Let Me Show You Some Pictures by Jason Sepac LET ME SHOW YOU SOME PICTURES By Jason Sepac They are my dad. They are pictures of my dad. Some are pictures that he took. They are stiff and warped, and some are glossy. Many are muted, as if they’ve been through the laundry too many times. One has no color. And they smell like mothballs and the kind of dust you only find in places you imagine family secrets are buried. I was in elementary school when I discovered the family photo albums in our attic. Like a history book without text. Evidence without argument. An account of a time when I was not born. For Roland Barthes, history can only be looked at from the outside. And in my case, I felt like an outsider, a living person looking at people who had died long ago. But some people, like my parents, they were still alive. They are still alive. How can I make history of people who are still here, still shape their past, still remember and misremember, still create - even if they resemble only strangers and characters in movies?The people in these photos: they were not doing things my parents did, and they didn’t dress the way my parents dressed. These were different. I look closer and the faces blur, and now I recognize the slope of a nose, the gesture of a hand, the curve of a smile - angles and lines connecting different bodies in time. I pull back and I hear stories, and I wonder if they are theirs or if they are mine. 1 My dad started telling stories law, wanted to get to know my parents. We already knew my mom’s stories “That’s not true,” my mom says, listening to my dad tell - a treasure, secret passages and tunnels, when I was a teenager. Until of growing up the daughter of a pipefitter in Pittsburgh, stories told with his story. “I think you’re making things up.” maybe a dragon. Old enough to know it’s then, he hadn’t shared much Jimmy Stewart levels of charm and nostalgia, but we were scared to ask fantasy, but young enough to hope it’s not, about his background, where about my dad. So we followed my mom’s coded rule. “It’s true! Why would I make it up ?” he asks. they set out to go to the castle. he came from and what he’d We’ve heard the row boat story twenty times before. done. I’d always known one He tells it a little differently now. thing: He grew up somewhere THIS WAS PROBABLY WHEN I WAS else, but still, I frequently got ABOUT TEN, ELEVEN, TWELVE YEARS OLD. this wrong. It was Yugoslavia MY FRIENDS - ABOUT THREE OTHER when he was there. And it was FRIENDS AND MYSELF - WOULD GET becoming Croatia in the nine- TOGETHER AND JUST HIKE AND GO ON ties. Sometimes he mentioned ADVENTURES. SO WE DECIDED TO GO TO another country, Slovenia, across THIS RIVER, THE KUPA RIVER. RIGHT the river from his farm. This DOWN THE HILL FROM OUR VILLAGE. IT was everything I knew. WASN’T OUR ORIGINAL PLAN BUT AS WE HIKED DOWN THE GORGE, WE SAW THE “Your dad had a hard life,” CASTLE, AND THEN WE DECIDED THAT my mom would say, which my WAS OUR GOAL. siblings and I thought was code for don’t ask . I imagine this photo when I hear the story. But in 2001 this changed. My It’s one of the few we have of my dad sister, Jenny started dating Kostel Castle before age fifteen. See that jacket he’s this guy, Joe. They hit it off wearing? He wasn’t trying to get dressed and for the first time, we up for this photo.

Despite looking like a perfect shepherd boy here, my dad says it wasn’t the look he was going for. Sure, these were dress clothes or school clothes, but it was just a jacket for my dad - something Joe didn’t know this rule, so he asked. Ten miles from his village there’s an abandoned castle, where to keep him warm, something he wore for all And it turns out, there was no rule. an old king lived - that one up there. One day dad and a occasions. few of his friends hike down the gorge to the Kupa River I expected pain, maybe abuse. That’s what “a hard life” below. They walk, according to my dad, about ten miles. So here’s this kid. He’s supposed to be meant, right? But the stories we heard were magic. Cinematic. They spot a castle across the rapid springtime water. My working on the farm.

