Lara Stone, Craig McDean & Alex White for W Magazine April 2011

Lara Stone works big hair and a big dress for the latest issue of W magazine shit by Craig McDean and styled by Alex White in pieces by Gaultier, Armani Prive, Givenchy, Chanel, Dior, Francesco Scognamiglio, Atelier Versace, Valentino and Oscar de la Renta.

The colours and lighting are gorgeous and the hair is amazing but it does seem a bit like hairstylist Eugene Souleiman was channeling J-Lo at The Oscars in 2002 in the sixth photo down. Not a great look.

Craig McDean & Tom Ford for Interview Magazine February 2011

I am becoming such a huge fan of Photographer Craig McDean without even realising it. Every time he does something new I find myself loving it before I even realise it is by him.

This latest shoot featuring Tom Ford for Interview magazine, February 2011 is no exception. He always manages to take things further than just a standard fashion/editorial shoot and the post production effects here are great.

As usual Tom Ford 'gave good interview' here are a few choice quotes from his interview with
John Currin.

"I'm an equal-opportunity objectifier. Because I make the detachment I'm capable of objectifying a beautiful woman but that doesn't demean her in any way."

"My expression of beauty is something I do naturally. I love the human body—the female body, the male body...I'm very comfortable with naked bodies."

"Gay men make better designers."

"When I come home...I wear no clothes until I leave. I eat naked. I do everything completely naked."

More info and a video here.

Black Swan Actress Mila Kunis, Craig Mcdean and Alex White for W Magaing March 2011

Media darling and 'next big thing' Mila Kunis is a long way from 'That 70's Show' in this shoot for W Magazine's March 2011 issue.

Black Swan actress was photographed by Craig Mcdean and styled Chanel, Nina Ricci, Marchesa and Lanvin by Alex White.

I think she looks particularly beautiful with her hair pulled back, surrounded by feathers, letting her gorgeous eyes do the talking.

AnOther Magazine's Decade In Style

AnOther Magazine have got together a whole load of celebrities, designers, models and stylists to celebrate the past ten years of fashion.

Fashion houses such as Christopher Kane, Rodarte, Hussein Chalayan, Viktor & Rolf, Marios Schwab, Balenciaga, Miu Miu, Burberry Prorsum, Louis Vuitton and Vivienne Westwood granted AnOther Magazine personal access to their archives and stylists carefully paired Kylie Minogue, Kirsten Dunst, Stella Tennant, Lovefoxx, Natasha Khan, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Chloe Sevigny Maggie Cheung, Michelle Williams and Santigold with a look by one designer from the past 10 years.

Photographers Craig McDean and Hedi Slimane, worked on the project for over 18 months with shoots in Paris, London, New York and Los Angeles.

I absolutely love Charlotte Gainsbourg's make-up in her shot by Craig Mcdean, I would have liked to have seen more of the colourfulness though.

Jessica Stam In A Boy Named Sue For W

Ok so this shoot isn't new, infact it's ooooold. But I have had it on my computer for ages because I love it so I decided whatever I'll share it. The story, originally in W, is called 'A Boy Named Sue' and is photographed by Craig McDean. Some might say Jessica Stam looks a bit wooden because she is basically doing the same facial expression in every shot. But that's kinda what I love about it. It ads to the slack jawed, small town feel and her eyebrows are immense!
