If anyone should have a fashion blog, Princess Julia should. She knows her fashion, how to use it to make a name, how it can change the way you think, and how to read people’s style. Julia has been cool since the early eighties, when having an extreme look was an underground thing. Like her friend Boy George she re-invented herself as a handbag house DJ in the nineties, and again more recently by publishing music-zine the P.i.X with Hanna Hanra for the last three years.

Princess Julia on Judy Blame

The ingenuity of accessories of designer Mr Judy Blame never ceases to amaze me. Big names like Dior and slightly nutty Japanese label Comme Des Garcons hire Blame when things get stale. See, here he is at Noki’s birthday party wearing a shit necklace of his own invention, but you know it’s the joke poo variety. “Fashionistas hate it,” he tells me, “But it’s so punk rock, people like you love it!” Well it is quite a daring piece, it even comes with flies.
