MOD JAPAN

Happy Saturday, Spy Vibers! My students arrived back from summer holidays this week and we're already busy with the start of a new school year. One of the highlights from the week was a community viewing of a new documentary called Screenagers, which looks at the changing role and effects of technology on relationships, health, and the brain. Like many issues, our discussions came down to the notion of balance. Check the film out if you get a chance. Today I wanted to share these great catalog pages from 1960s Japan, where it appears young Mods could walk in the footsteps of Pierre Cardin. Which outfit would you choose? By the way, I'm still going through the photographs from my summer travels in the UK. There is a lot to edit. Just to give you an idea: during my stay in Portmeirion, for example, I took almost 1,000 images! I will start sharing some of the gems soon. Have a great weekend!
