Here they are! The rockstar and the lovechild some kind of together in a (un)happy wedding setting, photographed by Mathieu Cesar for the Fall Winter Collection 2012/13  of Eleven Paris. Her in a silver biker jacket and a “Lana” (yes daisy chains got this name since Del Rey started to wear oversized roses variations in many occasions) flower headband and him in a pretty classy tuxedo. Surely both of them have the right irriverent mood and sense of humour to embody the I just don’t mind spirit of the brand. Still, I must say, despite the fact that He can be a good model in a smart suit, as a true rock’n’roll fan I always hope to see again Iggy Pop barechest and live on stage when He’s singing Raw Power.

Eccoli: la rockstar e la lovechild assieme in un (in)felice quadro matrimoniale, fotografati da Mathieu Cesar per la collezione 2012/13 di Eleven Paris. Lei in chiodo argentato e una corona di fiori “Lana” (si’, ormai si chiamano cosi’ le coroncine di fiori dopo che miss Del Rey ha lanciato la versione oversize con rose) sulla testa e lui in un elegante tuxedo. Senza dubbio entrambi sono i personaggi giusti per incarnare il mood irriverente e col giusto sense of humour dello spirito I just don’t mind tipico del brand. Pero’, devo ancora aggiungere, da vera fan del rock’n’roll aspetto sempre di rivedere Iggy Pop a petto nudo sul palco mentre canta live Raw Power.

If you like this black and white photographs above you should also take a look to the site of Mathieu Cesar, this young and promising french photographer that portrayed the couple.

Se gli scatti in bianco e nero sopra vi sono piaciuti dovreste anche visitare il sito di Mathieu Cesar, il giovanissimo e promettente fotografo francese che ha ritratto la coppia.

Inez and Vinoodh shot the model Daria Strokous for this short film “Secret Garden – Versailles” wearing Dior Fall 2012 ready-to-wear in some cult spots of the chateau, from the Hall of Mirrors to the manicured gardens. Also, the video features an excellent soundtrack: Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode. This awesome song, united with the melancholic looks and moves of the model and the unique location, give the video a very suggestive Marie Antoinette feel.

Il video “Secret Garden – Versailles” e’ stato girato da Inez and Vinoodh, che hanno ripreso la modella Daria Strokous con indosso alcuni pezzi di Dior pret-a-porter dell’Inverno 2012 in alcuni luoghi simbolo del castello, dalla sala degli specchi ai giardini. Inoltre il video ha una colonna sonora d’eccellenza: Enjoy the Silence dei Depeche Mode. La canzone mito, unita con gli sguardi e le movenze melancoliche della modella e alla location unica, danno al video un’anima alla Maria Antoinette molto suggestiva.

.. Don’t you think so too? Rodarte came out with so many beautiful creations and testimonials lately that everytime they find a way to leave us stunned. Any examples?

..Non lo pensate anche voi? Il brand ha creato dei vestiti cosi’ belli e ha avuto dei testimonial talmente eccezionali ultimamente da lasciarci sempre a bocca aperta. Volete degli esempi?

– White Swan/Black Swan: Kate and Laura Mulleavy created the coreographic ultra-feathered tutus worn by Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis in Black Swan. “We began by fixating on the shredded tutus on Degas’ Bronze ballerinas. We were inspired by the idea of metamorphosis, specifically the dichotomy between perfection and decay” – Said Kate and Laura on their inspiration for the movie’s costumes.

– White Swan/Black Swan: Kate and Laura Mulleavy hanno disegnato i coreografici e piumatissimi tutu’ indossati da Natalie Portman e Mila Kunis in Black Swan. ” Abbiamo iniziato a concentrarci sui tutu’ delle ballerine in bronzo di Degas. Ci siamo ispirate dall’idea di metamorfosi, e nello specifico dalla dicotomia tra perfezione e declino” – Hanno detto Kate e Laura a proposito della loro ispirazione per i costumi del film.

– Some famous sisters you might know..: Rodarte has been chosen lately by some of the most stylish Hollywood actresses (like Natalie Portman – that won the Academy Award in a Rodarte plum gown-  and Rooney Mara), and especially the two Fanning sister contributed to grow the charme of the maison (Below, Elle and Dakota in Vogue‘s Best Dressed of 2012 issue both wearing Rodarte at the S/S 2012 show).

– Sorelle famose di cui avrete sentito parlare..: Rodarte e’ stato scelto ultimamente da alcune delle piu’ eleganti attrici di Hollywood (come Natalie Portman – che ha ritirato l’Oscar in Rodarte color prugna- e Rooney Mara), e specialmente le due sorelle Fanning hanno contribuito ad accrescere lo charme della maison (sotto, Elle e Dakota nel Vogue Best Dressed of 2012 issue, entrambe vestite Rodarte alla sfilata S/S 2012).

– La sorpresa: Taylor Swift e’ diventata affascinante come mai prima d’ora in Rodarte per il servizio di Vogue America.

– Beck and Charlotte Gainsbourg, photographed together for i-D in Rodarte: could you ask for anything more?

– Beck e Charlotte Gainsbourg, fotografati assieme per i-D in Rodarte: si potrebbe volere di piu’?

– The Fra Angelico Collection at LACMA (photos by Autumn De Wilde): dreamy and hieratic at the same time. Classic Art meets research and the prestigious fabrics and embroideries of couture, and dresses look like modern saints’ gowns.

– The Fra Angelico Collection at LACMA (photos by Autumn De Wilde): sognante e allo stesso tempo ieratica. L’arte classica incontra la ricerca e i preziosi tessuti e rifinimenti couture, e i vestiti sembrano gli abiti di santi moderni.

– That Dress: Worn by Elle Fanning to the 2012 Critic’s Choice Awards and by Taylor Swift for Vogue, the Rodarte’s S/S 2012 Iridescent Seafoam Silk Chiffon and Tulle Gown with Sunflower Silk Embroidery is my first #dresscrush this year.. And now that I shared it with you all, I  know I won’t be lonely in this longing anymore.

– Quel vestito: Indossato da Elle Fanning al Critic’s Choice Award 2012 e da Taylor Swift per Vogue, il vestito di Rodarte S/S 2012 color acqua marina in seta di chiffon iridescente e tulle con ricami di girasoli di seta e’ la mia prima #dresscrush di quest’anno.. E ora che l’ho condivisa con tutti voi, so che non saro’ piu’ sola in questo mio desiderio.

Sometimes I’m so envious of some forms that you can find in nature because they are just naturally so shiny and diverse. They look so perfect it’s hard to believe they were born like this, with no men’s work. I think that’s why very often fashion tries to imitate them, to pursue a continuous search for what’s the most beautiful, in and out of nature.
