Carine Roitfeld: 7 Cardinal Scenes

When I read the artist statement by Rebecca Dayan yesterday I was reminded of the piece “7 Cardinal Scenes” from the Vogue Hommes International Spring/Summer 2008 issue under the direction of Carine Roitfeld. Asked to submit an inspiring erotic image, the seven subjects happily complied. The editorial opens as follows: “It is a well-known fact that erotic images chanced upon whilst flicking through a magazine or visiting an exhibition sometimes become ingrained on their beholders’ minds and imaginations. In a ‘Vogue Homes International’ exclusive, seven stars reveal the powerful visions that stoked and fired their libidos.”

TERRY RICHARDSON

“I had this poster over my bed, in California, when I was ten years old. Every morning I’d open my eyes to this vision of Farrah Fawcett. Her hair, her smile, the colors on the cover pulled taut behind her. It looked like an ice cream ad. I also remember vividly that you could see her breasts through her t-shirt… this image made a lasting impression on me.”

DENNIS HOPPER

The Postman Always Rings Twice, the sex scene on the kitchen table, with Jack Nicholson, and Jessica Lange in beige stocking and garters. Unforgettable.”

ED RUSCHA

“I see the mechanical world as a source of eroticism. An example would certainly be a shiny piston in a cylinder. I go for this photograph taken by Bettina Hubby. The subject has all the mechanics necessary to be considered erotic. But the dilemma should be which do you attend to first?”

JEFF KOONS

“Looking at The Origin of the World, there’s a sense of birth and desire at the same time, an awareness of your own mortality. It is the alpha and the omega.”

HANIF KUREISHI

“Picasso’s Bathers is erotic not because of its overt sexual nature, but because of its abandonment, the amount of enjoyment he suggests the women are having, and, of course, because of the pleasure Picasso himself — and the viewer with him — is taking in looking at these women.”

GUS VAN SANT

“Hippolyte Flandrin’s Figure d’Etude is an early erotic image for me. I saw it in a book in high school. There have been many others like it and in ‘Paranoid Park’ we have a similar image.”

TOM FORD

“The nude wrestling scene from the film Women in Love with Alan Bates and Oliver Reed, 1969. For some strange reason I accompanied my parents to this film in the theatre when I was eight years old.There is this scene where the two actors take off their clothes and wrestle naked in front of a fireplace. I was riveted and not really sure why, but I knew that I found this very interesting.”

Vogue Paris April 2001: Pose Combat

Vogue Paris April 2001: Pose Combat
By Renee Hernandez

If there is one style that has wielded incredible influence, I would have to say it is the combat chic look. Its claim to fashion fame came from the babes of the 1960s like Loretta Swit as Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan in M*A*S*H and Jane Fonda photographed in US army surplus clothing. Then in the 80s Michael Jackson took it over-the-top with his custom made, bedecked military jackets. From utilitarian to glam, it’s a style that is constantly evolving.

Somewhere in the midst of that spectrum is the editorial "Pose Combat" from April 2001 Vogue Paris. It is everything combat chic. Stylist Anastasia Barbieri gives us all the classics: camouflage colors, cargo and parachute pants, aviator glasses, and all-in-one flying suits. Her styling shows how to feminize the combat look by using sleek sexy pumps, snug-fitting tanks, gold military dog tags, and leather corsets. Models Erin Wasson and Eleonora Bosé rock short, slicked back hair with nothing more than smudged black eyeliner for a pure sexy-cool look. I don’t really want to imagine photographer Terry Richardson behind the scenes directing this photo shoot but I do love the simple yet aggressive quality to these images.

Carine Roitfeld For David Webb

Jeweler David Webb hired a fierce team to create his image for Fall 2011, the company's first advertising campaign to be produced in more than two decades: Carine Roitfeld, stylist; Alex Wiederin of Buero New York, creative director; Terry Richardson, photographer; and Eniko Mihalik, model. Watch the brief video filmed during the shoot for a look at this gem of a campaign although don't bother searching for Carine as she does not appear. Unless those are her hands...
