Very full and flowing but sleeveless as a nod to our First Lady. This season’s shocking style statement – cosmetic scarring with wrapped gauzey details.

london's got the look

The hair is high with a shock of contrasting color. Lips are deep and curvey. More later.

Inspired. Long live Nikola Tesla!

My only question is – are we calling her Iris Van Hairpin or Van Herpes?

It’s an exciting and private way to go to the shows. If you ichat me we can wait and go in together.

 

Iris Van Herpen Spring Summer 2013

It starts with a crackle and a purple whip of an electric arc in the darkness of the Intercontinental Hotel’s grand ballroom. As a dancer contorts atop a specially built Tesla coil of a pedestal, Iris van Herpen grabs the audience by the hand to partake in a dream-walk through one of Nicola Tesla’s energy theory.

I never OK’d this. Nobody contacted me for research during pre pro. I never saw the book, I never attended any readings or improvs during the build on this show. I never even got an email about this show, and you know what? That hurts.skyline2012BLOG

I don’t know about the new views.

Question: Is this the only bed side lamp on the street? I like this trend. Inside out. Assorted pillows around the park…I like that. Park Pillows.

Kickstarter much?

(groan) Okay, Let me see if it’s taken on Twitter yet…

How To Tie A Scarf

This time of year, things get very scarfy.

“Sarah Jessica is not coming out of the trailer until Billy ties the scarf.” –  and that’s a quote.

 

Marisa Berenson – A Life In Pictures

GIFT IT.

Edited by Steven Meisel. ( sound effect of something huge dropping )

Oooh, yeah…I can see that. Very frizzy, yeah. Orlando could fix that. Do want me to call him for you?

Eyes, green.

Four covers, seven eyes.

Jeanloup Sieff captured M. B. here. J.S. is a personal favorite of mine. Click Marisa and browse his website. Inspiration follows shortly.

Ok, so… A while back, I was graciously invited to a delicious dinner at the home of Donna D’Cruz and Tom Silverman – both of whom resonate very highly on the frequency of goodness – and who should be the surprise guest but Marisa Berenson herself? Immediately I filed my excitement for later and sat down next to her where I remained for the evening. She talks often about energies and invisible attractions. We had one going in about thirty seconds. I didn’t know that Elsa Schiaparelli was her grandmother. Oops. She informed me. Ok, so now I know.

The conversation with Marisa was easy but not routine. We share many interests and oddly, experiences. She is sharp as a tack and as genuine as a flawless D ideal cut diamond. She sparkles. Her magic is real. Realizing that re-affirmed so many wonderful things about being here, being an artist, being concerned with beauty…well…the list of sparks she lit within my creative mind that night is a very long one, indeed.

A muse. Amusing. Uncanningly radiant… and real.

whoa. Face! Shutting down the category.
