For Love & Lemons x Victoria’s Secret takes a trip down Lover’s Lane, celebrating a romantic time capsule of the brand’s favorite eras of love. For the Spring 2024 Collection Pt.1 FLLFORVS drew inspiration from “good old-fashioned” romance as well as vintage aesthetics from the 50s, 60s, and even 90s. Each set has its own theme and odes of love to decades past in mind with a perfect blend of sweetness and alluring sensuality. FLLFORVS new collection is impressively detailed. From the ribbons, rose prints, floral embroidery, lacettes, garter straps, and rose appliques, the designs for the 2024 collection are beautifully done and seamlessly flows with the aesthetics of the lingerie. FLLFORVS really outdid themselves and with model Barbara Palvin, In Our Love Era perfectly captures the nostalgia and romance of decades past with the love and ethos of their brand today.
After more than a decade since her last appearance, Linda Evangelista finally makes her return to the pages of V Magazine for their Spring preview V146 issue of the New Year photographed Steven Klein. The action-packed issue features Alvin Alley, Cat Power, Miss Benny, Paloma Mami, Poppy, Estevie, and an interview with rising Egyptian actress Tara Emad, and editorial of Jack Bridgland. For the four amazing covers, Linda wears Miu Miu, Prada, and Dolce & Gabbana.
For The Love of Linda
Liner Notes: Linda Evangelista has collaborated with photographer Steven Klein prior on some of her more avant-garde and otherworldly editorials with a Joel Schumacher cinematic feel. This is similar to the style of the editorial in W Magazine’s September 2012 issue titled Super Linda channeling themes of a dark fantasy in the most outrages leather catsuits, boots, and capes style by Edward Enninful and photographed by Steven Klein.
Exploring the theme of “Origins”, The Travel Almanac for its 23rd issue is filled with inspiring journeys, conversations, and spiritual and travel advice. Linda Evangelista is featured on Cover 1 and a limited edition Cover 2 photographed by Ethan James Green, with an interview by Michele Fossi. Linda wears the latest by Bottega, Tommy Hilfiger, Junya Watanabe, Issey Miyake, and Valentino.
Liner Notes: It’s so awesome to see Linda don the red hair again. She had some of the most creative and iconic moments of her career when she had red hair in the early 90’s. It was something like David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust alter ego, Prince’s Love Symbol Era, or Janet Jackson making Rhythm Nation 1814 and Janet in succession. The cover reminds me so much of the Barneys New York Ad shot by Steven Meisel and the wonderful drawings of David Downton. It’s so cool how it blends reality and 2D like a-ha’s Take On Me video. Everything about this is exemplary of Linda Evangelista with all the familiar hallmarks of boundless joy, zaniness, and an extraordinary depth of creativity.
24 Hour Party People: In the latest issue of CHAOS SixtyNine, the magazine dedicates itself to the city of Manchester and in celebration of Chanel’s Métiers d’art 2023/2024 Collection. Models Edie Campbell, Amaru Akway, Fran Summers, and Lulu Tenney are featured in the issue wearing Chanel.
In the December issue of Madame Figaro Paris, actress and model Laetitia Casta talks about her latest role for the theater, portraying Sophia Loren’s Antonietta Taberi in the critically acclaimed and culturally significant to Italian cinema A Special Day. Laetitia talks discusses the parallels she shares with Sophia Loren’s Antonietta, mentioning the doors and barriers she had to overcome to become the person she is today. Laetitia also touches on her career as actress, the influence of cinema in her life, her relationship with femininity, and future roles.
“Today, I can say that it hasn’t always been easy. In fact, in my modeling career, I went through similar struggles. I didn’t fit in with the codes of the time when I started my career. Thanks to exceptional people who encouraged and pushed me, like Yves Saint Laurent on the fashion side or Raoul Ruiz and Safy Nebbou on the theater and film side, I was able to develop.”
Mais, elle, Sophia Loren, que vous inspire-t-elle?
Elle et Marcello Mastroianni sont deux légendes, deux grandes inspirations, pas seulement dans le cinéma, dans la mode également. J’ai souvent vu Sophia Loren sur des moodboards (tout comme Brigitte Bardot ou Romy Schneider), et je me souviens d’un shooting avec Ellen von Unwerth, dont elle était l’image de référence. Mais ce qui m’inspire chez elle, c’est surtout son intelligence. Venant d’un milieu très pauvre, elle a réussi à dépasser ses origines et sa beauté pour se faire une vraie place d’actrice, en choisissant elle-même ses rôles et en obtenant même un Oscar. C’était presque impossible dans l’Italie de son époque.
But what does Sophia Loren inspire in you?
She and Marcello Mastroianni are two legends, two great inspirations, not only in cinema, but also in fashion. I’ve often seen Sophia Loren on moodboards (just like Brigitte Bardot or Romy Schneider), and I remember a shoot with Ellen von Unwerth, for which she was the reference image. But what inspires me most about her is her intelligence. Coming from a very poor background, she managed to rise above her origins and her beauty to make a real place for herself as an actress, choosing her own roles and even winning an Oscar. This was almost impossible in the Italy of her time.
“What relationship do you have today with your body and your femininity?”
A relationship of freedom! If I want to show my body, I show it, if I want to hide it, I hide it. At the same time, coming from a fashion background, I have a special relationship with my own, a desire to create beautiful images with all that a woman and her femininity can represent, but it’s never dirty or immodest, there’s never any desire for seduction or representation below the belt. Why make the body a taboo? When you look at paintings or sculptures depicting the female body, it always exudes strength and power. That’s how I see the female body. But I also have the freedom to say no. For example, in cinema, if I feel that a nude scene isn’t necessary, I refuse it. But beware, I think we have to be very careful of puritanical rhetoric, of those who want to turn back the clock for fear of shocking, disturbing… We know all too well the extent to which in some countries women don’t have the same freedom as we do, how they become invisible in the public space, how some can’t even set foot outside.
