Dior Haute Couture S/S 2008

Haute Couture shows have started in Paris !

Yesterday, the 21st of jan. 2008, Galliano for Dior Couture embellished women with

bright and delightful colours -lime yellow, cobalt blue, cyan, fuchsia, orange, violet-,

gorgeous matieres like Satin and Python,

and dazzling embroideries.

In that time where luxury is going more and more accessible to people,

the Maisons try to make a difference notably with breathtaking handmade embroidery

(as you can see on most of Galliano's pieces in satin).

This day, Galliano shows dresses and 2pieces inspired by

Balloon and floral shapes but above all by John Sargent's

Madame X (woman paiting below) and Gustave Klimt's graphical painting.

Kirsten Dust for MiuMiu 2008 campaign

Kirsten Dunst, icône Hollywoodienne prend la relève de Lindsay Lohan

une autre "icône" Hollywoodienne pour la campagne Miu Miu.

Représentation de Blanche Neige version little bad girl

ou encore bad Alice au pays des merveilles?

On n'en sait rien.

Mais une chose est claire,

l'atmosphere des campagnes publicitaires de la maison reste la même.

Sombre, mystérieux, glamour., avec nuance de noir et de bordeaux.

On n'aime, ou pas.

Model-being

Korea's Seung-hyun Kang catwalked to the grand prize in last night's Ford Supermodel of the World finale, beating out 48 other girls for the 250K Ford modeling contract. In an industry where you can count the successful Asian faces on one hand, Kang's victory (she's Ford's first Far East winner) will hopefully open doors for more girls like her. Now in its 28th year, the Ford Supermodel contest was the original platform for unknown faces to compete for a chance to pursue their modeling dreams. How does it stay relevant in the face of countless "make me a model" programs? The company launched its own series of televised contests in 21 countries last year, including Korea, where girls competed to represent their country in the finale. But don't expect Ford winners to go the way of television's other top models—contracts have been awarded to past contestants Chanel Iman (on hand last night to present Kang with her contract), Camilla Finn, and Adriana Lima.

Korea #3

YoonEunHye, antérieurement chanteuse (du groupe BabyVox),
est aujourd'hui actrice plus que jamais, et nous confirme et reconfirme
dans ses dramas ("Goong" et "Coffee Prince no 1" pour citer les principaux)
que sa place est devant des caméras certes, mais surtout avec un scénario.
C'est donc une étoile montante en Corée, en Asie, mais aussi dans le monde de la mode,
par sa capacité à poser mais aussi d'interpréter les pièces de créateur à sa manière.
Récemment, elle fait un tour dans Paris, et plus précisémment

vers le Louvre, la Tour Eiffel et NotreDame pour un shooting.
