The Birds

Not sure where this is from, but I sure as hell like it.

Lady in Red

I stumbled upon this picture online (no idea who it is or who it's by)

but the hair & make-up and styling remind me of one of my all-time favourite style heroines, La Marchesa Casati:

although the colours remind me more of the Otto Dix (another favourite) painting of Anita Berber (ditto):

If anyone has any information about the origins of the top photograph, who it's by and whether it's part of a series - I'd love to see more - then please let me know! x Oh and Merry Yule/Happy New Year!

Bygone Fashion

Just discovered a great livejournal style blog, Bygone Fashion. Here are some images by the photographer Mark Shaw who shot some of the most classic and elegant fashion photos of the 1950s/1960s and was also known for his documentation of the Kennedys home life.

Dreaming of Daphne

I just posted about Daphne Guinness' latest charitable endeavour over on my other blog, and while continuing my stalking session I came across this beautiful photo set by Bryan Adams (yes, that one) for Zoo magazine (not that one). Among them are some of my favourite images of the great lady. In images that recall those by Man Ray and the silvery sparkly portraits of Cecil Beaton, Adams succeeds in capturing Guinness as a surrealist heroine (in one image she is seen drinking out of a Meret Oppenheim-style fur teacup) of both the past and the future.

Pretty Pretty

Earlier this month, I styled a Barbarella-inspired photoshoot for the Glasgow Guardian. The model was the brilliant Christin Haussman and the photographer was Rosalind Blake. The location was the retro-futuristic Kibble Palace at Glasgow's Botanic Gardens. Here are a couple of my behind-the-scenes shots, watch out for the final edits in the next issue of the Glasgow Guardian (out now).
