I miss winter.
There, I said it. I'm currently in Israel and it's so hot outside that it makes
me miss the awful first American winter I had a few months ago in Philadelphia and
New York. I was never a summer person, and the fact that we have incredible beaches in Israel never helped. Give me my coats and layers back and I’ll be the
happiest person ever.
On that note I wanted to share
with you the next winter fashion campaigns I loved. So there were the 2 kings -
Prada and Celine. Each and every season they keep surprising me with a new
breath taking aesthetic (though I know I will love them before even seeing
them).
And with that said, this
season I found a few other campaigns that I loved, and what was special about
me liking them is that they are totally out of my "comfort zone".
They don't reflect my obvious taste and it makes me like them even more.
PRADA
No need to explain. It's just perfect.
CÉLINE
Again, no need to say a word.
With explanation:
SONIA RYKIEL
Because of the humor aesthetic and the tension it makes alongside the clothes and model.
ISABEL MARANT
Because of Daria of
course (Werbowy, my favorite model) and because of this peaceful Parisian chic
that is so typical Isabel Marant, but yet inventive each season.
MAX MARA
Because they came out of
their comfort zone and because it reflects a new and great sport-elegant aesthetic, and because it's 100% Carine Roitfeld (the campaign stylist and a
god).
CARVEN
Because it’s blurry but not a
cliché blurry, I love the clothes and I put my eye on model Marina Deleeuw for
a long time now and it's nice to notice they agree.
CALVIN KLEIN UNDERWEAR
Because supermodel Christy
Turlington (she was there in the 90's, she will always be a super model) looks
amazing at 44 and I thinks it's saying something great about fashion in general
and maybe about the path fashion will take in the future. By the way,
Turlington stared the same campaign 20
years ago (!!).
and this is Turlington 20 years ago (just saying):
LANVIN
Because of the humor,
again. But Alber Elbaz's (Lanvin’s designer) humor is always both sophisticated
and sexy and celebrates the women’s body in such an amazing way.
MISSONI
Because of the unexpected
urban nature and model Stella Tennant (another one who was there also
20 years ago).
Final notes:
-Did you notice that
there is something very pink in the pictures I chose?! I am totally a
black-grey-white-blue kind of person…maybe something is happening to me…
-2 times Daria (in Celine
and Isabel Marant) = obsession.
-2 times Christy
Turlington (in Prada and Calvin Klein) = obsession.
-2 times photographer
Steven Meisel (in Prada and Lanvin) = obsession.
DARIA
Don’t think I forgot
the Daria thing I promised to put at the end of every post. As I said, we had a
lot of Daria in this post already, put I can always use some more.
I mentioned the word
humor a lot today, so here is a big Daria smile on the cover of Vogue Paris,
August 2013 issue. A smile on the cover, so beautiful and unexpected.
And if I mentioned the little pink obsession alert – here is Daria in a
beautiful soft pink, from an editorial in Vogue UK September 2013 issue.
That's all. XOXO
