Bliss is obliged by a contract to subtly or directly mention that he has a life partner in every video so that people will stop hitting on him in the comments
yet the last video zoomed in practically every time he stretched his arms and showed a little chest hair in between the buttons. like, am i not supposed to respond to that?
I think people miss gatekeeping because fashion is like music where everyone weighs in on it and have zero education. So when fashion lovers feel like their favorite designer is bending to the will of people on twitter that just wanna go viral for hating, it’s kinda frustrating

I worked at ELLE for almost 9 years (I started as an intern, got a job as a Chief Editor`s assistant and Fashion Stylist then got promoted to Executive Editor) and it took me about 7 years of working for FREE, yes most of my writing and styling gigs ended up being unpaid because no one (in my country) really values these professions. I recently quit because I couldn`t sustain myself anymore with the insultingly low income I got being an Editor at different 3 magazines. Just a heads-up on the reality of the "glamorous" fashion world.
Absolutely correct - I still work as a freelance writer/editor here and there next to my full time marketing career (in luxury fashion), because it's honestly entirely unsustainable. The truth is most of the industry (like all of the arts) is populated with people who have the privilege not to worry about rent, savings, pensions and proper compensation. I do see some bright sides around breaking into the industry via social media that might be able to diversify/democratise the space but even then, its not going to change much. Have also experienced so much backstabbing and shady behaviour in the industry that it's truly not for the faint of heart.
You make me feel so seen, honestly. As someone who is young and looking to get into fashion you answer so many of my questions in your videos. If I ever become a famous designer I’m telling everyone it was Because of you!❤
Something interesting you made me think about in fashion when you talked about not having any desire to design clothes: Fashion is a rare art-form where the consumer exercises their creativity when they consume. Unlike music or books or movies, when you buy a wonderful garment, you naturally express yourself creatively by how you pair it with outfits and incorporate it into your life. There really isn't the same kind of gap for someone who loves fashion to need to create whole garments to feel creatively engaged in the same way I see a lot of people who love music feel the push to make their own music or play an instrument or how people who love to read often are compelled to write. Just a thought.
Its going to sound dumb, but in an anime I saw recently, the main character basically said, "I can't teach somebody, who's not already doing." Its the truth.
I feel compelled to share: so I started sewing so my family and I could have clothes made from better fibers than what we could find affordably in stores. But my goal is to create a wardrobe of clothes that are slightly elevated compared to my usual athletic leisure wardrobe of shorts and tees. So now I have cotton and linen and cotton/linen dresses that are comfortable for daily wear, look great layered up and I look and feel 100% better- not to mention it’s so much easier to regulate temperature than anything I could buy in the store. Everyone always asks if sewing your own clothes is less expensive…. No, not if you are buying $5 tees from Walmart. But yes! If you want something better. So worth it imo. Thanks for letting me share, love you and Dani so much!
Agreed. I started sewing again, for similar reasons also I just can’t find clothing that fits. But if I have to say to another person, yes I designed and made this shirt. No I have zero desire to turn my hobby into a business. I just like doing this thing.
You often cover the topic of getting into the industry, but you never working in the artisanal side of it (pattern cutting, making embroidery etc). It would be really interesting to hear your take on that too
Hello Bliss, I ran into you and Danielle last Thursday in Paris and just wanted to tell you how stunned I was and still am. I love the content, hard work and passion you put into the channel and everything that surrounds it and feel honored to be apart of this journey. It was so nice meeting you two and hopefully not for the last time, I wish you all the best!! Greetings from Germany
Tbh, about the "having a big audience before making clothing" thing, my first clothing item for another person was a wedding dress I threw together when her og dress idea didn't work. Do I haaaate how it looks, because it isnt pressed, its got some pulling and the darts are a bit wonky, completely unhemmed and *wrinkly* because I finished it 2 hours before the ceremony started? Absolutely. This was meant to be seen by less than 200 people. And you know what? I got nearly every single person there come up to me like "did you really make that dress???? Its GORGEOUS!" And now its a little footnote in my portfolia like "hey, this was my first free draft, first garment ever, and this was the reception. I make a lot of my own clothing, and everyone who compliments any given outfit gets a "oh, thank you! I made it" and that's the same idea. My long winded, meandering point being that you don't need an audience. Youll find one after the clothes are made and out in the world.
