When Goddess Rules the Sea...

Model: Daria Werbowy
Photographer: Mikael Jansson
Vogue Nippon April 2010
Vogue Nippon seems to get their photo shoots so right every issue. These images of Daria Werbowy are amazing. I've mentioned how much i love lighting...and these pictures are all about the striking use of lighting. The location is incredible, and for once doesn't really play on the whole beach/sea thing! The first image is A.mazing...i want it on my wall, and equally so is the last. The images are full of energy, which is emphasised by the surroundings.
Pure wow.
Also http://www.fashionising.com/ is amazing. i check it probably 10 times a day. Definitly worth checking out!

Topman Design

Lisa and I have officially started our Topman Design project today.
Topman Design was launched in Autumn/Winter 2005 and has become a directional premium collection, stocked online at www.topman.com, the London Oxford Circus and New York Flagships as well as Key international stores including La Foret in Tokyo, Incu in Sydney, and Shine in Hong Kong. With a growing and almost cult following, the collections have evolved over the seasons. Topman Design also features at London Fashion Week, giving them a massive competitive advantage.
Today we made (another!) blog which i may, or may not share ith you!? Definitely excited for this brief, maybe because we get to research men all day long who knows...!? Today we also had a lecture given by Jumana Sodawala, the Senior Buyer and Topman. It was really interesting to find out the behind the scenes process and lead times etc.
I feel like i've learnt alot today...
P.s Happy 100th Post!

Ooooh Tom..

Ohh he's done it again. I think my Crush on Tom Ford has just got a little bit bigger....
This advert is amazing. It screams sex and sophistication; its glossy, cheeky, and practically ticks every box.
It so simple..but somehow tom Ford always gets it completely right. I love the monochrome colour pallet and also how it subtly promotes his new film (which i have to see by the way!)
Pure Amaze.

Louis Vuitton Balloons? ermm wow!
I've been so busy this week. We had our Kickers Presentation today-presenting to 2 guys from Kickers. Went surprisingly well actually? Considering we finished it 2 hours before...but anyways.
So nice to have a night in catching up on all the TV I've missed! Perfect.
Up at 5am tomorrow to go to London for a Nokia Event! Very excited.

Photographer: David Sims
Model: Iselin Steiro
Vogue Paris, March 2010.
erm..wow. I think there's only one word to describe Steiro here..fierce. This shoot shows a whole lot of passion and emotion. The styling is a.mazing. Where do i get me one of those leather jackets in the last image?! It looks like a mass of dirty, grimy Balmain, but oh my does it work.
I love.

Model: Masha Kirsanova
Vogue Italia
This shoot is beautiful. The colours are so subtle in a calming way. Kirsanova's poise and elegance is incredible. Also the location is amazing, it really brings the whole shoot together and everything seems to fit together in such a graceful way.

GaGa

GaGa strips for this months Q magazine. OK, so the images aren't exactly exciting or inspiring but Lady GaGa is everywhere. I've always had kind of mixed feelings about Ms GaGa. I can't work out whether i love her or i cant stand her. Her music...i love. I suppose i admire her confidence and style. She doesn't care what anyone thinks but has this gone too far? remember that crazy weird all in one lace thing?
I think the moral of the story is.. she is literally crazy.
