THE INNER-VIEWS OF FASHION: Fashion Blogger Susie Bubble

My Fashion Life caught up with fashion blogger Susie Bubble, of Style Bubble to see what she’s been up to (besides recently beginning work for Dazed & Confused)..check it out!
–
My Fashion Life: This morning you woke up
Susie Bubble: And had a very very strong leaning towards frayed denim. Cheesy frayed denim to be precise.
MFL: How would you describe your style?
SB: Eclectic and ever-evolving.
MFL: What does a normal working day for you consist of?
SB: Staring at the screen for hours on end pondering the meaning of various URL’s.
MFL: What other fashion blogs would you recommed?
SB: Luxirare.com,Diane Pernet’s blog,Gnarlitude,Foxyman,Style Lines,Tavi… the list goes on…
MFL: Fashion tip for the season?
SB: Replace the fashion tips with PG-Tips?
MFL: What’s your super power?
SB: The ability to drink copious amounts of tea…
MFL: What’s your party trick?
SB: Turning up overdressed. Everytime.
MFL: Who or what has been your greatest fashion influence?
SB: The movements of the sun and whether it decides to show its face…
MFL: If you owned a shop, what would it be called?
SB:Verbal Diarrhea
MFL: If you could be dressed by anyone, who would it be and what would you have them put you in?
SB: Surely if they were dressing me, they would be in charge of what to put me in? I’ll leave the task in the hands of Camille Bidault Waddington who has exceedingly good taste…
MFL: Who are your favourite emerging designers and what is it that you love about them?
SB: Louise Gray’s unexpected mix of different elements, Sandra Backlund’s immense sense of shape, Mary Katrantzou’s unique stance on prints, and Jeremy Laing’s stealthy cool.
MFL: What item of clothing (if any) do you wish that more of us wore?
SB: Hats.
MFL: With blogs and ezines becoming increasing popular, do you think print magazines have a future?
SB: Yes of course – I’ll still be buying them!
MFL: Finally, what’s the one question you wish people asked you but you’ve never had the opportunity to answer? (And what is the answer?)
SB: Do you have wrinkly elbows? Yes…they’re like walnuts.
MFL: Epitaph:
SB: A melting potato of a girl.

FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER: Rankin




If you aren’t already familiar with his stuff, head immediately over to Rankin’s site. You’re bound to find something you recognize (like the shot from Mary Kate and Ashley’s Influence cover), and be unbelievably impressed with his extensive portfolio. Rankin co-launched Dazed & Confused in ‘91 with his business partner, Jefferson Hack, and has continued to shake up the photo world ever since. He’s done dozens of famous ad campaigns (from Nike, to Dove, to Jameson), and shot just about every celebrity (Madonna, Heidi Klum, The Rolling Stones, Kate Moss…), but I was impressed the most by his beauty portfolio, a series of creative shots, crazy makeup , and perfect lighting. Rankin is best known for his intimacy with his subjects, and these up close and personal shots display just that.

SPREAD UM: Psycho Killer

Dazed & Confuzed had an amazing spread on their website/magazine that was 100% inspired by Christian Bale and American Psycho. The shoot is supposed to embody the modern day version of the movie, and it’s pretty badass if you ask me. I wish they would have done something with the ATM and the cat though. Which buy the way, am I the only one who thinks that will happen with any of those sketchy ATM’s that just sit in the middle of the street in NYC?

SPREAD UM: “The Secrets of Stonehenge” Shot by Mel Bles for Dazed & Confused

This spread is pretty rad. Who wouldn’t want to shoot high fashion at the world famous Stonehenge? I adore the black and white theme with two splashes of harsh, menacing colored photos. The garments look great on model Kate Somers; I dig her abrasive glances and stony expressions. The photograph of her wearing a mask while holding onto a tree branch is mind-blowing- whose legs are that long, seriously? The snow looks gorgeous as well, and I ALWAYS hate snow. Christmas in Wiltshire next year folks?

Christopher Kane x Donatella Versace for Versus

20 years after Gianni Versace launched the Versus diffusion line – and five years after the last collection – Donatella Versace has revived the label.
At a presentation in Milan this Sunday, Donatella and collaborator Christopher Kane debuted accessories for Fall/Winter 2009.
Dazed & Confused reported that this year’s line “draws direct inspiration from the back catalog of Versus and includes super high black platform heels with bold diamond detailing, black geometric calfskin bags, chunky bejeweled Chelsea boots and opulent crystal jewelry.” So it seems to be a mix honest to both designer’s styles.
Versus will release men’s and women’s clothing in Spring 2010.