We live in a society where we always think about monetizing our hobbies and when a lot of us get into fashion or sewing we think we should become a part of the industry, but not everyone is willing to do the work, and the barrier to enter is needed to teach us were we stand in reality and it protects them from tourists,,,,,,,,,, like me lol...
Seeing your house and the little things around like the table, the furniture and stuff makes me feel like it's one of the reasons why you appreciate art and fashion today. And you are the reason I got into fashion, so thank you Bliss!
Great topic and responses Bliss! As a man in his Mid 50's I will dare share that although there is nothing wrong if one chooses to go the hardway in anything in Life the reality is that many things require money. So as Bliss pointed out in this video, if you got to drive a truck and make some money to build on the funds go do it. Look at it this way, work to earn in order to do outside of work what you love!
Linen is king when it comes to on skin clothing. I work with linen so much that when I have to look at cotton fabric I'm almost instantly bored to tears.
Oh my god that table is beautiful and if you’re have enough time and resources id recommend topping it with resin so you still have the look but also a durable and flat surface!!
Just a merch is good enough for a journalist. Considering Bliss is a fashion-specific journalist/critic, I am sure this merch will be 200% higher in all qualities than from any other UA-cam channel.
appreciate these videos dawg, not a frequent viewer but reocurring ad checking up on you every season is like meeting a friend you do one thing with- love!
Hey Bliss! Have you ever thought of shooting a video essay on vintage fashion and vintage fashion businesses/brands? It's something I'm super interested in. I'd love to hear what you have to say about the research you gather and your opinions overall.
Regarding the discussion at 9:50 I would be interested in your opinion about "influencer brands" like Daniel Simmons for example. Meaning new brands that are financially sustainable due to the fanbase but are still seeing themselves as more than merchandise but a legit brand that non fans could buy from.
would love to know your thoughts on the rising second hand/ Upcycling market. Europe is enforcing legislation towards the industry to become more sustainable yet the U.S. isn't starting anything as of yet. Not to mention AI slowly being implemented within the sustainable sector as well, this is a long ended question but I'm an upcycling designer and am curious to know what direction the U.S. fashion industry is heading regarding this like it just feels like why take the traditional path to enter the industry when so much is changing?
Love you, love the suit.....I love Italian linen the best. Ricks advice to me was learn to draft, then learn to sew, then work work work ..(and then wait for a mentor) 😅 worked for me . But I have retired due to illness. 😔. 💋 to Daniel. (sp?)
A lot of truth, in this video. It's not surprising, as the "gatekeepers", the big icons, and not known to be intellectuals. It is in their interest to keep you out. Of course, you must be self financing.
Bliss once made a passing reference to something along the lines of 'red has been used as a neutral' I've watched about 8 full videos in search of it (excluding the natural derailment by the Margiela series). I'm trying to explain to my friend my thoughts on clothing and that statement about red remained in my mind long after watching the piece. I want to remember the context in it as I write my thoughts. Any help is appreciated. If a reward is desired, I promise 2 detailed comments on videos of your choice on this channel. (Who doesn't want words of a rando on the internet?)
Bliss what do you think about going to fashion school?? I love what I’ve learned and I’m really grateful but as time has passed, I just hate making clothes as they want and you know, just frustrated that I can’t do my things how I want them to be. So now I’m in this dilema of getting out and explore and really knock doors as you are saying in the video, and get involved in the industry but at the same time continue to create and make clothes, learn jewelry and other things I want to explore. The question is, should I do that and leave school although I graduate in 1 year and a half? What you think?
It always makes me a bit sad to see people earning a lot of money with no effort and sense. Especially when there are people who would use that money for bringing knowledge to the others...
are you studying kung fu ha ha? (referring to the posing near the end) well I'm happy you feel you found a job you like. I'd also say give yourself freedom, if you ever find you don't like the job as well remember you have the option to change. i think now i try to often qualify statements with "now", like I might say "I don't like that movie now but i might in the future, it might grow on me"
one way to break into fashion first study fashion in one of those famous fashion schools then make a collection apply for Hyeres fashion festival and make sure you win :))
Bliss, I must admit, I’m not subscribed to your patreon, but in that clip of you showing off your dickies pants I saw your beautiful Jean Prouve chair and I would love to know the story of how you got it and if you have other staple pieces of design like that chair.
