Is it me, or this editorial is amazing? Agyness Deyn free falling from the sky for POP magazine’s Fall 2008 issue. Firstly, we have that mysterious photos of Aggy falling naked and now, we see the final product. I’ve to say I’m such a big fan of this work. Where do I get a copy of this mag in Singapore? Basheer?
Agyness Deyn has finally moved on from the cropped hair that skyrocketed her to fame. She was spotted in a lovely New York afternoon with her new boyfriend, Albert Hammond Jr - The Strokes guitarist. I guess if you’re as pretty as Agyness and minus the Mickey ears, you can definitely pulled of this bowl hair-cut. This is not for moi!!
What happens when you throw photographer Steve Meisel and a beautiful set of “IT” models together? You get a mind-blowing, crazy editorial that is can simply be summed up with two words: BEAUTIFUL CHAOS. The concept is to revive four fashionable cult groups with a modern twist. This amazing editorial features Agyness Deyn, Caroline Trentini, Gemma Ward, Iselin Steiro, Lily Donaldson, and Sasha Pivovarova. I can’t help thinking how much it is to be on the photo shoot. Talk about fashionably late - this is Fashion Rocks 2007’s “In My Tribe”editorial.
I’m a little late in Agyness Deyn’s update. The latest fragrance campaign from Jean Paul Gaultier’s Ma Dame featuring Agyness Deyn and Gaultier himself as photographed by Jean-Baptiste Mondino. The video is pretty awesome with her chopping off her blonde locks, and snipping off her clothes to create her own style. The essence of the video is very much Agyness if you ask me.
I was just reading Rock.The.Trend. Despite the criticism regarding Agyness as a style icon - I honestly think she’s a breath of fresh air to the modeling industry. She’s in her mid-20s. She seems genuine. She doesn’t look like she starved herself. She seems happy-go-lucky. She doesn’t wear designer all the time. I think she’s great - as compared to some sullen lookin’ Eastern European models you’re seeing these days. What do you think?
NYLON magazine has archived a library of photo booth pictures from their NYLON Summer Music Tour. And, we’re spotting famous faces in the album. The Super Booth, as they call the crazy travelling camera box has caught some priceless moments and I can’t help but enjoy the faces snapped in a confined box. Agyness, my love!
A couple of years ago, Jan and I went to an old photo booth which Wayne discovered along Middle Road to take this strip of crazy photos. Unfortunately, that particular photo booth doesn’t exists anymore. We took these shots for our Amazing Race Asia #1 application - which we didn’t get selected because AXN only wants pretty famous faces (Boo!). They’ve no idea what they’re missing. LOL. Our hairstyles were so funny back then.
It is one thing to be famous. And, another to be immortalized. Our fave ‘IT’ girl, Agyness Deyn has is being unveiled as Rootstein Mannequin’s latest model on May 20th. Rootstein Creative Director Kevin ArpinoI explains the choice, “Rootstein has had a long history of predicting the decades most influential visages and we felt that Agyness embodies the look of the first decade of this century. Her style and mannerisms both on and off the runway, as well as her fabulous physique, made her the perfect choice to be immortalized as a mannequin.”
Agyness Deyn is the face of this century. In her second solo cover of June 2008’s Vogue UK,Agyness looks uber-cute in a “teeny weeny white Burberry shorts with her peroxide crop artfully tousled (by Sam McKnight) – and summer is here at last”.
My favourite girl, Agyness Deyn is releasing her new collaborative single “Who” with New York band, The Five O’Clock Heroes. Agyness appeared and also sang in the video - it’s catchy, and it kinda reminds me of Milla Jovovich. According to NME, the single will be released on “June 23 on seven-inch vinyl and download formats”. Don’t miss out on this.
x-wen : Rose: Yeah, I would like H&M to reach the shores here, or even Urban Outfitters. LOL. Uniqlo is coming, and I like their basics. I'm bored of the malls in S'pore, it's the same everywhere you go.
x-wen : Rose: Hey you! For film schools, I'm working at NYU Tisch Asia right now. And, NYU is one of the more prestigious film schools in the US. If you're looking at the West coastm you can go to UCLA or CalArts. If not, New York Film Academy is good too.
Rose : yeah, i wish there were brands like H&M, target, Monki in singapore, but even there's topshop, they don't carry everything here:(
Rose : oh my, your bali trip/room/scene was awesome! and ouhhh bikini! haha. Oh btw i heard about you're in the film industry right? Do you have any idea which school is good at it? probably in the US? Bcos it's also one of my options for my further studies.

Bingboompia : YES YES YES!!! Hope I'm able to go soon! Anyway, do you use MSN often?
x-wen : Haha, you should! It's not very ex to go to HK now. I wanna live there and eat dim sums all day.
Bingboompia : Haha! I'm a huge fan of Naruto, so that character came to my mine straight away when I first saw Agyness's new hair. Anyway, I didn't get to view HK's famous night view from that angle, I was on the peak, but this is still VERY VERY beautiful! God, you're making me wanting to go there EVEN MORE!
x-wen : yeah, I read your post after I blogged. I thought that was a really cute comparison. Good spotting!
Bingboompia : Yes! I went HK once before and besides the cheesy phase "shopping heaven", I just can't find another to describe! HAHA! Anyway, about the new Agyness hair, I too blogged about it and compared it with Hinata, a character from Naruto. Try google image search her, you'll be amused. HAHA!
x-wen : Jo: YUP! I love HK! Haha, your guide was helpful. I ate so much that I'm not sure if I can fit into my clothes anymore!
x-wen : bingboompia: HK was fun! Yeah, was crazy at the Night Festival. I didn't manage to get too close to the show. I was 30 min late!
jo_wottoncool : happy belated birthday! i hope you're enjoying yourself in hk. enjoy yourself for us too! eat more dun dan for me! haha
Bingboompia : You were there for the Festival??! I was too! And yes, the crowd was HUGE!!

jo_wottoncool : TONY LEONGGGGGG! he's supposed to be mine ): i'm torn! happy and sad at the same time hahaha
Bingboompia : FINALLY! It's about time for both of them to OFFICIALLY tie the knot. Carina Lau looked as gorgeous as always. I've always liked her femininity and classiness. Congrat, truely.
x-wen : Jo: Haha, I guess I'm a cheap date. To me, holidays are more important than handbags (I know, confession of a fashion blogger)
x-wen : Rose: Thanks! It's about a week away now!!
