“Technical garments for sporting performance will, I believe, simply become more and more fit for purpose and will perform better and better. What is perhaps more interesting is how this technology will cross over into the fashion mainstream. We already see this trend in everything from footwear to outerwear.” BelievePurposeI BelieveInterestingTechnologyFashionFitCrossesPerformancesTrendsMainstreamGarmentsFootwear Author:Giorgio Armani
“I was travelling with Bruce Sterling on our mutual Difference Engine tour and he became aware from the experience of travelling with me that I would distinguish among the shoes in a perfectly normal fashion, but form him it was a revelation. There's a very lyrical passage in Holy Fire about old wealthy European men and their shoes, and how beautiful their shoes are, and how there have never been shoes as beautiful. I think that that was probably as close as Bruce will ever get to homage in my direction. I made him aware of footwear fashion.” ThinkingMenMadeBeautifulFormDifferencesFireFashionHolyNormalShoesRevelationsMutualWealthyPassagesEnginesHomageLyricalSterlingFootwearPerfectly Normal Author:William Gibson