Honestly, that was thanks to Daniella. She found it on fb marketplace for an absolute steal, brand new. We drove 4 hours to go get it. I had never seen one before, and had to trust her about whether or not it would be worth it. I’m very very, very glad I trusted her. If we ever get into a pinch financially, that’s the first thing we sell 😂
Bro please give us a detailed video on Karu research .Even after being from INDIA, there's a very little of what we know about the brand and the way you bridge the gap between audience love for the brand and the creative directors work and vision, it's the fuckin BESTTTT. IT WOULD BE A HUGE DEAL FROM YOUR SIDE IF YOU CAN SHED SOME LIGHT PN THE MYSTERIOUS INDIAN ARTISAN - KARTIK
What can you say about the youtube fashion influencers that turned into having their own clothing brands. And if you follow or aware of this scene which ones if you have any can you recommend your viewers.
Remember back to even 1992 (some of us actually can lol) think about how hard it would have been to break into the industry then.. I pick 1992 because many brands were experiencing their zenith right then. Save for someone like Stella McCartney (no prizes for guessing where her seed money came from??) Even Alexander McQueen wasnt exactly poor, as he makes out and already had connections, you werent coming in unless you had money or had been a bitch basically for bigwigs in the industry for years like Gaultier or Lagerfeld (okayy, we'll let you try that damn collection you keep rabbiting on about just shut up already) It's not just the look of fashion that is great, it's the fit and quality that make people spend $4000 on a Valentino suit, vs a $40 one from Target. I'm oversimplifying here, but there is good and bad about less barriers and gatekeeping - now everyone is trying it, but people who think they can get paid $250k a year to hang out and occassionally get coffee and croissants for Pierpaolo at Val have got another thing coming.
Fashion people are usually victioms of their own hype. Thats the whole problem. Fashion industry, the cultural thing is wholly different from act of selling and producing clothes. Just to think. Youngest self made billionaire in the world is founder of a clothing brand and obviously he is not a fashion designer and didnt come through the system. Problem is you go to these showrooms where you rub shoulders with insiders and select fashion folks. You want to convice other poor people who have the same passion about originality and likability of your product while you are left at the mercy of a potential customer instead of putting customer at the fore front. There are gazzilion people who made huge amounts of money by selling clothes in the past 10 years they just dont seek approval of other fashion folks as their primal motivator and thats the whole difference. Seriously, thats all it is.
All in all, instead of Paris go to Guangzhou. Learn clo3d instead of taking up fashion design school. You ll be ahead of most folks that want to climb through the system.
I think gatekeeping is underrated! When the audience gets too muddy & too oversaturated with people who want to "look the part" rather than "BE" the part you get things like people who don't even shop at Balenciaga or know who "Demna" is have a say in canceling it while they type on their iPhone that was made by an African slave, BUT iPhone's aren't as convenient to cancel since everyone has one, but not everyone has Balenci so that one is ok to cancel lmao!. Kering has changed their whole approach with monitoring Balenciaga (to an extent that's great) off the opinions of people who aren't even their audience. With the current version of capitalism, of course, gatekeeping is more challenging, but I exercise it in ways of not telling people whose intentions I do not trust my favorite places I go eat at to avoid things changing due to people who are there for the grem & not because they genuinely enjoy the place. Thanks for reading if you got this far
Love you both and all the hard work you do. I know Daniella is shy but can we quickly meet her sometime? It’s kinda weird to hear her voice and hear about her and not see her. Just an introduction would be really appreciated.
every video i see, i just want to push the back sofa a bit to the left. i know your father works in decor. right now, the right arm clashes with the staircase. if we push it to the left, that won't happen, and the back of the sofa will make a beautiful harmonious curve with the stairs. at the same time, there might be too much negative space in the right. if i ever come to america, i'll take a flight anywhere just to push the sofa a bit to one side, a bit to the other.
i had never noticed the toned-down almodóvar color scheme of your house. the reds add lots of luxury to the set, make you more credible as a fashion specialist.
and what about your look? every fashion editor has THE LOOK. menkes, vreelan, even vanessa friedman. what's it gonna be? can you even do it? you're a straigh man, poor thing.
Attention To This Important Announcement: Tabi Boots are now tacky. they were supposed to come from this mysterious brand, but the brand put the style onto everything and produced it to death. there are probably tabi havaianas at this point. they are part of a radical look. people use it as a "i'm kind of modern". owens boots or nothing.
