^that's a cool pic of her. imagine you've figured it out by now, but it's her in paris for a Vanity Fair shoot.


^a link to more paparazzi pics of the shoot and a video of her hanging out with karl.

so i assume if Karl is there it means that it's Chanel couture she's wearing? certainly looks more like the dior s/s 2012.

the rodarte sisters often use this photographer named autumn de wilde.

she's also showing up a lot on Rookie -- she did the photoshoot for the Rodarte sisters there. I don't really like her style which sadly informs my feelings about Rodarte. that shirt you posted a few pages back looks great. I have simple enough printing set up here and a blank shirt to make that design. I think I might!

found a full and higher quality version of the pic of taylor wearing the mercura sunglasses:

what a great shot!

are we all looking forward to FASHION WEEK?

match made in heaven, the short film is leaning more towards his furniture design which u can see @ http://www.vmagazine.com/2012/02/rick-owens-and-his-magic-mountain/

brilliant choice of music for the Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2012 show

awesome! i'm going to watch the rest of it after i get back from this thing i've got to go to, but i'm honestly a bit weirded out by all this sheer/see through this season. i mean it's fucking everywhere!

even at our beloved american apparel (as modeled by Lana Del Rey):

i'm sorry, maybe my nipples are just too dark for this.

i can say without a doubt that this is my favourite thread on bluelight. thanks guys for making it so awesome <3
 
^it's a goodie! denser than any other thread i can think of; even after this longass post there are still things i want to catch up on and reply to later.

those (wonderful) photos of kirsten are everywhere. in high quality. the name of the shoot, the stylist, the photographer--all that is out. but i cannot find anything about what she is wearing. or any actual scans from the magazine. it must be on shelves? hopefully what designers were worn will soon become easy-find information. anyway, it's an awesome shoot. i particularly like the one of her in the green dress and the one in the blue dress. how the inside folds of the pleats are left un-patterned is very cute. so are the flower-ed heels and the collar-less coat. not my favorite of the photos, but long dress with blue and green flowers is simple, clean, pretty. the bathing suit is ridiculous, but the textured floral design is awesome for what it is and what it is for. almost everything she is wearing is nice. and she looks just as enchanting as enchanted. she usually does.

hydroazuanacaine: came across this and thought of u. i recall you posted the opening ceremony dress Chloe Sevigny designed on the previous page.
chloe is a cool girl. the interview even had a cool tone--thanks for sharing!
…I feel like I want to kick-start my film career again…
good. fuck tv. but she’s 37? damn. there are still (different) roles for her.

that shirt you posted a few pages back looks great. I have simple enough printing set up here and a blank shirt to make that design. I think I might!
if you do, i'd love to see a pic of it! a friend of mine does screen printing and said he'd make it for me. we’ll see--that's the kind of thing that never ends up actually happening.

i'm honestly a bit weirded out by all this sheer/see through this season. i mean it's fucking everywhere!
hellyeah! dresses like grandma’s curtains!

so i assume if Karl is there it means that it's Chanel couture she's wearing? certainly looks more like the dior s/s 2012.
after skimming the video joe posted, i’d say you are correct about it looking like dior s/s.
 
can you find a high res of their logo? i can find RODARTE text, but no heart. if not, i'm fine with just using the text.

this is not big enough for a shirt :(

i haven't really looked it in the eye, but a quick image search does not yield anything usable with the heart. i might just buy the stupid fucking shirt--is it worth 2 8ths? the way everything breaks down in my life. certainly would last longer, just afraid i'd be too nervous to wear it with any cool. what's a t-shirt you can't wipe your mouth on? stupid.

if i find an image file of that logo, i'll be sure to PM you.

well since i get my pot for free, it certainly is NOT worth 50 dollars. i actually went digging through some type face whore blogs and have figured out that they are using a custom font, so I couldn't fuck around and just rebuild the logo in photoshop. i kind of don't care in so far that I like fake looking shit, like the tumblr meme of Chanel ads:

tumblr_lhgdv1O6Kf1qdqhl3o1_500.jpg


tumblr_ljf4adviHo1qb68p2o1_500.jpg


it would be easy enough to just press a black heart over the rodarte text, as long as i could find a big enough version of the text.
 
^that little girl someone famous? that's an awesome photo.

edit:

in my searching i found out that last year rodarte re-made the t-shirt jean seberg wears in godard's Breathless.

of course kirsten has one...
kirsten-dunst-and-rodarte-x-breathless-new-york-herald-tribune-t-shirt-gallery.jpg

rough looking pic. that girl does too much of something.

patricia definitely wears it better. rodarte's version doesn't look as cool either, though much more comfortable i bet.

i am pleased. i had to make a weirdo mashup for the logo (the heart is too fat), and the iron wasn't hot enough for the transfer, but i like the 'fall apart' look :)
 
whoa, that was really quick. well awesome! i like the 'fall apart' look, and it's probably "cool"-er than anything that can be bought. speaking of which, i just went ahead and bought the actual rodarte t-shirt. it's official; fashion has made me an idiot. oh well, next week's mail is gonna be so exciting!

does that little girl not have a known name? google image's "best guess" is kate moss, which i doubt.

weird! i have no idea who that is, and this is the first time i'm seeing the original, i had only ever seen the "chanel ad", and this creepy fucking tumblr i followed called menophilia, which disappeared after awhile, which i suspect because it was posting so much questionable content (girls of a certain non age?) and just all around gross stuff. that photo was her(? his?) icon.

buying the rodarte shirt doesn't make you stupid. there are a few shirts that i'm forcing myself to hold off buying, even though i want them more than anything, because they are 50$+. I'll cave soon enough. How long can you really live without something before you buy it/make it/steal it?

aww, thanks for trying to ease the spending guilt. yeah, clothes are not the worst thing to splurge on. designer t-shirts might not be the smartest thing to give up money for, but never mind the smartest.

the socks totally change everything about that photo imo
am i missing a point of humor, or really? if you're not being sarcastic, how so? like most memes, i totally don't get these chanel ones. once the thing to do was put "thank you based god" on a picture of someone looking up and crying. anna karina got some attention from that one.
 
well mainly because i think feet are gross and the contortion of her body is awkward enough without the feet.

feet. they are gross when not in shoes.
 
i know. i loved it so much it's become the background:
that background is absolutely brilliant

oh all his jackets are brill, im really diggin his stripped down, minimal approach to design. id describe it as "ruthlessly chic"
RICK+OWENS+-+leather+jacket.bmp

also his signature "spine" so simple, so right.

cheers! i slept one day and didn't expect to see as many posts here. jea, yall holdin it down.

no doubt, my fav part of the interview was when she dissed khloe kardashian, i did the freedie mercury pose after reading that bit.

ima watch Kids tonight. i can't wait to see her next series roll in Hit and Miss "Sevigny plays Mia, a contract killer with a secret: She's a pre-op transsexual. Hit and Miss embraces such themes as family, sexual identity and murder." SOLD

hmm, boots are so sexy with a mini dress/skirt. i like the sporty look of that collection, very olympics, skiing in the swiss alps

reading a preview for next ANTM im like:
tumblr_lz92cclOOw1qbmf8z.gif

"there will be 7 American’s (new to the franchise) vs 7 British ladies from Britain’s Next Top Model. They’re calling it “America’s Next Top Model: British Invasion.”

this sounds like it could make for some entertaining t.v.
 
i own very, very, few designer pieces, and i think my prized one is a helmut lang denim jacket. so, i paid special extra special attention to the show this season, incase i ever work up the courage to buy another (overly) expensive piece.

and oh man. the lines, the lines! i love the lines.
