.
.
similarity is characteristic of everything that is.
everything that is is similar.
each of us is similar to someone else.
don't be solitary, be similar.
a uniform is the image of your similarity.
your 'i' becomes the image of the uniform.
others are not other if you are the same.
similarity guarantees cleaniness.
cleaniness is the new love.
love derives from similarity.
white is the colour of love pure and similar.
white is beautiful.
beauty is fleeting.
love is perishable.
white is as fleeting and perishable as beauty and love.
and fades to grey.
your life is short and fades to grey.
your life is like the colour white - beautiful,
perishable and doomed to fade.
use it and throw it away.


UEG's manifesto

'usa e getta' in italian means 'to use and throw away'


i'm really drawn to their concept of season-less clothing. . .

i love the beading on these pants
& the batik-like digital printing on most of the other pieces


the full length show is a must-see !
i don't know how the girls stayed vertical in those shoes !
& i'm loving the music


i know, i'm a bit late, & most of you have probably seen the collection. . .
