Petra Collins “Reading and writing was difficult for me because I’m dyslexic. My grades were terrible. I needed art to succeed.” - Petra Collins, Artist. When Petra Collins was a young girl growing up in Toronto she felt neither smart nor beautiful. Now when she returns to her hometown the photographer-turned-artist is seen as one of he city’s most cutting-edge talents. At 26 years old, Collins has already collaborated with a who’s who of artistic icons, including filmmaker Richard Kern and blogger-actress Tavi Gevinson. Collins landed a recurring role in ‘Transparent’ Amazon’s Golden Globe-winning ‘dramedy’ launched a collection of menstruation theme T-shirts with ‘American Apparel’ and even got kicked off Instagram for her edgy depictions of femininity. The offending image? A self-portrait in a two-piece – in which she skipped the bikini wax. Now a New York resident, her work often reflects on women’s issues. Her book ‘Babe’ published under the ‘Prestel' imprint brings together 30 female artists for a “yearbook of sorts” dedicated to exploring the modern female psyche. Among the represented voices are a global rose of young, creative phenomena most of whom have partnered with Collins on her website the ‘Arduous’ or on magazine products at ‘Rookie’ or ‘Vice’ where Collins has served as a guest editor. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #words #pictures #neon #urchin #petracollins #photographer #artist #filmmaker #guesteditor #vice #rookie #prestel #babe #transparent #toronto #tavigevinson https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxeg62gga7t/?igshid=1ekdjsz1i0jhk

The Tavi Tagsale
By Sophie Guimaraes
“Hey…,” I say to Tavi Gevinson. I’m unsure of how to pronounce her first name and my head is crowned with a tangled mess of hair. My nose is running from both the cold and a cold. Perhaps the wind has lifted my dress in the back and perhaps I’m flashing all of Brooklyn, but all of that can be overlooked. I am having a casual and jocular conversation with the young woman Janet Mock deemed “queen of millennials.” I maintain laser-like focus on the pair of pretty eyes in front of me and try my hardest not to stare at her ultra-cool boots. Both are green.
Fashion wunderkind, magazine editor, and writer Tavi Gevinson hosted a tag sale this past weekend and all proceeds went to Housing Works. Naturally, I took the C train all the way to Brooklyn with FLASH Mag’s creative director, Emma Childs, and together we raided unwanted clothes from the closets of Tavi and her friends.
Tavi Gevinson is a significant figure in a number of ways. First and foremost, she was a member of the first generation of fashion bloggers with her blog, The Style Rookie.
The first photo I ever saw of Tavi. It was in an issue of Teen Vogue from somewhere around the turn of the decade. I was instantly confused—and fascinated.
A decade ago, the now-prolific pastime of fashion blogging had no precedent, and the movers and shakers of the day—Jane Aldridge and BryanBoy, to name a few—were forging a new path in the digital world. Enter Tavi, who at 11 years old made a name for herself by dressing like a grandma. Well, a grandma only sometimes: she really just wore whatever she wanted and had fun with the idea of dressing herself (I mean, have you ever heard of someone fashioning a belt out of measuring tape?). She quickly became well-known for her creative, unusual, and witty sense of style. Fast forward to 2011: after she blew up as a fashion blogger, Tavi founded Rookie Magazine, a publication that publishes art of all kinds created by and for teenagers. She achieved all of this before turning her ripe current age of 21. But what makes her success truly striking is her intelligence, which is only bolstered by her consciousness of the culture around her and the way in which she impacts it (examples here, here, and here). And she’s kind.
A caption from 2010 (age 13): “I was told I look like an Oompa Loompa during lunch and it made my day increasingly better.” What other 13-year-old would say that?
So let’s talk about these clothes.
Each rack was an explosion of color and texture, featuring fleecy cyan jackets, purple fur coats, scratchy gold pants, and plastic-y black shirts. There were too many sequined and beaded pieces for my own good and loud patterns abound.
One of my favorite pieces was an 80’s-style windbreaker dashed with white, silver, gray, and gold; it vaguely reminded me of a Japanese woodblock print. I also liked a tube skirt that was shrouded in iridescent greenish-peachy-yellow sequins. I thought about buying it. Then I thought about the ten other sequined clothing items I own. I reflected on my aspirations of being a chic, aloof New Yorker covered in head-to-toe black. I walked away.
There were also a couple of boiler suits, which were tempting because a) the idea of a long-sleeve one-piece jumpsuit is an alluring one, and b) the lead singer of my favorite band often wears them on stage (hiiiii, @sgadhia from @youngthegiant). A stripey pair of shorts reminded me of the old New Miley Cyrus, the one from her Bangerz era. It would be cool paired with something simple on top, like maybe a gray sweatshirt of some sort. Gym class chic.
A fluorescent top made of coarse silken material stood out; it was patterned with neon flowers and lined in black like a ringer tee. A fine leather jacket also called my name—I’ve been looking for a good one—but while the dainty gold chains on the shoulder said yes, my budget said no.
And, in a truly iconic display of pattern-mixing, Tavi herself paired this velvet, floor-length, mock-Chinese dress with a bulbous costume necklace. Both were cheetah print, both worked beautifully together. Mind-blowing.
Whatcha got there, Emma?
Contrary to my expectations, not a lot of the clothes were designer. Save for a few LeSportsac pieces and one Prada top, the majority of the items on sale were of brands unfamiliar to me. It sent a strong message, one that I didn’t anticipate from someone who has been so ingrained in designer circles for the entirety of her adolescence and beyond. Her collection of clothes truly proved that style transcends trends and labels, the sellable notions of what’s fashionable. Style transcends the binds of capitalism and time.Emma and I waited in line to talk to the one and only Tavi, the host of this streetside party and the person who inspired Emma to create her own magazine (@childsplaymagazine!).
I nudged her arm with my elbow. “I’m going to gas you up like you’ve never been gassed before.” So I did. After the initial greeting and awkward pause that followed, I grabbed Emma by the shoulders and blabbed about her creative endeavors. Tavi really liked Emma’s theme for issue #4, by the way. The theme is intimacy.
The queen of the day herself. She wore black jeans, a varsity jacket with patches that spell “BOWIE”on the back, giant white clip-on earrings in the shape of stars, and super-cool printed boots.
You should pick up a copy when it comes out—the link will be on the Instagram page.
Before coming to Tavi’s tagsale, Emma and I made a pact: we were each going to buy a piece of clothing and we were each going to make a friend. We talked to some girls in line about dogs, of course—true friendship—but what did we get? Emma bought those delicious wrapping-paper, tapestry, silver-and-gold Christmas-y pants that you might have spotted in a few photos. As for me, I bought a jacket that I didn’t try on until I got to the subway. The sleeves were shorter and the shoulders were wider than I expected, but you know the old saying Tim Gunn whispers into my ear each morning as I navigate another day of life: “Make it work.”
Still unsure as to what vibe this jacket exudes. Chic Londonite student from Oxford? Star of the high school marching band? Aging politician from the 80’s? I’m still trying to figure it out. I suppose that’s part of the fun.
Signing off,
Sophie
