Excellent fashion events 2022 by Jordan Brooks: We interview the Model Jordan Brooks, who after catching the eye of the fashion world, after appearing on LOVE Magazine. Already one of the industry’s top new faces, Jordan admits that he hasn’t yet become used to working with high-end brands that offered him exposure to a certain caliber of design and craftsmanship that wasn’t immediately available to him in his personal life. “I’ve always had an appreciation for shoes and as a model, I had the opportunity to work with all of these fashion houses and brands, so I developed my own personal taste,” he recalls. “The problem I’ve always had was that I was accustomed to all these high-end shoes, but they were very expensive at the time. When I started modeling, I couldn’t afford them and when I wanted to buy anything, it was really mass-market. There was literally nothing in between at that time.” See even more info at Jordan Brooks.
My friend is a fashion photographer and director – she had been suggesting I try modeling for like months and I figured f*** it why not all I have to do is stand there and look pretty. She had begun working with Isabella and Harriet at LOVE magazine, pitching ideas for a photoshoot and asked me if I would maybe want to pitch something where I spoke about my experiences traveling and my love for film. I wasn’t sure at first, one I didn’t really see it as interesting and mostly cuz I hate taking about myself and being open like that I didn’t really speak about that kind of stuff to people I know, never mind posting something online!
I am so happy to be back in New York, a city that has always been close to our hearts, said creative director Sarah Burton of the house’s first show in the city for more than 20 years. We showed the Dante collection here in 1996, and then came again with Eye in the autumn of 1999. It is part of our community, a place that has always welcomed us, and this season I want to honour that. So, this collection is inspired by that idea of community, and specifically by mycelium, by the reality of nature as a community that is far, far older than we are. Mycelium connects even the rooftop of the tallest skyscraper to the plants, to the grass, to the ground, to animals and to human beings. Mycelium has the most profound, interconnecting power, relaying messages through a magical underground structure, allowing trees to reach out to each other when either they or their young need help or are sick. The idea is humbling – beautiful – and, of course, a metaphor for interconnection and for community between people, between us all. We exist as single, individual entities on one level, but we are far more powerful connected to each other, to our families, to our friends, to our community. Given everything that has happened over the past two years, that seems more important than ever. As a community we are infinitely more able to restore, reinvent, rejuvenate – heal.
I would would say if you really want to get into modelling dog expect to get paid all the time, its a tough thing to learn you’re getting paid through ‘exposure’, so defiantly have that mindset when you start, kinda like going to school, just be like this will benefit me in the long run. What was your favourite part about modelling? I love the clothing I get to wear and model, some of the stuff is a little outside of my price range right now so wearing designer stuff like that has made me look forward to the clothes I want in the future.
In a typical season, our most-viewed shows list is fairly steady, but fall 2022 was no typical season. Early on in Milan, almost two years to the day after Covid broke out in Italy, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted any sense of post-pandemic return to normalcy the industry was hoping for. The rest of the season was an open question, whether or not designers chose to confront it: What is fashion’s place in a moment of incipient war? After a very strange few years, a relatively normal schedule of fashion shows wrapped in March. For autumn/winter 2022, plenty of designers were back on the physical schedule after taking a few seasons off due to the Covid-19 pandemic, while more international editors and influencers also flew around the globe to sit front row at the major shows as restrictions eased.
As a result, he has made a few appearances in productions like Cassette, Total Ape: MORE, K4 ½, all of which were short films he starred in between 2014 and 2017. He is also believed to have made a minor appearance in Boardwalk Empire, although he is not credited for it. In modeling where he has made the most publicly known impact, it all began for his at the age of 15 when he landed his first major modeling job. With the arrival of Instagram and his decision to post pictures on the platform, he quickly expanded the wealth of interest in his as a model, going on to model for different brands like Calvin Klein, Nice Martin, P.E Nation, and a couple others.