1st of all i think you are great at what you do, and thank you for giving your all to this channel, it shows. BUT can you please please please take it down a notch or 20, you are already so knowledgeable, and the things you say are so interesting, if you could simply drop this naive and youthful overtly energeting tone??????? it is so annoying that i can't fisnish your videos, even though i want to. Time to grow into the shoes you were clearly made for.
first, congratulations on the aptitude of your youtube name. the first part. second, i don't agree, and if i did i would never say it. should we, in this world, ask people to be less happy?
there's this guy @imdanielsimmons who capitalized on the fact that he's australian, super gostoso, and has an elevated minimal house, got followers, released a brand recently and it appears to be going well. if you're hot, freudian capitalism says you deserve money. go ahead, take it, start your brand. it's the rick owens thing: go to the gym, get rid of all your furniture, buy something black, become one of the most acclaimed contemporary fashion designers.
sadly, he has a togo couch, and i have to break it to him that those were super in fashion 3 year ago, bu no'mo' and i just just cringe at such a banal taste everytime i see it.
Bliss is obliged by a contract to subtly or directly mention that he has a life partner in every video so that people will stop hitting on him in the comments
True
Tone and content have subtly changed also. Religious references at one point....
yet the last video zoomed in practically every time he stretched his arms and showed a little chest hair in between the buttons. like, am i not supposed to respond to that?
Yeah, pretty sure Daniela is just more than happy to show off her most cherished accessory. @@EmmisonMike

Wow thank you so much! You should have come up to say hi! We love meeting everyone 🦾
@@BlissFoster i did, but just briefly in the area of the Amiri show :)
Tbh, about the "having a big audience before making clothing" thing, my first clothing item for another person was a wedding dress I threw together when her og dress idea didn't work.
Do I haaaate how it looks, because it isnt pressed, its got some pulling and the darts are a bit wonky, completely unhemmed and *wrinkly* because I finished it 2 hours before the ceremony started?
Absolutely.
This was meant to be seen by less than 200 people.
And you know what? I got nearly every single person there come up to me like "did you really make that dress???? Its GORGEOUS!"

I'm an 18 year old and i have a dream of becoming a fashion designer I'm nowhere near my goal but all i know its my purpose in life, i will make it.
The issue some have when things become popular is that the "artist" stops pushing the boat. Which is their right to do obviously but still
Try to leave the discussion part that u cut out, you are, more than probably, a very interesting couple to hear talking more often
Love and heartfelt gracious for your work
I’ve literally never not made it to the end of a bliss video I don’t understand how people half watch them
Great video topic
Could you do a video on materialist values and the fashion industry?
we’re always looking for suggestions! Quick question! Do you mean materialism as in the philosophy term or in the “I like shopping ✌️” type way?
As an architect I appreciated the counter top talk. 😂
Very impractical but def aesthetic. Mimics a lot of fashion choices. 😂
"fashion design" usually has so much fashion and so little design
A lot of truth, in this video. It's not surprising, as the "gatekeepers", the big icons, and not known to be intellectuals. It is in their interest to keep you out. Of course, you must be self financing.

That sounds like something I would have said during a question video. I remember saying it, but I don’t remember when, unfortunately. 😔
I don't remember the name of the video, but I do remember it was said in reference to the "Red Octobers" by Kanye.

Hi Bliss, enjoyed the video very much, can you tell me the spelling for the name of the jacket you bought, zeniah ? Szenia ? Never heard of this brand

Even Alexander McQueen wasnt exactly poor, as he makes out and already had connections, you werent coming in unless you had money or had been a bitch basically for bigwigs in the industry for years like Gaultier or Lagerfeld (okayy, we'll let you try that damn collection you keep rabbiting on about just shut up already) It's not just the look of fashion that is great, it's the fit and quality that make people spend $4000 on a Valentino suit, vs a $40 one from Target. I'm oversimplifying here, but there is good and bad about less barriers and gatekeeping - now everyone is trying it, but people who think they can get paid $250k a year to hang out and occassionally get coffee and croissants for Pierpaolo at Val have got another thing coming.

Fashion people are usually victioms of their own hype. Thats the whole problem. Fashion industry, the cultural thing is wholly different from act of selling and producing clothes. Just to think. Youngest self made billionaire in the world is founder of a clothing brand and obviously he is not a fashion designer and didnt come through the system. Problem is you go to these showrooms where you rub shoulders with insiders and select fashion folks. You want to convice other poor people who have the same passion about originality and likability of your product while you are left at the mercy of a potential customer instead of putting customer at the fore front. There are gazzilion people who made huge amounts of money by selling clothes in the past 10 years they just dont seek approval of other fashion folks as their primal motivator and thats the whole difference. Seriously, thats all it is.
