Francesca started her studies in fashion design at the Art Institute in her hometown, during these formative years she attended several courses in fashion design at CentralSaint Martins in London and at several colleges in the U.S.A comparing them with another world and another way of fashion.

Secret Room

2011-01-23T14:24:00.000Z

I love fashion photographers that go a little deeper than to just deliver the clothes themselves. To guide us into a world, they make us lush over the lighting, the setting, the mood and the girl herself.

These are the kinds of images you can keep forever. That folder in your mac book can hold onto these for years to come for constant inspiration. They go beyond a fashionable reference and go down the path of an escape for your visual aesthetics.

Enjoy these beautiful images photographed by Aneta Bartos for Zoo’s Spring 2010 Issue.

Venetia Scott

2010-12-21T11:42:00.001Z

Hi friends!
Absolutely my reference model as well as my favourite stylist, she is Venetia Scott, the central member of Marc Jacobs design team and the stylist who pushed her then boyfriend, Juergen Teller into the controversially raw style.
Her vintage college-kid style drawn from personal memories and 1970s thrift-shop leftovers is particularly visible in the Marc by Marc Jacobs line.

"I always want you to see the girl, and then have the clothes tell you something more about her"
says, Venetia Scott.

After a four-year stint at British Vogue, she met Teller. Together they began to rebel by captured young faces in road stories that narrowed the distinction between fashion and reportage almost to vanishing point. Their work was inspired by her shock of recognition when she first saw Larry Clark's Teenage Lust and a photograph by Joseph Szabo. Venetia also gathers thrift-shop clothes to mix with current fashion which were her autobiographical resurrections of kind of things her mother and hippy big sister wore in the seventies. Those theme recur in her work with Jacobs. After her split with Teller, she also started to take the photograph herself.
Venetia Scottworks with photographer like David Sims, Helmut Newton, Juergen Teller, Mario Sorenti and Stephen Shores. And in publications like Another Magazine, i-D, Self Service and W.

"I really don't think like other stylists. It's not about the fashion" "it's about a dream girl" she says.

Few nights ago I went to "Cogito, Ergo Sum", the exhibition of drawings by my friend designer Shuichi Mizuta performed at Kitsch Bar - SO What? organized by designer Marco Santaniello.

Exactly as in his clothes, even in his drawings,Shuichi wants to express the message of the dual personality of the man.

vania zouravliov

2010-11-26T23:02:00.001Z

I'm fascinated by these dark gothic illustrations. Born in Russia, Vania Zouravliov was inspired from an early age by influences as diverse as The Bible, Dante‚ Divine Comedy, early Disney animation and North American Indians. His elaborate illustrations are a mix of innocence, brutality, beauty and decadence, mixed with the colors and styles of communism in Eastern Europe.

patrick wolf

2010-10-27T15:11:00.007+01:00

Hi my dear friends..!

Today I want talk about this crazy young Brit singer-songwriter Patrick Wolf.

He instantly attracted my attention while I was looking for something new and stunning - for my mesmerizing research - ..Well, his look is definitely amazing! A hairdo in the style of Robert Pattinson – undefined texture and thickness, Wolf’s been carrot, flaming red and crisp white. Mixing couture pieces of feathers; constructed pieces and loads’ of jewellery he’ll stop at nothing to surprise and inspire me. His style is as distinct as a Halloween costume yet undeniably wearable. And Patrick knows how to put on a show! Running through his vocal pitch, adding flutes, balalaika and violins, it’s a theatrical sound and a great illusion that could only be delivered by a genius.

Really I can't stop listening this song!
