Day 1:
Request from 'said' publication: 'Would Madam Alexandra E. be available for an interview'?
Reply: 'With pleasure... but via phone' ( elusiveness sometimes gets the better of us)
Day8: One of the questions :
Request: (something along the lines of) : What does Madam Alexandra E think of the growing blogosphere?. A high profile Australian fashion industry insider was concerned that all the 'Tim Blanks' were taking over the industry.. and fashionista's would be following the words of fashion bloggers as opposed to those who have had more longevity within the industry. What does Madam Alexandra E. think of this?
Reply: Embrace the blogging phenomenon.. recognise it as the next big 'fashion must have/ accessory' on every fashionista's hand. Instead of sitting around thinking about the negative aspects of how it can affect the employment status of those in the fash. industry... try to sit down.. and work out ways to 'work together' in order for the Australian Fashion culture to become powerful in its own right!.
Recognise that fashion blogging is here to stay.. and yes the person blogging could be a nobody.. or could be a well known fashion identity.. or someone within the inside fashion industry.. but do not assume that the blogger has had no longevity!. Mwah xoxo. and last but not least.. do not feel threatened.
Fashion is global we should all be working together to make it 'bigger and better'
Confidence is beautiful... display it in moderation.. do not overuse its' existence to the point where it degrades. But please... don't take it too seriously.xo.
Love me or hate me
