Digitalistic video: Girl Panic!

The Topmodels as Duran Duran © Stephanie Pistel for Harper's Bazaar

During the topmodel-era in the early nineties, artists made a habit of filling their music videos with Naomi’s, Cindy’s, Helena’s, Eva’s…etc. I guess George Michael was the record-holder – he managed to put them all together in a video (Freedom)- but iconic rock band Duran Duran were actually the first to use models in their clips (Simon LeBon even married one of them). Now they’re pulling the same trick two decades later with a 9 minutes short film in collaboration with Swarovski Elements. The video for ‘Girl Panic’, directed by Jonas Akerlund features the 5 topmodels who made a body switch with the band’s members (except for Yasmin LeBon, she’s an anonymous guitarplayer). Watch and enjoy after the jump! >>>>

Digi K’s living la vida loca part II

Fabulous leather jacket with skull from Phillpp Plein @ FC70 showroom

It has been quite a rollercoaster again. The wettest and wildest poolparty in years with the compliments of Diesel, a blogger-dinnerdate with Italian sneakerbrand D.A.T.E., Absolut Wodka launched a new bottle; ‘Absolut Mode’, the Elite Model Look finale, the S/S ’12 pressdays…and not to forget I had to survive without my computer for a week (it had a nasty cough…), but here is part II of Digi K’s vida loca…

Sing like a Birdy

Birdy

She’s only 15 years old, but I l really prefer her version of Bon Iver’s ‘Skinny Love‘. Thanks to an Open Mic-competition in the UK which she won when she was 12, her career got pro-pulsed rapidly. ‘Skinny Love’ has been around the UK charts for quite a while, but it’s only recently that we hear it on the radio on a daily basis here.
