Tom Ford latest eyewear campaign


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-2-all-right-reserved-coco-fashion-illustration_cover

Enchanted Palace


Enchanted Palace-exhibition-uk

Experience fashion, performance and music in this temporary exhibition

In association with WILDWORKS, featuring Vivienne Westwood, William Tempest, Stephen Jones, Boudicca, Aminaka Wilmont and Echo Morgan

Opens 26 March 2010


Kensington Palace is being transformed. As the walls of the palace are being shaken by a £12 million renovation project the rubble and the dust is unleashing powerful and secret stories about the lives of Kensington’s princesses.

At the heart of the Enchanted Palace journey is a quest for the seven princesses who once lived here. Their lives have been re-imagined as installations offering a fascinating interpretation of the palace’s hidden stories. The rebellious princess who ran from an arranged marriage into the arms of love. Sad queens who bore the pain and sadness of lost babies. The young heir to the throne who escaped the controlling grasp of her overprotective mother. 

Visitors must use their eyes and ears to find clues that reveal the identity of the elusive royal residents. Guided by an enchanted map, the advice of obliging palace guardians and a few helping hands, their search will take them to all the hidden corners of the State Apartments and lead them to a glittering finale where they will at last meet the princesses face to face.   

Bringing the Enchanted Palace to life are the palace guardians, our expert front of house team and professional actors, who provide a personal insight into the strange world of the palace.The Enchanted Palace reveals the emotion and drama running through Kensington Palace’s history.Contemporary fashion collides with the Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection and real stories from the palace to create stunning installations, fashioned by world famous designers including Vivienne Westwood, William Tempest, Stephen Jones, Boudicca, Aminaka Wilmont and Echo Morgan.
