Hmm, a Vogue editorial that I like – hmm, let me see, could it have been shot by Steven Meisel? And styled by Grace Coddington? Why yes, it was! No surprises there. The models are Karlie Kloss, Lara Stone and Freja Beha.
Ad campaign for the Guess by Marciano Spring/Summer 2009 collection, with Emily & Cory romping it up in Beverley Hills style…
Not often that the quirky Lady Gaga should wear something that fits into the aesthetic realm of SwingFashionista, but she does put her own twist on these vintage style dainties. In the pink number she looks something like a bottle of Jean Paul Gaultier perfume, that might bite you if you get too close…
J’adore!!! Unfortunately I don’t know who is the maker of these fabulous tights otherwise I’d own them. Let’s not forget to mention how stunning this photo is. Ah….maybe one day the Killer Diller girls will do a photo shoot like this….

Categories: In MagazinesYet another editorial I adore, photographed by my beloved Steven Meisel. This one, entitled “In Grand Style” for Vogue Italia, an opulent 1920s tale of romance, excess, passion… as well as hats, slicked hair, cigarettes, furs, oh my!
Claudia Schiffer is all Grace Kelly in the Salvatore Ferragamo Spring/Summer 2010 advertising campaign:
A delicious aviation-themed shoot with model Flavia de Oliveira for Elle Magazine, September 2009. Long leather gloves, fur-collared aviator jackets, tuxedo coats, pajama suits, tweed skirt suits, cinched waists, blonde barrel curls and red lipstick, yum yum yum…
I’m not quite sure why Emma Watson has become a fashion darling, she just seems so very young to me. Not that she’s not very pretty, I just think perhaps she needs to grow into her looks. But anyway, they certainly glammed her up for this shoot in Italian Vogue. The rest of the looks were kind of baroque Cinderella meets Lord of the Rings, but these two I like very much. That sheer blue Christian Dior dress just keeps popping up on this blog (here and here).
Anne Hathaway corseted up for her cover shoot in GQ UK, March 2010. If only they had curled her hair…
The collegiate, the preppy guy, the man in the go-to-hell pants… hahaha. I love Esquire.
Beautiful images from the Wheels & Dollbaby Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign…
Karl Lagerfeld for VMAN #16 with models Baptiste Giabiconi, Iris Strubegger & Oriol Elcacho.
Fiery-haired Karen Elson looking like a silver screen goddess for the St. John Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign. Wow, that hair!!
Wow, check out this Veronica Lake hair…
Okay, I was just bitching a few days ago to Jo about how I didn’t like Karl Lagerfeld as a photographer all that much. But, well, I do like this I must admit. Diane Kruger by Karl Lagerfeld for German Vogue March 2010:
Here is an editorial entitled “Beautifully Made”, shot by photographer Derrick Santini in Tuscany, for Rake Magazine. The magazine’s bi-line is “The Modern Voice of Classic Men’s Elegance,” sounds good to me! They have a few articles archived on the website. Here are a few that swing lads might be interested in:
Puttin’ on the Ritz: An Introduction to Formal Wear
Miles Ahead: The Style of Miles Davis
Otherwise, enjoy this sexy, well-tailored re-imagining of the mafia in southern Italy…
