Exclusive interview with Tavi Gevinson from 2010 EPIC Awards

[Hinoirocks]

The idea that fashion needs to be deep or individual is old. obviously, everyone has some unique mix of style(even if it's uniqlo, who's model is lack of any particular style) but seriously, we've had Warhol, we have Disney pop acts aping whatever trendy genre/style they can, and a whole weird mash of genre/style happenings. Tavi gets this. It's nothing "new",just a logical progression of old.

Enjoy yourself. Take only what you need from it.

taken out of context, her witty blogs look supposedly 'hip' and cool. but if you dont know her apparantly 'cool' background, she looks like the weird, opinionated, geeky kid at school. just cause she's in the BLOGOSPHEREEE why is she suddenly percieved by the hipster masses as some inspirational fashionista? stand back, look at her, listen to her. theres nothing deep or individual here. jesus christ

[Rubybookify]

I am her biggest fan, I swear!

[tigerpawsnclaws1]

i love her what a talented inspirational young women

[303username]

she's goddam brilliant.

[EGII456]

Your glasses are ugly, her hair cut is ugly she is still amazing! =)

[arancienne]

She's pretty smart for a 14 year old, gotta say.

[Scariestkiller]

Wow... making more people famous that just should not be famous. Good job america. you never let me down -__-

[nicolie01]

@Scariestkiller well, i wouldnt consider her famous, ppl just know her from her fashion blogs and style rookie. she gets invited to fashion week and things like that bcuz of her fashion sense and how it's unique. most of us don't have a fashion sense like hers, which is why she's eye catching. and america makes ppl famous becuz they think they have talent, not bcuz Scariestkiller thinks they should or shouldnt have talent. the world doesnt revolve around u, get over it ^^

[Scariestkiller]

Although you have a point, When Justin Bieber revolutionized music the most in 50 years, don't talk to me about america wanting talent, sweetheart. You've obviously been brainwashed by the same subjective community that made Tavi famous. Critics don't exist in my perfect world, because it's those same critics that took the unique aspect in almost everyone of the United States. Please, it is fucking easy to be a critic. She's only a critic 'cause she can't make a dress.

[nicolie01]

@Scariestkiller dont tell me im brainwahshed. i HATE justin bieber just as much as the next guy. see.. i hate ppl without talent. i dont miley cyrus, justin beaver, and other ppl tht i cant think off the top of my head at the moment. she can make a dress... she shows u how to step by step on her blog ^^.

tht just proves u really dont understand exactly what ur talking about. also... ur being very... stereotypical about this. for example... movie critics dont see things like other ppl at all

[Scariestkiller]

@nicolie01

I'll admit, I stepped into the unkown, talking shit about her fabricating of clothes. Still though, fuck critics. I can honestly live without them.

[nicolie01]

@Scariestkiller and i really dont mean to ramble, bcuz not only am i wasting my time but yours also.... but the ppl who made tavi and justin are completely different. lots of ppl dont know a thing about tavi meanwhile they can name justin beavers blood type on instinct. tavi is not only different, but better. ppl call her clothes granny clothes, but it's not, it's vintage. she's looking back into history instead of looking forward into the "unpredictable" future. and this girls only 14 years old

[RRRGGGSSS999]

@Scariestkiller

Bieber revolutionizing music? That is a load of shit, he is just a disney pop singer. Tavi is fucking cool

[lmh7015]

@Scariestkiller she's not really famous, she is a style blogger. she's meant to be at the fashion shows because many people look to her blog for inspiration

[TheBellaTenenbaum]

Shes a little genious. Wow

[mspinkstar1234]

@TheBellaTenenbaum spell it right lmao :))

[fifi11011]

[junegirl94]

she has something weird about her

[oZANNYo]

@junegirl94 her entire being is weird.. hahah :)

[cl3angetaway]

@junegirl94 i agree. she strikes me as like a high functioning autistic or something

[softijsje13]

14? She looks like 40!

[nicolie01]

@softijsje13 ik, i liked her brownish blonde hair better...
