The Strange Music Videos of Brigitte Bardot

Most people know of Brigitte Bardot as the sunbathing 1960's icon from France. But the ballerina turned actress/model also had a very quirky singing career. Accompanying this career were a series of bizarre music videos, each one being very peculiar in very French way. Bardot may not have been a musical genius, but her songs are quite "catchy", and they do have something charmingly cute about them. Bardot's videos and musical career will live on forever in an air of idiosyncratic, wacky, but quintessentially French way.

Her Harley Davidson music video must have been the inspiration behind the recent Chanel Resort Collection finale - Georgia May Jagger on a motorcycle.



Go here to see the Harley Davidson video, since I cannot embed it...









Of course, the original comic strip video is better than the "making of", but i couldn't find one that I could embed. You can find the original on youtube if you're interested.

The Great Kate

Kate Moss! She can model, she can design, she now she can sing.

Reminiscing

Stella McCartney's fall 2008 collection was so great. The cut out dresses, the little bags, the shoes... Mostly the cut out dresses.

Stella McCartney is the daughter of infamous Paul McCartney of The Beatles.

Circus

The song on the video below reminded me of a circus and when thinking about the circus I remembered this lovely editorial from vogue italia! So listen to the video as you browse!

Shake a Fist

I love hot chip. I love this video. The special effects make it really exciting, but I wish the clothes were as good as the music and video. The t-shirts and berets are cute, but rather plain and boring. We all know simplicity is nice, but for a video like this I would like to see some clothing matching the greatness of the music.



Hot Chip(the band from which the song is from), have their own style. So naturally It makes it all the music all the more better.

How to Dress for a Rock Concert

There's simply no other way. Kate Moss at Led Zeppelin's reunion:

So please put away your tawdry band tees, skinny jeans, and canvas flats.

I finished the skirt that I was talking about in an earlier post and now I'm to the part with sewing the feathers on. And my next project is to bleach a pair of jeans like Habitual's tye dye ones. And then that bubble wrap dress...

I think Vlada Roslyakova is one of my favorite models. Some backstage photos:
