Chanel Tattoo Today in The Times, Ruth La Ferla explores all the faux tattoos in fashion spreads the day after we did, and now we can tell you something else:


Those faux tattoos getting spray-brushed on Ben Cho’s models for his upcoming Fashion Show?

They’re being made by Temptu, the same artists who did the skin work on that massive Italian Vogue spread.

And now you know.

(Cue NBC Saturday Morning music…)

It would be pretty bold...and hot if it is, but probably not.

Totally not hot. Even when the logo is well-designed and aesthetically pleasing, in your face branding is still the most unimaginative aspect of the fashion industry.

And anyway, I think that if you are planning on getting a brand tattoo on your person, it would be more fitting (not to mention more brave) to actually have it branded on (see: http://www.byblair.com/strike.html)!

However, I'm all for temp tats, and have been since I was a little girl and used to buy them for 25 cents next to the gum ball machine.

my friend that worked for chanel and marc jacobs totally had a chanel tattoo on her bicep with pearls and diamonds (about 5 years ago). One of those punk girls that grows up and devotes themselves to fashion. I thought it was cool at the time because I thought there was no way in hell that would become trendy enough. Too bad for her temporary tattoos are easy, and soooooo faux. Lame. People should be laughed at for using these.
