Rene Gruau Illustrated

I can't remember how many times I've come across Italian born Rene Gruau's iconic fashion illustrations without giving due pause to recognize the enormity of his influence on fashion and commercial design. Best known for his marketing images for Miss Dior perfume and the House of Dior, Gruau worked for a dazzling list of couturiers and magazines including Balmain, Schiaparelli, Balenciaga,Vogue, and Harper's Bazaar. I loved what he did with ink, and the quality and spirit of the colors he chose. Gruau's graphic love affair with fashion spanned over 50 years and his images aren't going anywhere!

Harper's Bazaar-The September Issue

Like many of you fashion revelers RedPoppy has a subscription to a couple of (ok, several) fashion magazines, and I never fail to get excited and jump up and down like a 12 year old when a fashion-packed monthly arrives in my mailbox. So it shouldn't have been any different when I received my copy of Harper's Bazaar's September Fall Fashion Issue and expectantly looked at the cover, except.....Quite a few panicky thoughts jammed into my head all at once!:
1. I love the pearl drop earrings but JENNIFER ANISTON on a Fall issue cover again??? 2. JENNIFER ANISTON in homage to BARBRA STREISAND???? 3. WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES JENNIFER ANISTON DRESSED UP AS BARBRA STREISAND HAVE TO DO WITH FALL FASHION?????????...
Once I calmed down I quickly flipped to page 442 to see the offending spread with Ms. Aniston (the knob-nosed 'Funny Girl' of our generation) looking like she's dressed for Halloween in a poor and uninspired imitation of one of the most fabulous and legendary stars to ever grace our screens and red carpets. Seriously, I would have rather Ms. Streisand herself graced Harper's Bazaar's September issue, gorgeous profile and all...
What do you think??

--Here's a brief look at the Fall Fashion Issue:

December's Style Inspiration
Miroslava Mikheeva-Duma

Miroslava Mikheeva-Duma. Fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar in Russia. During December, I've really noticed her style and I think I've fallen quite in love with it. I adore the way she manages to mix vibrant colours and bold patterns with lots of neutral tones in such an interesting and fun way. Her style is sweet and innocent blended together with something rough and edgy: my absolute favourite combination. Just look for yourself...her gorgeous style speaks for itself!

Sorry for the lack of posting, my dears! I always kind of forget that Christmas time is crazy time. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and that you'll have a fantastic New Year's Eve. Thanks for all the comments and seasonal greetings...you guys are the absolute best x x x
