Jesus is my Homeboy

My all-time favorite photographer, David LaChapelle, did a thought provoking spread for I-D magazine. I think this is one of LaChapelle’s more profound collection of works. Those of you not familiar with LaChapelle’s work,  his distinct photos paint a vivid picture worth looking at for hours since each photo’s story unfolds before your eyes. He also is known for his fashion influenced and celebrity models in his photos. Add a splash of color and humor and you’ve got a distinguishable David LaChapelle photo. So , is Jesus your homeboy? Makes you wonder if he really sees us like this… 

PS- check out my interview with David LaChapelle for his feature movie, ‘Rize’ .

Nun-chic at Rick Owens

Nuns can be chic , too! Although the industrial booties remind me of when you go into a sterile lab you have to wear booties to keep from tracking  crap into the environment. Rick Owens obviously was watching ‘Agnes of God’ or ‘Sister Act’ when he dreamed up this collection. Maybe heaven is like a sterile lab and God makes you wear booties before you enter… My take on this collection is ‘WTF’?
