DSQUARED2 F/W 2010-11


Despite tepid reviews, DSQUARED2's F/W 10-11 Lady Gaga-inspired collection gets a reboot with this ad campaign shot by the amazing Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott. I dig the Damien Hirst references.

DAILY AFFIRMATION


Marc Jacobs looking delicious in his new ad campaign for his men's fragrance Bang. Just the inspiration I need to get in shape for summer!

DAVID LYNCH DIRECTS SHORT FILM FOR DIOR



One of my favorite film directors David Lynch was tapped by Dior to direct a short film starring Marion Cotillard ... it's a bit goofy, but I'll watch anything Lynch touches.

GIVENCHY ADS FEATURE TISCI'S TRANSGENDERED ASSISTANT


The funny thing about all of this is that I can't even decide who Lea T. is in this photo! They all look fabulously androgynous, and I love Riccardo Tisci!

Transgendered models are nothing new to the fashion world; I have a very dear friend who worked at Patricia Field in the eighties (in drag). He was quite the socialite, tearing up NYC every night: go-go dancing for Warhol at Area, bumping into Madonna at Palladium, etc. One of his best friends at the time was Teri Toye, transgendered muse and model for Stephen Sprouse.




Teri was arguably the first trans "It-Girl," long before Amanda Lepore and Sophia Lamar. I even heard that she walked the runway for Chanel ... can anyone confirm this rumor? Toye eventually dropped out of the NY party scene, eschewing the glamorous life to become a real estate agent and lead a "normal" life. But, as Teri's Myspace profile would have you know, she's "back!" At 51 years-young ... take that Middle America!

Here's a clip from a Sprouse fashion show, circa 1984!

JON KORTAJARENA




Yesterday's post about the Tom Ford masterpiece A Single Man had me dreaming about Matthew Goode just as I woke up this morning. Then I came across these photos of model Jon Kortajarena who makes a cameo in the film as a James Dean-esque street hustler. Mr. Ford sure knows how to cast 'em ... enjoy!
