Normalcy isn't her word






















What am I supposed to say about Tilda? She is the woman that every girl secretly wants to be: she's a great commercial actress with series of avant-garde movies, dressed by avant-garde designers all the while blessed with the kind of other-worldly beauty so rare that makes her look like an alien. You can tell that you know her from as the icy queen from Narnia, or you might as well be fooled to believe her as a blonde European woman from Russia who speaks and dressed a la Italian in Io Sono L'amore, but who she really is, is a woman with a degree from Cambridge who leads a pretty distinct life you wouldn't understand it at first. She might look so pale it's like seeing a dead body, and maybe she is so weird it's hard to guess why she does what she's doing, but that's what happens to artists; whatever they do, they do it for the sake of art. If Florence Welch is the love child between music and fashion, then if fashion has a mistress called movie, their love child would be named Tilda Swinton. I just love the way she dressed, the way she speaks and carries herself to the public, and most of all the projects she chose... It's hard to label her whether commercial or avant-garde. It's so hard to describe Tilda Swinton.
