Lindsay Lohan’s “First Point” short film

Lindsay Lohan and Richard Phillips have again collaborated on a short film entitled First Point which premiered in Switzerland this week.  In the five-minute flick, Lohan takes on the role of a sexy surfer girl who surfs and sunbathes her days away while the paparazzi lens hovers.

Co-directed by legendary surf filmmaker Taylor Steele, the film is shot on both public and private beaches in Malibu, with music score by Thomas Bangalter — one half of French electro duo Daft Punk.

“This tackles a different part of who she is and how she projects herself. It’s not fashion photography, it’s not mainstream film.” Phillips told ABC News.

First Point premiered on June 11 as part Art Unlimited VIP Opening at Art Basel 2012 and will air to the public over the coming days.

Shawn Stussy’s S/Double studio

The Stussy name is synonymous with trendy ‘urban’ fashion, but its humble beginnings didn’t originate in apparel design. Creator, Shawn Stussy, admits the clothing brand was just a side project to his day job until it eventually got in the way!

Shawn Stussy started shaping surfboards to pay the bills and, in his own words, get by. He scrawled his name on his products till the 80s when the clothing corner of his company began to boom. Almost two decades later, Shawn retired from running his empire and returned to his roots – shaping surfboards. He’s currently preparing for the opening of his new ‘S/Double’ branded surf shop in Tokyo, Japan.

With the help of Seth Epstein in this short video, we take a sneak peek at Shawn’s recent hard work.

S/Double will have its pre-opening party on April 20
