FLOSS

Becoming a pink resurrected Amy Winehouse from the future for the ‘Cr@ck’ visuals was ultra fun and bittersweet. I remembered I actually had tickets to her show in Berlin, and it got cancelled. I remember telling my Dad „We have to go because she will d!e soon“ (how crazy is that??). And then, she did. It felt unreal. To me, she’s like the tragic Marilyn Monroe of Indie Sleaze. „F me pumps“ was my anthem because I had never heard someone tell stories in such an honest, badass, c*nty way. She dared to tell it how it was, with words nobody (or from my perspective at the time, women) didn’t dare to use. Telling stories from a new perspective. She walked so we could run. And the fashioooooon… She set so many trends (I remember all the girls at my school wore a beehive and ballerinas) and is probably the prototype of what self-proclaimed marketing geniuses now call the „Halloween costume theory“ (=you’re only really a celebrity brand when people can dress up as you for Halloween and be instantly recognized).
Thanks Amy, this our stupid campy little homage to you <3
