Knit sexy with Terry

Thibault — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:50:00 +0200

We were used to see Terry Richardson completely naked on a beach taking pictures of Kate in the same outfit, but it seems that he's found something really exciting in knitting too when you see one of his photoshoots with Lara Stone for Vogue France Magazine! Knitting has never been that sexy even if the clothes are a bit naf today!
No grandma you can't wear this!!

Thanks Jade for this hot find!

Just back from IBIZA and our COTTON COLLECTION shoot with photograph Martin Bruno. Jade (Lisa's youngest daughter) was modeling with Erin from the first collection — all in a family atmosphere under the mediterranean sun ! At the moment we're working on the PHOTO EDITING, choosing the best pictures for the summer collection. Chloe gave me some of her backstage polaroids so we can share them with you. I cross fingers so i can show you the collection SOON !!

Hyeres we go !

Back from our wonderful french riviera, with mind full of beautiful things and lots of photos for you !

A nice 2009 Hyères festival with sun, wind and rain, a conference with the genius Tim Walker, Peter Knapp and Janet Froelich, creation director at New York Times.... Two english artists Swash, and knitting session with friends in the Villa Noailles garden, everybody staring at us !

A really nice atmosphere and nice people there, the winners of the competition with strong personnality (pictures in the second part of the post) — Marite Mastina and Rolands Peterkops, a couple from Latvia who build a world around oversized wigs (Grand Jury prize from L'Oréal and the 1,2,3 prize), Simon-Pierre Toussaint, a young belgian who would like to give a new life to sleeping bag and hicker uniform, my favourite ! (Swarovski and Public prize) and finally Harald Lunde Helhasen from Norway and his yeti-man (ahah) dressed with a nice sarouel tye-dyed (Swaroski prize ex-aequo with Toussaint). As you can see it was a very masculine year !

As always a real pleasure to be at the festival, even if the stylists selection was less exciting this year and the weather not really nice... We are back happy and full of beauties in our heads ! Already waiting for next year...

Amazing flower necklace by Swash.

Steven Meisel and his three-hundred-and-seventeen Vogue covers.

The Selby is in your place

Remember when we talked about Nadège apartment pictured by Todd Selby ? Tonight the man is opening his own exhibition "The Selby is in your Place" at colette (Paris). He's showing a compilation of the exploration work he started in June 2008 about creative friends in their creative environment. From his own friends he started photographing friends of friends from authors to actors, painters, performers and designers.

You'll discover apartments of André, Pierre Hermé, Scott Campbell, Peaches Geldof, Michael Stipe, Ines de la Fressange, Xavier Veihlan, and more... Today his site is garnering up to 30,000 hits a day, and now travelling from New York to Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Mexico, London and Paris in order to satisfy our curiosity !

At the same time Mr Selby gives us as a little gift beautiful pictures of our home sweet New York home, The Smile ! Enjoy the atmosphere !
