CHRYSALIS New Fashion Film Launched!
Our latest SHOWstudio fashion short is something of an in-house production - literally, as Jez Tozer shot his Chrysalis short and the accompanying 'We Came Through' editorial for January's Dazed Japan within the white confines of SHOWstudio itself. Not that this comes across, of course, in the final images of both film and shoot: indeed, the aesthetics of both are characterised by an airy lightness - inspired, Jez explains, by the five stages of a love affair and reflected in stylist Robbie Spencer's choice of the softest and most fragile pieces from the season's collections. The resulting short pans out in slow-motion, the action slowly and delicately unfolding much like a butterfly's wings when first taking flight. A tantalising widwinter's glimpse into the sunny white light of next spring.
Gorgeous. Would be great if Dazed printed QR codes next to the editorial so readers could see the images come to life as movies with a point and shoot of their mobile phones.
