This face.

This face is the next campaign face for whoever is lucky enough to snatch her up. Keep an eye out for Ana M.

Neon Rock, Metallic Paper, Blue Scissors.

So we here at Rochambeau have been strenuously putting together the new lookbooks for our Fall 2009 campaign. That's right, lookbook is plural. Our very first post here at the Rochamblog was the award-winning Spring 2009 version. This go 'round we decided to make 3 distinct books, each with a different theme. Firstly, there's the Neon book (my favorite) that utilizes neon spray paint, electric tape, neon mylar, etc. Secondly, we have the Metallic book. It has a lot of real metallic paints with chemical reactions to make it oxidize with that greenish patina. Lastly, there's the blue book. Most of the pictures have a blueish tint to them, and are cut and pasted in interesting ways. Eventually, when we get closer to launching the line, we'll have full pdf's of all three to share. In the meantime, take a look at the behind-the-scenes making-of...

Ana Sui Fashion Week

What comes to mind when you see what Ana Sui had in store for everyone at Fashion Week?
Me? I see cowgirl hippie flapper. I'll give you mad doll hairs if I'm wrong.
These pictures don't show it, but she did have some kickin' tights that had cool prints on them.

Natasha, Poly and Isabeli rock out Vogue's March issue.

Not only do these models know how to work that camera, the styling of this shoot is just amazing.
Am I the only one who's reminded of Coneheads?

Behind the scenes.

Take a look at this video of a behind-the-scenes look at our friends over at Still Life. They make hand-made hats that are incredible. We even used several at our photoshoot for our upcoming Fall 2009 collection. You can visit their website here.

Blankoat, not your average blanket or coat.

Being fashionable males, we here at the Rochambeau offices thought that the Snuggies we've been seeing so much about were a bit tacky. Enter the Blankoat. You can see that this hybrid is "A very very large length of knitted natural Icelandic Wool knotted and looped of embossed testudine shields corrupted by placement of two colossal Sleeves and edged around with a shell stitch." Need it, want it. Go HERE to get your very own.
