“Lots of Class, but Working Class” at Chanel Spring 2013 RTW
Karl Lagerfeld is the king of consistency. Every Chanel show he has ever done has the same iconic Chanel stamp, always a jacket/dress suit combo, always shift dresses that may be worn by women of any age. The question with Karl and Chanel is always what filter is he going to put his classic shapes...
TKO: Jennifer Lopez V Magazine Spring 2012
This cover story of JLo by Carine Roitfeld and Mario Testino is the best this lady has looked since Mert & Marcus shot her with Katie Grand for POP Mag a hundred years ago. Although I must admit the crotch area on the boxing underwaer/padding protection kinda freaks me out, I think the rest of...
Carine does Makeup
Just when we thought Ms. Roitfeld couldn’t put any more on her plate, MAC Cosmetics announces a limited edition collaboration with Carine. Whoa, this woman seems to have more plates spinning than anyone else in fashion, except maybe Mr. Lagerfeld who always seems to be burning the candles at all ends. No wonder they are...

Calendar Gurls: Carine Style
For her guest edited issue of V Man, Carine gives us her version of the Victoria’s Secret Angels in a 2012 Calendar shot by Willy Van Der Perre. The angels haven’t ever looked so cool. Maybe Ms. Roitfeld should do the VS Show. That would be a nice change of pace. Photography by Willy Vanderperre...

It’s nice to watch a whole bunch of professional peeps doing there thing. Enjoy! To see the full video,...

Chanel Spring Summer 2012 Advertising Part 1
Karl and Carine go super sporty for Spring Summer 2012 Chanel advertising. Somehow these images remind us of Lartigue photos from the 20′s and 30′s… We always love a sporty moment. This is the second ad campaign for the Carine/Karl combo and we think this is the best Chanel has looked in years. Photographer: Karl...
