"SCIENCE FICTION HAS ALWAYS BEEN USED AS A TOOL TO COMMENT ON OUR WORLD."
PIC(S) INFO: Part 2 of 2 -- Spotlight on textless & published cover art to "STAR TREK: Year Five" Vol. 1 #1. April, 2019. IDW Publishing. Artwork by Greg Hildebrandt (reportedly Greg's first ST piece EVER, and created at a then sprightly 80 years old).
PIC #3: Cover art to "PREVIEWS" [The Comic Shop's Catalog] #365 (published February 2019), also utilizing Greg Hildebrandt's now classic "STAR TREK: Year Five" painting.
Resolution from largest to smallest: 1901x2630, 1134x1722, & 1200x1584.
Q: "How well did you know the original "STAR TREK" series? What did/do you appreciate most about it?"
GREG HILDEBRANDT: "So, when it first aired, I saw every episode. In those days, I knew it well. Today, I am not sure I could give you specific information on episodes, with the exception of a few. But as far as what I appreciate most about it is something I certainly can still remember. It was always so thoughtful as far as the story content was concerned. Science fiction has always been used as a tool to comment on our world.
Sci-fi writers disguised our world in the fantastic to make it more interesting as a vehicle to make us look at ourselves. Right off the bat, I could see that this new space opera was going to attack social, political, religious and racial issues. Which to me was art operating on its highest plain. So, I was thrilled to see it become a cult classic and go into syndication. I knew at that point it would be around to make an impact on many generations to come."

Ann Lowe
American Couturier
Elizabeth Way
Contributions by Heather Hodge and Laura Mina and Margaret Powell and Katya Roelse and Katherine Sahmel
Rizzoli Electa, New York 2023, 208 pages, 23.6x28.68cm, ISBN 9780847873142
euro 60,00
email if you want to buy [email protected]
The definitive illustrated volume on the work and life of Ann Lowe, a consummate couturier who designed lavish evening and bridal gowns for members of America’s social registry, a Black woman working hard behind the scenes whose important legacy has remained underappreciated—until now.
At the height of her fashion career, Ann Lowe’s luxurious and opulent evening gowns and bridal wear were sold in upscale department stores across the country. At various times Lowe owned salons on Madison Avenue. She made Jackie Kennedy’s wedding and bridesmaids’ dresses, but, upon arrival at the Auchincloss estate on the big day, the butler directed Lowe to enter via the service entrance (she refused). Throughout her lifetime (c. 1898–1981), her major contributions to American style were unrecognized.
Vivid new photography of Lowe’s couture gowns—including lush details of her exquisite handwork and signature floral embellishments—accompany essays that explore the trials and achievements of Lowe’s life, contextualize her work within fashion history, profile Black designers whose work reflects her influence, and offer a behind-the-scenes look at the extraordinary efforts to preserve Lowe’s gowns.

Triumph TR3 Speciale, 1957. Prior to the Italia, Triumph’s US distributor Alick Dick had commissioned Vignale to come up with a car that would appeal to American tastes. The TR3 Speciale was designed by Michelotti heavy with American influences including a full width chrome grille, tail fins and headlights eyebrows. It remained a one-off but it inspired Triumph Motor’s British management to seek Michelotti’s help with their future model range, a relationship that persisted for the next 20 years

my 2024 winter color palette
it's not quite winter yet so let's start to plan out winter outfits and palette so we don't rush into bad outfits. Northern America (east coast baddies) tends to dress in really dull and plain colors, sometimes with pops of color. The last three colors are colors that I am trying to keep in rotation during winter so I do not end up in completely dull and bland outfits. The other 12 colors are colors I already have in my rotation.
the vibes: east coast big city

Nail inspo for the season :) keep it plain so it either compliments your outfit or stands out against it (ex. dull outfit with red nails)
