When he realized the average French Parisian don’t give a damn about his high-level, high-pressured haute designer status, they burst his designer bubble, sending him and his career crashing onto Earth.</p><p>Coming back from the ground up, John Galliano is coming back as Maison Marigela, sprinkling his theatrical magic dust onto the runway.</p><p>His self-destructive documentary, “John Galliano, High and Low,” traces his antisemitic Catholic roots while his extreme low of alcoholism followed by his extreme highs in working out, to detox the drugs and alcohol.</p><p>It also shows you, what it means to be a designer of today.</p><p>What apprising designers really want to be, is be a Creative Designer.</p><p>What most folks call a design house, is really brands.</p><p>As Dior’s Creative Director, John isn’t afraid to say, he was in charge of two design houses with their own four lines of haute couture, contemporary ready to wear street/urban wear, accessories, makeup and skincare. Times two, John was designing 8 lines every year, non-stop.</p><p>There were no vacations, just research trips to create fresh fashion trends.</p><p>In-between, he had to do party and press, media blitzes.</p><p>No rest for the weary, no personal life, all that dedication and hard work accumulated into episodes of drugged and drunken nervous breakdowns.</p><p>Even his right-man committed suicide due to the responsibilities and demands.</p><p>When you hit rock bottom, your true friends come to your rescue.</p><p>Ironically, it was the predominantly Jewish fashion that came to John’s rescue. They owed up to saying the fashion industry that they’re part of and own and run, is reason why John had that infamous nervous breakdown.</p><p>After leaving Paris and resetting on a farm, John Galliano recovered enough to make a comeback as Maison Maricela’s Creative Director. </p><p>Of course, he’s now a different person. No longer hogging the spotlight as celebrity designer, he still sprinkle his theatrical magic dust on another genre-busting runway show but this exhausted bad boy hid behind the curtains.</p><p>In a “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris,” 1950’s period fashion piece, a young smart fashion executive said why don’t Dior expand into accessories of purses, shoes, and makeup, lipstick and powdered foundation mirror compact for the average woman to have touches of haute couture?</p><p>That idea have proven to be any fashion brand’s bloodline, the foundation holding the lofty ceiling of haute couture.</p><p>John Galliano was the real life, flesh and blood of that, burning out on non-stop treadmill of designing 8 lines of clothes, accessories and the beauty lines.</p><p>Those demands killed Alexander McQueen but John Galliano survived it.</p><p>Renewed and wiser.</p>thearrivistehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17574497886466420455noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444787931661864263.post-29965163468691511422024-03-12T14:21:00.000-07:002024-03-12T14:21:59.587-07:00Oscar Beauty, 2 Days of Makeup & 3 Months of Skincare.<p> By Laura Medina</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FMKbnxlgMXI" width="320" youtube-src-id="FMKbnxlgMXI"></iframe></div><br /><p>After 23 years learning and living then the next 16 years reporting and covering, this scribe discover and cherish time-honored Hollywood tradition, such as Oscar Week!

Growing up, she’s always a fan of Eigthies and Ninties erotic thrillers. But it’s 2024, with exploding Hispanic market, she thought it would it be nice to have a Latin spin on a love triangle and desire. She did it with “Demise.”</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FdOVw-uoU0Q" width="320" youtube-src-id="FdOVw-uoU0Q"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;">Good looks and sensuality runs in the Mendez family. Eva Mendez’ half-brother, Carlo Mendez is an actor in his own right and long, established career. Yes, he plays the cliche hot Latin lover, but in today’s “Demise,” he’s portrayed as a player who’s served with karma, both good and bad. His character, Caleb, undergoes a real character journey riding life’s rollercoaster.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e5Kp0PP_2G4" width="320" youtube-src-id="e5Kp0PP_2G4"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;">“Demise” is a contemporary erotic thriller set in present day with real, current, and common problems that majority of people deal with everyday, infertility affecting infidelity, revenge while rebounding, and desire versus jealousy. Liz Fenning’s “Celine” is the woman done dirty by life, that this scribe does feel empathy for. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N4a-53M9z_g" width="320" youtube-src-id="N4a-53M9z_g"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;">In today’s life, every woman needs an objective gay buddy who sees it for what it is, to tell her what it is. This is where a strong supporting character comes, “Miguel” played by Morris Jude Martinez. Being supporting to be supportive, never means being minor. </p><p style="text-align: left;">Come February 27th, you can devour this sexy, erotic eye candy, “Demise” on Apple TV, so you can have something naughty while munching on your chocolate bonbons, French macarons, candy truffles, and toffees. “Demise” is naughty, sexy treat.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>thearrivistehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17574497886466420455noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444787931661864263.post-70567099401249501522024-02-19T10:12:00.000-08:002024-02-19T10:12:43.956-08:00Fun Market Research is Burger King’s Carnival Pop-up.<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dO9087bovEk" width="320" youtube-src-id="dO9087bovEk"></iframe></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qJQ_k73ZNxY" width="320" youtube-src-id="qJQ_k73ZNxY"></iframe></div><br /> By Laura Medina<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sbKaDslY3l8" width="320" youtube-src-id="sbKaDslY3l8"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/v1ZAh3e9jc8" width="320" youtube-src-id="v1ZAh3e9jc8"></iframe></div><br /><div>In quest for the next fast food hit, in addition to mass question to the mass public in an advertising campaign asking people in creating the next, great Whooper, lucky Los Angelenos were treated to a Burger King pop-up carnival on the massive Santa Monica Pier.</div><div><br /></div><div>Amongst the fun and games, with swag, Burger King will discover the next, new Whooper.</div><div><br /></div><div>In order to get their free Whooper, there are three menus, Santa Monica Whooper, Impossible Burger, and Customized Whooper.
