身處時裝泡沫裡的女人們總是懂得裝扮自己,是對時裝的熱情,是每日工作的盔甲和動力,也是一份虛榮;但可惜越進入電子時代,穿衣打扮是為了給別人看,而不是自己看了。知名國際時尚記者Suzy Menkes更形容現在時裝週有如動物園。到2019年還有誰能堅持自己,將自我表達推至極致?我們想到了Anna Piaggi、Isabelle Blow,還有即將在下個禮拜一2019 CFDA美國時尚設計師協會大獎上獲得媒體獎的Lynn Yaeger。

出生在紐約長島的Lynn Yaeger,當她不在寫作的時候,她一定流連在世界各地的跳蚤市場。她以風趣幽默的點評文筆以及專一不變的個人造型成為最多人認識的時裝記者,更對於美國政治以及現時美國第一夫人Melania Trump的時尚品味毫不留情。2008年起,在《The Village Voice》貢獻了30年的她正式專注於時裝報導,成為Vogue的特約編輯及作家。

對於Lynn Yaeger的標誌個人風格,單憑頻繁出現在時裝展front row以及街頭攝影師捕捉的畫面已經給予了我們強烈的視覺印象—復古且頑皮。弓形的山峰唇妝、兩點面頰上的粉色胭脂,還有接近純色的橘紅色Bob短髮是她一年365天也不會歇息或改變的專一造型。如洋娃娃般的蓬蓬裙、Repetto平底鞋、皮草、頭巾還有印有她畫像的Goyard手袋都是她的摯愛。光看第一個人的外表竟然體會到一點點她的內在幽默性格,這種表達是令人佩服的。

她曾分享過她總是很清楚自己想要的樣子,大約在八歲時她就意識到自己穿褲子不好看,所以就告訴整個街區的孩子都不要再穿褲子了。到今天,她的裝扮仍然像個只愛穿裙子的孩子:「有時我會在街上看到一個兩歲大的女孩穿著芭蕾舞紗裙、一件有趣的毛衣和圓點短襪,我會說這是我的樣子。」

Inspirational women like Lynn Yaeger are what keep the fashion fantasy alive, and a little fantasy is needed now more than ever.
