Why don't you,,,
Make Diane Pernet your Role Model?

ダイアンペルネをロールモデルにしたらどう？

Do you know Diane Pernet?

She was active as a costume designer in New-York during the 80s. Then she became the editor of a fashion magazine and concentrated mainly on the runway scene.

Now as a fashion film journalist, she sponsoring a movie about fashion, style and beauty that she curated, called A Shaded View on Fashion Film (ASVOF).

The truth is that I myself learned about her from a blog article on Webflakes, the site that translates my articles into English (oh my, sorry for being so ignorant).

I haven't caught up yet on what kind of a person she is personality-wise, but I recognized her the moment the article below popped in front of my eyes:

5 Striking Webflakes Personalities To Keep An Eye On

After all, you can't really forget someone like her, can you?

I was so inspired to be able to actually meet her this time in Tokyo at the opening of A Shaded View On Fashion Film!!

If you look at the picture I'm sure you'd understand: having style means that when taking photos you don't blur and you don't fuzz. 

I'm not talking about techniques of taking pictures, but look at the people around her: they're all blurring galore (well, that does include your truly). They're all so bland; they don't leave a mark in your memory at all, do they?

However, Diane Pernet herself has already burned a mark in the back of your mind, hasn't she? You are not likely to forget her, are you?

That's what I'm talking about! Having style. 

It is about not getting diverted by other things every moment. Take pride in your overwhelming presence, and burn your existence bright and clear into people's minds.

There are people who can do this who were born with good looks, or who cosistently wear the same fashion, unchanged (of course regular fashion is a no-no); there are many ways to have style. 

It's not an easy thing being consistent, not diverting, deciding completely about your own character role, because ordinary people tend to change depending on the time, or the day or their mood.

Moreover, no everybody can make themselves wear a head-turning style on days they don't feel confident about themselves.

That's why people change over and over.

Of course in her case, after having accumulated experience over a colorful long life, the totally-black style she has appropriated for herself is like that of a widow.

Her resignation about living is different, isn't it?

But for those of you who are still young, who haven't looked for yourselves, who have no experience or self confidence... for the likes of you, this is hard. You probably still want to enjoy all kinds of different things.

But, if you think you would like to have a certain style someday, 

why don't you make Diane Pernet your role model?

ダイアンペルネ（Diane Pernet）様をご存知？
80Sをニューヨークでコスチュームデザイナーとして活躍。
その後ファッション誌のエディターに転身し、ruwayシーンをメインに取材

今はファッションフィルムジャーナリストとして、ファッション・スタイル・ビューティーのムーヴィーをキュレートしたA Shaded View On Fashion Film（ASVOF）主催

実は私も、ブログを英語に訳してくれているWEBFLAKESの記事で彼女のこと
を知ったのよ（ああ、疎くてごめんなさいね）

というわけで、彼女の人となりなどはまだキャッチアップできてないんだけど
上の記事が目に飛び込んだ瞬間、彼女のことは認識したわよ

だって、忘れるわけがないでしょ
彼女の存在

そんな彼女に今回東京で開催されるA Shaded View On Fashion Filmのオープニング
でお会いできて感激よ！

写真をみて分かると思うけど、スタイルを持つということは
写真におさめてもブレない、ボケないことよ

写真の技術を言ってるんじゃないわよ
彼女の隣の女、ブレまくりよね（まあ、これが私だけど）
ぶっちゃけ、全く印象に残らないわよね

でもダイアン様は、今これを読んでるあなたの脳裏にしっかりと焼き付いたでしょ
忘れないでしょ

それよ！
スタイルを持つということは

どんな瞬間も、他にまぎれることのない圧倒的な存在感を誇り
自分自身のビジュアル、存在を他人の脳裏にくっきり、はっきり焼き付けること

それが生まれ持った美貌でできる人もいれば
彼女みたいに一貫した変わらないファッションを装い通すこと
（もちろん普通の地味なファッションじゃだめよ）
スタイルを持つ方法は色々とあるのよ

一貫させることは簡単なことじゃないのよ
ブレることなく、自分自身のキャラクターロールを完全に決めることよ
普通の人間はその時々、その日、その日で気分が変わるからね
その上、誰もが振り返るスタイルなんて自分に自信がない日はできないでしょ
そうやってコロコロ変わるのよ

もちろん彼女の場合はカラフルな長い人生の経験を集めた上で
行き着いたスタイルが真っ黒、未亡人のようなスタイルということなんだけど
自分自身で生きる事への覚悟が違うのよね

まあまだまだ若い、自分探しをしたこともない、経験も自信もない
あなたには難しいことよね

それこそまだ色々と楽しみたいんでしょうし

でもいつかスタイルを持ちたいと思うなら
