Another Visit to the Mulberry Monster Fashion Forest

Just a few more shots from the really fantastic Mulberry Fall 2012 ad campaign shared previously.

And a look at the more Wookiee inspired items (that I love) from the Runway Show.

 Which brings to mind this great Lady Chewie Cosplay (which I also love) from SDCC 2012.

Must Be The Season of the Witch - Han Cholo - Fall Jewelry

SpellBound by Han Cholo from noMSG on Vimeo.

Han Cholo always does cool Pop Culture (like Star Wars and Voltron) and Tough Chic jewelry pieces.
The Fall 2012 collection & video look book have a Gypsy Witch Goddess Vibe perfect for the season.

The Evil Look For Less - Disney Fall Beauty - Part 2

Another new Disney Fairy Tale inspired Make-Up Collection lines available this Fall.

And  for those who identify with the Dark Side of Disney - the glamorous Villains, 

 Walgreens is featuring 3 limited edition pallets from Elf and faux nails from ImPress.

Inspired by the Evil Queen, Maleficent, and Cruella.

 

Eye looks based on these characters are super popular now and show up on both beauty and pop culture blogs daily. MAC actually had a Disney Villains Collection several seasons ago, and there are currently some beauty items @The Disney Store that tie-in with the new Villains Fashion Doll line. 

But the great thing about the Elf pallets is the the $9.99 price point - that's Villainy on a budget! 

And the companion ImPress nails also have some fun FX looks as well as vampy basics.

Part 1 - Sephora's Cinderella Collection here.

Desperately Seeking Cinderella - Disney Fall Beauty - Part 1

One of two new Disney Fairy Tale inspired Make-Up Collection lines available this October.

First - For those who identify with Disney Princesses there's Sephora's Cinderella Collection.

The line's teaser is totally 80's awesome - it's like Madonna stumbled into a Bonnie Tyler video.

The style photos keep some of the retro edge while the product packaging is more a luxe glam take 

on the classic Disney imagery. I'm particularity fond of the clockwork compact mirror. 

Cinderalla is just the first look in the Reigning Beauties series of Disney Princess inspired lines.

"Reigning Beauties is a series of limited-edition beauty collections steeped in fantasy, featuring Disney's most iconic and popular Princesses re-imagined by Disney artists and Sephora" - Sephora.com

Part 2 - The Evil Look For Less - here.

Jane Eyre Meets The Hunger Games - Smythe Fall Jacket Ads

Style videos for the Smythe Fall 2012 Jacket Collection are fierce and enigmatic with a Neo-Victorian edge. 

A really cool campaign, with a highly cinematic feel that hints at a larger story.

David Lynch Daydream - Lana Del Rey + H&M - Blue Velvet Ad

Lana Del Rey teams with H&M for their Fall 2012 fashion ad campaign/music video.

A bit more Twin Peaks than Blue Velvet with a creepy vibe more like Kubrick's Shining.

If Look Books Could Kill - Phillip Lim's KILL THE NIGHT

A Fashion Comic for NYC Fall Fashion Week 2012

This is quintessential Fashion and Action - I love it when Fashion and Comics Team-Up - and this
showcases a particularly dynamic trio. Designer Phillip Lim enlisted writer/artist duo John Ostrander
and Jan Duursema (probably my favorite team from the Dark Horse Star Wars Comics) to a create a
Neo-Noir Comic Look Book featuring his Fall 2012 Collection which was inspired by edgy modern
classic titles like V for Vendetta and Sin City. You can sign up for a free copy @ 3.1phiiliplim.com.
The comic will also be the Designer's freebee at tonight's Fashion's Night Out event kicking off
NYC Fashion Week. More details on the project @ Style.com. Above you can enjoy some
preview pages - while some blown up panels and B&W art a featured below via Lim's Pinterest.

Just fantastic! Reminds me so much of  Eclipse Comics' Fashion In Action - the inspiration for this blog!

Superheroine Inspired Fashion Editorial - Elle Mag Fall 2012

The influence of comic books and rise of tough heroines in pop culture spreads to fashion in this
super cool editorial from Elle Magazine's Big Fall 2012 Issue. More photos @ Models.com

Wild Fashion Rumpus - Mulberry Fall 2012 Ad Campaign

Mulberry's ad campaigns are so wonderfully unique. This Fall's campaign is clearly inspired by Where the Wild Things Are. And last Fall's campaign also had a fantastical enchanted forest theme as well.

Brit Noir - Burberry Fall/Winter 2012 Add Campaign

Love the mystery of this cinematic inspired Fall 2012 Burberry ad campaign. 

Reminds me of early Hitchcock films like the The 39 Steps or Carol Reeed's The Third Man.
