pictures of the day

When fashion meets photography, creativity arises. There are some pictures that captured moments that are so witty and memorable. Here are some of my favorite fashion photos.
(Harper's Bazaar September 2009)

This is Oscar de la Renta with one of his gowns and Oscar the Grouch. Harper's Bazaar did a spread of a couple of designers with the characters from Sesame Street. I like the pairing of Oscar and Oscar the Grouch.

Marc Jacobs with Miss Piggy. He designed a couple of outfits for Miss Piggy that then translated to women's fashion. I like this picture because I loved Miss Piggy growing up.
The opening scene of "Breakfast at Tiffanys". This picture/scene has been recreated into posters and such.

When Andy gets transformed in The Devil wears Prada. She emerges in a full Chanel outfit. Every person who has ever seen this movie gasps at this scene.

Kate Hudson with her son Ryder in Harper's Bazaar. I love this shoot because it depicts Kate as a glam mother in New York City. It captures New York City life with the taxis and bakeries. I love the dress she's wearing in this picture and her son is so cute!
British Vogue 1998, This picture is just lovely. The dress compliments the background of hints of blue hues. The detailing of the spiral staircases balances the smoothness of the dress and the cracks of the wall compliments the model's skin. This picture is like the ying and yang of baby blue
