EDITOR’S NOTE My life has grown so much as well as my craft and vision for both FADDY Magazine and myself as a creative and as the Editor in Chief. I couldn’t have done any of this without the trust and love from all the contributors. I literally pinch myself because of how far I’ve come and where I am today. A year ago my dream of having Helmut Newton, Ellen Von Unwerth and Albert Watson on FADDY Magazine covers came true. The list continues to expand as we continue to collaborate with more internationally recognized creative icons. My sincerest gratitude is endless to all of you. I am proud of the work we have all done and will continue to do. Those 80 hour weeks were not in vain. I built something that I’m truly proud of and a beautiful FADDY family that I adore to no end.
I’d like to start my opening statement for the “Wonderland Issue” with this beautiful quote about wonder:
“Wonder is the beginning of wisdom” ~Socrates
As you all know, the past two years have been both difficult yet filled with great lessons and incredible strides for many of us in the arts and creative community. I’d like to think FADDY Magazine has brought us together and also created a stronger creative community, globally. I know for myself the last couple of years have been filled with miracles on all levels. Especially my relationships with everyone who contributes to FADDY Magazine. It’s an honor and privilege to finally have the iconic Naeem Khan grace my cover. “Naeem thank you for two of the most glorious days of shooting feature and your cover with Nicola D Orazio with our lovely cover girl Parker Winston. I especially enjoyed having the opportunity to style, creative direct and privilege of shooting on location in Naeem’s glorious home in New York City.
I am dedicating this issue to the “beauty of wonder” because without wonder we would not awaken the child within and nor would we have the curiosity to create. I would also like to give a very warm thank you to the iconic and legendary Patricia Field for her beautiful contribution to this issue. If anyone understands wonder and the child within its Patricia Field. I would also like to congratulate her on her beautiful work for the Netflix series Emily in Paris. I would also like to wish Patricia an early happy birthday. February 12th is indeed a day of celebration. I could go on and on, but I’ll let the issue tell you the story and with no further ado I welcome you to FADDY Magazines “Wonderland Issue” and all the contributors who made this issue magical. Have a Happy New Year and a wonderful 2022, and remember to keep the child alive inside and continue to be inspired and create.

NAEEM KAHN EXCLUSIVE I N T E RV I E W B Y L I N D A A R RO Z
Is there a thrill of designing for individual bodies? The reality of the women we dress, the woman who really wears my clothes is not a fashion model. She may be voluptuous, but she is a normal woman. Designing clothing for women takes a bit of an understanding, because the normal woman in Japan is different from the normal woman in Texas or Los Angeles How do you design for the world? It comes with many years of experience. It’s like being both scientist and engineer. You must understand the body and know the nature of various materials and what they can do. There you were, a teenager in the middle of such an exciting time in the history of New York fashion scene, working with Halston. Looking back on that moment, how were you able to focus on the work when you were surrounded by the decadence of the era? It was the love of my mother and heroes like my father and grandfather which kept me in place. As I grew up, I studied myself and wondered why I didn’t go the route of getting involved with drugs or hanging out with the wrong people. Even though I was very young and tempted, I did not want to become a black dot on my family. To hear them say, “we put him in the right place, and he was a failure,” ensured there was no failure for me. You designed a gown for Michele Obama with two weeks’ notice. Please tell us how that went down behind the scenes. That was the opportunity of a lifetime. When I got the phone call the White House wanted me to design a dress for Michelle Obama, I totally panicked, because two weeks in my world is nothing. Everything must be done by hand.
10
When I first started working in fashion, I was a kid. I was working for Warhol, and we used to hang out and draw poppies together, making flowers for Halston’s clothes. Inspired by Andy Warhol’s poppies, I drew the embroidery and designed a textile which had this history for me. As I sent it to my factory, I remembered that in my grandfathers’ time there was a technique for making sequins of pure gold and silver. Imagine taking a gold wire and twisting it in a circle around a nail, removing the nail, and then hammering the round wire to flatten it into a sequin. That technique and the noise: the tick, tock, tock, tock, has been in my head since I saw my grandfather do it when I was five years old.
I’m inspired by places that have history and culture. What I take from countries is their history, and how history changes food, how history changes fashion, how history changes art. When cultures meet, new things come to life. You’re a wonderful chef and fabulous host. If there was an impromptu dinner, what would we eat? This week I’m having a few people over for dinner at home. It’s going to be a festive Indian evening, but with things like caviar served in the style of street food. Taking the simplest of street food and making it super luxurious, that’s the dichotomy, whether it be food or fashion. It’s how we put it all together that makes it interesting.
