#RIP Stella Tennant
For me she'll always be just about to dive into a pool in a wool suit, in a great fashion photo by Arthur Elgort, for Vogue, 1995
Another shot of Stella Tennant by Arthur Elgort from 1995. She's wearing Helmut Lang & Gucci. What an amazing look!
Arthur Elgort really captured one side of Stella Tennant in this 1995 Vogue photoshoot. Gucci once again. #RIP
Stella Tennant had so many looks over the years. This is from Chanel's Spring 1994 RTW collection, designed by Karl Lagerfeld

"She is very much a British Vogue icon – the definition of British style, with a tomboyish look, eclectic taste & an incredible ability to inject cool into everything she wore."
- Edward Enninful
Stella Tennant's modelling career began with Steven Meisel's December 1993 "London Girls" shoot for British Vogue
This is really extraordinary: Craig McDean's shot of Stella Tennant for the January 1997 issue of Vogue #RIP

A wonderful portrait of Stella Tennant by Martin Parr, 2018 #RIP
Tim Walker shot Stella Tennant among the rhododendrons at Eglingham Hall, Northumberland, for the December 2009 issue of Vogue. I'll think of her when I walk through the fabulous blossoms of Finnerty Gardens at @UVic this spring.
This is one of the most extraordinary of all fashion photographs: Stella Tennant by Tim Walker, for the centenary issue of British Vogue, June 2016
Walker talks about the unique challenge in photographing Tennant, "to capture that crossover of person and model."

#RIP Claude Brasseur
From very early in his career, his 1957 Studio Harcourt portrait. A necessity for a young actor.

Jean-Luc Godard on the set of his 1964 film Bande à Part, with his stars Sami Frey & Claude Brasseur (#RIP), masked, but not socially distancing.
The still photographer on the set was Marilou Parolini.
Stay well Jean-Luc & Sami!
Watched Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love for the first time @criterionchannl. What a masterpiece!
Blu-ray cover by Lucien S. Y. Yang
Watching Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love, we thought of Kubrick (2001, Eyes Wide Shut), Neil Jordan's The End of the Affair, Scorsese's The Age of Innocence, David Lean's Brief Encounter, Godard, Truffaut, Antonioni. I felt like I was in the middle of a Henry James novel.
The French poster for the 20th anniversary restoration of Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love by @studiotstella is perfection.
