News: The week that was: Kim Kardashian does bondage & Karl Lagerfeld naked

What a week. We’ve had sun, rain and a great deal of good old British moaning about both. Whilst we try and forget the weather for one moment, tricky we know, there’s also been one or two eyebrow raising events in the big bad world of fashion and celebrity too.
Kim Kardashion doing her bit for high end lingerie... or not
If Louis Vuitton, Giles Deacon and, ahem, Paris Hilton, weren’t enough to persuade you that bondage is going to be huge this coming season – maybe Kim Kardashian is just the ticket to cement the trend? Seen here in one of the first ever 3D editorial shoots, the amply bodacious reality TV personality somehow manages to make studded Burberry and Motilo favourite, Bordelle, look naff. We’re sure Justin Beiber would love to adorn his walls with such a spread, but somehow these shots manage to turn the titillating into the tawdry. Our bondage advice? Approach with caution. Rest assured, Motilo will be there when it’s time for you to buckle up, providing our usual indispensable styling advice.

Karl Lagerfeld bares all in St Tropez
In other news, everyone’s favourite German, our Karl (Lagerfeld obviously) has done the unthinkable whilst summering in St Tropez: taken his eponymous shades off, and been photographed doing so no less. For some less aquainted with the Diet Coke fuelled fashion patriarch, this may seem like a perfectly trivial snippet of information to report, but to those who know, this is almost more shocking than Cavalli’s budgie smuglers.
To take things up a notch, and away from all that is scantily clad, the world wide web has bestowed on us mere mortals the rarest of pleasures – a herd of international Vogue editors actually speaking and smiling! The ultimate power femmes, from Anna Wintour to Emmanuelle Alt and our very own Alexander Shulman have taken part in a short promo for the upcoming ‘Fashion’s Night Out’ to take place on September 8th. Repping from their respective global positions, such vocal enthusiasm is a rare treat, and does indeed cause our bubble of retail therapy and champagne induced excitement to rise somewhat.
What film costumes should always be like
Lastly, iconic filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock’s first ever film has been discovered in a secret chest of treasure, buried in a murky cave just off the coast of the Caribbean. Only joking. Whilst we don’t doubt that Johnny Depp would have gladly stumbled across this cinematic gem, it was in fact found by a very clever team of film buffs at the New Zealand Film Archive. The silent movie entitled The White Shadow dates from 1923 and is said to be a key insight into the then 24 year old Hitchcock’s early working methods. Whilst we’re sure the plot is captivating, we can’t help but be in ever such a flap over these costume stills – who needs words when you have characters dressed like this?
