Happy Friday! Prada knew how obsessed we were with the short film they commissioned Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola to make for Prada Candy L’Eau, so they’ve given us more via this behind-the-scenes making of featurette.
In what is possibly the most Godard-esque episode yet, Candy philosophizes about men, pondering the menage-a-trois she’s been carrying on with two very well-dressed and follicularly gifted male friends. How long can it go on?
We’re really enjoying this little Prada Candy promotional film series (and we’re pretty sure you are, too). It may be our favorite ‘fashion film’ to date.
Ann Curry would have no idea what this short film for Prada’s new fragrance, Prada Candy L’Eau, was referencing.
Even if 12 seconds isn’t much to go on, we’re pretty confident the final product is going to be perfect. We’d expect nothing less from the duo who brought us Moonrise Kingdom.
The Clothes: Monochrome looks in white, kelly green, mustard, and cobalt comprised of slim suiting, breezy bomber jackets, and one masterful parka shown in both green and blue. There was also a tiny “dots and stars” print that appeared on shirts, jackets, and shorts to give a twinkling highlight to the looks. The pieces were Read more →
After a five year run in New York, Preen will be hopping the pond and showing its Spring 2013 collection in London. {WWD}
Dolce & Gabbana’s just-debuted couture line is off to a pretty damn good start as several people literally fainted at their recent show. Though it’s likely the fainting was due to the heat, we’d prefer to believe it was due to the collection’s sheer beauty.{The Cut}
Are you a Betty or a Veronica? MAC and Archie Comics are teaming up for a vibrant make-up collection just in time for San Diego Comic-Con, so you’ll be able to look just like your favorite comic book darling. {Fashionista Inbox}
Could this be the next Elle Fanning/Hailee Steinfeld? We’re thinking yes. Don’t worry–we still love Elle (she better start making some more red carpet appearances once school’s out!). But 13-year-old Kara Hayward, who just this year filmed her first movie, went to Cannes for the first time and wore a head-to-toe Louis Vuitton look designed Read more →
Last Night, we attended what must be one of the most laid back awards ceremonies in the entertainment biz: New York Women in Film & Television’s Designing Women event, which honors women (and one man) excelling in their (often under-appreciated) fields doing hair, makeup and costumes for films and TV shows.
Tina Fey, who looked INCREDIBLE, was especially appreciative of her makeup team on 30 Rock: Jenn Jorge Nelson and Julie Teel. When presenting them with their award, she described being a makeup artist thusly: “You need the eyes of an artist, the hands of a surgeon, and the firm but tactful demeanor of a women’s prison gynecologist.”
Yesterday, Self Service, the hit French fashion magazine with an insider tilt, relaunched its website with full archives. The goal was to create a database of everyone that’s ever been in Self Service. It’s like an online encyclopedia filled with people who are really, really important in the fashion industry. (Seriously, there’s an index.)
Now you know I love a good online archive, so I spent yesterday afternoon scouring Self Service‘s to bring you the most iconic, weirdest, and captivating photos from the book’s 16 year history. While my computer’s hard drive is now 25% covered in images of Hannelore Knuts, I’ve managed to pull out 20 photos that are particularly noteworthy.
But don’t rely on me entirely. After checking out my edit, go to Self Service’s new site and find out for yourself.

It’s like every morning brings news of a yet another fashion person on film. While this month’s been devoted to The September Issue and we’re most looking forward to the Sundance debut of Jack & Lazaro’s documentary in two weeks, there’s an entire festival dedicated to Marc Jacobs in between. It’s in Australia, so we Read more →
