The Hong Kong movie, In the Mood for Love has inspired hundreds of fashion shoots. I believe there are at least four other fashion editorials on this theme in this blog alone.
Here is another editorial inspired by In the Mood for Love from a new online fashion/design/culture magazine called UCE Magazine. I have to admit, the quality of the content and photogprahy are quite exceptional for an online magazine. It reads like a real paper magazine without resorting to those childish, splashy, ADD-addled contents/typography that are so prevalent in ditigal media publications today.

Yikes the girl has some ugly expression in the fourth pic.
ReplyDeleteNo chemistry between the models, and the clothes. Pass!
God!, i know that she is not maggie cheung but please where is the elegance and charm?
ReplyDeleteI loved that movie but I don't think these pics quite capture the romance of it.
ReplyDeletei agree... the models have no chemistry and the female model looks more disgusted than anything else.
ReplyDeletebut i think the idea is magnificent!
This is a very good shooting, i am sure the photographer did not want to copy the movie but just to be inspired from it...so we do not need to complain about the romance,elegance and charm.
ReplyDeleteThe female model anyways is not a good one and the clothes are not exceptional, or may be they wanted to keep it easy. The quality of the photography is very high...unfortunately i do not find this photographer on google...i have to check on the magazine if there is any site link.
