Somehow she manages to but things together and puts words to things I’ve thought about but not been able to but words to.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rachel-comey#post-2149749 Fri, 23 Oct 2020 03:12:27 +0000 Jaime 2149749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great quote! I like Rachel Comey but I don't know if one designer can be expected to do this for every woman - but the principle is inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rachel-comey#post-2149725 Fri, 23 Oct 2020 00:35:11 +0000 Anonymous 2149725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She’s a smart writer and I’ve always enjoyed her editorials . That’s a great quote . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rachel-comey#post-2149724 Fri, 23 Oct 2020 00:34:07 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2149724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachel Comey’s clothes appeal to me, but rarely fit me (they seem designed for herons and ostriches but not juncoes or indigo buntings) (I own a cardigan that dates from my entrée to YLF.) I came across this quote from NYT’s Vanessa Friedman about a recent Rachel Comey collection that appeals to me, that manifests what I would like from my clothing in general:</p> <p>“These clothes do what fashion should do, which is frame the complexities of the wearer with grace but without oversimplification, so the person becomes more of who they are. The clothes don’t have an agenda of their own, but they facilitate the agenda of the woman who wears them.” </p>
