ギャランス・ドレさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ギャランス・ドレInstagram)「When I left Paris yesterday to fly home to Corsica, there was a funny sense of irony in the air. Fashion Week had just started. . It wasn’t planned like that. I just hadn’t thought about it, because I don’t really anymore. At the @hotellutetia where I was staying, I could see giant bags of @chloe being delivered. A team photographing a girl going up & down & up & down the stairs, tirelessly. A whole world was getting amped up. I was leaving. . I left FW slowly, withdrawing my presence as I felt it was not needed anymore - causing me more stress & pain than feeding my creative spirit. . It was hard, because I had status. Status I had earned working tirelessly. . To some, this bubbly, beautiful & cruel world is a neon dream come true. To others it’s a maze of anxiety. I’m part of the second group, though it took me a while to admit it to myself. . The panic attacks started hitting stronger. I had to listen. The world of fashion itself was shifting. Hoards of influencers where making fashion something new. They didn’t need anyone to take their photos, they were doing it themselves. The same images were repeated everywhere. My mission had shifted from telling stories about a fascinating world to sitting pretty on the front row in order to perpetuate & grow my status, my “brand”. . As my body painfully reminded me, it’s just not me. Our truth is non-negotiable. Trust me, I tried. . So I left. The positive effects of listening to your soul are immediate. I never regretted it. On the contrary, each time I hear that fashion week is going on somewhere, I sigh with relief. I am so happy I gave my spot to someone that appreciates it. . I still love fashion & beautiful images. Just differently. I still talk to a lot of insiders, because they come to me & ask for my point of view - and I have many points of views 😋 . So today I am writing you from peaceful Corsica, my heart grateful for the courage to let go of things we should be loving but just don’t, or don’t anymore. To life changes & allowing our passions to flow. To reinventing ourselves as many times as needed. And loving life exactly where we are, whatever else is going on in the world.」9月25日 18時06分
