Gorgeous

Dolce and Gabbana finale show is just so drop dead gorgeous. The make up, the hairstyle and most importantly, the finale jackets that hugs the models' body perfectly. This is thus far my favourite finale ever!

In the room

New fall ads are starting to come out one by one. Among the earliest is the Givenchy ad. I just noticed some Fall ads that kind-of look alike to me. The setting-models sitting or standing around in a room- that is. Of course, the mood of each ads differ, Givenchy presents a wicked darker ad while Dolce & Gabbanna gives me a feeling that they're continuing where they left off from their Spring campaign with a different cast this time around while maintaining their favorite Maria Carla Boscono. I kept thinking what an odd cast - Edita and Heidi Mount replacing Karlie Kloss and Caroline Trentini- but I must say that this time, it works better. The best Dolce & Gabbana casting for me is when they combine Jessica Stam, Lily Donaldson and Gemma Ward for their SS2008 campaign followed closely by the next Fall 2008 ad. D&G to me is more an "outdoor"ad if you look at their past ad campaigns and it usually involves a lot of models. But for Fall 2009, D&G surprisingly was set in a library like room which showcases all the outfits clearly with the models standing or sitting looking straight into the camera. Funny enough, I thought this look like a family potrait maybe from the Victorian age.

A new androgyny in town?

The latest VMan magazine features the editorial:

Extreme Tomboy: Girls Will Be Boys

This is Kelly Kopen, a newcomer fresh from the D & G Resort 2009 campaign.



Although she looks convincing but I will still prefer Freja anytime , anyday. After all, Freja is the one that rocks any androgyny eds and still will continue to dominate them. Rock on, Freja!

I know this might be a tad too late to highlight but these dresses from Dolce & Gabbana Spring Summer 2008 is the most creative dresses that I have ever seen and doesn't they look just so lovely?! I wonder who will wear those gowns but they does make an editorial looks good thanks to good lighting and poses. Here are some of the original runway dresses that are used in some editorials.
