Swinton wins Best Supporting Actress at the 80th Academy Awards for portraying Karen Crowder in Michael Clayton.

I just had a reverse Zoolander moment, where I think I heard someone else’s name and suddenly, slooooooooowly heard my own. I’m still recovering from that moment. You could tell me my dress fell off and I’d believe you.

Prefers Tilda Swinton

0 Comments

FrancoiTilda_NARSs Nars prefers women such as Swinton, over models. Nars shot Swinton himself for the latest campaign.

I like edgy fashion and strong features. I cannot photograph models that are very weak or too pretty; there always needs to be some strength, so the choice of the model is very important to me. If I don’t like the model I cannot take the picture, and I do not choose “boring” beauty models — I prefer beauty with character.
