Cara Delevigne and Pharrell Williams | Born Lucky in the September 2013 issue of British Vogue

FASHION AND MUSIC ... ITS IN VOGUE, THIS TIME IN BRITAIN

This time its "Born Lucky" the other half behind the hit song "Get Lucky", in British Vogue ... Mr Pharrell Williams with supermodel Cara Delevigne in the September 2013 issue and a great editorial. After Daft Punk and Karlie Kloss in US Vogue, fashion and music reunite again for a more subtle editoral, coordinating outfits, giggling and goofing around, shot by legendary photographer David Bailey.

The word around is that Pharrell chose the model himself for the shoot and she gushed about the music man of the moment saying:  "I was so excited about working with him, he inspires me so much". He is currently in every hit song around and she is in every fashion spread, and what do you get when you see these two together? Stars and maybe a collaboration in the future. Apparently Ms Delevigne asked advice from the hit maker about how to launch her singing career, I guess something new is brewing, but for now have a look at this amazing shoot. 

Oscar De La Renta | Fall 2013 Advertising Campaign | The Intrigue

Fall 2013 ... Who designed it? Oscar De La Renta or John Galliano? We don't know!

This was a much talked about collection because of the mystery that lay with John Galliano's play in this collection ... which created a lot of intrigue.

And today, Oscar PR girl just released the images from the Fall 2013 on Instagram ... so opulant, grand, demure and beautiful, synonymous with the New York designer. 

Have a look!

 So elegant and mysterious, it makes you want to know more - Great from the 80 year old designer!

Ruggero Mengoni Photographic Exhibition | Il Vaso Ermetico | Florence

The androgyny and the muse | "The vessel is the root and the principle of our art" 

Photographic Exhibition

"II vaso è la radice e il principio dell'arte nostra" Dalla Philosophia reformata di Mylius

The exhibition was held during the week of Pitit Uomo 84 on the 18th of June in Florence, Italy. 

The location was in San Frediano on the other side of the river in the old centre. The venue was a real art scene and the architecture reminded me of old houses from the 17th century, ancient mixed with modern art. It was full of sculptures, paintings, objects used for extravagant style settings and photo shoots and finally a living room furnished as a showcase-in a beautiful house ready to welcome artists as eclectic with Daniela Fiorilli visionary Ruggero Lupo Mengoni.

The model in the photographs is Simon, his look is out of this world, he is androgynous and beautiful. I just fell in love with him ... free flowing prosecco and focaccia set the night to be truly Florentine. 

Il Vaso Ermetivo, The Hermetic Vase, is a collective project that was born from the visionary photographer Ruggero Lupo Mengoni with designer Daniela Fiorilli.

The Hermetic Vase, is an intimate journey that blends with ECLECTIC seeking to mark a path between art and emotion. A space incubator for ideas, a place for discussion and experimentation born out of a consolidated two young artists, Virginia Panichi and Eleonora. A union so perfect as to make them a single identity: ECLECTIC. 

 Simon and I

Una notte Fiorentina ... a great exhibition and I hope Daniela and Ruggero take it elsewhere because it was a match made in artistic heaven!
