Watch The Exclusive Premiere Of "Nonna: Paris" The First Chapter In A Film Collaboration Between Giu Giu And Hamadou Frédéric Baldé

Giuliana Leila Raggiani and Hamadou Frédéric Baldé, met in LA in March 2016, and immediately began a collaboration. This merge of their two creative worlds, manifested in the form of a film series, called “NONNA” (the name of giu giu’s reproduction of her grandmother’s original turtleneck). Hamadou’s perspective possesses an inspirational contrast; a balance of being unfiltered and honest, yet sensitive and dream-like at the same time, meshing effortlessly with giu giu. With little planning, they serendipitously traveled to the same places -- Paris, Morocco, Los Angeles, New York, and Tokyo -- and shot in each location. And after much evolution, the film has now become an expression of movement between a multitude of ages, races, and genders. In each city Hamadou and Giuliana traveled to, they encountered beautiful, real people. Each with their own story, and special "essence," in the way they view life. Each belonging to the limitless world Hamadou and Giuliana envision, where each human is interconnected and perceived equally. The Nonna turtleneck became the common thread woven through each chapter of the film. The turtleneck was used to show the body, through natural forms of movement (krump, ballet, contemporary/modern, running, walking, dunking, yoga, and even subtle movements, such as the movement of water, a blink of an eye, or lifting a finger). The turtleneck is timeless, recycling itself in this generation. Each city represents a different color from the original Nonna collection. What they anticipated to be a short fashion video, grew to be something deeper and unexpectedly more profound, and their collaboration took on a life of its own. The duo has been presenting the full 20-minute piece at exclusive screenings in the various cities featured in the film. Otherwise, it is launching online as a series, each chapter releasing individually, with the première of the first city, PARIS. Ultimately, the main intention of Hamadou & giu giu is to use “Nonna” as a catalyst in promoting a universal concept of love, during a time when it is needed most in the world.

Maya Thurman-Hawke Stars In "Far From Here" AllSaints' Spring Summer 2017 Campaign Shot In Woodstock

Introducing Maya Hawke in our Spring 17 Campaign Film. Shot on location in Woodstock, NY, our latest short film 'Far From Here' debuts our upcoming Spring 17 Collection.

UK-based AllSaints has decided to eschew the hype of New York Fashion week and escape to Woodstock to shoot their Spring Summer 2017 campaign. The resultant fashion film, entitled Far From Here, provides a breakout role for Maya Thurman-Hawke – yes, daughter of Uma and Ethan. AllSaints' new collection is an ode to endless summers and carries on in their tradition of sartorial rebellion. Creative director Wil Beedle says, “The collection itself is as much about escapism as the film we made with Maya. The starting point was about escaping the city in search of nature – exploring and contemporizing pastoral textures such as dentelle and broderie anglaise. But before long, the collection had also taken us from the countryside into the youthful innocence of the stars and outer space.” The film also features a piece of music by the great Cherokee folk singer Karen Dalton - recorded at the iconic Bearsville Studios, near Woodstock, in 1971. See more from the collection here. 

Supreme Honors The Late Dash Snow For Their Autumn/Winter 2016 Collection and Skate Deck Series

Dash Snow was an American multidisciplinary artist born in New York in 1981. With his charismatic personality and spontaneous output, he became a pivotal figure in downtown culture from a young age, embodying its creative and subversive spirit. Writing graffiti prolifically as SACE, he was a member of the world famous IRAK crew. Snow’s gallery work would prove similarly influential. Intent on immortalizing fleeting moments in the lives of he and his friends, he took a prodigious number of photographs that have been exhibited and published worldwide. In addition to photos, installations, zines and video, Snow developed a distinctive collage style that splattered tabloid clippings with bodily fluids and glitter. He passed away in 2009 at the age of 27. Supreme will release the Dash Snow collection of skate decks, sold as a set, alongside a T-shirt featuring the artwork of Dash Snow both in-stores and online on September 8. Japan will see a parallel release on September 10. photo courtesy of Supreme
