Blogging for Benetton
I’m blogging now for the Benetton It’s My Time Campaign, which seems in line with what I do on Stylites. Like them, my focus may begin with fashion, but the broader goal is always about telling stories of people here in Beijing.
My blogging with them over the next month or so will give some of the people appearing on Stylites a new place to express their styles, viewpoints and aspirations. However, my first entry is on something a bit different. I decided to discuss the top ten trends for 2010 and beyond. Everyone has to try their hand at the whole forecasting thing once in a while. Among my trends are “hip holidays” and “iconoclastic simplicity” but please check out the rest here.
Very interesting and insightful trend forecast. How thorough and sophisticated do you think the local youth’s take on “iconoclastic simplicity” is?
Really great writing!
Are there new world’s to conquer?
from this article it looks like you may have a bright future as a forecaster. the new trends are very exciting and i’m hoping the west will adapt to the changing climate as well. especially the inspiration from within; as opposed to stalking outside sources for ‘cool’ the new decade is all about individualism and not being force fed anything. the human species has evolved well beyond that point.
