If you kept that now-vintage Nirvana concert tee from back in the day, we’re talking circa the 1990’s, bring it out! Is it tattered and torn decades later? All the better!
Fashions come and go; yet somehow they manage to repeat themselves. This year we are going back to the ’90′s with a full-fledged grunge redemption. Casual, and somewhat haphazard, grunge is fairly easy to pull off. The look is pared down and raw – a down-to-earth form of punk. It does not put on a spectacle; rather it is blasé in an “I don’t care” kind of way.

Probably the most beautiful Mercedes-Benz campaign ever!
A seductive woman stands roadside in a state of reverie, whereupon she confronts a car of equal desirability, the new S-Class. They share a beguiling, dynamic attraction and she blows the car a kiss, in a new Mercedes-Benz Fashion campaign by Carine Roitfeld.
The commercial-slash-conceptual short film called Vision Accomplished features a hot new face Sui He in a black flowing cape, designed by Carine herself, with visual references to greats like Guy Bourdin.
Mme Roitfeld had an all-star cast working with her on the project. In addition to He, whom Roitfeld included in the second issue of CR Fashion Book, V Magazine founder and long-time friend Stephen Gan, and photographers Max von Gumppenberg and Patrick Bienert also lent their expertise to the film.
Some people seem to turn everything they touch into art… Would you be coveting this piece of Carine’s work?
