What lies beneath Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2010 AD campaign

January 29th, 2010 Daria No comments

This video presents Marc Jacobs’s and Louis Vuitton company’s vision on what Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2010 AD campaign is. What emotions and attitude to things lies in there, what Marc wanted this whole imagine to be.

The thing is that I don’t know so many people who were impressed by this supposedly glamorous campaign. Many people really think that grass and doves remind of garbage and the the whole view is a bit dirty, so it doesn’t actually say about fresh, young things right a way. I like Lara Stone though, she is stunning and she by herself in front of the white wall would sell clothes, so who cares about the place where she lies.

The campaign may be not so fabulous as Louis Vuitton company together with Steven Meisel think, but it takes a lot to make such a campaign. I do realize that a huge job has been done by many professionals to create those images. I do respect Path and Marc and Steven because these guys really stand out from the fashion crowd. But as much as I do respect them I do want to see something amazing from LV, especially when I think about their Core Values campaigns.

Now when Jimmy Choo’s are starting to sell in H&M the company has already announced their new collaboration with Sonia Rykiel. Colourful clothes with stripes will be available in H&M.

First collection will appear on December, 5, Sonia promissed to make hats and gloves for H&M as well as t-shirts with prints which were very popular last winter. The second collection will be for spring and will appear in stores on February, 20.

I’m sure Rykiel’s color will be on H&M collection, but what about quality? Though the other day I realized that Sonia for her own brabd made clothes even in Belarus, so may be there won’t be a big difference with H&M?

Carrie’s Wedding Dresses

June 22nd, 2009 Daria No comments

The Wedding Dress Photo Shoot in Sex and the City: The Movie became one of the most fabulous scenes in the movie, mostly because of the Vogue team. Everything that producers could make for certain particularity of this movie is Carrie’s photo shoot in those wedding dresses. Personally, I was excited to see Lacroix and Herrera creations in a new, outstanding way.

Silly to argue that in Sex and the City there is one character who makes even 1$ t-shirt to look fab. Her name is Carrie.

Patricia Fields is the stylist of the series and the movie, but this time she was just watching. Anna Wintour was asked to help in making this Vogue shoot to be the real shoot for a magazine. In the end those several minutes of showing the most beautiful wedding dresses were created by the team of professionals from american Vogue: editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley, legendary photographer PatrickDemarchelier, fashion editor Lawren Howell, contributing editor Plum Sykes and famous photo-editor Pascal Dangin, who is at the same time the creative consultant of Vogue.

These legendary people created all the beauty we’ve seen and also played themselves in the movie showing their day-to-day work to mass audience.

The first Carrie’s dress in the scene is Vera Wang wedding gown from Fall 2007 collection. By the way it is not the first Vera Wang dress to appear in Sex and the City. Remember when Charlotte got married for the first time in the series? That dress in her wedding with Trey was Vera Wang as well.

Carolina Herrera wedding gown from Spring 2008 collection was next to appear. It’s amazing especially together with the hair accessory.

The haute-couture Christian Lacroix (Fall 2007) dress was created to be provocative and brave. Turns out it can be very elegant and sophisticated if it’s shooted in Vogue.

The feminine Lanvin (Spring 2008) variant turned aging Carrie to the young girl. To tell the truth, this dress is my favourite. If I were bride I’d chosen the Lanvin dress for sure :)

Crazy and amazing haute-couture dress created by John Galliano for Christian Dior (Fall 2007) can hardly be concerned as a wedding one if you’re going to marry for the first time in your life. Still it could be the perfect variant for Carrie concerning her age :)

The ideal Oscar de la Renta (Spring 2008) gown. The ornament made of pearls looks very chic.

At the end of the shoot my eye was caught by the spinning Carrie in Vivienne Westwood dress from Fall 2007 collection. It’s a pitty that Carrie was finally married in another one.

The ideal wedding definitely has to be with the ideal dress. And the haute-couture dress is enough for a man to be “carried away”. That didn’t work out for Carrie, but still her story is just a fiction. So your story in haute-couture dress can be totally different!
