The Sherby57 Project often takes a look at life’s great mysteries. This time we’re looking at clothes. Yes Clothes.
I’ll be honest, as a rule, I hate clothes. I’d quite happily walk around naked if it wasn’t for your so-called ‘society’. But, clothes do exist and I have to accept it. If I’m going to wear clothes then they have to be ones with a spiritual element. This is why, on 9th June 2007, I wrote about my favourite clothing label, Geordie Jeans.
Follow the link and gaze upon the advertisement for the Newcastle-based clothing company. With the San Francisco skyline in the distance, the exiled geordie looks magnificent in his denim and magpie-striped sports jersey. Look at the calm, powerful look on his face as he checks the time on his watch. Wait a minute! He’s not wearing a watch! Oh yes, my friend, the geordies are a wily race, and exceptionally spiritually-enlightened. He has no need of your human concept of time, he is one with the universe.
So, we’ve picked some jeans, but what do we wear with them? A t-shirt? Sure, that’s a great idea, but what kind of t-shirt? Well, if you trust me (and I hope you do), then take a look at my Stag Do Chic (30th July 2007). Controversial French designer, Andre Ruson, challenged the norms of society by creating a high-fashion item based on a scuzzy home-made stag-do t-shirt. Truly thrilling. I hope you feel your perceptions being manually widened, like when a bear opens a juice box.
So, not so sniffy about clothes now are we?? Don’t worry, you’re welcome.
I’m back to comment on your blog. Have you missed me?
Yes I’ve missed you, I thought you’d run away with Hans and abandoned me.
Ah, nothing as glamourous as running away with Hans, tieing a trainer to a dog or ‘opening up a fresh caravan from it’s hole’. The online world just isn’t the same without me, I know.
I gave Hans a ring last night and he’s been outside his local hospital holding a candle light vigil waiting for your return to the wonderful wide world of the web.