All in all, instead of Paris go to Guangzhou. Learn clo3d instead of taking up fashion design school. You ll be ahead of most folks that want to climb through the system.
I wanted to discuss Martin (margiela) at a deeper level with him ...how?
7 min in and I can’t get over how well you coined the Rick conundrum 😂😂😂
Your look in this video is just immaculate
lol... the Rick O speech! 😆
Would you ever do a video rating viewers outfits? I think it’d be really entertaining to see your perspective on what people put together
Yoo are you ever going to review Pharrell LV ? Or is it that bad ? Lol
the less we know the better.
respect franalations
Hello Bliss
How can I get in touch with you? Maybe we can give you a hand while you are in Paris from Von Dutch Paris.
What’s going to happen to fashion when Anna dies? There goes the entire industry
Wait why would that kill off the whole industry? 🤔
But where is Edward Cuming?
Bro, you are too cool. Hoping you Good luck on UA-cam.
I appreciate that! 💫💫
I think gatekeeping is underrated!
When the audience gets too muddy & too oversaturated with people who want to "look the part" rather than "BE" the part you get things like people who don't even shop at Balenciaga or know who "Demna" is have a say in canceling it while they type on their iPhone that was made by an African slave, BUT iPhone's aren't as convenient to cancel since everyone has one, but not everyone has Balenci so that one is ok to cancel lmao!. Kering has changed their whole approach with monitoring Balenciaga (to an extent that's great) off the opinions of people who aren't even their audience. With the current version of capitalism, of course, gatekeeping is more challenging, but I exercise it in ways of not telling people whose intentions I do not trust my favorite places I go eat at to avoid things changing due to people who are there for the grem & not because they genuinely enjoy the place.
Thanks for reading if you got this far

I’m looking for an internship in fashion in Paris and it’s near impossible. Help!!!
based
Sew cool.
❤
Love you both and all the hard work you do. I know Daniella is shy but can we quickly meet her sometime? It’s kinda weird to hear her voice and hear about her and not see her. Just an introduction would be really appreciated.
every video i see, i just want to push the back sofa a bit to the left. i know your father works in decor. right now, the right arm clashes with the staircase. if we push it to the left, that won't happen, and the back of the sofa will make a beautiful harmonious curve with the stairs. at the same time, there might be too much negative space in the right. if i ever come to america, i'll take a flight anywhere just to push the sofa a bit to one side, a bit to the other.
i had never noticed the toned-down almodóvar color scheme of your house. the reds add lots of luxury to the set, make you more credible as a fashion specialist.
cif for the counter top.
and what about your look? every fashion editor has THE LOOK. menkes, vreelan, even vanessa friedman. what's it gonna be? can you even do it? you're a straigh man, poor thing.
won't the beanies damage your hair and contribute to hair loss? worried.
HOES DONT PICK ME AT PARTIES
I would shit myself if you dropped merch 😃
Attention To This Important Announcement: Tabi Boots are now tacky. they were supposed to come from this mysterious brand, but the brand put the style onto everything and produced it to death. there are probably tabi havaianas at this point. they are part of a radical look. people use it as a "i'm kind of modern". owens boots or nothing.
1st of all i think you are great at what you do, and thank you for giving your all to this channel, it shows. BUT can you please please please take it down a notch or 20, you are already so knowledgeable, and the things you say are so interesting, if you could simply drop this naive and youthful overtly energeting tone??????? it is so annoying that i can't fisnish your videos, even though i want to. Time to grow into the shoes you were clearly made for.
Ahhh I can’t help you with that, homie. This is who I am 💫💫
first, congratulations on the aptitude of your youtube name. the first part. second, i don't agree, and if i did i would never say it. should we, in this world, ask people to be less happy?
there's this guy @imdanielsimmons who capitalized on the fact that he's australian, super gostoso, and has an elevated minimal house, got followers, released a brand recently and it appears to be going well. if you're hot, freudian capitalism says you deserve money. go ahead, take it, start your brand. it's the rick owens thing: go to the gym, get rid of all your furniture, buy something black, become one of the most acclaimed contemporary fashion designers.
sadly, he has a togo couch, and i have to break it to him that those were super in fashion 3 year ago, bu no'mo' and i just just cringe at such a banal taste everytime i see it.
I was this close 🤏🏾 To get an internship in Chanel but I didn’t… I hope this video will help.
❤❤❤
