Whenever someone throws a passing corny question saying "Are you a heater because man you are so hot!", I often doubt their sense of creativity and impracticality of choosing an inanimate object to describe someone who is living. Must someone be a heater to be hot? Why not a hair dryer? Are there biasness I am sensing in choosing electronics? Couldn't they have just went with something like "Are you (insert hot supermodel here, usually Victoria Secret's Angels are the first few to pop up) because man you are hot!"?
Though, I would have to say you might score well in Literature for producing imagery.
Actually, I take that comment back. Maybe I wouldn't mind being a heater; only if I was the heater residing in Alexander Wang's Fall '14 show. Initially, you'll see his regular ready-to-wear pieces, starting of with grey coats with incisions and orifices that actually summed up into pockets, paired with knee high boots that gradually phased into mule booties (!!!!), which then turned into a whole (relatively unexpected) neon colored party and the pockets eventually became bags. The entire collection was witty; I like it for the fact that Wang did not just produced his signature black/grey/white three color combination, but brought a little hint of neon colors into his game (which then lingered on to his Spring '15 collection and those sneaker bags!!!). But hey, that's not the best part.
Everywhere turned pitch black and then all of the sudden you'd realized that models were donned in an entire black outfit, standing in a huge pseudo-cult circle, as though they are waiting to be either sacrificed or exorcised. Lol, jk. They then start to spin and gradually, each model were paused in front of a black heater (aka the heater I wouldn't mind being) and laser-cut neon patterns started to emerge and materialize from the black. It was amazing, first it was glow-in-the-dark during Spring '13 (which they are resurgence of those mesh t-shirts with his H&M collaboration!!!!) and then heat technology in Fall '14? How amazing is that?
I'm still stoked over how awesome he'd managed to inculcate such 'technology' into fabric and leather; just imagine you are able to have their signature Rocco studded bag in a bright blue hue in summer, and a darker navy hue during fall. That's what I call killing two birds with one stone!
So in any case if you guys are keen to actually possess such lovely interchangeable clothes and accessories that would result you to feel like an amazing fashionable chameleon when you're standing right next to a heater, a warmer or me (since I am emulating Alexander Wang's heater), Shopbop is now offering some of this luck (minus the skirt though).
Clockwise from far left: Square heat tech t-shirt that turns bright blue like that Rocco purse when exposed to heat, Chastity colour changing clutch that changes from supernova to flamingo (aka dark red to pink in layman terms), their signature Rocco heat tech studded bag, Lys heat sensor booties from soil brown to sunshine yellow and Stretched thermo knit skirt from black to neon green.
Are you ready for this amazing ability to 'metamorph'? I would safely say hands down, I am up for being a fashionable Mystique.
