Fugger: Tilda Swinton

Well Played, SWINTON


My favorite part of this pic is the wee Bowie picture in the background. Never have they been so close and yet so far. (She is, of course, in his new video, and attended this opening of a V&A exhibit about him “impersonating him in his absence.“)

All I know is, if this is SWINTON doing her best Bowie, a) she should impersonate him always, because she looks amazing (even with just very slightly too long pants) and b) I want her to do Ziggy Stardust next.

SWINTONLY PLAYED SWINTON


I just assume this is what she wears when she emerges from her pod every morning.

We Need To Talk About SWINTON


I’m running out of headline options for her: If I were to pull our usual “fug” word switcheroo with her, I think half of Fug Nation would rise up and unseat me, and I am WAY too lazy to go find another chair.

Wow. It’s like… a suit cocoon.

It’s a sleek planet indeed whose alien beings hatch out of lapels.

SWINTONLY Played, SWINTON


SWINTON is just so groovy.

I just want to go over to her house, where I assume she will be wearing this and she’ll hand me a weird cocktail and then we’ll go out into her treehouse — don’t be misled, it’s actually a very modern structure — where she will give me blunt and excellent romantic advice and then leave me to go canoodle with one of the men in her household, asking me to rearrange her slacks wardrobe as payback. AND I WILL HAPPILY DO SO. I mean, truly, I would look like an IDIOT in this ensemble — trying too hard, party of one — but she seriously just….looks like this. Teach me your ways, O SWINTON.

Even this is good on her:

BAFTA Awards Wah-Waaah Carpet: SWINTON


Man, usually people save the best for last. And when SWINTON busted out a big gun at the Golden Globes, we were so excited at where that meant the lunacy would end up come Oscar time.

Instead, she’s been dressing like a woman who is really not all that excited to be attending her own third and fourth weddings.