I wanted those Andy Warhol flowers to be created in that same technique. These handmade sequins were sewn onto the Andy Warhol inspired flowers on flesh colored tulle. Over a hundred people worked on it. It was sent back in a week. But there was a problem. The White House did not want to provide the First Lady’s measurements, for her privacy. I created a corset that could be several sizes, it could overlap or be let out. Then I constructed a wired, strapless dress on top of the corset. It was all done on the bias cut, so the fabric could move and stretch in different ways. Even the tulle had a bit of stretch to it. This dress could be a size four or a size 10! It fit her like a glove. I know that two other designers were also asked to make a dress, but I had to win. I won! Is there a location on the planet that continues to inspire you? I love going to places where there is no fear of color. Where this is no fear of gold on green or adding a layer of purple on something.

CRISTOPH MICHAELIS BIO
Cristoph Michaelis, has been a professional photographer since 2005.
Michaelis’ started directly with nude photography and strives to photograph women in such a way that the nudity is not in the foreground in the pictures
What Cristoph admired is the strength women embody. After that, he began to see women with different eyes and a more focused point of view.
“I see them from a perspective that brings out their strength and femininity, because they come to me with the desire to live them out in front of the camera and that I capture them in pictures. These are images that women should make, self-confident, not doubts in themselves and to become aware of their femininity and strength.”
His pictures are predominantly black and white and focus on the essentials. They are rich in contrast, which endear his photographs with more power strength and emotional feedback to his audience.
“Viewing the first few pictures in the camera, they feel strong and it gives the shots courage during the shoot.” Michaelis’ commented, “They dive into a special world of their own and ignore everyday life.
“I give them the opportunity to go home with confidence and I am proud that they trust me.”
Since 2019 Cristoph has been taking photos primarily with female artists from different countries with an intent to make women look like sculptures.

ALL THINGS PAT R I C I A PHOTOGRAPHY BY NIGEL BARKER C R E AT I V E D I R E C T O R / P R O D U C E R EDITOR IN CHIEF CANDICE SOLOMON
PAT R I C I A F I E L D EXCLUSIVE I N T E RV I E W BY ANNEYSA GAILLE
Anneysa Gaille: In the past, you’ve said that “if you recognize your essence and play it up, it works. You can’t go against your nature, that’s when you make mistakes.” How did your childhood in New York shape your essence? Are there any moments that were defining for you in regard to recognizing your own essence? Patricia Field: My childhood in New York created my essence. It was my whole experience. I was born in Manhattan. My grandmother and family lived in Astoria. I used to go back and forth from our apartment in Manhattan to Astoria. I had three single, younger aunts who were very much in my life as a kid in addition to my mom. I grew up positively and normally. AG: Something that has always intrigued me about costume design is the integral role it plays in character development because, as you have said, “costume design… isn’t about selling clothes, it’s about telling a story.” How has your personal life story affected your understanding of such an endeavor? PF: I found it very interesting when I entered the world of costume design at some point in the mid-eighties. It was an adjunct to my experience as a fashion shop owner. It was another step out there, another way of expression. I really did enjoy it because it was a new dimension for me. As we’ve said, costume design is not about selling clothes. Costume design is about selling a character. The components of that are the actor who portrays the character and the script, which is foremost because we are all revolving around that script creatively. But it’s very important to get to know the actor.
