was styled by Alister Mackie, a creative consultant to Alexander McQueen.
