VITA YANG FASHION ILLUSTRATIONS

"Taiwanese Fashion illustrator Vita Yang holds a MA Footwear Design degree in De Montfort University. Her illustration works can be seen in Vogue Taiwan, The Big Issue Taiwan, Elle Taiwan. She has also collaborated with Nigo’s Human Made, illustrated for the S/S 2011 collection on the official website. Series work: “This is why I miss London so much.” was awarded of Nigo Prize and also chosen work of American Illustration 30."







Theres nothing we dont love more then some amazing fashion illustration, it helps you remember where fashion comes from. It all starts from an idea that someone sketches down on paper, then it comes to life in such a perfect way that it effects you positively or negatively, but no matter what, it gives you a certain feeling AND THAT IS SPECIAL. It makes us so happy that people are still drawing and still being recognized for it too.

Fred Butler A/W11



"Fred Butler is a props stylist and accessories designer based in London. Directed by Elisha Smith-Leverock and styled by Kim Howells her a/w 2011 “Incandescent Meta-morph-incessant” collection pieces, are mixture of colorful geometric shapes and luminescent materials unite with the dreamlike visual aesthetic of the director to create perhaps this great fashion film."


"Fred works with art directors, stylists and photographers to create imaginative one-off pieces for fashion stories to enhance the aesthetic of a shoot. Her work is characterized by the inclusion of everyday object to create a kitsch yet elegant aesthetic."
"Here are images of patchwork paper, playing around with painting via collage instead of actual paint. I’ve transposed my hobby and routes of designing paper-cut art into my accessories. Accumulating origami squares is the best source for collecting rare color and I initially fell in love with the craft by default, looking at instruction manuals when I bought the packs of paper. I wanted to celebrate this history to my story and run with the idea.”

MODEL OF THE DAY







Brazilian model, Aline Weber has been strutting her stuff since 2006, doing runway shows for the likes of Calvin Klein,Marc Jacobs and Proenza Schouler- to name a few. Her gorgeous green eyes and long thick blonde hair are just a couple reasons why shes one of the top models, in magazines and runway shows. Our personal favorite thing though is that cute peacock she has tattooed on her side!

"TOM FOOL ARE WE"




"The third innovation born from the collaborative efforts of designer Lindsey Thornburg, photographer/director Olivia Malone and director/editor Crystal Moselle follows two mischievous “clowns” as they gallivant through the countryside. The films inspiration comes from French new wave films and psychedelic directors such as Jean Rollin and Alejandro Jodorowsky"

TOM FOOL ARE WE - Lindsey Thornburg Fall 2011

Designer Lindsay Thornberg has done it again, we cant get over this amazing photoshoot/video she did for her new fall/winter line. SO INSPIRING.

"This extremely moody piece takes the viewer on an adventure beyond our expectations of indie fashion films. It is colorful and dark, romantic and vibrant at the same time. You can shop all this looks directly from Lindsey Thornburg’s site."
