john luke Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-44294296 Obituary: Pierre Cardin IMAGE COPYRIGHTFRANCOIS GUILLOT Fashion designer Pierre Cardin was a supreme innovator - for 70 years, he ripped up convention and captured the zeitgeist. His thirst for the new and surprising was never satisfied. He will be remembered for his futuristic designs - some were inspired by the space age, some were even impossible to wear. He carved his own way through the fashion industry. Parisian haute couture had always been exclusive - its high priests believed it should be high-end, individually tailored and eye-wateringly expensive. Cardin broke the mould. He launched "ready-to-wear" collections, bringing high fashion to the middle classes. His designer peers were aghast, and threw him out of their club. In the 1950s, men wore traditional suits which made the young look like their fathers. Cardin threw out the boxy jackets and stiff white shirts, creating a revolutionary look for a new, progressive generation. Gone were the bulky details; collars, lapels, tails and cuffs. Trousers were tapered and hung loosely on the hips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiler Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 RIP Tommy Docherty Proud to have been part of Doc's Red Army back in the day. The season we had in the old 2nd division was as enjoyable as the Treble for me. 13 years old going to games with my school mates on a Bostock coach from Macclesfield. Queuing up to get in the Stretford End 3 hours before kickoff. Fearless attacking football, flying wingers, deafening support and that unbelievable feeling of bullet proof togetherness. MUFC one love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
