whoa, i really didn't care about not being able my F&T post, but this is fucking ridiculous. i used to like this place.

i meant to include ... that editorial is beautiful, modelskinny. including the outtakes. and especially the first.
 
^ lol yea i almost ALWAYS edit everyone one of my posts at least once =/

true about marc telling the press. not usually surprised by anything he does ( pajamas on the catwalk, see through comme des garcon shirtdress ) but i must say him choosing miley was a bit surprising... that ol saying comes to mind, "there is no such thing as bad publicity"

kate moss turned 40 today.

amazing pics in both of those links. the hologram is neat as well. works well with how flow-y the dress is. almost like a candle flame.

i've been waiting for an excuse to post this....

lots of pretty spring '14 couture collections on tumblr lately. another post. this is just more adoring lindsey...

kate was absolutely adorable. ICON.

dude, lindsey fucking slayed the runway at atelier versace. just wow.

i like the hood too, supposedly a nod to grace jones to me they gave the collection a futuristic, arab-esque type vibe. overall i liked it =)

was just browsing dior couture. after the dramatic showmanship of galliano i just don't know what to think. it's pretty, tho that isn't really a compliment. its kinda weird, a house where galliano was there longer than christian dior himself, reinvented with raf and his take on modern couture. just personally even the homme line (raf doesn't design for) its all just nice and wearable now. maybe a change where it seems customers want more understated luxury and not obnoxious logos, *cough LV*

gotta say highlight so far has been thom browne, his menswear collection was so cool. fantasy, whimsical, head pieces by stephen jones, some 2 dimensional absurd shit a la comme des garcon fall 2012. http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2014MEN-TBROWNE

also junya watanabe mens was another highlight. http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2014MEN-JNWATNBE

really cool history, cultural background about junya and his patchwork, it comes from "boro"
Literally translated as rags or scraps of cloth, the term boro is also used to describe clothes and household items which have been patched-up and repaired many times.
i like how the word "boro" sounds like borrow, kinda fits the meaning.

chanel just started... im seeing some pics of elbow/kneepads... lagerfeld what have you done this time lol. o' god a chanel fanny pack. :?

pre show selfies with xiao wen and ming xi
 
that gif had me shaking my head last night. with a smile. chanel really likes her. can't wait to see the show.

at first i was kinda taken aback at what appears to be literally no heels. but holy smokes, those detail shots of the sneakers are shocking. i bet they make you so good at tennis.

fuck obnoxious logos and the customer.

trying to avoid too many pics before chanel uploads the show, but that's a joke. chanel casts so fucking well; it's always in my track tags. cool hair...

Yves Saint Laurent (movie -2014)

Good movie for those who are interested in the little Prince of Haute Couture. Lots of gay love and drugs snorted.

Watch for another biopic about him coming late 2014, named the same, made by a film auteur. Expect lots of bizarre/drug induced images. Looking forward to also watching it.
 
been watching some of the spring couture shows. i love chanel's, but i'm getting sick of karl's taste in nonsense accessories. no more stupid leather gloves. knee and elbow pads? why man.

miu miu's campaign video is out...



at least it has elle fanning in pretty clothes. love a bow in place of a clasp.


not all campaign videos suck...

https://vimeo.com/45075561

the above two are better examples of what miu miu wanted.

i'd seen a few on tumblr, but not the full editorial or any attribution. it's a cool editorial. lindsey's versatile. she's made it from mid-teen runway explosion to well established. she does good stuff; i don't see her wasting time with cash-churning catalogue work. she's after cool projects. if today has supermodels, she's one of them. she has doll and bitch down. she doesn't play it too safe; she always has been branching out. i think she can push it much further.

haven't had good reason to post her in this thread until now, but i've been all about this little model laneya grace. she's in a avacii music video. it's given her modeling career a boost in the right direction. she was just photographed by dani brubaker...

for Collezioni Bambini. i've never seen the bambini version, but Collezioni's couture issues are amazing. way too expensive, so i just page through at the store.

can't find clothing credit further than vintage pieces from shona patterson. that said, that newspaper top sure reminds me of what i thought was armani junior in the mackenzi shoot for L'Officiel Enfant by brubaker. now i'm thinking just the shirt is armani. and that the fancier stuff is galliano. the pants in this editorial sure look like they say galliano. not the winner anyway. that shirt and the little dress & jacket outside of the nsfw are adorable. i bet the dress is vintage. safe to say the shirt is versace.

oh, and styled by ellie lines.

http://modellove.tumblr.com -- really pretty girls in really pretty clothes.

http://emelieberg.tumblr.com -- some random stuff, but a fashion blog. also pics of french stars like jane and léa.

http://herlegscouldsolveworldhunger.tumblr.com -- likes gritty, skinny, young. lots of 90s. lots of kate.

http://rovrsi.tumblr.com -- good stuff. plenty of editorial, and lots of runway and detail.

http://bienenkiste.tumblr.com -- a relatively new follow. pleased so far.

just saw this on http://tumblr.oystermag.com

"ManiaMania have searched the world for their AW14 muse and found it in modern day fairy nymph, Lindsey Wixon, who channels Stevie Nicks in the Sydney label's new campaign film. An expression of the mystical, metaphysically feminine, the 'Solstice' collection seeks to represent the transcendental and otherworldly through a spellbinding display of necklaces, ring and other decorative pieces that pay tribute to the Midsummer Eve. We asked designers Tamila Purvis and Melanie Kamsler about the inspiration behind their soon-to-be-released range."

http://oystermag.com/mood-boards-maniamania-aw14-solstice

sweet campaign vid and feelin the accessories as well =)
 
made my morning! crazy that a collection can have such a spectrum of hideous to beautiful jewelry. i gotta watch 15 more times. i didn't allot for that in my morning. lindsey's "a modern day fairy nymph"? she does a great job of playing one in this video. and in the Self Service video. i dunno. she walks hard. maybe in that she's humanoid, but hardly human. young goddess.
 
yea man, when i saw it, i remembered the response you made when i mentioned seeing a darker side in the numéro #150 cover/ed
lindsey's versatile... if today has supermodels, she's one of them.
so true, off to a great start in 2014. since i started following, to me it seems like it went coco rocha>karlie >joan smalls>cara now lindsey doing it real big. tho it could just be what i kinda tend to gravitate towards, personal taste... and what i choose to pay attention to, heh.

feel you on the time management issues lol, 24 hours in day... i need four more.

Yves Saint Laurent (movie -2014)

Good movie for those who are interested in the little Prince of Haute Couture.
woops missed this post, last one on previous page. good to see a new poster here lol. but yea, will def give it a viewing when i get the chance. whoever casted the actor to portray him nailed it, looks just like him. still amazes me he was head designer at dior when he was only 21 years old. talented ? nah... GENIUS.

great YSL documentary from a couple years back http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1606382/
