Azzedine Alaia spring 2009 lookbook - Kasia Struss, photo: Willy Vanderperre, stylist: Joe McKenna

Kasia Struss shot the Azzedine Alaia spring 2009 lookbook with photographer Willy Vanderperre and stylist Joe McKenna on November 24, 25 and 26, 2008 in Paris.

On The Imagist, Wayne ponders Azzedine Alaia's business model as the past, the present and the future of the fashion industry -

There is a lot of veneration going on in fashion but in the case of Azzedine Alaia, that aura of awe and respect is more than deserved. Beyond the proposition of his inarguable talent, there is also a great blueprint behind his business which a lot of young designers might want to look at as an ideal. No seasonal shows, no advertising, no freestanding boutique network, very little retail outlets and product that is about its own consistent identity, not the whims of a fashion moment. No wonder Alaia continues to sell out at places like Dover Street Market and designers like Rei Kawabuko and Miuccia Prada seek out a quiet, collaborative relationship with him. In this bracing new post-recession fashion world is the Azzedine Alia business model the future? TI wouldn't be mad if it were.

Women loves Alex Beck

Alex Beck is an amazing photographer and my neighbor. He entered the business on the other side of the camera, working with the best (Steven Meisel for Prada). Reaching the highest heights of fashion industry gave Alex a unique perspective on creating his own photographs, and working with models. His charm and soft spoke ways make a photo shoot more than just a sitting - it becomes an connection.

Alex's work can be seen on his website: Alex Beck.

Alex took this Polaroid of Yulia Kharlapanova and Toma Barkova at a casting last summer (June 13, 2008).

Alex is having a show of his work this Friday, January 30th, from 8 to 10 pm :
