Americana's Silent Fall


Long Island’s Americana Manhasset took inspiration from one of my Favourite Movies, 'The Artist', for its Autumn catalogue titled Speechless” — a homage to black-and-white silent movies ...



The catalogue comes out in mid-August, with a short silent film, “Speechless,” and a behind-the scenes, silent look at the making of the book will be posted on Americana’s Web site. The Americana even hired four-legged star Uggie, the scene-stealing Jack Russell terrier who appears in “The Artist.”





And here is the Video:


Americana Manhasset chose the catalogue’s theme based on the fall collections, many of which “harkened to the past in some way, especially the Twenties and Thirties, but with a modern twist,” said Andrea Sanders, senior vice president and creative director. The catalogue was shot at Paramount Studios and several private homes in Los Angeles.

All I can say is that I wouldn't mind seeing more of these Roaring 20s-Inspired Catalogues and Editorials! ... with that said I'm also looking forward to the Great Gatsby Movie!
