Video : Equipment Fall 2014

In addition to directing, shooting and styling Equipment's Fall 2014 campaign, not to mention starring in, Daria was also given free reign over the French clothing brand's video campaign.

Daria teamed up with friend Kenny Jossick to shoot the campaign near her home in the Irish countryside. It's not the first time her home has been opened up to the public eye, but the personal touches in this video make this campaign much more interesting. Her dog Strawballz even makes a cameo! 

You can read more about Daria's thoughts on the creative process here, and see the images from the campaign under the Ad Campaigns page. Or you can just replay the video ... I can't stop watching it.  

Diane Von Furstenberg Spring 2014 Campaign (+ Mango!)

Update The full campaign and behind the scenes video have been posted below! Very similar to the Fall 2013 campaign but considering that campaign was one of my favourites I love that they've continued the seventies glam look.

Daria's campaign count for this spring season is now six, with a reapeat appearance for Diane Von Furstenberg Spring 2014. I really liked the seventies glam of last season so I'm really excited that the brand decided to work with her again.

And here is the campaign video and behind-the-scenes video as well:

I also figured this would be a good time to share some unseen HQ shots of the DVF campaign from last season. If I recall correctly I don't think I've shared the last five on this blog but I threw them all in for a little flashback. This campaign was really unexpected but it turned out to be one of my favourites of last season. Hopefully this spring campaign can live up to the last one!

On another note, the Mango campaign is finally here! I'm really liking the look of this, despite the fact that its similar to some of Daria's work like some of her campaigns with Maiyet and Stefanel. Not much else to say other than I can't wait to see these in magazines.

Campaign News: Isabel Marant and Mango (and Céline!!!)

Update The first campaign image for Céline is here!!! Yes, three exclamation points because this is one campaign I anticipate year round, and at the moment everything looks superb, from art direction, to casting, to design layout. I've no time to go into more detail at the moment but will do as soon as more images come out. In the mean time ... !!!

Céline Spring 2014 in the Vogue UK February 2013 issue

The Isabel Marant spring 2014 campaign leaked, and no surprise here, its Daria for her sixth turn as face of the French brand.

Marant usually follows the same formula when it comes to their campaigns - a girl lounging around in perpetual boredom of some kind of unattainable coolness. For Marant the formula works - maybe I'll look just as cool, and my hair will look as perfectly messy, if I buy those silver lamé pants ... - and usually I'm all for that kind of style - Daria does do nonchalance quite well.

But this time I'm kinda bored, and a little underwhelmed, because really how many times can you run with the same concept (and same model!) without the results becoming staid ... maybe six campaigns. Hopefully the next photos (Marant usually releases three campaign images) will pique my interest but right now I'm about as excited with this campaign as I am for my three hour physics labs this semester. Your thoughts?

On to other news. Below is a preview of the Mango campaign with a behind the scenes video. Excited to see how these images turn out but so far they're reminding me of Daria's Maiyet campaigns. Thats three four campaigns so far for the Spring 2014 season!

Behind the Scenes with ET Canada

Apart from Linda Evangelista, Daria is Canada's most famous modelling export. So when she lands the cover of a local magazine, its big news. Which I love because it means interviews on interviews, and usually a segment on a cheesy news show. As such, ET Canada filmed a behind the scenes look of the Fashion cover story:

It seems that this editorial was shot around the same time that Daria was in town for the Lancome "Roses by ..." exhibit. I'm excited to see how the biker theme translates onto print - you can never really go wrong with models and bikes can you?

Fashion usually hits newsstands at the beginning of the month so I'll try to get this scanned if scans don't already start popping up!

Behind the Scenes of Salvatore Ferragamo Fall 2013

In case you haven't forgotten (amidst all of the editorial excitement) a few months ago Daria landed her first fall campaign for Salvatore Ferragamo. To tide you off until the September issues are released, here is a behind the scenes video of the campaign shoot in London. 

This is Daria's third time working for the label (Spring 2011, Fall 2011). I've also added the entire campaign under the Ad Campaigns page so make sure to check it out as there are some new shots!

Vogue Espana June 2013 Update

Bad news for Daria fans! Looks like Daria won't be appearing on the cover of the June 2013 issue of Vogue Espana, as was expected. Anja Rubik is the coverstar this month.

Fortunately we do get a candid of Daria promoting a special edition t-shirt for this issue of Vogue Espana, so I'm guessing she is either getting just an editorial in this issue or the sneak peek was for the July cover. A cover would have been nice to see at this time so this is a little disappointing ... but it is only May! Fingers crossed for the July cover.

Vogue's "Punk Stories" : Behind The Scenes

Vogue recently released an online feature highlighting the punk theme of this years Met Gala. The Met Gala has come and gone but more images are being released of Daria and Cass Bird's contribution to the affair. Cass uploaded a few behind the scenes images to her tumblr which you can see below.

  

You can rewatch the "Punk Stories" video below :

Lancome x Never Undressed

Lancome has teamed up with beauty website Never Undressed to highlight their latest product Lancôme Teint Visionnaire Skin Perfecting Make-up Duo. Daria plays the muse in this collaboration "In Her Skin", wearing nothing but a two step foundation and signature leather jacket (this time its red!).

We get a beautiful video out of it of which I've made some screenshots below. This shoot was filmed by Patrick Demarchelier. Enjoy!

Flashback Friday : Hong Kong Luxe Spring 2002 Runway

Remember the Flashback Friday pictures I posted a while ago of Daria in her first runway shows for Comrags? I ended up finding a bunch of rare runway pics again! These are from the Spring 2002 Hong Kong Trade show (also known as Hong Kong Luxe), a showcase of up and coming Chinese designers that was presented in New York in 2001.

So far I was only aware of one picture from the show but knew that Daria had walked in more looks. And now we get to see photos of these looks!



Ahh the early naughties. If there were ever a time where cowboy hats and denim flowering vests were acceptable (this can be debated) this was it. Daria looks so baby-faced in these! I've always liked her with darker hair so I prefer this colour on her, but definitely not the cut.

There have also been a few videos released of this show, one of which you can see below. To my knowledge this was the only show Daria walked in before the September 11 attacks on New York, after which her debut Spring 2002 season was cut short.


It's always so awesome finding rare pictures like these and even better sharing them with you! Hope you had a good laugh at the styling and have a great weekend everyone!

Punk Stories : Daria by Cass Bird

Daria and photographer Cass Bird team up once again for a short video, and this time it's for Vogue's "Punk Stories", a series of web films put out highlighting the recent punk revival in fashion and the theme of this year's Met Gala.

"For our third installment of “Punk Stories,” director Cass Bird shot model Daria Werbowy channeling the many faces and fashions of punk—from a Billy Idol-esque bleached crop to a perfectly spiked and studded leather jacket—see if you can catch all six of her looks in our video." - vogue.com

Update New candids added to the post!


I love this. I don't think I'll ever get bored of Cass's work with Daria because she's always switching it up. Daria has been modeling for nearly two decades but we had yet to see her channel her inner punk before this video. She definitely pulls off not just the looks but attitude as well. And how awesome does she look behind the microphone?

There were also a few pictures released along with the video, which you can see below. I don't know if they'll ever be in print but I'm assuming this is only for the online website - Vogue can only go so punk!


No word yet on whether or not Daria will be attending this years Met Gala (on May 6) but she's been absent the past two years and big parties aren't really her scene so I doubt it. But for now enjoy the vid!
