Ellen Von Unwerth's Fabulous Fashion Video, Starring Kirsten Dunst
I really don't claim to know much about photography, but I know what I
like. The same goes for video. And when big-name photographers become
video auteurs, what I like is seeing how their photographic vision
extends to another medium. The video here is a case study in how that
is done right. The director is the fashion photographer Ellen Von
Unwerth, and the star is actress Kirsten Dunst. The video was made to
showcase designer Erin Fetherston's fall/winter 2006 collection, but I
only recently saw it. I loved it. It has the true character of Von
Unwerth's best fashion work--charming, girlish fun, with just enough
naughtiness to keep it interesting. Had to pass this one along.

Dave,
after reading the credits, my suspicions were correct. This looks like a video spread from Lula Magazine (who are either obsessed with, or partly financed by Dunst). It's a GREAT photo mag and way under the radar.
thanks for posting this.
