About.

My photo
Visual Journalism Student/ Photographer/Fashion Blogger. I love finding beauty where others don't, and I believe art can be found almost everywhere. Old and new, we can learn from all, and getting to a place where you can realize that is probably the most freeing a person can feel ever. But basically I love Fashion, and the designers are the artists with visions and their canvas' are us and the world, and I love helping spreading that message. "Ultimately isn't that fashion is about? We're all a bunch of big kids playing dress up." Feel free to e-mail me @ andrewwwhester@gmail.com to talk about anything!

Marfa Fashion Week



Berlin based artists Michael Elmgreen and Ignar Dragset
are responsible for this piece of art (above, bottom) in MARFA, Texas,
and more importantly for this piece of art
that has ended up all over the web and even on Gossip Girl!



I first noticed the pictures of the store on my friend Mary's blog.
I didn't recognize the print from Gossip Girl (above) had anything to do
with Elmgreen and Dragset's work until I saw it again in Interview Magazine.
I then saw that canvas prints on sale for $300 with proceeds going
to the Art Production Fund, and then I began my investigation.


Check out an interview with Michael Elmgreen and Ignar Dragset!


This is one piece I will have to get,
and will be obsessing over it until I do!

Vote for me to be the official Flickr reporter at New York Fashion Week

Welcome


I should be writing, and bringing you fashion, celebrity, and art news,
(as in the photo below)
but I am instead photoshopping my New Year's
resolutions onto an Etch-a-Sketch.
(in the lowER photo below)


ENJOY!
Yay 2010!!!

Oh LaLa


Lady Gaga has signed a deal with Polaroid to help develop cameras and techniques and hopefully re-vamp the Instant Camera which stopped production of the product in 2008.

Burberry Twins


The Watsons are taking over the BURBERRY Spring 2010
Ad campaign. Emma Watson, and brother Alex are featured in some
of the shots released today to the public.



The backdrop scenery is great.
The nice serene lilac wall with the almost matching
wrapped trench is genius.
Bravo Christopher!

So Happy I Could Die

RA RA AH AH AH
Doll designer/artist Veik
has been creating "Gaga" inspired outfits for the Original Barbie™
for some time now when you look at his Flickr page at
the dates of his pictures,
but he is just now creating a buzz within the "fashion" press.

His work is insane and perfected to a tee...
down to the Alexander McQueen shoes used in the "Bad Romance"
video to the Jean-Charles-de-Castelbajac "Kermit" jacket.

Here (below) are some pictures of some the inspired looks
he has designed for "Garbie©". :-)

What's Black and White, has Studs, and Half-Naked? (A Givenchy Ad)


The new Spring Givenchy Ads have been released and
it reminded me that if there is one thing
that I could ask have for this Spring,
...it would be a pair of the Givenchy Studded Gladiator sandals!

(Above: worn by Jesus Luz in the show)

Probably retailing for around $1,999...
yet they will be an accessory to have forever!

Surfs Up, Dude!


I don't know how to surf, but
If I needed an incentive to surf...

This would be my #1 reason.
& at a reasonable $2,995! ;-)
Oh, Proenza...


& One, & Two, & Gaga

& a Happy New Year!


Well...I did not get the mink LANVIN scarf for Christmas,
but I did get a hold of a piece (of what I believe will be of historic remembrance later on),
especially from my generation!

NOTJUSTALABEL.com did a Celebrity Christmas sale this Holiday
with pieces from designers that celebrities have made famous...
& pieces from Lady Gaga were on display...so I had to look!


I decided that I had to have the aluminum eyepatch
from designer AND_i
that was made for the "Paparazzi" music video
that Alexander Skarsgard from True Blood wears!

Now all I need is someone to get the
Jeremy Scott look that Gaga wears from Opening Ceremony
and we could re-create the scene from the video!



Check out designer AND_i & Jeremy Scott!

Alabama in the House.


Alabama native, and designer of Alabama Chanin, Natalie Chanin,
designed the tree skirt for the Obama family/White House tree
this holiday season.



I just thought this was such an exciting thing to see, but I was not surprised because Chanin's pieces are so close to art that it is something that would be perfect for the White House tree.

Like Sugarplums Dancing in my Head.

In a Dream World...
These would be on my Christmas List.





The shoes & wallet could be possibilities if I had not already given my parents my list,
but the LANVIN Mink scarf is just a dream!

For the Love of Vuitton
