The Fashion Behind ‘The Artist’

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

They’re sweeping up at the award shows and stealing everyone’s hearts, and the cast of The Artist is shining under a spotlight that grows brighter each day. But behind the Oscar nod for Best Picture (among many other nominations it has received) is that killer fashion from the 1920s — flapper, avant garde, art deco glam. And The Artist isn’t alone – think about how Midnight in Paris, Boardwalk Empire and soon enough The Great Gatsby are full of 1920s fashion glam. Here are a few ways to channel it.

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Dior turned to director and purveyor of the angry inch John Cameron Mitchell to inject the staid fashion film formula with some much-needed schtick for its latest short, L.A.dy Dior. Marion Cotillard does what she does best — cry and act hysterical, but this time sans the gravitas — as a tortured actress named Margaux on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Glee Recap Episode 2.7: When It Rains, It Paltrows

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

“The Substitute” gave us a pretty horrible plotline but also gave us a reason to finally like Gwyneth Paltrow and some of Sue Sylvester‘s best one-liners to date. Case in point: “Sometimes you gotta give the inmates what they want. You throw ‘em a comb and hope they stop beating each other long enough to whittle it into a shiv.”

Marion Cotillard Gets No Photoshop for Vanity Fair

Edited by Saynt

I know people stress the need for less photoshop, but when you see a star like Marion Cotillard looking tired and haggard on the cover of Vanity Fair you start to wish they did a few touch ups. Bruce Webber shot the star but forgot to do any post production. Guess he’s only used to perfect faced 19 year olds.

Interview Needs An Infusion Of Inspiration

Edited by The Fashion Web

Clearly, Interview magazine has a bit of a creative issue. The editors seem to be in a slump with their designs because, as the ladies at Fashionista pointed out, more than a few of their recent covers are beyond similar. Instead of switching up their look month to month, the glossy has instead been opting for close-up, black-and-white shots for their covers.
