Casting Director Douglas Perrett (COACD) takes us on a rural upstate getaway in his just-released photo journal “Living the Dream”. Vivid imagery shot by photographer Jonathan Rutherford captures an authentic slice of life at the Delaware County Fair in Walton, NY.

Known for his eclectic street casting for clients from Levi’s to Proenza Schouler, Douglas lends his perspective while out scouting at such an unexpected location. In context, it’s hard to look at the images and not briefly picture the fairgoers as editorial muses.

Russian runway superstar Valery Kaufman storms the industry with great effect and for July 2016, photographer Sebastian Kim wins with the 21 year-old top model covering Vogue Russia. Stylist Natasha Royt cues lace and floral appliqués, pleat details, and dusk tones from Chanel, Céline, and Loewe for a very northernly streetwear appeal. Vi Sapyyapy and Kristi Matamoros team up to tease out Valery’s femininity with wispy hair and a dewy glow—entirely effortless, romantic, and cleverly chic.

Interview Magazine enlists photographer Craig McDean for an excitingly alternative fashion tale in the June/July 2016 issue. Karl Templer builds out the natural eccentricity of Russian model twins Lia and Odette Pavlova to punk-goth maxima in stylish selections featuring Raf Simons, Gucci, and Vetements. The hyper-realist approach to beauty by Shay Ashual and Mark Carrasquillo provide an anti all-American dream reminiscent of Edward Scissorhands.

Parisian label Peet Dullaert launches their FW16 campaign today. The six set of doubled-up images shot by Robbert Jacobs features a matching set of models, Ursula Hendrickx (who walked his SS16 show during her debut season in Paris) and newface Charles Berckmoes–both in Dullaert’s neatly frilled and a-gender tailored pieces. From the counterpart casting to the visual repetition to the clothes themselves, all are demonstrative of the label’s forward-thinking principles. On this, Dullaert notes the essentials, “The incorporation of interchangeable designs in our collections, emphasizing the liberating perspectives we believe in, regardless of whether it is mens or womenswear. We reflect on what is so very essential today: Non-labelling, diversity and the freedom of your very own choices.” Check out the images below exclusively here first and see the full collection here.
