I like your colour mix and pattern mix.</p> <p>Regarding the scuffs on your white boots: Perhaps you are able to "repair", or rather camouflage, them with nail polish in a suitable colour? I sometimes do this with footwear, belts and bags, securing them a longer life for a small amount of money. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein/page/2#post-1897620 Sun, 11 Mar 2018 13:50:22 +0000 rachylou 1897620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Debora!

One of your best ever. The stripes, the white footwear, the flares - the fur...it is perfect for the opera house!

I don’t suppose it’s hard to heat and cool big spaces like that.</p> <p>Krishnidoux, no no. That’s exactly right. These things inform everything - including fashion. The costuming and set were amazing. </p> <p>You know, I was in fact wondering if the current crop could stage something like Giselle as well as Frankenstein. You have to understand to do these ballets. One of the worst things I ever saw was the Chinese ballet doing Giselle - they were fantastic doing their Red March piece, completely confused with the idea of romantic love gone wrong, lol. They didn’t even seem to get the tutus. In this Frankenstein, I note, their were no tutus. None of that ‘strange’ short netting sticking straight out from the body.</p> <p>Maybe Coppelia is an old ballet the young peeples would do well... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein/page/2#post-1897479 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 20:27:30 +0000 Beth Ann 1897479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes!&nbsp; I see Annie Hall, too!&nbsp; I hear you about the theater growing more hot during the evening -- this is really common, unfortunately, so I always feel like I need to layer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein/page/2#post-1897477 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 20:19:39 +0000 krishnidoux 1897477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, this happens to my students too.<br /> Frankenstein is an interesting story for millenials because it connects with them is special way. As a monster, Frankenstein also represents something inanimate that becomes animate; this at the time of Industralization. Factories replaced agricultural work, everybody moved massively to the cities. Whereas before, the artisan had been master of his shop, manipulating his trusted tools with art, now the worker was made servant to impersonal, big factory machines that could accomplish the work of many men at once. There was an ambivalent feeling then towards these mechanized silent metal beings: were they benevolent, bringing progress and wealth, easing lives and promises of a better world, or were they evil beasts that took away craftsmen’s livelihoods, crushed families and lives, and could quite literally gobble up someone’s leg or arm within its sharp, engineered fangs ...? This ambivalence made its way into fiction and especially in fantastic literature, where new monsters arose, inanimate beings who were magically, mysteriously given A life if their own: golems, vampires, Frankenstein and the likes. Eerily, similar to automated machines, these creatures had no conscience, but certainly the ability to move on its own and help or kill...<br /> Now young generations of the 21st century are in the midst of another revolution and their world as they know it is transformed rapidly by a new entity: AI<br /> Rach, I’ll sorry for having hogged your thread with this long comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897475 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 19:57:59 +0000 rachylou 1897475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg, Angie! I wish I’d bought two pairs of these white boots!</p> <p>Krish, you’re right about Annie Hall! Hadn’t thought of that and now I love it!</p> <p>Jane - whenever I look at that big chandelier... we’re earthquake country, I will NEVER get tickets in the orchestra seating area and sit under that thing!!! </p> <p>Carla, I suspect Gen X also is unfamiliar. I’ve known several people who majored in art history because, I think, their minds were blown by discovering ‘secret religious symbolism’ in old art. That is, they had to study it because they didn’t just see it. When I was young and mean, a college friend made me join her and some others for a read of Flannery O’Connor and a discussion of her religious symbolism. I rolled my eyes thru it, thinking this was all paint-by-numbers. Lol. Wasn’t I a snot? Lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897468 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 19:06:47 +0000 krishnidoux 1897468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Desperately trying to post my comment here- it was erased twice!!! Well, Rach, this outdid is simply outstanding. I had not seen it was a suit-with the lighting pants show black on my screen. It’s altogether enticing, inspiring, understated and spectacular. Every part speaks to another, hair tint with jacket, tie with shirt, boots with coats embroidery... this outfit is a modern wink to Annie Hall that suits you so well. I like your hair this way with it. And the coat is very cute too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897467 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 19:02:55 +0000 Jane 1897467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou, what a great outfit. The stripes and polka dots are cool and the white shoes are gorgeous. Great coat, too. The show sounds excellent. I am glad you enjoyed it.&nbsp;</p> <p>The theatre looks gorgeous, I love the ornate plaster work. (All the theatres in the UK have to have annual surveys to check that they aren't affected by water ingress and are stable enough to take the impact of sound, after the Apollo theatre in London collapsed a few years ago. Quite a bit off topic.)</p> <p>The museum sounds interesting, interesting comments about millennials.</p> <p>I haven't read Frankenstein, but I am thinking that I would like to now.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897465 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 16:49:12 +0000 Carla 1897465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! What a great outfit, Rachylou. Perfect, in every way and your hair works too!</p> <p>Interesting point about religion and millennialis. Several years ago I was leading some tutorials on....yes, Shelley's Frankenstein, but I had to give a tangential crash course on religion because the kids didn't know their bible stories and how they informed so much of early literature. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897447 Sat, 10 Mar 2018 16:06:29 +0000 Angie 1897447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>Loving the flares, pattern mix and embroidery, Rachy. Aren’t white shoes the best?

Mother thinks it’s weird, but it’s warm and not gear.</p> <p>Three shows in one weekend is a lot! Lol</p> <p>The skull curtain was pretty amazing. Different. Probably good for the millenials and under. The museum across the way has night hours now... also for the millennials... we went so early we visited. The feature exhibit was definitely written by millenials for millenials. The write ups were so odd... clear discomfort with big words and, as it was about religious art, well they were trying to explain the whole notion of religion itself. Not the meaning of this or that religious symbol, but ‘why depict divinity’ and ‘how you can understand how anyone could conceive of divinity.’ I don’t think you’d have had to explain this in previous times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frankenstein#post-1897277 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 18:09:06 +0000 Anonymous 1897277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everyone who saw you must have taken a second look at this spectacular outfit. I love that coat! </p>
