Bespoke Bloke...

Friday, March 14, 2008


I love love love that Estelle song "American Boy". I like the video even better( the boys in the video are so cute!). My Best Cousin is in it...Kanye!! And his verse is smoking. Especially when he said something to the effect of being a "bloke" and wearing "Bespoke". I love fashion vocabulary and as of now have a Fashion encyclopedia on hold at B&N. I went to the place librarians love to hate...Wikipedia, for a definition of Bespoke....


Bespoke is usually a British English term for tailored clothing made at a customer's behest, and exactly to the customer's specification. Bespoke clothing is created without use of a pre-existing pattern, differentiating it from made to measure, which alters a standard-sized pattern to fit the customer.
Today, it is also frequently used for technical components specifically developed for a certain application (e.g.
bespoke software), as well as in the automotive and cake decorating industries, when customers get a chance to have an automobile equipped or cake decorated to their specification


I see myself explaining this to "Fashion Boy"...if we were still together. Bloke.
