Charles Guislain

If there is one thing i despise more than dense fashion fan girls who think they’ll become interesting just be wearing shitty 2nd hand shirts for $ 300 it might be the fashion scene itself. One could argue that you have to love the pure decadence they live but sadly most of them have nothing in common with Oscar Wilde when it comes to the intellectual background of decadence. They are just pretentious drug addicts who think they become interesting by selling shitty 2nd hand shirts for… well, you got the point.
Nonetheless there are a few things making following the fashion industry worthwhile occasionally. Such as adorable baby fags like Charles Guislain. Prose anarchist and modern de Sade Dennis Cooper alerted me about him. “He’s a 16 year old Parisian school boy and fashion scenester and aspiring fashion designer. He seems to either charm the pants off of people or inspire heavy suspicion and vitriol.”
If he doesn’t end up being the next Hedi Slimane he will probably end up dating him.

Leo Bear Creek
Mar 22nd
I hate Indie Rock. I do. With passion. But at least this kid is doing something he likes.
[Found at milkboard, see comments for more videos]
In a small town in France that he calls Kidderminster (maps call it something else), there lives a 15-year-old boy named Leo. He’s a mini-troubador who specializes in drums and the left-handed ukelele, and you might already have heard one of his songs, recorded with Kimya Dawson and her husband as a group called Antsy Pants, on the soundtrack to Juno. Leo’s first band (formed when he was only 12) was called Bear Creek, and he and his pal Alex also have a band called the Matching Cubes, but his main project at the moment is playing drums and singing in Coming Soon, a band he formed wih his older brother Ben Lupus and a bunch of their mutual friends. Their music is sweet and naive, wry and dirty, and sung in English – they grew up on British and American music and, as everybody knows, rock music just doesn’t sound right en francais. It’s got an effortless cool that’s half Gallic charm and half Strokes-y self-confidence, but it’s as unpretentious as your average 9-year-old, full of dirty jokes and a quirky sense of fun that recalls their friends in the Moldy Peaches. They’re touring all over France this summer, and their debut album, New Grids is out now on the French label Kitchen.
