The Bath Haus of GaGa + Plato’s Atlantis

I think everybody here knows that I'm a fan of Lady GaGa, as usual I'm a bitch for pop culture icons, hahaha.
A few days ago GaGa debuted a new video for her single: Bad Romance, it was a surprise for everybody, how amazing the styling of the video was, she is wearing McQueen Spring Summer 2010 clothes 90% of the time, she even uses THE Shoes, doing a little research I found some amazing stuff, take a look at them:
* The Director of the video is Francis Lawrence, yes the same guy that have been doing all Britney's videos, but this puts him on an altar.
* "Fashion installations/video conceived by Haus of Gaga in collaboration with Alexander Mcqueen’s “Plato’s Atlantis.”. 11.10.09. Bad Romance", How amazing is that?
* “I wanted to design a pair for some of the toughest chicks and some of my girlfriends — don’t do this at home! — they used to keep razor blades in the side of my mouths,” she explained. “That tough female spirit is something that I want to project. It’s meant to be this is my shield, this is my weapon, this is my inner sense of fame. This is my monster.” -GaGa on her Razorblades Sunglasses

Now here is the fun part of the post I looked for all the looks GaGa rocked on the video from the McQueen collection, now take a look:





Now here is the video:

Ps: I knew something like this was coming when Alexander suddenly changed the final song of his Spring show last month to play for the first time the GaGa Song
PS.2: Be sure to check out my tumblr, so you can keep up with me, I know I've been a terrible blogger the past few month, but I promise I'll make it work.

Lara!! Oh! Lara!
“We’re so busy watching out for what’s just ahead of us that we don’t take time to enjoy where we are.”

Today I'm starting a new type of post for the blog, where I'll be posting people who I admire or things I really like, for example cool photos, random stuff I find amazing or maybe just a quote. But mostly I'll be posting people whose work inspire me to keep on going.

So I was checking some old post of the blog and came to the conclusion that this blog needs to have more Lara as it used to, so here's the controversial editorial of Lara for last month Issue of Vogue París. Carine is a genius, I actually can't believe people got mad cause they turned Lara "black" like Ok so white people should be mad to because in two or three photos Lara is completely

París a la Doré

Have I ever mention that I love Garance Doré, well if not, Here it is:
I Love You Garance! How is it possible for a women to be so amazing, and at the same time be such a great artist and also having the most handsome blogger in the world aka Scott Schuman aka The Sartorialist as Boyfriend, Garance is the living proof that all of the above is pretty much possible, and plus all of the above she also looks amazing every single time you see her on the streets or in her studio working.

To proove this I've found a piece by her for Vogue's Paris website, where she describes her Fashion Week experience alongside Carine Roitfeld (How Amazing is that?)
Check it out, and at the end I posted the English translation because God knows that my french is pretty much, well it isn't... hahaha

Translation:
"My fashion week with Carine Roitfeld"
by Garance Doré.

During september's fashion week, I have been lucky enough to spend some precious moments with Carine Roitfeld. Some fascinating moments. Follow me backstage at Vogue.
NEW-YORK: In NYC, Carine has really busy days. Fashion shows, showrooms, meetings, and a magazine to follow from a distance. It means spending a lot of time on the phone.
This morning, I'm going to pick up Carine at the Carlyle, her favourite hotel in NYC. "It's my New-York. Woody Allen plays here every monday evenings. You should come!"
10a.m: First fashion show, next to Anastasia Barbieri, who collaborates regularly with VP.
"I'm always excited by new things, like A.Wang or Julian Louie. It gives me energy.
And there are my assistants, who keep me in the mood because they go out, they tell me about what they see, they wear young designers...They keep us awake or we'd get bored and our magazine would get old. But it seems that it's not going to happen: during Fashion Night Out, our readers were in the streets and I could see that they were very young and very nice".
2p.m: At A.Wang's showroom. Carine told me she loves his energy. And his accessories!
"I started in the standing part and made my way to the front row."
"I used to drive to go to the fashion shows but now I have a chauffeur. I have to admit I made progress!"
3p.m: Donna Karan fashion show. Carine always takes time for her fans. And when you see how much they are, it's a LOT of time.
"I'm a decision-maker but I ask a lot to people what their opinion is."
"Being photographed puts a lot of pressure on one's shoulders. I restrain myself a lot because even if it doesn't look like it, I'm very shy. But at the same time, the day they stop photographing me will mean that I'm not a good editor-in-chief anymore. I will be very sad this day."
"You have to go to the parties. That's where things happen."
At night, at Marc Jacobs. Before greeting Marc, Carine meets Julia von Boehm, Giovanna Battaglia and Olivier Zahm.
After a stop over at Milan, where I found Carine allowing herself to take a sunbath between two shows (she looooves the sun) , let's go back to Paris.
Inauguration of the Vogue Covers exhibition.
"During fashion weeks, you're always inspired at least once a day. It can be a show, a meeting, a new girl, a makeup, something that will make you think. There is a lot of inspiration in the shows. You have to be open-minded et take a look at everything."
The César's story: "That's a César, a jewels reduction. Unfortunately, not of my family jewels, I've never met him. I got it as a gift a couple of years ago, I love it and it fascinates everyone."
"I got three awards: the best-dressed list by Vanity Fair, the Amfar for charity, and last year I was in Time's 100 powerful people alongside Obama etc. I was the only French... The good thing is that it's a french "radiance" in foreign countries."

It Must Be Somebody's Fault

W Magazine November 2009 - Cover Preview
Linda Evangelista
Photographed by Pierpaolo Ferrari
Styled by Camilla Nickerson
Curated by Dennis Freedman

I agree that is not a traditional cover shot, but that is what makes it more the compelling and interesting to look at. Linda looks like a mannequin, a mannequin who can give LOTS of emotion. My eyes go directly to her eyes and expression and never really leave. She looks so sad and distraught. Her eyes say a thousand words, in addition to the words she is holding in her hands. Also, looking more at the image, the business man behind her and the security guard next to her become more and more evident. They are just as much a part of the image as Linda is, because in the real world, everyone counts. It is such a cerebral, intellectual image, more art than fashion, definitely, and EXTREMELY provocative to put on a cover of a magazine. I really admire and appreciate the balls the people at W have. I commend them for not resorting to what has become the quintessential fashion magazine cover: the cookie-cutter sexy pouty model in an instantly identifiable designer piece glaring out at you. This is so much more beautiful and thought-provoking. And that is why I love it.
vavavinny - Member of TFS, Loved his comment on the cover and totally agree with him!

Flashback a la Julianne Moore

Since she's part of the upcoming movie by Tom Ford called A Single Man, which I can't wait to watch, I've decided to post her last year cover from Vogue París shoot by Mario Testino, can you imagine yourself looking this hot at her age (48), so to make things short: I love Julianne Moore
