Agathe and Seraphine's House


I just stubbled upon on one of the greatest editorials of all time! It is no secret that I love Nick Knight's work, his photographs of flowers make me swoon. On a recent lurking of the internet I discovered "Agathe and Seraphine's House". 

Nick Knight collaborates with Dinos Chapman and a cast of fashion's finest to create "Agathe and Seraphine's House", an eery editorial spread for the first issue of Garage magazine. Inspired by twisted images of Chapman's daughters' dollhouse, Knight brings these visions to like - and life-size - using model Lily Donaldson in an elaborate one-off shoot. 

The action unfolding in a life-size doll's house specially devised by set designer Gary Card. Toying with proportions and with propriety, and giving the innocence of choldhood a slant of seedy sexuality and black humour. 

I love Blythe-esque big eyes and bigger heads. This would have to be the greatest thing I have seen!

Joanna Szkiela x Ovate


Possibly one of the best collaborations. Joanna Szkiela and Audrey Cantwell of Ovate have worked together to create these beautiful pieces that work so well with Ovate's SS12 -13 collection. I'm in love (predictably), I'm trying to decide which ring I would like. I'll probably choose the Algiz Ring. It's a hard decision though, ideally I would like them all.

"Too Cool for School" by Nikolay Biryukov


Current and former students of Central St. Martins find their designs featured in this super cool editorial shot by Nikolay Biryukov for their design school blog "1 Granary".

Seriously cool! I'm a huge fan of the chunky piercings.
