After last season’s Segway from the Chanel Sport collection, many of us were asking, how will they top that? South Korean car designer Jinyoung Jo had the answer with the Chanel Fiole Concept Car, an ultra-sleek and ultra-chic three seater. Check out the video below, which is better than most real car commercials of late!

The Core Values campaign is some of my favourite advertising and photography. Let’s take a look at the previous ads in the series:

Farrow & Ball wallpaper and a chair in Elanbach fabric feature in Jane Whitfield’s French country home.

After Paris Fashion Week, everyone involved needs a much deserved rest. While Marc and Lorenzo are living it up on vaction in Brazil, Jane Whitfield, Jacobs’ right-hand woman at Vuitton, relaxes in her quaintly chic country home near Versailles.

As a designer of womenswear, shoes, bags and accesories for the past 12 years at Vuitton, it goes without saying that Whitfield has a sharp instinct for style, and has transcended it perfectly to her living space — a 19th century building created from two houses joined together.

Whitfield has created an interior that looks effortless in its space. Colours are kept relatively neutral to compliment the abundance of greenery surrounding the home. Modern furniture such as Eames rockers live in harmony with Louis XVI-style occasional chairs in Elanbach of Wales washed chintz. More Herman Miller Eames chairs can be found accompanying a huge Astier de Villatte table in the dining room. The look is all pulled together with Farrow & Ball wallpaper in various damask patterns and colours. This is truly the way to combine the best of contemporary style with timeless classics.

Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot have done it again with another fantastic campaign for Longchamp, shot in Los Angeles with models Kate Moss and Sasha Pivovarova. The tonal range of colours is the perfect backdrop for the luxurious Longchamp accessories and ready to wear.

For your viewing pleasure, here is the making-of video:

Be sure to head over to Longchamp and download your choice of wallpapers and a screensaver featuring images of the campaign.

New Zealand born illustrator James Dignan has been commissioned to create these advertisements for a Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2009 campaign. Hopefully these are just proofs and not the final representations because the products look awfully dull and are not representational of their actual colours. Perhaps this was an artistic consideration but I really don’t think these ads highlight the product to the best advantage. Judge for yourself, with the other ad images below:

I knew their was something I liked about this campaign. Something in the photos that is almost Terry Richardson-esque. Oh wait… they were shot by Terry Richardson! The style of photography just hints towards his signature look, without giving too much away though.

Oh, and Angela Lindvall can really work 5th Avenue in a bikini, no?
