Its crazy how the makers of lux and drama eventually can charge people so much that they toss those feelings out the window wearing sweats and living the simple life. Fashion hurts my brain. |

It’s simple. Rick is a primarily a marketer. Certainly as much as he is a good designer he is a much better marketer. Not advertising is marketing. Not changing his own look is marketing. Spinning contrived explanations for his inspiration is marketing.
He is,rather, precisely what he is afraid the world would perceive him to be... a business man. An artist, in the authentic sense of the word, he is not.
A suggestion for the name of the inevitably forthcoming fragrance - Snake Oil - to be sold exclusively out of the back of a run-down 70’s van that travels from city to city, blasting metal rock, spewing black smoke and selling the stuff for too much money.
For me it seems he’s just about selling with the careful spin of not wanting to get caught selling.
I’m not buying it. |

I admire his view on this, if he was to push more he would make heaps more money but he would lose the identity of his work. |

His daily outfit sounds like something a complete bum would wear. how can he do that? does he think that he has raised above the need to dress smart? |
