This team of set builders were being kindly and meticulously directed by Stefan Campbell, the man responsible for translating Michael Bastian‘s collection into a three dimensional space that garners an emotional reaction from the audience before the clothes hit the runway.  Earlier this week, he removed the front row so Chadwick Bell could have a 14 foot-wide glowing fuchsia runway instead of seven. Today, he’ll be scenting Michael Bastian’s show with Aedes. After speaking with Stefan today, we can confirm that he knows the tricks to making a runway show magical. See Stefan Campbell’s secret tips and advice at the end of the interview. And we’ll go see the show now. 

INTERVIEW: Creative Director Stefan Campbell Makes Magic at Michael Bastian

Michael Bastian’s set is looking natural, but a little bit lavish. 

I love that you used the word lavish!

How does your aesthetic change between a show with the classic American prep of Michael Bastian versus some of the more wild designers?

It was important to give Michael Bastian a refined look, as soon as people walk in the door. They’re used to him being a little big sporty, but this season it’s very refined. I approach all my shows with same intensity. People always ask, what has been your favorite show? They all become your babies when you’re in the middle of making them. It’s a constant evolution from the minute you have the idea till the lights go on.

What past experience led you to being the Creative Director on so many top shows like Jason Wu, Alexander Wang, and now Michael Bastian?

I come out of the fashion magazine world. I was a fashion editor for many many moons. I always felt my job was not just get people excited by the clothes, but to almost make the clothes feel legendary within the picture. I was coming up in an era where we were making clothes famous.

Rag & Bone had four gorgeous models style and photograph themselves for the latest ad campaign. After hiring Edita Vilkeviciute, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Sasha Pivovarova and Lily Aldridge, the brand must have saved a bundle without a photographer and stylist. The verdict? Really hot ads that are selling me every thread.

Well, it seems that a little sparkly number from Balmain is giving it a run for its money this fall.

This Balmain Dress Gets AroundThis gold dress, originally worn by Anja Rubik in Balmain’s fall 2010 show, has landed six major covers–and it’s graced some more fabulous supermodel bodies. Claudia Schiffer dons it for Zeit‘s 40th anniversary issue, Natalia Vodianova gets her turn on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar UK for December, Cindy Crawford takes it to Vogue India October 2010…then Abbey Lee for German Vogue in August, Toni Garrn on Spanish Vogue‘s November cover, and it finally lands on Anna Dello Russo for the new fall issue of 10. (Not a model, but hey, she’s got the bod.)

This Balmain Dress Gets Around

Either we’ve got déjà vu, or this Balmain sparkler is theeee dress of choice for those blessed with supermodel height and a tiny waist. So which of these hot, skinny broads rocked it best?

“Terry doesn’t force girls to do anything they don’t want to. He puts you in a G-string in a pile of mud because you want to do it. You touch yourself because you want to. For me, that shoot was the truth about how things were between us both, and I felt good doing it. I’m not ashamed of it — why should I be?”

Chicks on bikes. Is there anything greater?

In this video, Abbey Lee Kershaw sexes it up in slow-mo on a very sexy crotch rocket. Everything about this screams sex, but something about Abbey’s childlike glances makes me feel a visit from Chris Henson is in order for anyone who watches this video.

Expect to see more of Abbey’s motor talents in the upcoming issue of Pop Magazine.

“My dog, Puffy. The dog is the perfect portrait subject. He doesn’t pose. He isn’t aware of the camera.” -Patrick Demarchelier’s answer to the question “Your favorite portrait?” asked by Time Magazine for “10 Questions For Patrick Demarchelier

Cameron Russell, Du Juan, Lakshmi Menon, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Bianca Balti and Constance Jablonski are the 6 stars of a beauty editorial titled “Making Waves” in Allure Magazine’s October 09 issue. Shot by legendary photography phenom Patrick Demarchelier, the photos are FIERCE. The hairstyles (the real stars of the editorial) and makeup are reminiscent of the 80s. One of the beauties sporting loose curls reminds me of the “The Breck Girl” while another has Jessica Rabbit-esque waves. The makeup is bold and bright, just how I like it. Overall a fabulous spread…

Do We Officially Have a Martyr for the Anos of the World?
Abbey Lee Kershaw Faints At McQueen. Do We Officially Have a Martyr for the Anos of the World?

This weekend, Australian model Abbey Lee Kershaw fainted on the runway of Alexander McQueen. The industry is blaming a tight corset for causing the problem, but I feel this is just another notch on the belt of insiders who are looking to enforce stricter rules on the fashion industry. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for healthy body images on the runway, but I feel it’s a bigger problem than just making sure size 4 girls hit the catwalk.

Here’s what happened according to Frockwriter.

“When she was coming to the end [of the runway], back near the [entrance] ramp, I could tell she was having difficulties, because her steps were getting shorter and shorter, they were more like baby steps. I was reading her face and I could see ‘struggle’ all over it and I was thinking, ‘She’s not going to make it’. But then she made it to the top of the animals and I thought she was OK, that’s why I turned my back on her to to go back to the main room.

Of course, now Abbey Lee will become the poster child for anorexia (if no one has made this claim yet, let us be the first to speculate) and she will be asked to come onto a couple of news stations and magazines will call her for shoots to show that she is in fact (now) healthy and/or is battling a disease which plagues millions of girls. Anything to prevent Alexander McQueen from looking like a designer who makes dresses that are hazardous to your health (if people faint from wearing your garments, you know you’re gonna have a few problems with wholesales). Either way this probably won’t be the last we see from Abbey Lee, who is quickly becoming infamous for her runway snafu’s (she also recently took a tumble on the runway of Rodarte).

Get to know this girl. She’ll either be the next Ali Michael and become a champion for women with eating disorders everywhere, or she’ll become the next Agyness Deyn and will hit the covers of magazines everywhere in an attempt by the industry to prevent this “faint” girl from casting a bad shadow on the house of McQueen.

Want to see a healthier version of Abbey Lee, check out this shoot from 10 Magazine…
