Madame Grès

I went to check out the Madame Grès expo yesterday at the Musée Bourdelle here in Paris. The techniques and silhouettes are just phenomenal. The amount of time and patience these must have taken is incredible.

Hilary Rhoda by Paola Kudacki - HB UK June 2010

Classical drapery x sultry femininity! Hilary Rhoda poses for Paola Kudacki's camera in Harper's Bazaar UK June 2010 issue. Impeccably styled by Vanessa Coyle featuring pieces by such names as Burberry, Calvin Klein and Rick Owens, this shoot has the perfect mix of neutral tones and metallic, industrial shapes which make for an overall futuristic appeal. Love!
