﻿IT GIRL Grimes
Both the life and style of Claire Boucher are best described as nomadic. The punk-pop pixie, better known as Grimes [?] the varied satorial virtues of bowl cuts from Montreal, masks made from spiked bandanas in Beijing, ancient-looking kimonos picked up in Tokyo's Harajuku district, and "a giant gold Versace chain that Donatella gave me" she says "It's very Miami, and it's the coolest thing I own." Another prized possession? The black cowboy hat she brandishes around Los Angeles, where she is receding the follow-up (due out in October) to her hit 2012 album Visions. "It's very Johhny Cash, "Grimes explains, "and it justifies any outfit. "Even when dressed by the designers she tends to inspire - Nicolas Ghesquière, for one, who invited her to both this year's Met Gala and Louis Vuitton's cruise collection in Palm Springs two days later, where she also DJ'd the after - party Grimes is always herself. On the whole, it's a catholic mix one could call DIY couture.
The same applies to her music (last year, she scrapped an entire unreleased album --- "It sucked," she's said, to the point as ever), her videos (she directs most of them), and her burgeoning creative empire, which includes a production company. At once an eccentric intellectual and a budding entrepreneur, Grimes is primed to play on the main stage --- MARK GUIDUCCE
