Top model Lara Stone is back in the pages of Vogue Poland, posing in a large fashion story ‘The Return Of An Icon’. Simply stated, that’s great news because Lara Stone is sorely missed in fashion world.

“What if we stopped treating clothes like rags?”

Michał Zaczyński is looking for an answer to the question why we do not respect clothes. In the essay "What if we stopped treating clothes like rags?" he writes that the contempt is primarily due to a lack of knowledge, experience and poor PR: "If we knew how much work it takes to create a dress, and had an idea of the complexity of the process, we would not treat it so condescendingly."
