Karl Lagerfeld’s 'The Tale of a Fairy' Cruise 2012 Film

Karl Lagerfeld makes a short film “The Tale Of A Fairy” about the sort of crazy old ladies that are rich enough to buy stuff from his Chanel Cruise 2012 Line.

With some dubious acting from Amanda Harlech, Kristen McMenamy, Freja Beha, Bianca Balti, Baptiste Giabiconi, Brad Koening, Jake Davies, Mark Vanderloo, Oriol Elcacho, Sebastien Jondeau, Seth Kuhlmann and Anna Mouglalis, the film is beautifully shot and provides a glimpse into the world of the mega rich.

Giampaolo Sgura and Bianca Balti for Francesco Scognamiglio

Wow!! I love it when designers decide to do something even slightly different with their campaigns and I especially love these spring 2011 advertisements from Francesco Scognamiglio shot by Giampaolo Sgura and starring Bianca Balti.

The hand drawn and photo-montage elements are simply gorgeous and work so well with the photos they are paired with. By themselves the photos could be a little boring and the montages a bit drab, but together they create something special that still keeps the focus on the label's over the top and voluminous designs.
