Tommy Hilfiger S/S 2010 Ad Campaign


...Tommy Hilfiger S/S 2010 by Unwerth...

I'm loving the S/S 2010 campaign for Tommy Hilfiger. It reminds me of an old postcard from Miami. Can Ellen Von Unwerth do any harm? She was also photographer for Lacoste's new S/S 2010 ad campaign. Stunning photography indeed; the high-contrast + clean aesthetic really seems to work for summer: I feel that I've gone blind.

Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Topkapital 2008

...Jean-Charles de Castelbajac...

Castelbajac stands for everything I believe in. I've been waiting a long time for art of this caliber to hatch. It exhibited at Paradise Row in London under the show name Triumph of the Sign. Fitting; very fitting.

"In Triumph of the Sign, Castelbajac presents a series
of paintings that articulate his fascination with, broadly,
the tensions and synergies between high art and
consumer culture, and most specifically that defining
element of contemporary visual culture – the brand logo."

Castelbajac also does fashion, and let me tell you, it's no short of exuberant. Anyone remember Lady Gaga and the green muppet sweater she wore to some event? That was Castelbajac. What about the Lego print dress? Castelbajac again. Man, I wish I had his money...


I LIKE.
