Interview Magazine - Paris Nights
04 August 2008

 

Each era in fashion has its iconic looks that immediately conjour up a sense of "I remember that time, that look and how fresh that was in fashion at the time!" For me, the 80's epitomised a new face in fashion. Women in control, power shoulder pads and severe wet look hairstyles (eg. Robert Palmers Simply Irresistible film clip) This shoot by Anthony Maule for Interview magazine titled "Paris Nights" is like a blend of Blade Runner and YSL's chic parisienne twist on masculine fashion for women from the 80's. The styling by Karl Templer is perfection- satin jumpsuits, wide elastic belts, chunky costume jewellery, pillbox hats, blood red leather gloves and transparent tribal print jackets are all offset by the fabulous cheekbone accentuating make up from Diane Kendal. - Kate Vandermeer
