Many of our favorite Indies were out last night including: Sir Ben Kingsley, Shenae Grimes, Famke Janssen, Rebecca Minkoff, Billy Burke, Scott Campbell, Arlenis Sosa, Genevieve Jones, Waris Ahluwalia, Lance Bass, & Sky Ferreira

The exhibition was itself  fantastic.  Some of the films included in the exhibtion were Taxi Driver, The Aviator, & Vertigo. Our personal favorite attraction happened to be costumes from Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. (Featured below)

The exhibition, which will be open to the public (FOR FREE!) starting today until June 19th 2011 at  Center 548 in New York City, celebrates the stories of obsessive craftsmanship behind some of cinema’s most iconic on-screen moments.  It takes 30 manual steps to create the perfect pair of Persol frames and  similarly this exhibit showcases how each instance of what appears on the silver screen  can take hours, weeks or even months of painstaking research and craftsmanship to develop and comes for a place of passion.

For some more art check out this video of Sam & I doing a wave in a flipbook we made at the event (below)

After the success of working with Justice and Kings of Leon, the S2A leather jacket has become a signature piece of S2A.The jackets are composed of leather applications covered in laser etched drawings. The applications are hand sewn using the famous “loop stitch” technique inspired by original Hells Angels members jacket. The jacket “Dead Fucks”, portrays funeral inspired drawings using classic Scott Campbell symbolism. The “Cobra Jacket” shows an extremely intricate drawing of cobra heads intertwined and covering the entire back.

These are ridiculously cool. I mean they scream “BAMF!”

New York based artist Scott Campbell was recruited by Marc Jacobs for the Louis Vuitton SS11 menswear.

Campbell tattooed LV logos all over the runway models necks and he also customized a number of leather bags.

No wonder Marc Jacobs uses Scott Campbell as his personal tattoo artist.

Wow….beautiful bags! Not that the classic Louis Vuitton handbags, should be compromised or marred in anyway, but I think that they should collaborate on a collection of fabulous bags….I’m sure they would be as huge hit!

LINK LOVE:Scott Campbell for Louis Vuitton Spring 2011

Terry Richardson recently snapped a few photos that show off the body art of a few A-listers, the reason? They all were inked by the same guy, Mr. Scott Campbell. Campbell is known for doing the tattoos belonging to Lilly Cole, Marc Jacobs and Leo Fitzpatrick. Now for a fashion icon, I have to say Marc Jacobs has the worst tattoos I have ever seen. He is one tribal tattoo away from looking like a Jersey Shore all star. His body looks like a canvas of drunken mistakes. Thank God he is a fashion designer and can hide himself under some amazing clothes, because otherwise he would get a first row seat in the FAIL! category. It’s okay Marc, just call up Pharell I’m sure he can give you the name of a good place where you can get replacement skin, because that’s what you do when you’re rich and famous.
