Now that has the Kaiser written allover! Stiff, dark, geometrical. Shot by Karl Lagerfeld himself, this Fendi Fall Winter 2008 2009 attracts me not in such a strong way, I can hardly describe it! I really don’t get the point of making such cold lifeless advertising. It’s supposed to make zombies buy clothes and bags? [...]

If they wouldn’t have wrote Dolce & Gabbana I would’ve swore on a Prada or Miu Miu.. Oh, well… So here’s Caroline Trentini for the Eyewear D & G campaign. Steven Klein focused on the eyes, it’s easy to see but the province solitaire teacher-like pose has me a bit disappointed. Does it look good [...]

It’s a Mert and Marcus Affair. And look at that Indiana Jones flavor written allover the photo! It’s like a new Indy was on the way this year! Not too different from the DK spring-summer campaign… I like the old-look, I like the kinda laid-back attitude, I strongly dislike the bags. It’s like a dawn [...]

There’s something Onassis-like in this Craig McDean picture. And it’s not just the seventies color, the structure and perfect composure of the silent photo. It’s Daria too.

“Lay me down in a bed of ….” Handbags. Axl should’ve thought about that when he wrote that Guns’n’Roses song line. Or at least if he didn’t , Mulberry sure did! Because their Fall Winter 2008 2009 Ad Campaign features Natasa V and Iselin Steiro photographed by Steven Meisel among Mulberry Bags. Could it be [...]

I love how they stuck to their style ever since Kate Moss. I don’t even have to judge the jeans presented in the ad, they’re simply, black and white CK! I have a problem with the presentation, however. Abbey Lee, Agnete and Gordon photographed by Steven Meisel. Now that gay marriages are a legal matter, [...]

Now that everyone and his dog knows how the LV monogram looks like, Louis Vuitton is taking the bling road. A diamond logo parure with gems in the form of the brand’s monogram motif: a three-strand necklace ($2,8 million) with articulated platinum and diamond-bow closures, a 6.25 carat diamond ring with monogrammed side bands ending [...]

I guess designers are looking for a way to escape the overcrowded world of clothes-makers ever since this celeb-frenzy. The most talented Nina Ricci’s Olivier Theyskens is going photographer. He will create the look book for the Nina Ricci resort collection. I’m impatiently looking forward for a series of photos by Theyskens! Wouldn’t you say [...]
