A|X Armani signs up Kate Lanphear for Style Festival


Enter into a world of wonderland with the A|X Armani Exchange Spring 2011 advertising campaign, "Style Festival." Created by one of the most influential women in fashion, Stylist Kate Lanphear (Elle Magazine, Style Director) the A|X "Style Festival" campaign is an adventure of sound and style, evoking the independence and free-spirited world of music that speaks directly to the A|X Generation.
"With the Armani Exchange campaign, we wanted to stay true to the soul of the brand and the advertising concept," says A|X campaign stylist Kate Lanphear. "Music is such a big part of the brand's DNA and so it seemed natural to bring the A|X style to life at music's most celebrated festival - Coachella."
The inspiration behind the collection is what Lanphear sought to bring to life in the campaign – the sense of effortless ease that exists in the Coachella culture – a culture that resonates and rings true with today's youth market.
"The aesthetic of the A|X Spring 2011 Collection was conceived around casual but sophisticated style and the modern influence of season-less, festival-chic dressing. The emphasis was not on major seasonal shifts but instead on creating looks that possess an overall truthfulness," said Lanphear.
"Style Festival" breaks with a series of color images that in major national media—print, outdoor ads, and online. The in-book media program consists of single page and ad spreads which will be featured in the February 2011 issues of GQ, ELLE, Glamour, Allure, OUT, Nylon, V Magazine and V-Men, among others. Significant spending will also be allocated to digital media platforms through the use of QR codes placed in the seasonal advertising

Scarlett poses for MANGO’s Modernist Resort collection

 


Scarlett Johansson, one of the most important actresses on the international scene, is to be the star of MANGO's advertising campaign for the fourth consecutive season.

La Ricarda House, a spectacular modernist house in El Prat de Llobregat (Barcelona) was the setting chosen by MANGO for the photo session for the new Spring 2011 season, in which the American actress poses once again for photographer Mario Sorrenti. Jane How was styling director for the shoot, while hair and makeup were by Aaron de Mey and Oribe respectively.

The renowned photographer, who has worked with MANGO since Scarlett first became the face of the brand, has yet again captured the more sophisticated, fresher side of the actress perfectly. Scarlett Johansson said that she was in her element working for the brand. “Yes, it has been great working with MANGO. I loved working with the whole team – I think between Mario, the makeup and hairdressing teams and the stylist, we have created something special."

The new MANGO collection, called Modernist Resort, has gone for a clean, modernist look with a focus on simple lines and minimalist silhouettes that use bright colours and graphic contrasts in the stripes to add energy. The longer skirt move towards pencil styles and slightly fuller forms, adding movement and sensuality.
