Hitchcock certainly loomed large over Tom Ford’s debut film A Single Man, and he appears to have inspired Ford’s latest eyewear campaign too.

Featuring the very beautiful Freja Beha Erichsen and the very blue-eyed Nicholas Hoult, the campaign gives a huge nod to Alfred Hitchcock‘s The Birds.

The New Age of Feminine Drawing demonstrates clearly how and why illustration in fashion has made an amazing comeback. Having virtually reached saturation point, photography is no longer the all-powerful medium of creativity, and has once again given way to the age old art of drawing.

The drawings featured in this exciting new title represent many different styles and a broad cross section of artists. All works featured have one thing in common: they possess a uniquely feminine power of seduction.
Categories covered include magazine covers, posters, cosmetic advertisements, lifestyle advertisements and entertainment products.

Artists featured include Akari Inogouchi, Annika Wester, Carine Brancowitz, Cecilia Carlstedt, Cedric Rivrain, Christina K. Coco, Elisa Johns, Laura Laine, Lotie, Maren Esdar, Jarno Kettunen and more.

V Magazine’s first foreign edition inaugurates V Spain with supermodel Adriana Lima on the Mario Sorrenti-shot cover of their “The Sexy Body Issue.” The issue will hit newsstands on June 22nd.

Called the “Happy Birthday” collection, there’s some good b-day memorabilia to be had, including candle and cupcake pendants, a list of famous faces (Karl Lagerfeld, Lady Gaga, freddy Mercury ) that presumably the Kurkans want to celebrate with on their big day.

For more than 20 years, chaired by Pierre Bergé, directed by Nathalie Dufour and backed by the Ministry of Culture and the DEFI, ANDAM has been identifying and promoting the most promising talents in contemporary fashion, in the process contributing to the vitality and international prestige of the Paris fashion scene. This year the ANDAM FASHION AWARDS have attained a total endowment
of €220,000 thanks to the loyal support of the association’s partners: L’Oréal Professionnel, the Pierre Bergé Yves Saint-Laurent Foundation, LVMH, the Gucci Group, Longchamp, Galeries Lafayette, Saks Fifth Avenue (Middle East), Only The Brave (represented by Renzo Rosso) and Hudson’s Bay Company.
Under the leadership of chairwoman Carine Roitfeld and director Nathalie Dufour, the 2010 judges panel unites Alber Elbaz, Hilary Alexander, Jean-Pierre Simon, Sarah Lerfel, Paul Benyamine, Jefferson Hack, Virginie Mouzat, Pamela Golbin, Gene Krell, Humberto Leon and Jean-Jacques Picart. After studying all of the submissions, this panel of experts has selected the six finalists for the 2010 awards based on their creative accomplishments and potential for development.

The six nominees’ projects will be presented during the National Commission sessions, to be held in late June. After due deliberation, the judges will select the winner(s) by simple majority vote.
