OBSESSEE.

Vintage Yohji Yamamoto//FW 1988

My continued obsession with the 80s, the clothes, the ads, the everything. This is a Yohji Yamamoto ad from F/W 1988, shot by Nick Knight. [via]

Chanel//Circa 1980s

This ad is beautiful, and you can see how the trend of the wrap dress with strong shoulders as well as big gold bangles has translated into some of the looks from the Fall 09 Balenciaga collection.  [via]

Ad Campaigns//Gucci FW09

Here are some more shots of the Gucci FW09 ad campaign, with a slew of models, shot by Inez&Vinoodh. The models include Adrian Bosch, Benoni Loos, Christian Brylle, Gerhard Freidl, Matvey Lykov, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Anja Rubik, Dree Hemingway, Freja Beha Erichsen, Jacquetta Wheeler, Jamie Bochert, Myf Shepherd, Natasha Poly, and Raquel Zimmerman.  Yes, that's a lot of models.  I like the campaign, it kind of reminds me of the Burberry SS08 campaigns, with Agyness Deyn and Lily Donaldson etc, where all the models were kind of in a flurry and schtuff.  All of the models in these shots are kind of doing their own thing, which is kind of similar to the Burberry campaign. 

I heart the 80s vibe of the collection, especially those head to toe sequin suits. *dies*

 

I <3 these iridescent men's shoes. They're sick.

First Look//Linda Evangelista for John Galliano FW09

Linda Evangelista is popping up everywhere these days! Linda captures the ultimate look of Parisian style here, the ad campaign gives off a much different feeling than the actual runway collection, much less dramatic, and more classy.  [via]

Ad Campaigns//Costume National FW09

Ad Campaigns//Marc Jacobs FW09 in Full

Take a look at the Fall 09 Marc Jacobs ad campaign in full, shot by Juergen Teller. Like the Prada campaign, this campaign has grown to be a favorite of mine, I love the acid washed colors, and the craziness of the shoot.

Ad Campaigns//Sigrid Agren for Stella McCartney FW09

As I sit here in the O'Hare airport in Chicago waiting for my flight to Rome, Italy, I still have the ability to blog! How exciting. 

Anyways, I bring you the Stella McCartney ad campaign for her Fall/Winter 09 ad campaign, starring Sigrid Agren, complete with Bambi characters, to complete the woodland feel of the images.  They're pretty cute if you ask me. 

 

 

Sigrid rocks the natural beauty look for this campaign.  Sigrid has grown to become one of my favorite models.

The ads were shot by Ryan McGinley. 

Stella added:

“I’m a huge Bambi fan, and the film reminds me of my mum,” said McCartney... “And we wanted to have some fun. The clothes in the campaign are looking quite fierce, and we wanted to contrast them with the innocence of Bambi,” she told to wwd.

A clever idea, that is for sure!

//Dark Glamour

More brilliant images from the FW09 Giorgio Armani ad campaign, with Raquel Zimmerman. I feel like these shots have a lot more drama, and I love the use of the black lipstick. [via]
