Fashion On Film

It's truly the beginning of a new fashion season when unabashedly high fashun videos start to roll out. This week saw the release of three campaign videos that you absolutely don't want to miss. Each video sets a completely different mood for Winter. Which mood will define your wardrobe in the coming months?

The Power Play: Altuzarra  

Designer Altuzarra joined forces with online boutique My Theresa to show off his sensual Winter collection. Watch as model Agne Konciute saunters onto the screen in purposeful, languid movements and stares at you with a knowing smugness. The accompanying pulsating beats are as dramatic as the designer's sleek monochromatic collection. Warning: May result in an urge to strut and shop.


The Whimsical: Valentino

Valentino will make you swoon in their latest The Wizard of Oz themed video aimed to promote it's Tan-go shoe collection. Watch as their sparkling red heels dance their way across the screen and into your hearts. Trust Valentino to put a smile on your face.


The Fantasy: Rodarte

Rodarte are no stranger to fantasy-inspired collections. This season's dungeons and dragons style collection drew inspiration from films such as The Lord of The Rings and The Never Ending Story. Watch as newcomer Sidney Williams ventures through suburban LA into an alternative universe complete with a fairy guide and unicorn to rescue an imprisoned Elijah Woods. The video is trippy, but strangely compelling. Look out for the collections' must-have piece: a dragon-shaped ear cuff.

Monday Music Muse (Supersoaker)

I just can't resist blinding lights, bright colours and gritty, unapologetic rock. And apparently Kings Of Leon got my neon memo. Their latest track Supersoaker ticks all the boxes. Honestly, don't bother watching the video - staring at a neon, glowing sign for that long has got to be bad for you - but hit play, close your eyes and just enjoy.

Happy Monday!

Monday Music Muse (Do You Wanna Know?)

The latest single 'Do I Wanna Know?' by English indie rockers Arctic Monkeys gets under your skin. By the third listen you will probably be belting it out as if you were Whitney Houston re-incarnated. It's best to just give in to this sexy little number.

Monday Music Muse (The Stranglers Edition)

If you haven't heard this song, crawl out from under 
that rock you've been living under and get to it. 
Truly a classic to ease you into Monday.

Monday Music Muse (The Punk Edition)

There is no denying that punk ripped its way into fashion infamy in the form of subverted symbolism, painful-looking jewellery and an over all dirty vibe.

The original punk fashion maven Vivienne Westwood sold her first pieces in Malcolm McLaren's boutique 'SEX' in the seventies. Yes the same Malcolm McLaren who managed the Sex Pistols.

So in honour of the Met Ball exhibition from Punk: Chaos to Couture, let's give some airplay to the originals.

Disclosure: I don't listen to punk music or know anything about punk (but that's what museums are for after all).

Coachella Roaming

I'm not usually the sort of person to justify wearing a skirt with a $1000 + price tag to a festival, but damn Solange Knowles looked insane at Coachella. 

I am tempted to shamelessly steal her look. 

If you are similarly tempted, it's only a click, click away.


Solange's outfit credentials were so insane, all other contenders forfeited this fash off.
