LOOKBOOK

While doing some 'research' for my PAT, this site right here was reccomended to me:

www.lookbook.nu





If you are a girl, and even if you are a boy, you will most probably either unashamedly love this website or at least be guiltily interested in it.

With the tagline: COLLECTIVE FASHION CONSCIOUSNESS, LOOKBOOK is an online community that showcases (according to their website) "member-uploaded street-style photography", which basically just means people take photos of themselves in whatever fashion tickles their fancy that day and puts it on the internet for the rest of the world to laugh at or draw inspiration from.

With obscure, unrelated photo titles like "I can't see your love anymore..." and "Fancy a cocktail by miuccia?" LOOKBOOK is the best place to find photography and fashion from everyday people and, depending on who you are, draw inspiration from it.

Personally I found it very useful - finding mainstream and alternative fashion from real people all over the world.

One girl in particular who I found interesting was Thelma Malna, a 17 year old from Finland whose photos mainly consisted of her in various black clothing and red lipstick on the floor with a very bright flash.
