People who sit on fences usually either have no real opinion whatever or keep fart-arse realigning their opinions according to who they're talking to. I said I like the Polaroid diary. Sounds like an affirmative statement to me.
I haven't quite made my mind up about Gareth Pugh's work but then I don't know it so I'm discovering it here. He obviously has talent though and, whether it's original or not it looks pretty distinctive to me. His style/design is strong so I can imagine it would be visually exciting to work with for a photographer etc. I wish I hadn't missed the whole live shoot yesterday. I'm really finding this project interesting!