146
After all, the actor is who’s portraying the character in front of the camera. AG: Has how you approach developing the style of a character changed—or perhaps not changed— over the years as you have grown personally and professionally? PF: I learned that actors need to be comfortable. They need to feel positive about the way they look because that helps them to assume this fictitious character. So, getting to know the actor is an important step for developing the style of a character since it’s the actor who’s in front of the camera. It’s not in any way a dictatorial job. Aside from being artistically creative, it’s a bit psychological as well because you have to develop a relationship with the actor so that they trust you. Once that trust is established, they have confidence in you and it’s basically smooth sailing. AG: I love that you bring up this image of motion because it reminds me of how you are known for using costume design as a means by which one can be elevated. Could you elaborate on this stance? PF: Yes—I’ve been told or read things written about how I elevate reality with costume design. However, in my mind, brain, and heart, I love to elevate regardless of whether it’s in costume design or in my shop. It’s an elevation and it gives another dimension to what is being experienced. The idea of elevation is second nature to me. AG: I’m glad you brought up your shop because I’d like to talk about your eponymous boutique that opened in 1966 and became a fashion landmark. What
made you want to open a boutique and how has working in retail influenced you creatively? PF: For me, going into fashion retail was a natural progression when I graduated from NYU, where I had studied liberal arts. I definitely enjoyed it, but I didn’t see myself in some academic or corporate situation. I was always very creative, and fashion came easy to me. I learned early on to do what’s easy for you. Don’t go against gravity— go with the flow, your natural flow. This took me into fashion retail. And as a kid, I was exposed to business experience with my mom, who was in the dry-cleaning business; even though I was a child, I played an active role in her business. Because of this early exposure, business was also something that came fairly naturally to me. So, it was about combining the two and creating a career out of these experiences. AG: In another interview, you described your approach to your life and career path as being organic, like “sitting by the seashore” when “a wave comes in” with “a little pearl” that you then take. You also asserted that “this happens all of the time if you open your eyes.” Can you elaborate on the meaning of this? PF: It’s an analogy of looking for the warmth and the shine of the sun, for being optimistic. People enjoy what I deliver in that sense. It’s not strict reality. It’s more of a blend. It becomes more interesting that way and much more enjoyable. I take it very personally. It’s definitely the way I interpret my work. It was the same in my shop. My shop was unique: people came from everywhere as it became well-known. It’s about the fantasy and fun of the fashion experience.

AG: You once described your shop as a daytime club. How would you describe your personal and creative relationship with New York’s club scene?
and then Myra started working in the shop. Based on the people that we knew and some of the ball kids, we got into it and that’s when the House of Field was born
PF: It was like a salad: one enhanced the other, and one influenced the other as well.
AG: That’s wonderful. Can you talk about its further development?
The club scene at the time was much more active and fashion oriented than today. So, they went hand in hand, whether it was entertainers who frequented my shop, club goers, or just an assortment of other people. It definitely had that feeling of a club by day—especially since the people that I hired in my shop were creatives who were unique individuals. They provided inspiration to the people who came in because it was like no other typical boutique shop. It was, as people call it, an experience AG: Talking about your store inevitably brings to mind House of Field. Can you describe what inspired House of Field? PF: The House of Field had a fairly long history with me when I initially moved my first little shop from NYU’s campus to 8th Street. One of my clients was from Singapore; he was a trans dresser. He invited me to go to a ball up in Harlem and said, “come late, come very late”; I said, “fine, no problem.” I went there around two or three in the morning, but nothing really started until four or five That was my first experience in the ball scene; this is what started my House of Field idea. Then, I employed a young woman by the name of Myra Lewis, who recently did a documentary film on the ball scene. It was screened at the SVA theater on 23rd Street. It was a full house, and I was really happy for Myra because she put a lot of work into this and she was great in my store as well So, I knew about the ball scene
148
PF: We held a few balls; one was right near here on Grand Street at an event space that we rented. It was my idea to bring the fashion world into the ball scene. For example, I invited Marc Jacobs. Vogue was there. It was quite an event. To me, though that was not our only ball, it was the epitome of the balls that we did under the name House of Field. AG: I really admire how you have embodied the intersections of art, culture, and fashion throughout your career. Now, you’re working on Art Fashion. How was it generated PF: Five or six years ago, I had a property and a store on the Bowery. I bought it when the Bowery was not so chic, but in the years that went on, it became a chic place. I was constantly being approached to sell it, but I never took any of those offers seriously. Then one day I was in my office on the Bowery and I realized that I’d been doing a retail store for close to 50 years. And I said, “this is crazy. I’m going to sell it. I have a very good asset here. I’m going to do it. I’ve had a store for too long.” So, I sold it and had to ask myself about what I was going to do next. Throughout the years, many artists had their work in my store— whether it was a painted canvas or a painted t-shirt—and there was always a core of artists who were in the store. Since I had sold my store but was not ready to do nothing, I thought about doing a little art gallery where I could bring those artists and designers. That was the idea, and I took three of my people from the store
to work at this art gallery with me. At this point, we’ve exhibited down in Miami for Art Basel and other places. However, my gallery is a permanent installation. It consists of artists that paint on clothing, which is something that I feel as though I originally started. It was original at the time. So, it kept me in touch with what I wanted to be in touch with, but it was much less responsibility. A retail shop—especially mine, which was so diverse—is a lot of work: it’s staff; it’s shopping; it’s everything that goes into it. Lately I’ve been going to the gallery on a daily basis because I decided that I needed a rest upon returning from Paris after the second season of Emily in Paris, which I did the costume for. So, I’ve been a part of it more than before when I was just going from one TV show after another. My gallery has been perfect for this: I just walk into my gallery right around the corner. Film and TV are demanding, as is having a full-on retail store. And it’s not that I didn’t enjoy every minute of it—I was just ready for something a little bit less extra. AG: It sounds very intense. How have you been able to navigate those different worlds and find balance for so long? PF: When I started with TV, it was in the mid-eighties; at that point, I had been doing my shop since the mid-sixties. So, when the opportunity came to me to do the costumes for a film on the recommendation of my very good friend Candy Pratts Price, it was something new. She was involved in a film starring Diane Lane called Lady Beware, and the director asked her for a recommendation for someone to do the costumes. Then she called me and said, “I’m in Pittsburgh. You want to come here and do costumes?” I had never done it before. So, I said, “sure!”

