Agent Provocateur – Le Fleurs du Mal

Lawrence Garwood — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 08:46:31 +0000

Sexy lingerie brand Agent Provocateur has just released a sexy, erotic, S&M/horror B movie.
Beautifully styled, filmed and ‘provocative’ as you might imagine.

Titled ‘Fleurs du Mal’ (Flowers of Evil).

This sexy erotic film has a shock aspect and is full of contradictions, making it work so well.

‘Fleurs du Mal‘ is originally the title of a series of poems by French 19th century poet and literature heavyweight Charles Baudelaire.
Wikipedia describes his work as ‘a new urban sensibility, an awareness of individual moral complexity, an interest in vice and refined sensual and aesthetical pleasures’.

Voila

Guy & Max

Nice bit of branding by Proud Creative.

Guy & Max is the product of two brothers’ quest to create a collection of faultless precious metal and diamond jewellery. The brothers have very different yet complimentary skill sets: Max trained as a contemporary furniture designer and uses that knowledge to create unique, creative, yet timeless jewellery; whilst Guy is steeped in the family’s rich heritage in the diamond trade.

A new green file format: WWF
The WWF format is a PDF that cannot be printed out. It’s a simple way to avoid unnecessary printing. So here’s your chance to save trees and help the environment. Decide for yourself which documents don’t need printing out – then simply save them as WWF.

A great short documentary that explores people who are influencers.
Agents of change are far and few, it looks at who, how and how brands can embrace change.
Nicely put together..
