For her third lookbook Nina Nikicio, a Jakarta-born designer, looked for inspiration from some of her favorite bands…Joy Division, The Kills, and Billy Idol. She says she wanted to create a collection that evoked the feeling that a “gritty world is more charming with hints of suppleness” Notice the mixes of suede, satin, lots of black…yet combined with feminine drapery and soft fabrics for a glam, gothic, yet chic look.. I love the purple top and leather skirt.

The latest editorial from Italian Vogue with Aline Weber photographed by Greg Kadel plays with the ideals of androgyny, femininity, and the punk aesthetic. The tailored clothing, sharp bangs and makeup on the model are offset by feminine backdrops of gardens and charming vintage chairs. I must say bravo Italian Vogue keep putting out such inspiring editorials!

Australian editor turned designer, Kym Ellery, probably learned a lot from her time as market editor at Russh Magazine taking note of what Editors want to see. She translated this knowledge into her on line dubbed Ellery.