WE WERE this here, he recalled his childhood. In the old version of the story it was a waterfall. TAKE OFF IN PANIC. BUT TO OUR SURPRISE, PLAYING THERE ALL ALONG. THAT’S WHAT WE It was definitely a waterfall. THE OWNER OF THE BOAT - HE MUST HAVE WANTED MY MOTHER TO THINK. IT WAS STILL THERE: THIS CASTLE, ALONG SEEN WHAT THE HECK WE WERE UP TO - HE THE RIVER. THERE WERE STORIES THAT THERE WE WERE ALL TRYING TO PADDLE REAL FAST.

But alpaca has, of course, been around for ages – it’s just that its superlative qualities have not beenA fully appreciated until this season. The springy, ultra-soft fibres from the underbellies and necks of a species of camelid living in the Andes make for some very special fabrics. When woven, alpaca takes on various textures, from soft and voluminous to coarse and cropped. And as lightweight fabrications and distinctive textures become defining characteristics of contemporary men’s style, it’s not surprising that alpaca is now being shepherded into a lead role. Brunello Cucinelli, who built his empire on cashmere, has also put alpaca to work beautifully in his signature unstructured tailored outerwear, such as a glen-check short coat (£3,760) and roomy one-and-a-half breasted camel- (£1,390) and bomber jackets (£1,060, colour coat (£3,890).

  • Duffel Entendre | Financial Times
    04/01/2020, 10:37 Page 1 of 1 Style Add to myFT Duffel entendre From counterculture to catwalk, the classic coat is enjoying a renaissance Share Save David Hayes NOVEMBER 12 2011 Until this year’s groundswell of political and social unrest, “protest movement” seemed like a term wrapped in nostalgia, recalling earnest young men wearing horn-rimmed glasses, hair just below their collar, their copies of Allen Ginsberg’s Howl tucked into the front pocket of their duffel coats. Picture the 1968 student riots in Paris, or British parliamentarian Michael Foot at the head of a CND rally in Trafalgar Square, and you’ll get the idea. And yet, with uncanny synchronicity, just as the current Occupy Wall Street protests have gone global, the duffel coat, that very British symbol of the heady days of sit-ins and banner-waving is also back, making its own quiet revolution – in men’s wear. Admittedly, it’s not exactly counterculture. Indeed, it’s almost the opposite, but designers from Burberry to Bottega Veneta, Balmain, Raf Simons and Junya Watanbe have all run up versions of the classic British navy coat, complete with decidedly un- protest-friendly price tags. In fact some of the numbers could provoke a mini-riot all of their own. “The duffel has become a real luxury item this winter,” says Stacey Smith, men’s wear buyer at Matches. “We have an amazing fur-trimmed Balmain duffel coat that takes it to a whole other level at £3,888.” Jeremy Langmead, editor-in-chief at Mr Porter, says the appeal of the duffel coat lies in the fact that it is an item of clothing that has been adopted by both the establishment and the anti-establishment.

  • Sweet Memories of Scent and Sweat
    IAN WERE SWEET MEMORIES OF SCENT AND SWEAT Clothes and fabrics worn on our bodies retain their own memories in several ways. Clothes take on part of the wearer, a memory by way of perspiration, or traces of other bodily fluids, like blood – evident through a scent or stain. These can be fresh smelling, a bouquet really, or bitter-sweet or sour. Or, if left for a long time, strongly perfumed from bacteria, mixed perhaps with whatever the wearer was doing at the time, as in dust, food or grease from the day’s toil. Many clothes are made to get dirty; some are simply disposable, along with their memories. Hats and textiles often grow into the shape of the wearer: we’ve all seen a certain shaped head or body echoed in their apparel. Clothes can also leave a memory of themselves on our bodies. The mark left around the waist or stomach from a tight elastic band or belt, for example. Even images of fashion models with trim figures show such signs – pre-photo-shopping that is. On some people these marks appear as a semi-permanent reminder of something long-worn. The traces made from tight socks or the band of a wristwatch, or the altered hair shape or impression left on a brow from a hat worn all day. Likewise, a naked sun-tanned or sun-burned body can faithfully reflect an image of an item of clothing previously worn, a singlet or bathers – a simple photogram through exposure and development. On occasions the memory of a person can be vividly recalled simply by looking at an item of clothing.
