This is not a book. This is a Louis Vuitton-ictionary with all things relevant in art, fashion and architecture. The world according to Louis Vuitton is presented to you by Camille Sherrer with audio by Darko Fitzgerald. And if you think this project is lovely and heartmelting, just take a look at Camille’s graduation work: [...]

Another Brigitte Bardot-type pictorial! What a wonderful, new way to celebrate the fashion debuts of Georgia May Jagger for the ad campaign of denim brand Hudson. She may be only 17-year old, but Georgia May takes on the footsteps of Brigitte Bardot under Meisel Testino’s photographic directions. I understand she can make denim look good, [...]

Grey Vetiver. Fall 2009. A simple, egocentric ad campaign focusing on the man behind the brand. This is [...]

And (supposedly) without plastic surgery. It’s a double edge! For one you can see that Kate Moss is 100% human, as we all. She’s got wrinkles, freckles, spots and sunscreen meant nothing to her. But then, she landed three relevant magazines covers for the September Fall Fashion Issues (Vogue UK, Vogue Russia, W). Is there [...]
