Magazine Madness: 2015 Interview Kristen Stewart by Patti Smith

Interview March 2015

Though many commentators criticize Kristen Stewart’s performance at Twilight Saga, and still a quite amount of haters spit words on her fashion campaign pages, I find Kristen Stewart a beautiful and potential actress, from Panic Room to Still Alice. Interview special spring issue is usually a great platform for the collaboration between photographers and femme. Before the physical copy displaying on the rack, from Interview Facebook page has been posted double covers of Kristen photographed under Steven Klein’s lens: both are neon layering hues, late night streets, leopard wild fur, silky pink lingerie, a touch of Sin City, and highly Las Vegas.


As Editorial Director Fabien Baron quoted photographer Peter Lindbergh’s quote, that “Photographers are responsible for creating or reflecting an image of women in society” (90). In Interview Fashion Issue 2015, styled by Karl Templer, interviewed with National Book Award Winner/punk-rock matriarch Patti Smith, Kristen Stewart speaks her self-awareness and self-expectation. Stewart realizes that “it’s counterintuitive to boil down something so personal. You open your work up to the world and put it in a context where you could easily trivialize what you’ve done. If people sense that discomfort, they’re not wrong” (183).
What makes Interview magazine highly collectable is that the Q&A mode between unimaginable interviewer and interviewee an original word record. Readers can view the glimpse of the ways of thinking of these talents, perhaps the sentence construction is simple but the mindset is deeply downward. Besides Kristen Stewart with Patti Smith, there are Riley Keough by Steven Soderbergh, Sigourney Weaver v.s Jamie Lee Curtis and Artistic Director of Louis Vuitton, Nicolas Ghesquière by LV spokeswoman Michelle Williams. At age 44, Ghesquière’s futuristic ideas lead the House of Travel into a new dawn. His inspiration of new colours of the Louis Vuitton bag, dune, is reveled that from David Lynch’s 1984 adaptation of Frank Herbert’s space odyssey, Dune. The secret of his never tiring inspiration is viewing himself as “a vortex, absorbing information and emotions and sensibilities. Then [I will] express it later in the attitude and the description of the woman I want to express with fashion” (233).   
The Louis Vuitton Spring 2015 fashion campaign are graced by Russian supermodel Natalia Vodianova, geometric, elegant but a touch of Science fiction, showing that women in the future the image of strong and independence. How I wish that LV Spring 2015 campaign by Vodianova are full pages rather merely some column-size fragmentations. The magazine’s unique voice toward designer’s garments and the arrangement of fashion atmosphere shall be much louder than those commercial papers at front of. Comparing summoning  famous sponsors, the fashion campaign of a ‘fashion magazine’ reflecting both the editorial and artistic abilities of the team, from that, is the true test of  longevity of a fashion publication.

The next cover star who will wow Interview April 2015 issue is an avant garde yet mystic 
femme. No doubt I am very ready.
