Alexander McQueen tribute
Celebrating the breathtaking imagination and groundbreaking designs of Lee Alexander McQueen, the latest fashion film by Nick Knight pays tribute to McQueen's sensational creations, stellar career, and most importantly to the man himself. This fashion film tribute, titled 'To Lee, With Love, Nick', will be showcased at the British Fashion Awards and online at SHOWstudio.com tomorrow evening.
Directed by Nick Knight and set to an exclusive soundtrack by Björk, this one-off film features a painstakingly curated selection of landmark McQueen pieces drawn from his sixteen-year career. A tribute to the burning creativity of a designer who undoubtedly ranks as the greatest of his generation, this fashion film is breathtaking, mesmerising and utterly unique - just like McQueen himself.

One of my assignments for my 'Understanding Media' class at lcf involved us individually looking at a magazine that we had never come across before. If you didnt know already Selfridges is home to an aaaamazing selection of fashion, art and photography publications. Until about a month ago i didnt know this. now its my favourite place. whilst in magazine heaven i came across a very eye opening publication title. i love you - my printed blog.

as i said this is a very interesting, fresh, pretty publication.
its worth having a look i promise.
ps,
i love you
After reading the magazine and visiting the online site i was very intrigued and impressed. The house style of the magazine is very 'pretty' 'perfect' and 'fairytale like' this is mainly down to this particular issue being the Princess Issue, however after researching other issues it still carried this 'pretty' vibe, which i like. The publication is very photography and fashion based and carries a fictional fairy tale aspect.
I Love You magazine is a creative, art and fashion magazine. The magazine creates a unique and
innovative collection of fashion editorial, photography and illustrations. I
Love you issue 5 is classed as
the “Princess Issue” and due to this the magazine is unique in both house style
and content. The target reader of
this publication is very artistic, fashion conscious, cool and innovative.
The reader of
this magazine does not follow trends, nor do they follow brands. They are
unique and innovative; they create their own trends, their own ideas and their
own thoughts. I Love you is for a reader with passion and understanding of the creative
industry. The publication is much more image focused opposed to written
editorial. Still life photography, Fashion photography and illustration define
this magazine and give the reader what they want. The reader shops in cool
unique stores such as Beyond Retro, American Apparel, Urban Outfitters and
Topshop. They will not copy trends
but moreover reinvent their own. This
is also apparent as I Love you consists of only one ad; the reader
doesn’t need nor want directions into buying. They do it themselves.
I Love you explores editorial
content in a unique and different aspect. It includes fictional articles with a
creative twist; The 6 wives of Henry VIII for example. The incorporation of drawing,
illustration, video, typography and graphics target the creative reader.
They are cool and innovative, as is I LOVE YOU.
i created a small media pack for the publication based entirely on my own research and thoughts. These are not correct and reliable facts and figures but instead my own. I have continued the 'cute' and 'pretty' house style which runs throughout the I LOVE YOU magazine.
What i liked about this magazine was its random pages of still life editorials and fillers. They do seem a lil random when you flick through the publication but it adds the 'cool' vibe which the magazine craves. Its asif it doesnt even need or have to justify the random pages.
Another aspect which i like about this magazine is its fictional editorial. In this issue we see a piece on Henry VIII and his 6 wives.
you can get the full fictional article at http://iloveyoumagazine.blogspot.com/
As well as the interesting fictional editorial you can learn how to bake a cake!
