WHAT IS AVANT-GARDE MINIMALISM & THE ROW? Taking a look at The Row's Pre-Fall 2023 Collection 

I really enjoy how you appreciate and explain fashion within a broad artistic context. Curating a wardrobe is 100 percent artistic self expression. People convey a message and a mood with their clothing choices, whether or not they mean to or realize it. And it absolutely connects with and draws inspiration from other art forms. You’ve quickly become one of my favorite content creators.

“Low culture is high culture in a postmodernist society” we need a video on this! ❤

Amazing video and yes please do about the 90s minimalism and avant garde. I feel you could also talk about the sometimes problematic adverts trying to be “edgy”

Love your Row content

I admire the amount of intelligence and research and analysis and reflection you put together in each video, especially in drawing parallels between fashion and art and history, and culture; even politics! This is the kind of intellectually stimulating fashion content I wanna see more of on YT, Mary. :)

Always get to learn so much beyond the scope of fashion - architecture, art critics, a bit of history and the philosophy behind designs. Love visiting your 'room' Mary ;) x

I would love to see your take on 90s minimalism. I find your videos so interesting. Another great video beautiful Mary! 😘

Wow, what a spectacular video. So stimulating and inspiring. The best style channel ever. You’ve sparked my first ever RU-vid comment!

Excellent video. Much appreciated.

Just found your channel and I feel like it’s made for me. As an art history grad with a life long live for fashion I’m loving this

Thank you so much for sharing. Happy holidays darling 🎄🎁💕

Your observation about the mature women really resonated with me… what I like to think of as “the relaxed woman”

Honestly, thank you for these videos

Excellent video! I love your perspective and content. Intelligent and fresh! Thank you!

As always a pleasure.

Another brilliant analysis 👌🏽 you're so good at this, i'm genuinely impressed & intrigued ☺ Thank you for the research you do to seamlessly put these videos together ♡

Great video once again! I never comment on you tube but I love this original take on fashion.

Love this one so much---I think I say that about all your videos. Thank you!

Excellent video thanks. Enjoyed all the art references.

I like specifically dark minimalism that blends suffistication in every day casual mens outfits tailored to women, I guess thats one way of putting it. The Olsens are a lot more interesting than I realized.

Would love it if you did a video on personal style

Love your videos! Keep going. Such a fresh way of taking about fashion, I love your deep dives and analyze style videos. Very refined

I feel like the clothing brand Joseph reminds me a lot of the Row, anyone else thing there’s a resemblance?

Kitch in this context should be a met theme!

Wonderful vid. Will definitely check out The Row now

I agree about YSL diamond quilt bags looking Chanel. It's a shame because Yves Saint Laurent has a great legacy to take inspiration from.

I love yours videos!! Please do one about Bottega Veneta!!!!!

To add some POC, I'd love a vid on Sade!

I don't normally find myself watching fashion videos. I find them vapid. But your videos actually focus on the artistic qualities of fashion, and you introduce history in the mix siting various artists to compare and support your point. Your videos are always thoughtful and relaxing to watch. I absolutely appreciate the artform of Avant Garde Minimalism. I've been curious about it for a while and how that looks. If you have any more information about this particular subject, it would be cool to see you explore an entire series of videos. As this feels like a branch that gets neglected by a lot of minimalists. 💖🪷🎶

so thoughtful and accurate

Perhaps the goal of fashion, any fashion, should be to create functional, comfortable, attractive and quality products that don’t need to be tossed after a couple of months of wear. Is that too much to ask? Obviously, yes.

I do want to note that yves was obsessed with coco chanel so the resemblance isn’t as jarring to me as it may seem at first glance

Oversized anything looks sloppy in my opinion, especially on petite frame. Great video Mary

I always felt kitch implied “ugly” in addition to tacky and overdone ad nauseam. An attractive design, such as for example the tank watch, could never be kitch no matter how much it is replicated.
