A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Nomen omen is a Latin phrase that literally means the name is an omen. This is perhaps the best starting point to describe this book, devoted entirely to the life, achievements, hobbies, passions and dreams of one of fashion s leading male models,David Gandy, who is also Dolce + Gabbana s ideal, icon and muse. The book traces the milestones in the career of David Gandy, originally from Essex. Although he entered the world of fashion by chance (a girl with whom he shared the apartment sent his photo to a modeling agency without his knowledge), he has quickly risen to the height of modeling fame, along the way becoming Dolce + Gabbana s symbolic image of male beauty. The book traces his path from the early photo shoots to the much acclaimed advertising campaign for the fragrance Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana, which captured people s imagination and turned David Gandy into an icon of virility, sex appeal and charm. The Light Blue campaign garnered over 11million online hits and saw a 50 foot poster of him grace Times Square. The book is enriched by many new photos taken especially for this project by Mariano Vivanco, one of the top fashion photographers at work today who also captured the sensuality and highly erotic charge that emanate from David s perfectly statuesque body for Dolce + Gabbana s 2008 calendar. The book also features photographs by Mario Testino, Steven Klein, Luca Cannonieri Monica Feudi and others

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Diesel’s Be Stupid advertising campaign created a stir worldwide. Now the philosophy behind the campaign is presented in full in Renzo Rosso’s manual of practical advice and business-tested wisdom for achieving success. Drawing on his experience as a creative entrepreneur, Rosso explains how the braveness to make stupid decisions and the ability to see things for how they could be helped him build a successful company. Be Stupid is a method for learning: a guide for how to listen to your heart and not your head, to be creative instead of critical, and to get back on your feet after a downfall. The book reflects the inspiring story and personality of the author: methodical but fun, creative but rational, passionate and pragmatic.
