Alexander Wang’s First Campaign Video
Alexander Wang assembled a crack team for his first-ever women’s ready-to-wear campaign video for his Wall Street-inspired Fall collection, which premieres on his Web site and ours, among others, today. Craig McDean was behind the camera, Fabien Baron was in the creative director’s seat, and Karl Templer styled. Orlando Pita and Mark Carrasquillo did Abbey Lee Kershaw’s hair and makeup. The setting, too—a now deserted New York City hotel—is compelling. “We’re always striving to communicate the frame of mind behind the collection, whether it’s through our show or imagery, but this season we got to delve much deeper,” Wang told us. “And with the help of an incredibly gifted team—Abbey, Craig, Fabien, and Karl—my inspiration for Fall ’10 unfolds in a raw and visually arresting dreamscape.” It doesn’t look like Wall Street to us, but we’re with him re: “raw and visually arresting.” Enjoy.

Stone Keeps Rolling
The unstoppable Lara Stone has made her latest conquest: Calvin Klein. WWD reports that the gap-toothed Dutch beauty is fronting three of the label’s brands—Collection, cK Calvin Klein, and Calvin Klein Jeans—for Fall 2010. Not only that, Klein properties are the only place you’ll see Lara this Fall; she’s a runway and advertising exclusive for the company. Mert & Marcus shot the Collection (left) and Calvin Klein Jeans (below) campaigns, Fabien Baron the ck Calvin Klein campaign (bottom).


Stella At The Gap, Kanye’s Breakup, And More…
Stella McCartney falls into the Gap, but unless you’re pint-size or learning how to walk, you’ll have to stick to her full-priced line. Lucky brats. [WWD]

The Ellen Show: Ellen Barkin’s new, vaguely familiar HBO show will be less warm-cuddly than a talk show, and more sexy-vindictive, like a telenovela.
Fabien Baron and Karl Templer must have something lined up in This Unstable Economy, otherwise their joint exit from Interview would be highly unadvised. Or just ballsy.
Page Six Magazine will continue to dole out the same trustworthy gossip, just less of it.
The Bank of England’s guidelines for their female employees’ wardrobes specify “no ankle chains,” which is disturbing, because it means someone actually wore one.
The Cut makes a good point: “Who needs the Super Bowl when you have couture?” Specifically, Jean Paul Gaultier doing this.
