Givenchy’s Fall 2012 ad starring Stella Tennant makes us want to rave | Hollywood yohana

Now here’s a rave we’d actually like to go to: a dancing Stella Tennant, thumping electronic music and a Givenchy wardrobe. Much more chic than the usual glow-in-the-dark sticks and face paint.
The fractured images of Tennant shimmying under a stormy sky in violet Givenchy are meant to capture the electric euphoria of a rave party, according to Riccardo Tisci.
“It is about happiness and the freedom of expressing yourself with your body. It shows a dynamic, happy and fun world, which is what fashion needs,” he told WWD.
The campaign was styled by none other than Carine Roitfeld and shot by the Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott team. Joan Smalls, Stef van der Laan, Daniela Braga, Simone Nobili, Jarrod Scott and Rodrigo Braga will also be joining Tennant as part of the “new Givenchy gang,” with images of the partying posse scheduled to appear in various glossies this September.

East and West Coast patriotism at Derek Lam, DKNY, and Thakoon’s September 11th shows| Hollywood yohana

Arguably Toronto’s biggest shopper, Stacey Kimel has been making her rounds at some of New York Fashion Week’s biggest shows (Prabal Gurung, Thakoon, and more!), but judging from her front row appearance at yesterday morning’s show, home-grown talent Jeremy Laing is also on her spring shopping list (lucky boy!). While I can’t picture her sporting the Yohji Yamamoto meets Marky Mark one-strap overalls, the windswept asymmetrical gowns, linen palazzo pants, and sheer flowing tunic tops in shades of pumpkin, crème, and silvery grey are a sure bet.

Meanwhile uptown, Derek Lam showed his California Dreamin’, the collection of my dreams. Inspired by ‘60s mid-century modern design, the white leather lattice cut-outs reminded me of the Parker Palm Springs front wall, and the crisp clean-lined American sportswear, filled with bold colour and geometric prints in tobacco, coral, navy, and peppermint got, in the words of Frank Sinatra, deep in the heart of me. Come spring, Lam will have the ladies running to the registers, wishing they all could be California girls.
Also feeling patriotic, and how appropriate on such a historic day for the US of A, Donna Karan‘s September 11th DKNY show brought out the red, white, and blue with girls in digital-poppy prints, asymmetrical silk shirt-dresses, bold horizontal-stripe caftans, sporty anoraks, and floppy beach hats parading down the runway to the tune of the Guess Who‘s “American Woman.”
If Lam was representing the West Coast, and Donna the East, Thakoon made it clear that he was all about the South West with his India-by-way-of-Texas offerings. Pointy, steel-toe stiletto booties in turquoise and orange ostrich, embroidered lace appliques and wild wild west silk shirtings done in ornate Kashmiri paisleys. Calling all cowgirls, the rodeo just got glam.
