A campaign starred by Naomi Campbell, shot by Inez & Vinoodh and done for AW08. What is it? Only the seductive Yves Saint Laurent advertisement by Stefano Pilati. It’s one of my favourite campaigns ever… that’s why it’s a #TBT.
Campaign
#TBT: Versace AW 1998 Campaign
It’s Thursday and here is the Versace campaign by Steven Meisel starring Carolyn Murphy, Maggie Rizer and Guinevre Van Seenus! The photographs got that disturbing, romantic mood that make the models look so strong and brave. This campaign is a timeless masterpiece.
Kenyan Cool
Karen Walker did the most outstanding campaign of SS14 campaigns. The Visible Collection was inspired and styled by Kenyan artisans. What’s best, the eyewear is presented not on typical models, but on local, Kenyan people who really know how to wear these glasses… Matched with braids, African jewellery and colourful attitude, the collection’s sale will go on Kenyan fundaution that will help improve the schools and things needed there. I simply can’t get enough of this.
Paris: Crazy About Dior
Paris is crazy about Dior! First of all, they opened a pop-up store on Rue du St. Honore with cosmetics and perfumes; then because of Christmas and New Year, they hang a huge, shiny chandelier above the entrance to Avenue Montaigne’s store… and also changed the store’s windows into Resort 2014! The windows show the models wearing the colourful dresses and bags with a backround made of cut-out texture, presenting the daily life of Parisians- through windows.
And if you feel it’s not enough, then here is your SS14 Campaign preview of Dior. Stella Tennant (the new star of the Parisian maison) looks as always amazingly good, and the dress, bag and shoes designed by Raf Simons… simply beautiful. Dior really got Paris in it’s hands!
N.1 Collection AW13 Celine
Autumn Winter 2013 has a N.1 collection that beat all others- it’s of course Celine! No one else could be better than this Parisian label. With it’s geometrical tops, changing forms skirts, fur dresses and up-the-knee leather boots, Phoebe Philo’s collection just couldn’t be a un success. The triangle handbags in checks or leather look very refreshing, just as the creme pistachio coloured coat! And the grey dress with tied sleeves in the front is more a conceptual art, than a casual costume for everyday! The campaign starring Daria Werbowy by Juergen Teller is simple and very sensual- as always beautiful and fragile! Bravo to the winner of AW13!
