Carl Erickson Fashion Illustration

Carl Erickson (1891 – 1958) was an American fashion and advertising illustrator from the 1910s through to the 1940s. At the peak of his career, he signed his work “Eric” and was known by this name. He worked a great deal for Vogue in the 1930s and 40s. He had a reputation for being obsessively hardworking. He only ever sketched from live models. For each illustration that appeared in a magazine, he had made dozens of studies. And he was known for bringing his sketchbook with him everywhere he went – to the restaurant, to the theatre – and capturing the elegance he saw around him.

Them There Eyes: Eva Green

I’ve been watching Camelot recently, and every episode it occurs to me that Eva Green has the most bewitching eyes I’ve ever seen. Here are those eyes on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar UK (June 2011).

Prada goes 1930s…

I was looking through a bunch of old vintage shoe ads that I have collected over the years and have always wished that a pair of these, my favourite amazingly colourful shoes from the 1930s, would turn up on ebay.  I have seen one or two pairs come up for auction in 12 years on ebay but they are so rare.

Then I came across these shoes by Prada from their summer collection, looking uncannily like the the shoes from the old Sears ad! They are a lot higher in the heel but definatley have a 1930s influence. Check them out!

Vanity Fair September 11: Editorial for W.E

Oh what a delicious editorial in this month’s Vanity Fair, shot by Tom Munro! The shoot is to promote the upcoming film W.E (directed by Madonna!) which will premiere at the Venice Film Festival in a few days. If you haven’t heard about it yet, W.E of course stands for Wallis and Edward, and the film will explore the story of the romance between Mrs Wallis Simpson and King Edward VIII, who abdicated the throne to marry the glamorous divorcee. Some stills have been released from the film, so I will post those as well – it’s going to be a Swing Fashionista’s dream come true, swoon!

Polka Dot Trench

From an editorial shot by Patrick Demarchelier for the US Vogue February edition, entitled “Love in the Trenches”. A kind of silly-nice idea, really. It is models with their real-life sweethearts, shot wearing trench coats from the Spring collections. Wasn’t too fond of the other shots, but I do like Aminata Niaria in this polka dot trench – a nice twist on the classic. Cute shoes, and the touch of red lippie too, a very nice clean look overall.

Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian in LOVE Magazine

Seriously, are those really their names? I’ve missed this whole Kardashian revolution and have no idea who the “Kardashian Sisters”, oh famed tabloid darlings, really are. What do they do exactly? How many are there? Do all their names start with a K? Well anyway, these two have a vintage noir, femme fatale look going strong in this shoot for LOVE Magazine, shot by Patrick Demarchelier. Enjoy!
