You know I've waited for so long
Glad I'm on two feet
Walking on the clouds
You know I wanted to show you how
You and me can be

love all

Even though it's heading into winter, my days are getting brightened by summery lookbooks. Here are some more pictures from the Lonely Hearts lookbook for S/S 10/11. The collection, Love All, draws from disparate influences - tennis-style pieces, all pleated and pastels, alongside leather - a kinda good girl gone bad feel - it's what the label does best!

I really like the preppy dresses, the longer lengths, the pastels, the plaids, the prints (which are inspired by the animal drawings of Alan Aldridge and Jan Svankmajer's 1988 surrealist film Alice) and the embroidery on the pockets which were created by illustrator Kelly Thompson - they're like naughty Lacoste/school blazer crests. We're also liking the shots, which were styled by ex-Russh editor and our lovely and talented friend Natalie Shukur, and shot by Rene Vaile.

the message is the medium

Lisa Rovner and Alice Heart's project, "Message is the Medium," is composed of beautifully blended fragments from Godard films, Guy Bordin film clips, or elegant vintage footage with brands such as Agnes B., the New York Times' Style Magazine, Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle Perfume, and other high-end labels. The results represent the associations between the disparate images and the timeless essences of the labels better than many of their own contemporary ad campaigns. But is that art, or artistic advertising? Rovner and Heart were not commissioned to create the videos. So are they really just well-crafted valentines to the labels that they love?

So wrote Ana Finel Honigman in Interview magazine.

I really like what MESSAGE IS THE MEDIUM are creating...

escapism

 

Sometimes I need to get out of the city.

let them eat cake

This is the best. It's just a 20 minute video of a girl eating an entire cake, wearing an AF VANDEVORST dress. More fashion videos should be so simple. And the cake looks really, really good. You can watch it in its entirety here. Careful - it'll make you very hungry.
