These two images from the Hermès Spring 2010 Ad Campaign are beautiful. Karlie Kloss amazes me. I remember when she first started and now she is the darling. She takes amazing pictures and she’s improved her runway walk a lot. She’s like Kate Moss in her domination of ad campaigns this season. images: fashiongonerogue.com, thefashionspot.com
Karen Elson is just stunning. I love how her red hair stands out in these gorgeous shots. images: Fashion Gone Rogue
I’m really taken with this Lanvin Spring 2010 ad campaign by Steven Meisel featuring model Jamie Bochert. I really like that that model’s face isn’t visible, it makes the clothing and accessories stand out much more. I can’t wait to see the rest of the campaign. image: the Fashion Spot
I’m dying. Dying over this Rose Cordero as Grace spread in the December/January 2009 of Vogue Paris. If I only had the patience to grow a fade. It would be nice to recreate of these looks. Photographer is Paola Kudacki and the Stylist is Melanie Huynh. images the Fashion Spot
Way back in October I was asked to appear in a TDot TV spot which talked about the Model Behaviour window display at Le Chateau. The tagline is “Famous Runway Icons Immortalized as Mannequins.” The windows are a tribute to those women who broke ground in the industry and changed things like Pat Cleveland, Kate Moss, Twiggy, Tyra Banks and Erin O’Conner. Le Chateau are one of the few retailers in the city that still produce window displays. Thank god for that. I find retail visuals fascinating. Yes, the Holt Renfrew Blogger Windows helped push that fascination to the edge but I had a genuine interest before that. I really would like to see how a project gets put together from beginning to end. It sounds like a lot of fun, looks like a hell of a lot of work and is so creative. I got to speak to senior members of the visual team at length during the shooting. I was enthralled learning about mannequins and one of my favourite photographers, James at Mannequin …
I love this photo of Grace Jones taken by Andy Warhol. If I had some purple fur I would totally do this version of Grace for Halloween. You might remember my outfit last halloween for Fashion sCares. image: nasher.duke.edu

I’ve been called the crazy cat lady a couple of times from friends so it’s pretty fitting that I love this new Lanvin ad campaign. I’m happy with all the shots but I don’t get the Madonna crotch shot effect from Louis Vuitton Spring 2009 that I’m noticing in different campaigns right now. the Fashion Spot
This is an unusual campaign where Raquel Zimmermann plays both a man and the woman. What strikes me most about the campaign in the Dr Martens in image above. Are these the final product? Is this the final product of the hint I posted? If they are, oh boy! images: the Fashion Spot

Givenchy Fall 2009 – 2010 Ad Campaign The Givenchy Fall 2009 – 2010 Ad Campaign hit me hard. I love everything about it. The severe looks and stark background. Love, love, love the lipstick. I’m hoping the rest of the fall offerings are as good as this. images: WWD.com
I wasn’t a fan of Marc Jacobs this year. He redeemed himself with Louis Vuitton. I’m so happy my girl Rose (pictured above) got to walk the show. Yes, Marc. Like the John Galliano show, I have video so I’m not going to bore you with photos. You need to see this stuff in motion. However you can see photos of the full Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 RTW collection at Nymag.com.

I love this picture of Sasha at Miss Sixty. She totally delivering the rock and roll hardass chick look that Miss Sixty is attempting in their Fall 2009 – 2010 collection image: Miss Sixty F/W09.10 New York – the Fashion Spot.
I’m enjoying the Lanvin Spring Summer 2009 Ad Campaign. The clothing is beautiful of course, that goes without saying. I’m loving the whole “cheekily playing in your large changroom before it’s time to go out” vibe that is happening in this campaign. I usually don’t find depictions of narcissism that attractive, but I think the mirror loving Iselin works very, very well. Yup, it’s a Meisel joint. images: Lanvin S/S 09 : Iselin Steiro by Steven Meisel – the Fashion Spot
