A fashion statement from GQ UK

I have been reading GQ Magazine (UK Edition) for long time, and it is really well written and enjoying to read like a car magazine. Some people don’t have any idea about this magazine and in briefly; if you want to develop your intellectual level you should read it :)


And I like their comments on different things! Sometimes you never expect to read anything like this or never imagined that thought but they did it. In February, 2011 issue has something really interesting.


I am directly writing the phrase from the magazine;

“Any shoe made from read satin with a heel resembling a lethal weapon is a shoe her legs need to be attached to. Be warned though, these Gianmarco Lorenzi dazzlers will demand a taxi wherever they go. £590. gianmarcolorenzi.com

I mentioned this statement to my fashion blogger friend Moda Cadısı (Fashion Witch) and she just said, definitely true :)


But there is one point they missed to mention. If you hire a black cab in UK (I prefer for its spacious interior) you might be bearing the terrible back suspension made by leaf springs. Ladies, your feet will be comfortable but your back will feel the whole pot hole on road! If you are asking what is leaf spring? It is something designed to carry heavy weights, not human beings!! No comfort at all.

GQ Sections

I have been reading GQ UK Magazine for long time. I like the way they combine different topics together in one fashion magazine. You can find whatever you want in each issue. It is like a Swiss army knife magazines, if you want to learn life style start reading GQ. Especially the UK edition, because it is better!


However I have some concerns about GQ, as I mentioned they talk about everything but not everything all the time! Their car section is written by Celia Walden and Jason Barlow. Celia drove everything from tank to private jets and we know Jason from CAR and TopGear magazines. Despite the respectful contributors to car column, but I’ve never seen cars in their Style section. There are lots of things expects car. Actually cars are placed under “Entertainment”! GQ’s placement for cars is very interesting.


I know cars are entertaining but the stylish people do not drive cheap and dull looking cars. They spent fortune on stylish cars. Like, Range Rover Autobiography, Mercedes’s bespoke Designo, BMW Individual and many more. I am not expecting to see a diesel Volkswagen Passat Estate in Style section but they can place some of the cars under it.
