Balenciaga really let their guard down and let their experimental juices flow when creating the ss 2010 Campaign, shot by Steven Meisel and styled by Marie-Amelie Sauve. They obviously picked on the pronounced indicators of the fashion collaging trend that has been evolving for some time now. The campaign is well-suited to the graphic/symmetrical influence of the Spring/Summer 2010 collection. Im curious to watch and see how the effect of this campaign will stream through the luxury market.

Want to be the cool one later this year that gets to say “oh I had this months ago” when people are raving about this new artist they have discovered? Well now is your chance! Ladies and gentlemen I introduce you to a new genre called folktronica and the sexiness that is Ellie Goulding. This British singer and guitarist is in my opinion one of the most promising new talents of the decade, and I’m not the only one that thinks so because she was chosen as BBC’s #1 “Sound of 2010″. It’s a list that highlights the most exciting musical talent for the coming year and as they put it “if Kate Bush, Bjork and Stevie Nicks shared a flat in 2009, but were a little bit more sane, this noise would emerge”. She sounds delicate and strong, ethereal yet raw. Basically if her voice were edible I would be obese. With that said be on the lookout for her debut album scheduled to drop sometime in march but in the meantime crank up the volume and enjoy!
