    also i hope she wears lanvin tonight.

  4. Raquel and Liya will be in the Lanvin FW08 campaign shot by Meisel. :clap:

    In March, I met Dangin in Los Angeles, where he had gone to work on the Lanvin ad campaign, to be shot by Steven Meisel. At six in the morning, he picked me up at my hotel—in a red Mini Cooper—and drove to Smashbox Studios, a sprawling complex of soundstages in Culver City.

    We arrived to a mostly empty set. Fifteen full-sized wheelie suitcases were waiting for the makeup artist, Pat McGrath. One of them was labelled “Gold-Blonde Wigs.” Dangin went to get a cup of coffee at the craft-services table.

    Edward Enninful, the stylist for the shoot, greeted him, and they began to discuss another campaign they were working on, which had been shot earlier. Dangin had just received the raw pictures.

    “What was going on with the hair?” Dangin asked.

    “I don’t know,” Enninful replied. “It was twenty different ways, doing it, undoing it.”

    “It feels compromised,” Dangin said. “This way looks . . . bourgeois. It needs to be a little ****ed up. Maybe I can do something with it.”

    “See if you can.”

    Dangin approached the middle of the soundstage, where a team of P.A.s, like roadies setting up for a concert, were unloading coils of wire and cable and a huge apparatus that looked like an industrial-sized toaster oven (it turned out to be a printer). Dangin stage-directed as they dragged a couple of long tables to form an L-shaped console, where he would sit as Meisel shot, monitoring the action on two large computer screens, like an assistant director on an action movie.

    “Have you seen the new fibre paper that came out?” one of the assistants asked Dangin.

    “Yeah, it’s not very good.”

    Dangin grabbed a box of printer paper from his console and handed pieces out to each of the assistants, who ogled it, checking every angle for fibre and gloss, in the way of shoppers at the grocery store feeling up the fruit.

    There were two models on hand, Liya Kebede and Raquel Zimmerman. Meisel would shoot them separately against a black dropcloth—equivalent to the sort of blue screen a weatherman uses—to set off the movement of the clothes. The idea was for Dangin to take Meisel’s favorite shot of each woman and splice the two onto some sort of artificial urban background of his own creation.

    Dangin huddled with Lanvin’s designer, Alber Elbaz, along with McGrath, Enninful, and the creative director for the ad campaign, Ronnie Cooke Newhouse. After some debate about just what sort of glamour the team was going for—“We’re doing our downtown smoky burlesque woman, right?” “So, rich rather than dangerous?”—Meisel arrived, and the shoot began.

    Later that night, Dangin showed me some prototype images that were the result of the day’s work. One of them featured Kebede, wearing a black strapless gown with ruffles down the front, and Zimmerman, in a plum-colored dress that tied around the neck, in the middle of a dark city street. They looked kinetic, caught in mid-motion, as if they were about to hail a cab. Behind the pair were the blurry lights of New York in the rain. Or so it looked. Dangin had actually assembled the cityscape mostly from hundreds of random images that his staff had culled from the Internet

  5. the met is tonight. :clap:

    i think what she wears depends on whos table she is on if she's with Vogue like last year she may have to wear armani as i think her and carol were in vintage balenciaga last year as nicolas was the co host. i'd rather she wore karl than armani though.

    and hi fery! :flower:

  6. thiago! i always wanted that book and they used to sell it on amazon. but i spend enough money on books for my stupid degree.

    celine i am no longer watching kids tv, noone seems to be being very productive though here now were watching the big bang theory! i wish we had a beach to go to like thiago.

    I wonder what raquel will wear to the met tomorrow. :).

  7. ^ eww i hope it wasn't the VS catologue :rofl: or something involving a wig! anna wintour loves raquel in a black wig :ninja:

    the article with it.

    Raquel Zimmermann worships cookies. If it was able to, she'd eat them every day. But, even being thin, a lot thin, of the kind that suffered in the infancy with nicknames as Olivia I Pick and model of the Coscarque (tea of weight loss, famous in his land, Rio Big of the South), she does not have the luxury of eating candies every day. About the profession. She is Model number 1 on the ranking of the site models.com, the gaucho that began the career ten years before, in an ELLE editorial (was with that stuff in hands that she arrived to the photographer Ellen Von Unwerth, a sort of godmother to her fashion career), and she abhors gymnastics. She maintains her form by running a time weekly in a mat in its house and surfing, when it is possible. "When i was in Hawaii I was dying of fear. If you fall on the coral, you break your nose", she recounted during the session of pictures for the layer of anniversary of ELLE, made in a studio in Chelsea, in new york. With a diary that would leave a lot people crazy – the previous day to the shooting, she was in Los Angeles doing a campaign and the next day would embark for Rome –, Raquel is surprisingly serene. Happt to do everything for our magazine – "it is a honor", there was no question – she was happy to talk to anyone and asked for nothing. She does not have star quality. Does not have freshness. She does not do weird requests – the unique one was a bottle of champagne. With the air of girl (she is 24 old years), she arrived at the studio wearing a 45 RPM flannel shirt, tennis Vans, Karl Lagerfeld skinny jeans, a leather jacket and a woolen cap, a look grunge chic that would be seen in any station of subway of the city. Gradually, during the makeup, she was incorporating that magic that is usually seen in each picture. "Is coming, is coming", she joked, simulating a ready medium to receive an entity. She has lived for eight years in new york, Raquel lived for a short time in the hubbub of Manhattan (she lived in the 23 with the Second one) to the tranquility of the Brooklin, where she lives with her boyfriend, the photographer Ruy Sanchez Blanco. She keeps a low profile, does not like to squander money – "I do not think because some people that find that themselves earning alot now should spend alot now" – and conserves friends from the beginning of her career, as in the case of the make-up artist Diego Américo, that made her up for this magazine, clicked by the photographer Jacques Dequeker. "Did not I have colleagues from my job, then, those persons that accompany myself since the beginning are those that I confide in", she reveals. At the end of work, an hour of cookies with champagne. Raquel deserves it.
  8. Raquel should be at the Costume Institute Gala on Monday :clap:

    It’s not a ball until the belles arrive. A delegation of models–both new and established–will brave the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday evening for the Costume Institute Gala..Other women to receive the prized invites include Natalia Vodianova, Chanel Iman, Stephanie Seymour, Lauren Hutton, Raquel Zimmermann, Amber Valletta, Karolina Kurkova, and Carolyn Murphy.
  9. celine i am procrastinating. the whole of my floor has gone out and me and one friend stayed to revise and we are watching gossip girl (the masked ball episode) and reading the new vogue. alexandra shulman needs to put raquel in british vogue :trout:

    and i do drink to much vodka and lemonade! but no vodka till after my exams. and you say its green tea celine..

    and just out of tradition.

    i wish raquel gets a good french campaign (its already announced so were not being greedy :laugh:)

    and i want our nice suprise that the booker said we'd get this month soon!

  10. She has that animale contract for like six seasons/six years so i doubt it. She didn't wear animale on elle brazil before and as its the 20th anniversary addition they could have made her a special dress. but it doesn't look liek shes wearing any of that wierd horse collection that animale did.

    i hope she has an ed/article inside, you'll have to get your translater out thiago :rofl:

    and celine there is another street style pic of her in a miu miu dress if you need anymore :flower:
