Garath Pugh- London Fashion week



Gareth Pugh. May 2007


Born: August 21. 1981 Sunderland. England


Nationality: English


Education: City of Sunderland College, Central Saint Martins


Gareth Pugh, His solo premiere was in London's Fall 2006 fashion week. Afterwards he have continued his Spring 2007 and Autumn 2007 collections. Gareth's shows have drawn critical praise such as British Vogue called his Spring 2007 collection "an incredible, unmissable show". Many notable magazine editor as Anna Wintour are his supporter.

However, Pugh claimed in March 2007.that he had yet to sell a single dress as he is shifting more wearable cloths to his runaway shows.

Personally I love his design and colour constructions. It always gives me a fresh, dramatic feeling of life from his collections. But it seems to be changing because of commercial and critical purpose. Still, I am looking forward his next fashion show and I believe that he won't let me down.

How can we take a nice Shots



This is my work i have done in my university in China. As you can see here, this is a set of quick sketches. What is this connected with photograph? You might have a query of this picture and photography.

Now i am going to tell you in two simple ways that can make easy-nice shot.
Mainly it divides 2 main reasons that make gorgeous pictures.
First of all, you have to know which spot you want to focus on. As same as human beings eyes, lens only can focus one spot. If you can catch the main subject you wanted to, the picture is half succeeded.
Secondly, as you can see my sketch above, you need to imagine a frame to the spot you focused. It dose function as decorate your main subject. Obviously, different direction, lights, and the things you included in picture will effect your pictures a lot.

This is the basic one of the hundreds of photograph skills that you will need to know if you are interested about photograph.

* APPRECIATE* means Fully recognize

Last week, exactly on 20th of this month, I received a letter from London Met University(which currently i m studying in). It said according to the record, I didn't pay my last part of tuition by 30th of April. Furthermore, It was warning me that "you should appreciate that it would bring negative impact on your further academy course". Such a fun that actually I payed my tuition on time and that was the system in university couldn't read the information about my debit payment.
They made a mistake and the result went to me directly. Put me in trouble of using student ID card as couldn't get into university, and get the unpleasant letter from Income office head. I could ignore all of this. but why I have to.
As a result, I really want to say that the letter from University office should be more friendly. University is the place that teach not only ability but also manner to student. If they want to partly get support from international students as they pay full tuition, they should be more alert on their speech. Also do their work more effectively that reduce such mistakes which bring a lot of problem to both University stuffs and students.
