Mongol Babies

purveyor of fine critique

This is one of the best fashion films ever made. [See David Lynch’s Lady Blue Shanghai for YSL for one of the worst, in my opinion.] Harmony Korine is one of the few (white) American filmmakers who has aggressively and unapologetically talked about race and class - and in doing so, has really pissed a lot of people off. The fact that people find this film to be in “bad taste” only foregrounds the lack of representation of race and class in the high fashion imaginary.
