STYLE MAGAZINE APRILE 2011
Il servizio era ispirato a Carla Accardi e alle sue opere. Questa foto in particolare, si riferiva ad un ritratto fotografico dell’artista, nel quale era stata immortalata – in bianco e nero – con una scia luminosa realizzata con una luce al neon. Lo scatto è di Michael Woolley, la giacca di Etro e la cravatta in maglia di Hermès. The fashion shooting was inspired by Carla Accardi and her works. This picture, referred to a portrait of the artist which was immortalized – black and white – with a trail of light made with a neon. This shot is by Michael Woolley, Etro jacket and knitted tie Hermès.
SETTE MAGAZINE EN VOGUE. E’ NATA PRIMA LA MUSICA O LA MODA
It’s certainly not a secret anymore how fashion is being influenced by music and viceversa and I can’t really tell how did this all start. It is fascinating though how this two apparently far from each other worlds can cohabit, expecially when the spacetime distances are very large. In a fashion shooting contest, this kind of chemistry can bring outstanding results, like for the picture I chose this week, which has been published in 2006. Unbeknown to me, Michael Woolley demanded a “Kiss inspired” makeup, even if the styling was definitely not 70s. However, once I got on set I knew it would have worked. Stroke of genius or result of the deep cultural background of professionals that have been in the field for such long time. To be brave enough and radically change a concept at the last minute and to be able to see the good in a flash of genius, is part of the job. Is this unpredictable (and a bit misterious), side of it that makes it wonderful.
