- One Day One Lifetime
Just one very short and succinct bit of advice. This is a bit longer than one line, so I will place it in the Politics of Fashion category. At all costs try to always be on your best behavior, because as Karl Lagerfeld so aptly said, and I am paraphrasing, “there is NO justice in the Fashion Business”. If you Fuck up once in this business the chances are that that one bad day can equal a lifetime of rejection from that source, even if you were misread or misunderstood.
I will preface that I am NOT part of the above ilk or practitioner of the above philosophy, in that I always give people the famous three chances before they are out…I would love to list all of those individuals I did give three chances to and they still didn’t get it. Likewise, I would love to one day list all of those I knew who practiced the “one chance” and you are out philosophy. You know who you are…
So remember One Bad Day Could Equal a Lifetime and sometimes it is one strike and your are OUT…
Peace, Love and Understanding, Ben
