READ MORE / POST YOUR COMMENTMadonna for Miu Miu
August 26th 2010, Posted By anders In Fashion TheoryImagine being Guy Ritchie, spending your whole life building a career as a director – the slow recognition, the final breakthrough, the post-breakthrough expectations – and seeing your ex-wife do it all in three months. Ouch. Madonna stopped by a shoot to pick up Mert and Marcus for lunch (who knew Madonna was the kind of person who ‘drops by’? It really adds to her warm and down-to-Earth image) and ended up directing the Miu Miu a/w 2010 campaign video.
It’s kind of amazing, actually. Madonna’s managed to get all her signature dance moves in there (except for the crotchy ones, shame) aaaand that stuck-in-motion effect she so loves. Anyway, back to Guy: so yeah, Guy’s doing commercials for major houses and now his wife is, too. And she’s also directing a feature film on Wallis, Duchess of Windsor, which is just about to wrap. And she also shot Taylor Momsen for the Material Girl campaign for Macy’s. And she’s also dating a 23-year-old.
I think that’s all.

Mhmmm, girlfriend! Daum, the months I’ve been waiting to use that headline. (No, really.) Now the time has finally come for me to do a J.Lo hair flick and a strut, because the new men’s Louboutin sneakers have arrived – and they’re exclusive to the nice people at Harvey Nichols.
We’ve been thinking about stealing coveting Todd Lynn’s studded pair of CLs for a while but now we can actually get our own leopard print ones. The suede and crystal ones are quite tempting, too. Buy one get one free, right?

Attention, F-Troupers

We’re quite partial to F-Troupe’s handsome brogues at DANSK. And this morning we received news that the label is opening its first flagship store in Soho, London this September.
The new Made in England capsule collection of handmade men’s and women’s brogues (note the anchor-shaped cutouts – very chic, no?) will be exclusive to the store, which promises to be part Dickensian curiosity with a bit of Victorian bric-a-brac such as taxidermy and circus freak imagery thrown in for good measure. We like.
