Ad Campaign - Givenchy Fall 2009
ALL IN THE FAMILY: His fetish model Mariacarla Boscono remains part of the picture, but otherwise, Riccardo Tisci is forging a new path with Givenchy’s advertising. After nine seasons collaborating with Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Tisci tapped Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott for Givenchy’s fall-winter campaign, which features color photography, unexpected faces and a stronger French accent. It is slated to break in the July issue of L’Uomo Vogue for men’s wear and French Vogue’s August issue for women’s ready-to-wear. “It’s a new step,” Tisci said. “I wanted to give this feeling of going from a studio to reality. It’s important to give reality to women.”
Among the fierce and exotic beauties burning intensely from a gilded bedroom in the Château de Ferrières is Leonor Scherrer, daughter of retired couturier Jean-Louis Scherrer. “I’m completely in love with her,” Tisci enthused. “For me, she represents France in all senses: the elegance, the aristocracy, the darkness of France.” The stern-looking models Iris Strubegger and Ranya Mordanova fit Givenchy’s touch-chic mould: More surprising is Adriana Lima, who trades her Victoria’s Secret sexpot look for hard glamour, sprawled over a bed with the latest Givenchy bag, yet to be named. The campaign features separate visuals for eyewear and watches, while a trio of male models in naval-inspired fashions and glitter boots channel Tisci’s new Latin-inflected vision for men, Featuring Simon Nessman and Jakob Wiechmann, Givenchy’s menswear campaign will debut in the July issue of L’Uomo Vogue
Meanwhile, Tisci’s costume design duties continue to grow. The designer said he’s creating new looks for Madonna’s ongoing tour, and also for Antony Hegarty of Antony and the Johnsons as the band tours Europe this summer. Tisci described his creations for Antony as “men’s, women’s and couture all together” for a singer who is “between Klaus Nomi and Edith Piaf. His energy is so strong,” he enthused.

Ashley Olsen for VMan Summer 2009
Ashley Olsen stripped down to strike a few moody poses by Sebastian Faena for the upcoming Summer issue of V MAN, which hits newsstands this Thursday. She chatted with Marc Jacobs about her forthcoming men's collection for The Row, and the two designers also touched on her work ethic and the differences between her and Mary-Kate.
On doing a "celebrity line": "The way I look at it, I had a career as a child. I had a career in an industry in which the media kind of. . . they're obsessed with the young girl thing. But when I turned 18, I moved to New York, and I haven't really done anything to be a celebrity. I've been transitioning from acting as a kid to doing something that I'm choosing for myself — to be a part of the fashion industry. . . the outside perception is very different because you do have celebrity brands, people like Jessica Simpson and Kimora Lee Simmons, and those are celebrity brands because they have their names on them."
On working with Mary-Kate: "The Row is really something that I'm doing while my sister still wants to focus on acting. She's my partner in The Row, but she trusts me with the every day. I mean, I see her like ten times a day."
On being different from her twin sister: "When I was 14, 15, 16, 17, it was harder because the two of us were still very similar. We had to work through what's special about us, and then the media had to work through it. . . I've never been one to engage the media to say that I'm different. I actually did the opposite and I totally went internal. I was like, "See y'all!" I want to be behind the scenes, and I don't want people to know anything about my personal life. I have a job, I take it very seriously, and I work really hard."
