Since I started talking about the new Hollywood wave – you know, the kinds of Ryan Gosling and Michael Pitt here, I just couldn’t leave it to rest without a special mention. One of my favorite young actresses of the moment is Emma Stone. Have you seen Crazy, Stupid Love? (just a random example. With [...]

Yesterday it was about Calvin Klein lingerie, now it’s about CK and the same Lara Stone. Only today she’s not looking as friendly and as inviting as she did yesterday. Oh, no! Au contraire, the new CK Calvin Klein Fall Winter 2011 2012 ad campaign as photographed by Craig McDean is decidedly a reason to [...]

Having seen Karlie Kloss closing the Christian Dior Haute Couture fall 2011 collection the other day reminded me of this first image from her Oscar de la Renta Fall Winter 2011 2012 Ad Campaign.

Celebrating beauty in all its diversity should be mandatory (at least) for the big beauty brands. And I couldn’t be happier with the new Estee Lauder ad campaign featuring Constance Jablonski, Liu Wen and, my personal favorite, Joan Smalls.

Heavy packing, heavy on beauty and fashion, the Hilfigers is a fictional family portrayed in Tommy Hilfiger’s Fall-Winter 2010/2011 ad campaign. Photographed by Craig McDean, the campaign looks lovely with a pinch of bourgeois. I must admit I love the over-the-knee boots, they stand out, regardless the busy imagery. Also, if you’ve seen that the [...]

It seems that the poor man’s Angelina, like our friend, Ellington, has nicknamed our prefabricated doll Megan Fox is getting her closet time, just like the real Angelina does (anyone seen more than one tabloid cover with Brangelina lately?). She’s coming out, however, with an Interview for June/July 2010, looking all different for the cover [...]

Can you believe a magazine photo spread can actually be shot in 18 months? (no, there’s no typo! A year and a half for fashion photographs!) One of my most favorite magazines, AnOther Magazine brought together not only two wonderful photographers (Craig McDean and Hedi Slimane) but also a handful of iconic personalities from Stella [...]
