Dear Reader 

I hope you are all doing well in this first month of the year. I am here to announce that I have started a new series on YouTube entitled, What's The Deal With Parisians? / Paname Obsession Series. With this series, I am aiming to bring a new respect to French fashion culture, lifestyle and history by giving more context to their references and shedding a light upon the ideas and people which have influenced it. This is something I feel is important to discuss because at surface level many it appears that many people overlook the depth of these references and do not really appreciate the impact they have had on the international outlook on fashion, art and culture. In this series, I explain some of the significance these references have on the contemporary fashion and lifestyle landscapes.

In the first episode I talk about Jane Birkin as a starting point who is undoubtedly at the core of this culture as a pioneer and an everlasting muse. I hope you enjoy these videos, and please let me know what you think. I would love your input, and I look forward to keep on inspiring others to be persistent in what they believe in.

Sincerely

Skirt Editor
