HER STYLE Can Joaquin Phoenix bring back high-waisted pants for men? He gives it a good go in Her, Spike Jonze’s latest film in cinemas from tomorrow. Set in Los Angeles, it follows Phoenix as a lonely writer who falls in love with an operating system (voiced by Scarlett Johansson) — a concept that doesn’t seem so ridiculous given the popularity of iPhones and apps like Siri. New York store Opening Ceremony has released a capsule collection inspired by the film’s costumes, with button-up shirts with smaller collars, T-shirts printed with a city skyline and sweatshirts with iPhone-sized chest pockets and removable safety pins. And yes, those high-waisted pants. For those who can’t make it to their Howard St boutique in NYC, the range is available online at openingceremony.us.
TWO FRIENDS IN NYC We love how Kate Sylvester creates a story behind every collection — this season she is all about two characters living in New York who “have love birds on their fire escape and bugs in the kitchen”. Inspired by an iconic 1950s Irving Penn photograph of models hanging out looking expensively bored, the range features 1950s-inspired party dresses, cocoon-shaped capes — a reference to the blankets Sylvester’s characters have to wrap up in when they can’t afford to pay the heating bill — and a print inspired by the big city lights. New Zealand models, and real life friends based in New York, Ashleigh Good and Anmari Botha feature in the campaign, a recreation of that Irving Penn image. Ashleigh wears blazer, $645, and trousers, $385, and Anmari wears top, $295, and skirt $285. Ph (09) 307 3282. • Read more about Anmari and Ashleigh on page 8.
