Vogue Paris x Givenchy x Ciara

There have been a lot of raised eyebrows when people caught onto Ciara being Riccardo Tisci’s muse for Givenchy. Regardless of how “fit” or cut out people thought she was for this role, she delivers in the june/july 2010 issue of Vogue Paris. Shot by Mert & Marcus, the editorial envelops Ciara, draped in Givenchy Haute Couture, and a few of the Givenchy poster boys in a tale that binds sexual and religious motifs.

The editorial is visually cogent as a whole; there is not one thing that stands out alone. Everything works together seamlessly and beautifully which makes for a clear story that is executed well (can’t be said for many editorials these days).

so you know, i’m still here.

Apologies for the slow down in posts. There are many things going on: preliminary fashion week business, some writing, and school starts in two days. I’ve been trying to get it all together! No fretting necessary, I will be back posting regularly very soon.

Fashion week begins the second week of september, expect coverage and reviews of RTW collections, and perhaps tales of fashion week partying and tomfoolery. Also during that week (09/09-09/17), pop on over to LURVE’s site, as I will be covering the collections on there as well.

On another note, many of the fall/winter magazines are out and I’m stacking up. Here is my round up (some are not released yet and will be due out in sept).

L’essentiels:

LURVE (second issue: Hedonism; I have two articles/interviews in there)

ENCENS (Nº24: Dries Van Noten)

SOME/THINGS (issue001, Shedding Snatches of Song Like Petals)

FRENCH VOGUE

PURPLE (#12)
