Renaissance man — the 21st century Renaissance has decidedly lower standards — James Franco stepped behind the camera to film 10 vignettes for Seven for All Mankind‘s spring campaign, starring Lily Donaldson and a host of other dubiously multi-hyphenated artist-actor-models.

Coco Rocha jiggied her money maker for the homeless. At Artwalk‘s auction for the Coalition for the Homeless, Coco told the audience of heavy-wallet-weights that if they continued to donate after the auction was over, she’d get up and do her famous Irish Jig. Unlike the pleas of hosts Alec Baldwin and Richard Gere, this offer spurred rapid fire donations. Within 60 seconds, the “Emergency Feeding Fund” was up to $35,000! That’s $583 a second! See the Coco Rocha’s Jig here.

Stella McCartney S/S 2009.
Ed Ruscha's "The End" circa 1991.
Recently speaking of collaborations, here is one that I wait for in immense anticipation. No, we’re not talking Jill Sander for Forever 21 or anything like that, we’re talking about the collaboration of fashion designer Stella McCartney and pop artist Ed Ruscha (well known for the 20th Century Fox logo). Grab your calendars, because October 23rd at 10PM marks the date and time that Iconoclasts airs their documentary “Stella McCartney + Ed Ruscha” on the Sundance Channel.
Lucky for me, I was able to take a look at the documentary before the premier, and let me tell you, it is was completely worth watching! Unlike many documentaries, the subjects Stella and Ed actually tell their own creation stories, explain their relationship and pitch ideas to one another for an upcoming collaboration line. I really appreciated the behind the scenes footage of Stella at fittings and Ed explaining inspiration for paintings. And by the looks and sounds of the the McCartney/Ruscha collaboration line, I’ll definitely be keeping my eyes peeled for it!
My only criticism is that the documentary ended with Ruscha accept McCartney’s pitches for the collaboration. What! We don’t get a sneak peek of the line? Just throw the dog a bone already would you!
Visit Iconoclasts for photos, videos and more about the collaboration! Thanks for the photo Style!
