On why she doesn’t consider herself a fashion designer: “I’m not really a fashion designer. I just love clothes. I’ve never been to design school. I can’t sketch. I can’t cut patterns and things. I can shorten things. I can make a dress out of a scarf.” (more…)

Ring in the new year with Victoria Beckham on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar shot by Peter Lindbergh. I don’t know about you, but I’m getting this prepubescent teenage boy vibe from her…I’m thinking it’s the short hair combined with the baby-face and bony body. Cute? Yes. Glamorous? Ehhh…
Marion Cotillard stars in the new campaign for Lady Dior handbags. The imagary of the ad is described in WWD;
“Perched on top of the Eiffel Tower, its intricate metalwork echoing the canework pattern on the iconic tote, Cotillard posed for photographer Peter Lindbergh wearing an enigmatic expression — and a sexy black number by John Galliano from the spring collection.”
The spots are slated to break at month’s end in France and the U.K. and are the first in a four-part series, with Paris being only the first city and chapter. Further details about her next adventure, and what precious cargo she’s carrying, are to be revealed on a forthcoming Web site: LadyDior.com, which is set to go live in mid-November. The campaign will run twice a year.
The August issue of Bazaar contains a “Fashion Olympics” spread by Peter Lindbergh featuring Lucy Liu. These images have gotten much controversy from the public, stating that this is mockery of the Olympic games. Since the games are in China, the photographer choose Queens born Lucy Liu as the star of his spread, which has made many people unhappy. Some say the photospread is dumb, using a movie star to convey the emotions of an athlete while wearing Louboutin heals and holding $3100 Gucci bags. I happen to disagree, I think these images are an ode to the Olympic games and actually pay homage to the athletes who dedicate their lives to sports. Obviously, the shoot was staged, and wearing heals while running races is impossible, that’s why you have to look beyond the pretty pics and realize that the photographer was making a statement.
