garance doré has had it with street photography
the french blog sensation garance doré has officially had enough of shooting random people on the street. maybe it’s a sign that the street-fashion blog phenomenon is winding down? now that brands such as burberry and DKNY have used scott schuman aka the sartorialist to shoot their campaigns, maybe the original charm is gone? the surprises have become predictable, the looks and fashion more and more the same and the endorsements too big.
as told to rebecca voigt in interview magazine’s latest issue:
“i still find people on the street, but i’ve kind of had it with street photography. at first, it was great to see fashion on someone going to work, but now there are so many pictures like that that the magic has been lost a bit. i want to take pictures that tell more of a story. there are still some very talented people who succeed in giving the sensation that each street photo is a story. but i photograph less on the street now.” -garance doré

now prada, then ysl, who’s next?
so after ryan mcginley’s film for pringle of scotland (see below, which is my fav by far), here is the prada movie. it’s much more of a moving fashion shoot with idiotic looking male models but its nice still. then there is the YSL movie by bruce weber, very bruce weber-ish, what else can i say? so who’s next? what’s the thing with fashion houses making movies this season? by pp’

Ryan McGinley & Tilda Swinton, who directs whom?
ryan mcginley films for pringle of scotland. is his style changing as production budgets change, or just time and evolution? either way i think looks gorgeous. but i must admit, i am easily seduced by the colors. other credits include creative dir= neville wakefield, sound design= eric nagy, music= dogee mountain (interlude). the texture of the music is imperative to the full experience of these landscapes, even the clothes for that matter. but the recitations…. meh. by kl
