BLACK...DON'T SAY IT BUT IT'S COMING BACK-NICK KNIGHT'S "BLACK and WHITE"

Yes, we've all heard someone say Black is the new Black or Black is back or Black is making a comeback. Truly, though Black is marching back with a full on attack at fashion. Call it the times or call it who wants to see all those bright colors and '80's redux of pumped up colors again and again. Chanel and YSL laid it down for A/W '09 with monochromatic looks of black and white. Other designers hinted at it like Louis Vuitton and Azzedine Alaia. We're telling you it's coming back with a vengeance. So, those of you who want to wear all your colors and prints...ugh...go ahead, eventually, you'll see the light.
In the meantime, here's a great film shot by Nick Knight and Ruth Hogben entitled, "Black and White," which features some of the great monochromatic looks from A/W '09 for British Vogue. It features model Anja Rubik and it's quite a smashing visual. Thanks to SHOWstudio.
