back to the streets of B.A. with models in tow: brazilians, some argentines, a canadian, a boy from leeds, and a girl from the cote d'ivoire in tow.

the lovely argentinian bombshell, yamila,





our sweet n surly brazilian, karim,







baby brazilian, phillipe serro,







the argentine stunner, sebastian raura,



canadian sweetheart, sarah ruba,



the boy from leeds, sam saffman





and my muse, nina keita, from the cote d'ivoire.



our cast pretty much kicks ass.



just sayin.

"gris" means gray -



gris actually IS the french word for gray,
so that's not just a pretty headline up there, it's the truth.

ha.


but in addition, i've noticed a surge in the color
(perhaps the mood, too)
in fashion recently.



i kind of adore it.

from lanvin pre-fall (above)
to kate moss en-route (below)


even the extremes of fashion seem to be playing into the trend.
witness the evolution of the banker-stripe gray flannel suit,


the conservative gray trench,

(i say mais oui)
and, well,
how does one describe rick owens' work?
(i heard glamour + grunge = glunge)


the evolution of dishabille . . .
luxe, ragged, and perfect.
