The latest in the series of Prada’s awe inspiring advertisement campaign is its new 2012 spring one musing on the vintage cars with gorgeous Natasha Poly, Elise Crombez, and Guinevere Van Seenus modeling for the label.

The muscle cars and the hot rods of the bygone epoch showcasing inferno engraved in the body along with pointedfins are what the collection motifs points at. Models are found flaunting the retro and the pop mores in the labels vivid campaign.

Prada’s all-time favorite Steven Meisel is the photographer who has captured this campaign outstandingly by his lens. The girls have been shot on an open location focusing gas station where they are standing inclined on the vintage cars parked at the location, rendering very imperial look to it as whole.

The brand has tried to bring the iconographic language of Americana. Vivacious and young faces like Ymre Stiekema and Katryn Kruger are also showcased in the labels Spring campaign along with the Miu Miu lass Guinevere Van Seenus and the other two.

If you wonder about Lady Gaga’s unmatched eccentricity, then chalk it up to Nicola Formichetti, a force behind the bizarreness of pop star minus her stage persona.

The 34 years old stylist turned creative director of Thierry Mugler is an emerging fashion influence worldwide, gaining popularity from his outlandish collaboration with Lady Gaga since her dawn as the monarch of high fashion. A fantasist Nicola and his otherworldly theatrical sensibilities might create wonders but it’s the digital savvy in him which rocks the cradle.

Quite unlikely, where everyone would imagine Lady Gaga to be his muse, Nicola finds digital media inspiring enough to churn his creative juices. In a recent interview to a fashion magazine, Nicola says that he is using the digital world to invigorate the house of Mugler.

Though his pre-show and post-show tweeting might be blamed of losing exclusivity but it’s his loyalty to fans which keeps him going. So he blogs live before, during and after his runway shows, allowing folks at home, including 100,000 plus twitter followers a preview before any fashion editor gets to see it.

Its Nicola’s imaging of social media and digital world as the chief proponent what keeps him heading towards the digital revolution where he reaches out to his fans just by a click and turning eccentricity into a popular culture.

Either its fashion or food, when cooked at home, it’s distinctively close-to-the-heart. The ‘Cooked’ Shirts by Etro, using run of the mill eatables are a testament to it. All you need is a white shirt and a nose to sniff some good quality coffee beans and blueberries.

The project features three distinct styles to morph your classy white shirt into a fashion statement, all in the comfort of your Kitchen, and pockets of course. These reworked shirts stamp the charm and exclusivity of DIY fashion, with no compromise with style at all.

Have you ever thought that those slippery coffee nuggets you play with on your kitchen shelves can create some interesting fashion, besides long nights, sexual drive and all? Of course they can. All you need to do is to grind some 900 grams of coffee beans and prepare 6 liters of coffee and immerse your white cotton shirt into the mixture fully. Let the shirt soak for 8 hours and hang it to dry.

If fawn doesn’t interest you much, then try blueberries. Garner a kilogram of blueberries and form a layer of them with 200gms of sugar in an ovenproof baking dish. Pour 150 ml of blueberry juice over the bottom layer of berries and sugar. Fold the shirt and place it on the blueberry layer in the baking dish. Further cover the shirt with remaining berries and 200gms of more sugar. Pour 150ml of blueberry juice over the shirt and berries. Bake in preheated oven at a temperature of 170 degrees for about 40 minutes. Finally remove the shirt from oven and hang it on a hanger to let it cool.

The very last of the three DIY processes is to cook a shirt in salt. This time you need some 6 kilograms of coarse cooking salt and pour it into an ovenproof baking dish to form a 1 cm thick layer. Fold the shirt and place it on the top of the layer in the dish. Completely cover the shirt with remaining cooking salt and bake it in the oven at the temperature of 180 degrees for about 40 minutes. Afterwards remove the shirt and let it cool.
