SS 11 Campaigns

Gisele is set for a massive comeback in 2011 after giving birth to her first child this year, by starring in the SS 11 Balenciaga campaign shot by Steven Meisel. 

It's been rumored that the Brazilian beauty would land the job as she made a surprise appearance at the

SS 11 Catwalk show in Paris this past October.

It's a totally new look that what we are used to see from Gisele, who must now manage to reinvent herself after her break.

Judging from the image at the left it could be that we are about to witness the 2nd rise of Gisele, the world's top grossing model for several years in a row pre-baby

Leigh Bowery

The ever wonderful Leigh Bowery in a posthumous cover of Acne Paper. A beautiful naked image of the man renowned for his extreme outfits, living his influential performance art to the fullest, at every opportunity. Leigh was a constant performance, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

It's nice to see mounsieur Bowery, vunerable side.

Watch Leigh's legendary Wigstock Performance below.

Pre Fall Season

 

It is a lovely surprise to find monsiuer Lagerfeld so inspired for pre-fall season yet again.

Following last pre-falls Shanghai full highly produced show, the Kaiser opted for a more "intimate" setting as he showcased his Byzantine empire inspired collection.

It's been a couple of season since I have been this exited over a Chanel collection.

I love the 60s feel (shapes and styling) together with the more luxe bejeweled pieces.
