NOWNESS Takes a Look at 31 Years of Meryl Streep

Lester Brathwaite — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 17:53:00 +0000

In celebration of Meryl Streep and the inevitable Academy Award nomination she will receive for portraying Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady, NOWNESS teamed up with photographer Brigitte Lacombe, who’s been shooting La Streep for 31 years, to present a series of rare behind-the-scenes photographs of the actress .

Since being introduced by Dustin Hoffman on the set of Kramer vs. Kramer — for which both Hoffman and Streep won their first Oscars – Lacombe and Streep have been good friends. And it is because of this relationship that Meryl feels so comfortable and at ease with Brigitte behind the lens.

“Out of all the actors I know she is the most reluctant to be photographed,” Lacombe tells NOWNESS. “I think because it’s me and she trusts me, she sees the photography now as an extension of our friendship…She’s the only actress I know who really has no genuine interest or pleasure in looking at herself. She’s interested in the work she’s doing, and after that she just wants to live her life, unobserved.”

Opening Ceremony has been doing limited edition Where The Wild Things are products for awhile now, but they may just have saved the best for last. I’m embarrassed to say I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I’m eager to do so. This special edition of the novel was made just for Opening Ceremony, and could definitely make the perfect Christmas/holiday gift.

“The line features a full range of faux fur pieces for both men and women, subtly evoking Max’s crew of wild friends including Carol, Judith, K.W., Douglas, and Bull. The line even includes Max’s iconic one-piece playsuit – complete with furry-eared hood and raccoon tail. To top it off, Pamela Love has also contributed to the project, creating silver and brass men’s and women’s jewelry inspired by the film’s iconography.”

What do Claire Danes, Ashton Kutcher and Audrey Hepburn Have in Common?

They’ve all stared in some pretty horrendous GAP ads. We’ve collected thirty of our favorite ads and placed them on Don’tAdvertiserHere.com for your viewing pleasure. Whether it’s the limited release Spike Jonze directed ad in which the GAP gets trashed or the somber Mellow Yellow ads or the pre-Pirates Orlando Bloom spot, they’re all on. While watching you’ll quickly realized why you hated the GAP and come to terms with American Apparel’s rise to pornographic fame.

Here’s are four of our least favorites…

Ashton, Zooey, Jay and Scarlett love bike riding for the GAP.

A never aired ad featuring a dancing Laura Prepon

Carrie Bradshaw and Merlin Bronques for the GAP?

QUITE POSSIBLY THE WORST AD EVER!!!! I hate vests because of this…
