BlackBook April 2009 : Nicole Richie

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

i like the cover
hate the lagy gaga
styling

[icelynn]

Um why the hell didn't they just get Lady Gaga to do the cover? No offense to fans but she's not some icon from a past generation to where she's important enough to be portrayed by someone else, they act like she's Marilyn Monroe or something.

[Mahalofashion]

i think it's fierce.

[ballerinagirl]

I know alot of people are saying lady gaga because its the most recent memory, (i like gaga but her look/style is not original) according to the interview, the shoot is based on Teri Toye

Wearing fluorescent candy colors and a long wig, evoking the look of ’80s transgender model and Stephen Sprouse muse Teri Toye

The interview is now on blackbook's website: here

^ Thanks for the review, user.n. I was wondering what subject Karen was featured about.

[rh85]

wow, the 80's are back I love the pictures!

I cant believe how much Nicole has changed for good.

[BerlinRocks]

wow, the 80's are back

yes since the late 90s-early 00s ...
nobody remember Miss Kittin 1982 ? Or all the Euro-trash-disco etc ?

yep, but there were many trends in the 80's, some ones are more obvious than others, those pictures are pure 80's, like 1984.

1982

and ... Rythmes Digitales, Zoot Woman, COS etc.
not Kitty .....


I've just noticed you were from USA ...
I'm wondering if the 80s revival you're living overthere is not plenty different from the one we had in Europe in the early 00s ...
We were a lot about ItaloDisco or German80sElectronicMusic ....
it's different from Stephen Sprouse and Keith Harring imo ....

[BerlinRocks]

and this review is non-sense regarding the cover ....
