Daliah Heeger
occupation: professor of getting to the essence of ideas and voyeur
“You forget sometimes to just do your own thing and not care about what people think of you.” Daliah Heeger
Daliah says that she literally sweats in movies, she gets so lost in them and the imagery. I think what she means though is that she loves the feeling of empowerment that embodying a look or a character, so specifically, brings her. Disguise could be Daliah’s middle name, even though she sees right through the irony of names, words, and pretty much everything else when it comes to what it is that actually defines a person. When my scout for the site was stopped in his tracks upon spotting Daliah, he told her that it was so cool that she was from Vienna, her response was an emphatic “No,” but a very open and warm yes to us shooting her for the site. Getting dressed is Daliah’s “identity envelope – each day you can choose what you want to be.” She loves and hates fashion because she uses her aesthetic to become more of who she is, when “fashion” and it’s blind reverence of homogeneity can make you feel less of who are. At a party, Daliah would rather wear her garish flea market dress and a $3 exaggerated hair piece than fade into the sea of black. She is studying medicine and photography, but doesn’t want to be a doctor, because like everything else, she is most interested in learning. Science, art, philosophy, fashion, it’s all one big experiment in looking for the underlying ideas. If Daliah was just trying to look “pretty,” she feels she would be missing so much, and I couldn’t agree more – sometimes the ugly, weird, and ridiculous can be the pinnacle of great style.
Daliah works as a photographer for Material Girl Magazine and Indie Magazine, a model scout for Tempo Models and co-writes a blog The Pet Fan Club

this is so stupid. why do people think they are special just because they drop the word flea market in nearly every phrase. this girl would probably be on the worst-dressed-ever list but still it’s her style. so, in this case, what does style mean anyway…
i’m not a hater, i’m just fed up with crap and junk being portrayed as cool, innovativ, groundbreaking. it’s not. it’s lame. old story.

I LOVE her hairpieces. The blonde one wrapped around her head is to die for.
but, um, a website about pets?
October 15th, 2009 at 8:21 pm
the site isn’t about stating what is “in” or “out” just what is around. I like some of her stuff but don’t like her attitude about things for some reason. It doesn’t matter! seriously, why do people take fashion seriously……
Her hairpieces make me want to buddy up with her because my dad had a friend that passed away that wore hair like that.

Andy, #6, it’s crap and junk combined with IMAGINATION.
Joy D, #8, if people didn’t take fashion seriously, we wouldn’t have Hubert de Givenchy, Cristóbal Balenciaga, Yves saint Laurent, or Rei Kawakubo.

AMEN, Tay. Maybe Flea Markets aren’t really special, but when you get stuff there, it makes you feel special about it and gives your belongings a story–it’s not like people can just turn off their excitement so they don’t offend you with their “junk” loving. And taking fashion seriously is all relative, baby.

“omg” is so terrible. calling anyone’s style “terrible” is even worse though.
