The movies this weekend, and I, Mr. Marconi visual verse of images - he seems to all look at the designers and reverence - than I am about Mr. Lagerfeld's fashion social injustice and the straight wondered. (comrades,
London Underground Food grain market,
louis vuitton speedy, so it does not matter ?
Mr. Marconi, in New York, the film opens today at Film Forum, Mr. Lagerfeld said the cost of two years of experience to become something extra person untouchable fashion icon, and his designer's view. It was a revelation, in the film opposite.
Q: Do you find that he first intimidated
?
A: If you've looked the movie, the first scene, while I entered his bedroom. I have been waiting as two or 3 months ago,
Corneliani we absence above the road , AC Milan hi, beating ashore his bedroom gate. I do no absence him out. I am waiting because a good time. This is quite strange. He namely a menace, but the first day, when he gave me his hand and say hello, it's wild matter, like I have not seen him. He namely quite simple, actually. We sat by the chart, and luncheon. We began to speak almost vogue. We interviewed and a expression, favor 6 hours. He gave me entire the time. When he likes you, he has for your time. When he did not, or you are bored, he left.
Q: How did you reach the film captures the process of Carl
A: I do not like documentaries in general. The documentary is all the same. It's all the same rules. If you want to make a good documentary, you absence to politics, controversy. I do not concern. I do not have time to cost three years, production a membrane, if I do not like my subject is half of my life. I love Carl. When I first met Carl, he said, what kind of movie you want to do? maximum people make documentaries also wish that other people who know Karl said, I just want to exhibit. This is my vision, my eye sight. I think a movie, music and pictures. When I was a child on the beach Super - 8 of the image,
Etro Fall 2010 fall touch of the exotic, perhaps two minutes, Karl, for me, it is momentous to have a moment to exhale. It's like he saw his childhood.
Q: at all times the scene, when you looked at him his bathroom window (in Biarritz) outside
?
A: I have the roof on. This is a big house. Every morning,
louis vuitton ebene, he was in the same lavatory and this morn, he did not. I woke up very earlier in the day, I wander nigh the house. I heard some water, I know him in the bath, so I had the camera on the roof. When I gave him the amended film,
louis vuitton veins, I thought he was going to tear this part, because he did not make-up, not sunglasses. I am very surprised that he did not want to mow things. This is his very chic.
Q: Do you think that for a fashion designer Karl? You have a collection of work that he does not show very much.
A: I love fashion. I like raiment. But for me, I was not fascinated at him because of fashion, but because of individuality guy. He can always say something comic and beautiful, always explicit. You can inquire him 100 answers. He was always one for all the responses.
Q: From the fashion point of view, may be nearby the point. In the fashion and personality prefer than the clothes there are so many priorities. You have a personality methodology, Carl, has become so important?
A: He did anything convert. There is an in France, which is to be cautious what you want, for you will get a good proverb. Carl Today, he wants what from the outset. He is not been calculated. In France, everybody likes Carl, when they are 12, when they are 70 annuals antique, when they 40. This is very strange. I do not know in the end why. Perhaps because he was not the bourgeoisie, he is not politically correct. People like this. His imagine of helping people, you know. He assisted folk to become their own.
Q: So is not he in a large part one deed not
it?
A: I have never been so impressed. This is a mistake, that behavior is symbol Carl. He is like that. In a Sunday afternoon in his house, in the final weekbring an end to ... Biarritz, with us, only in his family garden, he would be jogging suit or a sweater, but never. Always a tie, shirt. Even if he is solo,
louis vuitton rolling, he is like this. He always, when he talk to you, when 100 people, or he was fair alone, he is the same. Camera is cornered on or off, this is the same.
Q: Why do you converge so much on Carl Brad Kroenig pictures, models? How do you meditation his relationship with Brad?
a: Brad like photo prototype. And Carl like to do pictures. I think Brad and Carl,
louis vuitton broze, it was like a inhalation. His breathing. A moment without the same fashion amusement. And I think he tin be found in Brad, maybe, he lost face,
louis vuitton bum, you know? Brad is because the juvenile, Brad is beauteous, and their relationship is very strange. Sometimes, Karl Brad nude photos, but he always retained a distance with Brad.
is self-contradictory.