I went to Pittsburgh and I knew nothing about the ins and outs of how it worked: even though I could handle the creative part, I had to learn the structural part. I enjoyed it; it was a great change for me after those years in retail. I enjoyed it because it was a change while still being something that I was familiar with and could handle One thing led to another—another TV show, another movie. Then I was juggling two careers at once, but I managed to do so because I was into it. I wasn’t going to close my shop, but I wanted to do film. So, I did it. You can do it if you’ve got the interest and the energy for it, though the interest is the most important You have to do it with your heart and excitement about what you’re doing. AG: I like your use of the word excitement because you’ve said that “if you don’t have an exciting life in New York, it’s your fault.” How would you define an exciting life? PF: For me, the definition of an exciting life is simple and at the same time complex. The simple side of an exciting life is to be emotionally and mentally happy with living and creating; the complex side of an exciting life is being able to achieve that by putting together all the pieces that fit as in a puzzle to make the picture. AG: How do you feel the different decades have perhaps influenced various levels of optimism or pessimism about putting together this puzzle? PF: That’s a very nice question because I recently coined a philosophy about exactly your question. As you know, I love history and philosophy; at NYU, I studied history and philosophy. So, of course I’ve always had that inside of me. My theory is that the culture of the time permeates everything, including fashion. It permeates the mood
150
of the time and the mood of the people, what they’re going through and what their experiences are. This is displayed in many ways creatively, and fashion is a part of it. All of the creative arts are that way, but I don’t think fashion has ever been described that way; it dawned on me that I needed to describe it that way. For example, I’ll jump to the sixties even though I could go back to the twenties. In the sixties, the war was over and the people were optimistic. We were going to the moon; we became conscious of other planets. People like Pierre Cardin and Rudi Gernreich got into this modernism, but that’s because the people were feeling it and we were responding to it. The Great Depression was different. It was faded. It didn’t really have a cut—neither loose nor tight, just hanging from the shoulders. But in the sixties, everything was a happy dance and people were excited to put on white space boots and a shift dress with a shape while wearing a helmet for a hat. It was a very optimistic time and it reflected the excitement that people had. AG: I’ve heard that you’re working on a book. Is this philosophy something you discuss in it? PF: I don’t think I’ve included it just yet, but that doesn’t mean I won’t. Though the book isn’t finished, I have named it Pat in the City. I went through a few different names and thought about calling it Pat and the City before coming up with Pat in the City. Then I called Darren Star because I didn’t want to infringe on any copyrights and said, “Darren, I’m going to write a book. Can I call it Pat in the City?” He said it was no problem. I’m working with a writer on the book. The writer’s name is Rebecca Paley. We are on chapter seven at this point. It’s a memoir and a trip through Oz. It starts when I was a kid, exploring the influence of, for
example, my mother. She was a businesswoman who was busy all day, but at night we would go to the Greek clubs with belly dancers where I would drink a highball. Working on a book is a whole other world, but repetition does not excite me—challenge and newness does. Even though sometimes it’s scary, in the end if you adapt, you have a positive experience. You need to strike while the iron is hot and jump in and jump the hell out—after that it’s part of a trend. Trendy things catch on.

