CHRIS HABANA REDUX: S/S12

Chris Habana has been a busy boy since our interview with him back in August. More jewelry, of course, but he just surprised us with this film for his Spring/Summer 2012 collection. For the film, Chris worked with photographer Dom Smith, breaking down the wall between the audience and model, asking each to share something personal. The question was straightforward: “Tell me about a crazy night out.” Reminiscent of the infamous (and creepy) early '90s Calvin Klein ads (you know the ones), and loosely based on the French parlor game Exquisite Corpse, each person's story combined to became one. Dom captured the essence of the story's truth with keen restraint, allowing Chris' jewelry, with his signature play of hard and soft, cage geometrics, gold facets, and new surreal forms, to be the star. Enjoy!

ELI SCHMIDT: UNTITLED

Gorgeous photography, custom jewelry, Japanese style bondage ropework, a short behind-the-scenes video, and one of our favorite models, Robert Maynard. I'm not sure we need to tell you anything more than that. Enjoy.

MUGLER: BROTHERS OF ARCADIA


Mugler Creative Director, Nicola Formichetti, yesterday delivered his sophomore men's collection for S/S 2012. Announcing the collection is this erotically charged film Brothers of Arcadia, directed by Branislav Jankic. Referencing Roman gladiators and 20th Century cinematic greats Fellini and Pasolini, Brothers of Arcadia suggests that the male silhouette may well be 'manning-up'!

In true beefcake tradition, Mugler also released a very limited edition fanzine, also shot by Jankic. Luckily, we got our hands on a couple preview copies to share with you.

SHATTERED

Following the three films he shot for us during AW11/12 New York Fashion Week, director Joseph Eardly heads to East London for his next EVB-exclusive project entitled Shattered.
