Burberry Prorsum A/W '11/'12 Ad Campaign




Perhaps it's the fact that it's winter where I currently am, or perhaps it comes down to having a sense of the collection's potential impact upon 2012's fashion, but it's fair to say that I'm always happy to take in any reinterpretation of Burberry Prorsum's fall 2011 collection. A collection that makes burnt colours and a mod 60s vibe its hallmarks.


The fifties, food and fashion

You may not think of it, particularly in a fashion context, but there's something innately romantic about a big bunch of rhubarb, a string of sausages, or some flowering artichokes. The romance isn't just in what you do with those objects, what you create from them; it's in the notion of where they come from. It's the 1950s and you're the woman to whom cooking is a sensual art; you pick up your fresh produce from the local market of your provincial European town; and you do it all in your stylish headscarf and two-piece skirt suit.


Hello sunshine, hello Lily Donaldson

Muse issue #26, Summer 2011

When Muse magazine do summer they really do summer, so Sigrid Agren's swim shoot wasn't the only thing in the issue to leap off the pages in vibrant colour and with an attitude that drops serious artiness in exchange for pure fun. Lily Donaldson's Hello Sunshine is the kind of sexy that's bold, saturated, attention-grabbing and styled for summertime glamour; with tailored colour-blocking, neoprene swimwear, and solid gold jewellery aplenty.


A projection through time

       


Jewellery and horological photo shoots seem like the bastard children in fashion magazines. Often feeling like a last minute arrangement, they usually involve close-up beauty photos of one of the day's leading models, parts of her body layered with an uncomfortable quantity of whatever product it is the publisher wants to highlight to their readers. Time and time again (not a pun, honestly) that's the extent of it.
Photographer Charles Guo, however, brings something new to the concept of the accessories photo shoot. And at the same time he doesn't. After all, the commonalities for these kinds of photo shoots are all there: the watches, the model, and the nudity. Yet the overt simplicity that normally plagues such photo shoots is gone, replaced instead with dramatic lighting, heady, and (technically) no jewellery at all.
