Here’s a few selected images from an editorial I shot for Elle UK in kiosks this month. I loved every minute of it from the casting to the shooting all the way through to the editing (Ah! So many ings).

Hey! I’m in for a quick stopover in New York after a few days in Arizona, and guess what? SPRING HAS ARRIVED!

The trees are all heavy with flowers! The birds are singing their little hearts out! Girls are wearing light dresses! I feel like tossing all my winter clothes out the window! Especially my tights! Time to lose 5 pounds! No, how ’bout 10!!! And party until the wee small hours! Cut my hair (?)! Go surfing(??) ! Buy myself an iPad (???) ! Adopt a doggy! Get my garden ready! Even if I don’t have one!

But tonight, I’m heading back to Paris.

Okay Paris, listen up and listen well. I love you. But I don’t want to hear it about this whole gray skies thing, OK?

Okay, off to JFK!!! Big hugs and I’ll see you super soon!

… Yes, I know…

…. This was my usual stupid springtime post. Nonsensical and smug, as always. Sorry ’bout that. It’s just that every year I get all giddy and it always happens! I love it. And don’t miss the chance to admire Stevie’s vintage Alaia dress in the first photo… Okay, if I keep going, I’m going to miss my plane. Let’s go! Big hugs!

As I am about to collapse under a mountain of work, straddling three different time zones which is driving me a little off my rocker (Pretty much, here it is: I’m in Phoenix, Arizona in a hotel room working on a project for the other side of the world. And everything is going through Salomé, my lovely agent who is in Paris.)(???)(Oh the internet…), I’m sending you this little film with our favorite images from the fashion weeks, moments when we didn’t know Chris was recording what we were up to, and a whole bunch of other things that I hope you love as much as we do.

Voilà, here’s a video that’s a little longer because it was so much fun to make, full of everything, times of nothingness and all the little moments that happen when a fashion week comes to a close and we want only want thing… For another to start! Big hugs!

#3 This Muse Two in military garb, after saw it, I was told it was part of a very limited edition of pieces that YSL made for his favorite editors. I even saw them under Carine Roitfeld’s arm who almost never has a bag with her….

#2 This beautiful suit from the Giambattista Valli show. So dreamy. I’m not even going to begin to tell you about when I saw Astrid Munoz in it right after the show. Aaaaaaaaah. Aaaaaaah! Yeah, me too, I totally want to be friends with Giambattista!

#1 The awesome leopard shoes by Alexander Wang. He sure was totally on his game when he launched his accessories line.

RESHOOT? You think so?

Really? But with what? How am I going to illustrate the lingerie trend? And where am I supposed to find lacey stuff on December 31st in Ajaccio?
