Joan Smalls – “Girls from Mars” Missoni F/W 2014

Joan smalls becomes real life pop art in the “Girls from Mars” Missoni F/W 2014 Campaign. The sculptures make the campaign  look so surreal. The rough Grecian setting really sets the mood so that the clothes really stand out. Between the strikingly bright clothes along with Joan smalls dark skin this is a win for Missoni and quite a striking look in the right direction for further campaigns.

Binx Walton For Coach F/W 2014 Campaign

COACH HITS THE RESET BUTTON: First came the clothes, and now, the campaign.

Coach under the creative direction of Stuart Vevers is definitely changing things up. The photos, which feature Vevers’ debut ready-to-wear collection, feature an “image-on-image” style, juxtaposing new portraits lensed by Steven Meisel against photos from Joel Sternfeld’s “Landscape With Path” series.

“It was important that it felt true to the spirit of the new Coach girl, but even more importantly was for people to sense a change,” said Vevers. “This is a reset.”

Vevers decided to feature up-and-coming models like Leona Binx Walton for the new look for Coach. “It’s about the next generation,” said Vevers. “To me, that also signaled a sense of change in newness and capturing these girls that feel fresh and new.”

“We’re not just a fashion brand,” he said. “We’re not just a brand with history. We’re a brand that has a very strong DNA as a house of quality, a house of leather and a house of craftsmanship. The photos represent who we are today and where we are going. It’s a youthful, Millennial consumer very much dressed in a modern expression of today’s workwear. And that’s how people globally are dressing.”

FlashBlack Friday’s Sara Lou Harris Top Black Model

Born in 1926 in North Carolina Sara Lou Harris became a high fashion model breaking many racial barriers and paving the way for  women of color that walked the runway after her. Sara Lou was able to change the perception of the African American woman from a servant to a glamour icon. She was signed by Branford Lovelies of the Branford Modeling Agency, the very first modeling agency for black women. She then went on to appear on widely popular magazines such as Ebony, Jet and Tan.

In 1959 she married John Carter. Carter worked as a barrister and in 1963 he was appointed as counsel of Queen Elisabeth II. Carter was then honored by the Queen who knighted him. Sara Lou Harris then became known as Lady Sara Lou. Now she was able to “help her own people” by now having this new platform.

I always wanted to make something of myself – to help my own people” said Sara Lou Harris in an interview for the New York Times in 1966
