AN ODE TO NO ONE A/W 11 COLLECTION | EVIDENCE OF EVOLUTION




    On Thursday night, I attended An Ode To No One's A/W 11 Collection at a cool basement space - District 01. With the company of my buddies - Emily, Dana and Xiaohan, we were given 3D glasses to look at the prints while the room was filled with fluro lights.

    The collection is inspired by Charles Darwin’s theories on evolution with a modern twist. We have seen 3D movies, 3D in magazines and billboards last year, but now, designer of An Ode To No One - Adi , steps it up by creating a 3D digital print with what seems to be like butterfly's wings or some winged creatures in pink, blue, red and purple which stimulates the eyes.

    I would love to try those leggings! You know me and love of black with prints!











ck one | SS11 CAMPAIGN | STEVEN MEISEL





    This is Calvin Klein's teaser of one of the biggest digital interactive for ck one launching on March 1st, across a whole range of mediums including online, print, outdoor and mobile. The campaign is shot by one of our favourite photographers, Steven Meisel, who also shot the original campaigns of ck one back in 1994. It will be huge! The campaign will include over 30 individuals of both men and women that represent our generation and celebrating individuality. Big names include Lara Stone, Abbey Lee Kershaw, and Bambi Northwood-Blyth.

    “The ck one collection is not about wearing clothes the way you’ve been told, it’s about making them your own. We put the pieces in there in all sizes, from XXXL to XS; it’s not about the perfect size - it’s a play on proportion and androgyny,” Kevin Carrigan, the global creative director of Calvin Klein Jeans and ck Calvin Klein, explains to Vogue. “Girls were wearing jeans that were baggy and far too big, or wearing oversized shirts as dresses, they made the collection their own.”

    It is an experimental global campaign where people can connect, creating conversations on platforms like Facebook, creating and uploading their own videos which becomes part of the campaign. This is a great idea as the social online media is growing rapidly and Calvin Klein is such a modern brand that is keeping up and listening to their buyers and audiences.

    I think it's quite smart to use such a simple concept and diverse individuals in the campaign where everyone will find a connection no matter race,, culture, gender, age, style, interests, etc. It is a powerful marketing tool that I think will be quite successful, giving the opportunity to the audience the ability to participate.

    Personally love these videos!

    WWD:
    "Calvin Klein Inc., which is turning ck one into a full lifestyle brand, has conceived a global advertising campaign for spring that encompasses TV, print, the Internet and social media — all things that concern ck one’s targeted customer.

    CKI declined to disclose the cost of the campaign, but said it is the largest digital initiative in its history. Directed by Steven Meisel, who did the original ck one fragrance campaign with Kate Moss and a gaggle of other Nineties faces, the new black-and-white ads are an evolution in the spirit of the current generation, centered around the new ckone.com site.

    CRK Advertising and consulting creative director Fabien Baron conceived the ad. There are four different iterations — for Jeans, Underwear, Fragrance and one for all categories — with more than 60 differently edited variations, some of which specifically target Asia. A key purpose is to drive traffic to ckone.com, which offers profiles of the cast and background content, and lets visitors upload their own ck one video versions. The site, available in 11 languages, will also have a global store, and custom mobile apps available for the iPhone, Android and Symbian."
