a visual collective outlet of inspiration

Month: March 2014
say what you want, but the nineties were the best time ever. and here is why:
because those gals, all together (christy turlington, cindy crawford, claudia shiffer, nadja auermann, stephanie seymour, carla bruni, naomi campbell by avedon for versace and by meisel for vogue, 1994)
because yes, avedon was still alive (claudia shiffer & stan nelson, gianni versace ad 1994)
because everyone had plucked, dark painted eyebrows (yes even you, helena christensen. and you, drew barrymore).
because our teen-idols actually had pretty decent behaviors (ya follow, miley?)
because kirsten dunst and I shared a hairstyle
because this movie changed my life
and to end on a nerdy note, because armies of tamagotchis ruled the world.

a love letter, from orson to rita
Dearest Angel Girl:
…I suppose most of us are lonely in this big world, but we must fall tremendously in love to find it out. The cure is the discovery of our need for company — I mean company in the very special sense we’ve come to understand since we happened to each other — you and I. The pleasures of human experience are emptied away without that companionship — now that I’ve known it; without it joy is just an unendurable as sorrow. You are my life — my very life. Never imagine your hope approximates what you are to me. Beautiful, precious little baby — hurry up the sun! — make the days shorter till we meet. I love you, that’s all there is to it.
Your boy,
Orson

threeasfour topo-graphic staring lily mcmenamy
our dear friends at thereasfour really did it this time. i’m simply amazed at why these guys are not as huge as say, alexander mcqueen? the designs are incredibly structural and detailed; they translate fractal geometry into intricate fabrics. i must say, this is my favorite collection from them to date and they seem to get better and better. i wish i could wear some of these dresses myself! the beautiful music is by mike stroud / RATATAT, cinematography by brian gonzalez and 3D animation and visual effects editing by alex czetwertynski. a nice package overall, great work guys. by dd

celebrity mugshots: the notorious bettie page
bettie mae page, the world’s most famous pinup at a not-so-great moment in her life. page went from playboy centerfold to evangelical christian, and sustained her share of ups and downs as we all do. i prefer the bang-adorning leopard-bikini wearing bettie, but for the sake of tradition, here she is mugging in hialeah, florida. by sv
