Junky Styling – Refurbished Threads
by Warren McLaren, Sydney on 01.24.06
Am at a loss to fathom why this site needs to be Flash based. Yet another one to add to the list of those sites we can rail against. A shame because the underlying story seems sound. Back in the early 90’s British teens, Annlka Sanders and Kerry Seager, refashioned clothing from charity stores and jumbles sales into outfits they thought funky enough to wear clubbing. Apparently the styles were admired and soon a business blossomed. Their original inspiration was the reconstruction of gentleman's pinstriped suit and they have recently returned to this for their current collection. But in the meantime have also created wedding dresses that lived up the adage of “something old” and have also refurbished Puma dead stock into “killer looks”. Those with broadband can wait for the download at ::Junky Styling.
I'm with you on the whole flash thing. I don't know about other fields but flash seems to be the rage for clothing people. And, I hate it. The sites are download heavy, images are usually too small to discern clearly and site navigation is enigmatic -at best! Flash only impresses other flash users. It doesn't impress wholesale buyers who won't stick around for the download. And again, I am far less likely to promote one of these sites. Who wants to waste time re-typing a synopsis of the site? While it may look "cool" (that's a matter of opinion) if you make it too much work for me, I won't bother telling anybody about you.
Here's more ideas for your wardrobe! ;)
