About
Fade to…huh?
Grey. #C5C5C5 is the hex code for a shade of grey. The hex-reference in the name is also our way of paying homage to one of our favourite sites, the now closed-down welove.ff017d.com – a fabulous design site dedicated to everything pink. Also, the fade part stands for fashion/art/design/etc – the main focus of this blog. Clever, no?
So, why grey? Visage-fans?
Not really, although we do dig 80’s synth. We just couldn’t find any good song titles that mentioned any of our favourite colours, so we went for grey – since it sounds cool and stuff (or at least we think it does). No way we were gonna call it “ladyin.E3170D.com” or “0000EE-monday.com”
So, who are you guys?
Currently there’s two of us. Qing works as a fashion designer for a major UK fashion label, whilst Awais is a fashion designer-turned-PR-robot working for a global PR company. They both met in fashion school and have been friends ever since.
…and where are you based?
In Oslo and London. We like to travel though, so at times you might find us in places like Beijing, Houston, Lahore or New York.
I have an idea for something you could write about…
Great, we’d love to hear from you! For questions or suggestions, please send an email to info [at] c5c5c5 [dot] com
