Fall 2008 - myspace.com as editorial link

By Veronica Viljoen

The last few months have been extremely fun and intriquing for me as I have explored the creative options that http://www.myspace.com/ has to offer. I'm not quite sure why I started to create a page on the site, but I now have one that I use to transfer information and images that pertain to the edgy world of fashion and artistic ideas.

London Fashion Week Fall 2008, Jean Paul Gaultier's Fall 2008 Collection images, Chanel and Dior's 2008 marketing photos are some of the colorful storyboards I have been able to view just with the click of the mouse via my "myspace" page. With Fall 2008 about to happen in Los Angeles in less than a week, I'll be using my "myspace" page to communicate my reviews on those collections.

Close on the heels of Los Angeles, I'll then use the same page to post the best of South Africa's premier fashion event, Sanlam SA Fashion Week's Fall 2008 Collections. I have followed South Africa's fashion industry over the years and this avenue will allow me to share with fashion industry players arond the globe the best in fashion design from my homeland.
