Trend Report S/S 2011 - The Fall of the House of Usher


 Marguerite Gance as Madeleine Usher

Back to the trend reports... White dresses were every where. Ever since I watched La Chute de la  Maison d'Usher (1928) by Epstein & Buñuel - after Poe's short story The Fall of the House of Usher  (1839) - white dresses creep  me out a bit. Watching the movie was a creative prep for a haute  couture shoot with the immensely talented  Raphael Gianelli Meriano for 34 Magazine, for which I  used to be the fashion director. The story has been filmed  by many directors, but the  Epstein/ Buñuel version, is seriously one of the scariest movies I've seen. Spooky but  crazy  inspiring visuals...

Do you wear white dresses during summer? .... Yes, I do.
