Clark & Co., LLC uses Midjourney, and I can tell you, it’s frustrating. The technology is amazing, but it could be so much more!

My favorite response is Aaron Draplin’s! Holly met Aaron a few years back, and she found him to be an utter delight, such an authentic old soul.

Our largest take away from this article is that there’s still room for AI to improve a creative’s efficiency, but that a creative still has a role to play in directing the outcome of the product. That is, if you in fact, you want the outcome to be authentic.

A dream harvester? An end to tedium? Nothing at all? Brian Collins, Jessica Walsh, Forest Young, Pum Lefebure, Giorgia Lupi, and others weigh in.

Iris Apfel was, in and of herself, a work of art. RIP, fearless one.

The New York society figure, former interior designer and self-proclaimed “geriatric starlet” made dressing a delight.

RIP, Vivienne.

Vivienne Westwood, a hero of mine, has died. Amanda and I named our first daughter Vivienne largely inspired by Westwood and her many creative evolutions and activism. I discovered Vivienne Westwood through her fashion for the S*x Pistols. I vividly remember the first time my friend John Reigart put Never Mind the Bo****ks Here’s the S*x Pistols on the turntable. My arm hairs stood up the moment I heard the album opener, “Holidays in the Sun.” The S*x Pistols made a perfect debut album, and they changed my life by introducing me to the ways music and its culture could impact society. The S*x Pistols created an incredible cultural upheaval but they did it with the help of several talented people: A large portion of the credit should go to Vivienne Westwood for creating the fashion look of punk. However, Westwood was creatively restless and notoriously anti-orthodoxy, so she evolved quickly from punk despite being one of its progenitors. Westwood’s fashion collections remained daring and relevant for over 40 years. I met her a couple of times and had a few drinks with her in 2007 after visiting her studio. We sat outside so she could smoke and despite the fact that it was freezing out, she was warm and articulated her philosophies with wit, attitude, and precision. She also still possessed revolutionary optimism while acknowledging existential threats like climate change. It was the exact experience I was hoping for! Thanks for all the inspiration Vivienne!

I loved being surprised by someone’s pivot, don’t you?
