Givenchy Fall/Winter 2012-2013 Campaign By Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott

Riccardo Tisci, whose shows for Givenchy often feature bone-shuddering electronic music, has decided to portray the euphoric energy of a rave party in the French house’s fall campaign, featuring model Stella Tennant. “It is about happiness and the freedom of expressing yourself with your body. It shows a dynamic, happy and fun world, which is what fashion needs,” the designer told WWD about the fractured images. “Stella represents modernity, elegance, masculinity and femininity at the same time, together with a dynamic, energetic beauty.” Joan Smalls, Stef van der Laan, Daniela Braga, Simone Nobili, Jarrod Scott and Rodrigo Braga are the other “new stars of the Givenchy gang” who join the party with Tennant, Tisci added. Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott photographed the ads, with styling by Carine Roitfeld. Courtesy of labdailyblog.com

Bruce Weber Directs Simon Nessman for Giorgio Armani’s Acqua di Giò Essenza Short Film

 Intense Fresh­ness–Back in 1996, Ital­ian designer Gior­gio Armani cre­ated a mas­cu­line fra­grance, named Acqua di Giò, that instantly became a hit world­wide. Six­teen years later, the evoca­tive island of Pan­tel­le­ria, Sicily, is once again the main inspi­ra­tion behind Acqua di Giò Essenza, the lat­est inter­pre­ta­tion of Acqua di Giò. The power of the sea and the clear blue sky of the Sicil­ian island inspired the designer to cre­ate this sen­su­ous and intense eau de par­fum, and to trans­late into images these inspi­ra­tions, pho­tog­ra­pher Bruce Weber cap­tured and directed Ford Europe model Simon Ness­man in a styl­ish black & white cam­paign. Cap­tured in a lonely and unpol­luted beach, the Cana­dian model plays the role of a con­tem­po­rary Apollo, deliv­er­ing intense close-​​ups and vir­ile poses, that per­fectly fit with the con­cept of this new eau de par­fum. /​ For more infor­ma­tion, visit http://www.armanibeauty.com/ Courtesy of - thefashionisto.com

Summer In The City

Summer in the city and it feels so radiant! Just ask legendary British photographer David Bailey who displays the perfect color piece for this time of season, White! The year was 1975, but thirty-five plus years later demonstrates how both fashion and mother nature are two of thee most antiquated yet classical form known to man.


"The 60s have never ended."

Rumor: Are Victoria Beckham And Sarah Jessica Parker Collaborating On A Fashion Line?

This would be an interesting collaboration if it is indeed the full truth. But these two fashionable ladies seem to be doing more then ok on their own so we take a gander at a rumor over at fashionista.com.

File this under sounds-way-too-good-to-be-true-but-oh-man-we-really-hope-it-is: We’ve seen a few internet reports saying that Victoria Beckham and Sarah Jessica Parker are apparently in “secret talks” to collaborate on a line. Well, maybe not so secret–obviously someone’s let the cat prints out of the bag. Reportedly, the two fashion icons are teaming up on a collection aimed at women ages “20-50″–though there’s no word yet on why, when, or how. Here are a few of our guesses: Why? Because it would be amazing. When? Hopefully sooner rather than later. How? We don’t know… Please, fashion gods, just let this be true!

The origins of this rumor are dubious at best. Grazia got the story from Entertainment Wise, which got the story from… Well…

It’s not like a fashion collaboration would be totally out of the blue. SJP had her short-run over at Halston Heritage (and lest we forget, Steve & Barry’s!), and VB has famously and very successfully transformed herself from Posh Spice to WAG to world-renowned fashion designer. And with such contrasting personal styles, the collection’s outcome would be totally exciting and unpredictable. Let’s just say that crazier things have happened. Did anyone really think Hedi would alter YSL? Exactly. We’ve reached out to Beckham’s publicist for comment and will update with whatever news we hear back.
