America’s sexiest housewife, Betty Draper, from Mad Men, disrobes for the November 2009 issue of GQ Magazine. 31 year old January Jones spent years in Hollywood smiling through role after role as Blonde Woman #4 before landing a part as Betty Draper —the most complex, mysterious woman on television today, and in GQ she unzips her leather D&G jacket and allows Terry Richardson to unleash her inner nymphet.
As the American Summer wanes, Fall looks have undoubtedly begun to circulate the minds and mouths of the fashion world. Women having the majority of say in purchasing decisions is an undeniable fact, reflected clearly through the following shoot. Supermodels taking hold of this corporate city, embracing well-tailored fitted pieces matched with looser yet structured forms. A black ensemble is set adjacent to a full blown leopard print guise [which one would assume to clash but in fact manages to blend ever so tastefully]. A plain oversized neutral coat is accented with just a tinge of metallic peeking out from beneath and those unexpected silk bunny ears Marc Jacobs got everyone talking about. And, of course, jeweled neck pieces almost overwhelming in size couldn’t hurt either. This particular Harper’s Bazaar editorial shot by Akrans emphasizes precisely what to watch out for within the coming months. See full spread on PaperMode.
” In an era of mass production, genuine craftsmanship stands out. Dont forget about the collectors’ items of the winter season. These are truely one-of-a-kind pieces, each made with as much care as a painting in a museum.”
This is an editorial from the Winter issue of V Man, that drew me in so deep. It is a forgotten art to create garments with so much love and craftsmanship. And to juxtapose it with this style of photography seemed so moody and appropriate. I can not figure out if photographer Richard Burbridge really played withe lighting or if the images we masked in post. Either way it was a brilliant execution for this project of highlighting the true craft of each piece. I Nearly died when I saw the piece above by Burberry, a cashmere sweater with hand sewn and painted feathers! what!
