(from the editor)
Despite what you might observe on newsstands or theE! network, fashion isn’t all about looks. It’s about being
comfortable in what you’ve got on and being condent
about what you’re showing to the world. What fashionswe choose say a substantial amount of how we viewourselves.For example, I can choose to be an indie slacker one day(faded jeans, retro sneakers and a snarky t-shirt) and a
condent media mogul the next (Hugo Boss suit). I can
morph into countless personalities simply by changing my
outt. And while you can argue that clothes don’t make
the person, fashion provides us with a cultural shortcut
to easily dene who we are, or more importantly, who we
want to be.Of course, fashion is much more than an individual
decision – it is a societal institution reecting an era’s
prevailing thoughts and values. Good fashion is like art, inthat it says something. It can be an elegant message ortake a revolutionary stance. It can be subtle or downrightobvious (anyone remember the George Michael “ChooseLife” t-shirts?). Fashion can quite literally change how wethink.With that introduction, what better than for Cesium tocelebrate all things fashion. We take a bit of time to check
out some young artists working in fabric, dene fashion
for audio geeks and explore the fashion of modern Neo-conservatism. There’s another fashionable short story fromChuck Dooley and even something about Zoolander (youhad to have seen it coming).Throw on those spats and celebrate with us.