ROBERT SANTORÉ
182
THESE COLORS TA S T E L I K E MUISIC ROBERT SANTORÉ IS AN INTERNATIONALLY COLLECTED CONTEMPORARY ARTIST, PAINTER, SCULPTOR & PHOTOGRAPHER WITH STUDIO PRACTICES IN MANHATTAN, NEW YORK AND AT HIS TEXAS ART RANCH IN MONTGOMERY, TEXAS Santoré is best known for his series of large format, word paintings and abstract figures. Heavily influence as a boomer generation painter, the colors, music, fashion and advertising of the 1960s & 70s he was exposed to as a child. His “neo-postwar abstract expressionist paintings”, a practice he began in 1986. He started introducing words and numbers into his early and notable abstract paintings, such as “Famous” (1986), “Baby Linen” (1987) “Bull Market” (1988) and “JunkBond” (1989) thus reinstating content. His use of defined or extant symbols differentiated his paintings from the gestural abstraction of the Abstract Expressionists he was exposed to as a child, (however he includs this method of painting) whose paintings were often understood as expressions of the individual personality or psychology of the artist. Because Santoré imported well-known motifs into the compositions of his paintings they can be read as both representational (factories, figures, aircraft, rockets) and as abstract patterns, curators and collector’s characterize his choice of subjects as freeing him from decisions about composition. Santoré has remarked: “What’s interesting to me is developing an interconnected visual language and exploring common element across various narratives and composition. “It’s not all mine, rather I don’t own it, or, that the visual language I use is repeated and abstracted further and furthe is the process.” He states “the mind already knows and challenges the viewer to relearn what they recognize.” He also often used painted reliefs in his paintings which challenge typical conceptions of paintings as two-dimensional. Santoré often uses oil, oil stick, encaustic and military and industrial enamels as a painting method to create multidimensional, textured surfaces in his painting.
Santoré also produces intaglio & giclée prints, steel sculptures and lithographs. Santoré has worked in a variety of printmaking techniques to investigate and develop existing compositions. Initially, lithography suited Santoré and enabled him to create print versions of the visual language that filled his early work paintings. Robert is 5th generation Texan having spent his early years in the United Kingdom as an “air force brat”, and his formative years growing up in Southern California beach towns; Huntington Beach, Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, California. He was accepted into the prestigious UCLA Film School but chose instead to focus on contemporary art and attended Parsons School of Design in New York as well as the Otis Art Institute of Parsons School of Design in Los Angeles, CA and later attended the University Of California at Irvine. Robert began creating large scale works of art & editions from his downtown Los Angeles loft before leaving school. His first solo painting exhibition was held at the Jerry Solomon Gallery in Los Angeles, CA in November 1986 and sold out. Santoré has had solo exhibitions sponsored by the City Of Los Angeles, Security Pacific Bank/The Los Angles Museum of Contemporary Art, The Los Angeles Municipal Art Collection, The Jerry Solomon Gallery in Los Angles, The Brenden Walter’s Gallery in Santa Monica California and The Portfolio Gallery of Fine Art in Beverly Hills, California and has participated in many group shows & exhibitions both in the United States and internationally. Robert is in the permanent collections of The Newport Harbor Art Museum, The Laguna Beach Museum of Contemporary Art and the San Jose Museum of Art and is in many private and notible corporate collections.
Robert, an avid surfer to this day, also embraced competitive alpine skiing as a teen and was selected by the United States, Jr. National Alpine Ski Team (US Ski Team B Team). He continues to enjoy travel to both the South Pacific and Europe in particular, where he is able to satisfy his love of both sports, new experiences & continued exposure to classical and contemporary art, sculpture and architecture. After many happy years in the Berkshire Mountains in Western Massachusetts, he returned to Manhattan where he concluded a career as an award winning creative director and user experience strategist. In 2018 Robert returned to Texas to the property held by his family since 1818 and continues painting in earnest and splits time between his Texas Art Ranch and his Manhattan loft in Soho. Robert has had the great fortune of meeting many other celebrated artists starting with Andy Warhol, Keith Haring & Jean Michel Basquiat while still a student at Parsons. Others artists he has admired and met are Jim Dine, Ed Ruscha, Ed Moses, Robert Longo, Billy Al Bengston, Larry Bell, Craig Kauffman, Chuck Close, Julian Schnabel, Eric Fischl et al. Robert is currently working in oils, watercolor and gauche, egg tempura, and producing sculptures in steel and wood. Santore is an extremely versatile artist & craftsman who brings his myriad of experiences and his unique vision of life and beauty to his remarkable works of art Santoré traveled extensively through Europe and the South Pacific his current work focusing on the juxtaposition of experience, events and memories from his travels.
