These Aren’t Jeans

The above icy-pastel lounge chairs were created by ever-so-famous jean company Acne. The Swedish designers premiered their first foray into furniture at the Hotel Pozzo di Borgo, which is basically a really nice place in Paris, France that Uncle Karl Lagerfeld calls his home away from home.  We’re really enjoying the pastel color palette, as unpractical as it is, but I’m not blown away by the design so much. The lounge and chairs seem a bit … awkward.

But they look ridiculously comfortable. Kind of like the jeans.

Winter Winds and Karl

The Godfather shot a new winter ad campaign in blustery, bleak surroundings recently. Black and white, like most of his work, was the theme. Models posed on iced-over grounds with the blinding beauty of the aurora borealis as a backdrop. Only Karl Lagerfeld can produce winter imagery so basic yet so rich.

We could have fun with those icicles…
