YSL 1984



I couldn't resist this YSL ad from the 1984 Harper's Bazaar issue mentioned in the previous post. The primary colors and shapes just make me smile.

Harper's Bazaar March 1984











Issue: March 1984
Editorial: Easy For Evening Photographed by: Francesco Scavullo

The silhouettes Stefano Pilati used for YSL Spring 2008 (the runway images) are eerily similar to the shapes of the 1984 Bazaar editorial "Easy For Evening."

Iconic Black & White Ads







Some believe minimalism was born in the 90s. Eh, maybe. Or maybe marketing departments cross the globe just decided less was more, because black and white was used extensively in advertisements throughout the decade. Almost every other page was colorless, and I would just flip past most. Except for the ads above. Perfect examples of black and white as simple and stunning.

Legging Detail

Spring/Summer 2007

Winter 2007

Each season a photo stands out for one reason or another. You dare to rip it out of the magazine you found it and carry it everywhere you go or hang it on the inside of your closet. You see it everyday and it shapes your wardrobe in the months and years to follow. These photos inspire my style every season.
