Karlie Kloss Numéro 92 April 2008 Issue

I sometimes ask myself what is there left to innovate in fashion… And every now and then, I come across new, so daring things, I can hardly take my eyes out of them. I stare for some time and then ask myself why, from all those potentially wonderful creations left there, I absolutely had to find these atrocities?

Karlie is perfectly fitted for this kind of weirdness so I see no contradiction between her figure and the fork earrings by Tom Binns. Or the silver and Murano glass bracelet by Delfina Delettrez.

Have you noticed recently how music takes over the world? No matter where you turn your head, music is there. Designers consider revolving the job descriptions for the personnel just to take care of their music…

And there’s more! Have you noticed how our fashion experts tend to lower in age? How the young and the restless are living walking and talking fashion and style magazines? Seems like everybody and their dog have a blog or a myspace account to talk about what’s hype and share passion for music and fashion. Now Tommy H. sensed the opportunity there and got his own little Tommy TV online thing. But Tommy’s not your average entrepreneur so he’s collaborating with Sony BMG, delivering the audience live recordings of The Hilfiger Sessions, interviews, and the possibility to upload your own music. Of course this music deed doesn’t go unpunished and the Tommy TV links to the Tommy Hilfiger online (clothing) store.

MTV who? Meet Tommy TV! Do you think this Tommy TV will benefit the Tommy Hilfiger original brand? Like people will come listening to music and buying a t-shirt while they’re there?

For $55 you can sleep on a candy pillow. Or a chocolate pillow. Or cake pillow. It’s like you were sleeping on your favorite menu from Bonjour Mon Coussin.

I can easily imagine how your sweet dreams turn into living nightmares when sleeping on a pillow like this! And how exhausted you must feel after eating candies all night long. And discovering it was all in your head. All that sweet eating thing, it was just a dream… What would the actual purpose of these pillows be? Subversively messaging your brain to see how fast the suicidal rates can be inflated with just a touch of interior decoration?

Today I thought about a new category. A category where you’ll find articles about famous people and their words of wisdom about themselves or about the world or the others. It will be called “Wisdom without moderation”. At first is was Karl Lagerfeld’s turn and now it’s Marc Jacobs.
You know Marc Jacobs. You know his work, his products, his campaigns, his relationships, hence his sexual orientation.

Only this time, for a series of photographs by Maciek Kobielski with Élodie Bouchez (photo session I would otherwise call “long live the blitz”) he talked about something surprising – what he can relate to in the opposite sex. Those of you who had any hopes left, get to find out what Le Marc Jacobs is looking for in a woman.

Do you know those moments when you ask yourself if your car really fits you? Or your bag? Or the shoes you wanted so much to wear that day?

You can never be too careful when choosing your car! It has to represent every inch of your fashionista self, every piece of your highly selected wardrobe! The only thing possibly taking care of this is the world singular fitting room for car shopping! Built by Chevrolet in South London, it has 3 massive mirrors on a curtained wall and the central platform can be revolved 360 degrees to give your so special self a view in what can be your so special car from every angle.

Ridiculously high photoshoped Gwyneth in her oh-so-breathtaking-photoshoot for Vogue. The sidereal appearance is called “Hard Wired” and it’s photographed by Steven Klein.

It has almost nothing to do with Gwyneth (as if we wouldn’t have understood that from the Vogue cover with the allegedly Gwyneth Paltrow…) but shows us the Iron Man surroundings with, by accident, an unearthly Gwyneth as imagined by Vogue. Enjoy the superhero mania!

Since she’s doing some hard work for the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art big spring exhibition, “Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy,” (starting May 7) and sponsored by Italian designer Giorgio Armani, it was only natural that the May edition of Vogue Magazine features some supershoots.

Beginning with the cover, the May issue of Vogue is a on a Superhero spree. Coco Rocha does Poison Ivy with a Nina Ricci Swarovski embellished dress custom made for Vogue,

Blackbook Magazine serves us a fierce-looking Christina Ricci in the May Design Issue. Looking at the pictures couldn’t decide myself if she’s intentionally similar to Posh or it’s just the haircut…

Either way, the Givenchy sandals from the first photo got my heart all melted! And that last photo’s purpose to exist completely eludes me!
