Lana del ray - Born in New York , first was brought to uk attention when her debut single 'video games' which shadowed the Christopher Kane S/S 12 London Collection runway show. The song which has had a lot of radio play and youtube hits has a very mysterious vintage sound which compliments Christopher kane s/s 12 collection perfectly .Lana del ray has become a little obsession of mine i have a lot of her songs on my itunes playlist and i also think she is a 2011 fashion icon, so i am excited to see her style continues into the new year.The video games video is beautifully filmed in lomogrpahy style of film which emphasised the vintage feel of the song, hopefully i will get a lomography camera very soon.
Here is the Chrisptoper Kane S/S12 - London (Featuring- Lana del ray Videogames)
When looking at runway collections i always look at chanel collections first as they put on such a inspiring show.This year was no different Karl Lagerfeld and his creative team turned the grand palais in Paris into a underwater wonderland. A large shell centred the show which was created as a stage for the talented Florence Welch from Florence and the machine.While models walked round the shell Florence sang songs from her debut single 'what the water gave us' to tie in the underwater theme .Her voice and echoing harp created a surreal atmosphere. models showed off pearls, tweed and tulle inspired by the sea-Think shells and pearlescent colors.Florence is rumoured to be becoming endorsed for Chanel and her latest video preview a collection of chanel couture.
Wilst on work expereince i was very inspired by 2012 ready to wear collections which i think links to my minor projects heres some of the designers i have found most inspring.
