PHOTOS: Riccardo Tisci’s Visionaire Religion Issue Is Very Naked
We’ve been excited for Riccardo Tisci‘s religion-themed issue of Visionaire for quite some time now. The 228-page tome will set you back $425, but we were able to round up some of the most impressive images from the issue.
PHOTOS: Liv Tyler Is The New (And Unsurprising) Face Of Givenchy Beauty
Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci has demonstrated his affinity for a certain degree of otherness in his ad campaigns. So we were surprised by how unsurprised we were by Tisci’s choice of actress Liv Tyler as the face of his current beauty campaigns. Tyler is undeniably beautiful. But does she illustrate otherness? Not in the least.
10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: July 3-9
This was the week of couture — Dior didn’t fare too well, and Vogue was banned from Alaïa. Kate and Prince William continued their tour of Canada, Terry Richardson took pictures of Kate Moss‘s wedding, and Nicola Formichetti refused to work with fat people. Also, your lipstick has bugs in it.
PHOTOS: Natalia Vodianova’s Fairy Tale Ball Had Lots Of Couture
Paris Couture Week is nothing without parties, and the one model Natalia Vodianova threw at Valentino Garavani‘s Paris home, the Chateau de Wideville. Vodianova and Valentino turned his house into a Russian winter wonderland for her White Fairy Tale Love Ball, which raised money for her organization that helps disadavantaged children, the Naked Heart Foundation. And with two notable exceptions, mostly everyone turned up in dazzling white couture dresses.
PHOTOS: Armani, Chanel, Givenchy Stun During Paris Couture Week
We’re smack dab in the middle of Paris Haute Couture Week, a fashion phenomenon that happens twice a year and spawns a lot of jokes in which the word “haute” replaces the word “hot.” And even though it’s quite haute in France right now (see what we did there?) editors and stylists are looking at the clothes their very wealthy clients will be wearing once fall’s chill returns to the air.
Riccardo Tisci Designs Gold Album Cover For Kanye & Jay-Z
Remember Riccardo Tisci‘s awesome art for the first single off Kanye and Jay-Z‘s album Watch the Throne? Well, the Givenchy designer (and rumored Galliano replacement) also designed the album cover.
10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: June 5-11
This was the week of the CFDA Awards — so much fashion, people! There was also a fair amount of fashion at the German state dinner (Michelle Obama, duh). Marc Jacobs‘s ad campaigns were on our mind, as were Kanye West‘s dead model video and Karl Lagerfeld‘s glassware. And, as usual, Kate/Princess Catherine/Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge/whateverhernameis looked stunning.
Riccardo Tisci To Donatella Versace: ‘I Am Very Happy At Givenchy’
Cool people talking to other cool people is the bread and butter of Interview, and every month we can’t wait to see who the magazine will pair together. Included in the June/July double issue is a little established fashion royalty/new fashion royalty tête-à-tête. So, what exactly did Donatella Versace and Riccardo Tisci chat about?
Riccardo Tisci On Whether He’s Replacing Galliano At Dior
Despite the fact that Dior has repeatedly stated they won’t be announcing John Galliano‘s replacement until the fall, the Riccardo Tisci rumor drum beats on — which is why New York Magazine had no choice but to ask him about it during their 54 minute long interview in this week’s issue.
Riccardo Tisci Still Might Take Over Dior, Also Might Be Moving To New York
From the moment John Galliano was fired from his post at Dior, Givenchy‘s Riccardo Tisci has been considered a frontrunner. The flames were fanned early, when Derek Blasberg tweeted that Tisci had been confirmed. Someone gave him the (maybe, possibly, probably) true dish backstage at a Katy Perry concert. And in an interview with W, Karl Lagerfeld said he would like to see Tisci go to Dior and Haider Ackermann take over at Givenchy.
Guess How Much Riccardo Tisci’s Issue Of Visionaire Will Cost You
Did you know Riccardo Tisci guest-edited the upcoming issue of Visionaire? It sounds pretty amazing — he got a little help from his fashionable friends, naturally — and will set you back a whopping $425.
Someone Told Derek Blasberg That Tisci Is In At Dior
At some point while we were relaxing after dinner last night, fashion writer and man-about-town Derek Blasberg got a message that’s been retweeted and reblogged around the fashion world: “I was just told backstage at the @KatyPerry concert (of all places!) that Riccardo Tisci is CONFIRMED at Dior.”
Ackermann, Tisci, Slimane Are Dior Frontrunners
There’s been a lot of speculation as to who will replace designer John Galliano, who will lose his job as Dior‘s creative director and lead couturier after allegations of publicly spouting anti-Semitic insults. Insiders claim that while the company is in no rush to replace him in an official capacity, they have made offers to rising stars Haider Ackermann, Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy and Hedi Slimane.
Givenchy’s Spring Ad Campaign Features An Albino Model
Clearly, Riccardo Tisci wants us to think. After making waves and winning praise for casting Lea T., a transexual model, in his last few campaigns for Givenchy, the designer has asked an albino model named Stephen Thompson to front his ads for spring summer 2011.
Lea T. Talks Gender Reassignment Surgery With The NYT
Six months ago, Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci cast his muse and best friend Lea T in an ensemble ad campaign for the brand. Yesterday, the New York Times highlighted T. — along with James Franco’s Candy cover and Marc Jacobs‘ cross-dressing turn for Industrie — in a Thursday Styles article titled, “Bold Crossings of the Gender Line” about the “saturation” of “gender-bending” in the news and media.
Transgender Model Lea T Lands Her First Magazine Cover
We’ve told you all about how much we love Lea T, so we’re happy to report that she has scored her first magazine cover. The Riccardo Tisci muse starred in Givenchy‘s fall/winter 2010 ad campaign and posed nude for French Vogue, but her first cover is a real coup for the transgender model.
A Look At Lea T: The Model, The Muse, The Pioneer
Lea T may very well be our favorite model of the season. She first caught our eye in Riccardo Tisci‘s Givenchy Fall/Winter 2010 ad campaign, but her profile and accompanying image [NSFW] in this month’s French Vogue solidified it for us: she’s beautiful. But who is Lea T — other than Tisci’s former personal assistant, that is?
Transsexual Model Poses Nude In French Vogue (NSFW)
Contrary to those who believed that Riccardo Tisci‘s casting of a transgendered model in Givenchy’s Fall 2010 ad campaign was a gimmick, Lea T. has become a veritable fixture in the fashion world, walking in Givenchy’s haute couture show and posing in last month’s Italian Vanity Fair. Now, French Vogue has decided to feature her, completely nude, with only her hand barely covering her genitals.
American Eagle Forced To Accept Transgendered Staff
Givenchy made a bold statement to the transgendered community when designer Riccardo Tisci cast Lea T., formerly Leo T, in the brand’s Fall/Winter 2010 ad campaign. But while we celebrate Tisci’s forward thinking, other battles are still being fought — and in this case won — in the transgendered community. Today, the New York Daily News reports that Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has required American Eagle Outfitters to change some of their employee rules, one of which banned cross-dressing.
