Vogue Italia dedicated their February issue to it, Love have been dabbling in it, and Eniko had an encounter with it in Tar. Surrealism, it seems, is having a fashionable moment.

Knight. Dragon slayer. White witch. Human butterfly. Kristen McMenamy has just the right look – etherial but not too soft, timeless and ageless – to play them all. Kristen’s beauty is in the fact that she doesn’t have to look beautiful. In one of Tim Walker’s shots for this Love Magazine editorial she cries and smokes with equal conviction. In others her silvery-blonde elfin hair…

As the temperatures drop, the colour mood also changes dramatically. For fashionisers in the Northern Hemisphere currently experiencing autumn's cool days, it's not too late for either a minimal seasonal update or total colour revamp that will take you into winter 2012. Read on for details of winter hair colours to choose right now.

Monochromatically captivating, this black and white colour blocking lookbook for Chanel’s Cruise 2012 collection is photographed by the most appropriate person – Karl Lagerfeld. As the creator of Chanel’s sleek and crisp freshness, Lagerfeld captured the sophistication and simplicity of the collection proving the meaning of genuine style. Following the denotation of the cruise as a journey of the mind, Lagerfeld transfers a breath of…

Far from sullen and dreary, the Louis Vuitton Spring / Summer 2011 ad campaign displays rich and intense Autumn / Winter 2011 colours of boysenberry, seaport blue and fuchsia.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a fashion shoot make a strong social or political statement; and isn’t it always Steven Meisel who’s bold enough to take the risk? Kristen McMenamy is Meisel’s oil-slicked broken bird, a unique use of netting and feathers to create a timely social portrait.

With the release of the third issue of the magazine only days away, their releasing of new teaser covers on such a regular basis is more akin to that of a cinematic release than something in print. It’s clear that a new breed of magazines has arrived. What’s not clear…

We’ve been besotted by Lara Stone’s Love magazine cover, apparently. Though now it looks like Lara is being given a run for her money: giving chase are models Jeneil Williams and Kristen McMenamy. Love have released two more covers with the models holding near identical poses in similar states of undress.

On the latest cover of Vogue Italia you’ll find the still fantastic-looking 42 year old Kristen McMenamy, shot by Steven Meisel. Not only is Kristen a platinum blonde for the cover, she’s wearing the sheer trend and also sporting a pair of over the knee boots. It’s a rare fashion trend trifecta.
