* List to be updated

Highlights:

  • It will be the first time that Alexander McQueen is going to have an ad campaign and he has chosen fellow brit Alice Gibb, who opened his Spring 08′ show, as the model. 
  • After losing Chloe S/S 08′ to Craig McDean, Inez & Vinoodh has lost another— Valentino, the job goes to Peter Lindberg. (Check out ’seeing double’)
  • Both Isabeli Fontana and Natasha Poly have landed 5 major campaigns with all five different photographers, the most out of all other models.
  • Balenciaga’s campaign would be fronted by a celebrity (Charlotte Gainsbourg), for the second time running.
  • Bulgari has dropped Stam, fellow canadian Julia Dunstall replaces her. Karlie Kloss is up for Bulgari fragrance.
  • While Nicole Kidman is going to be a mum, Audrey Tautou will be the new face of the iconic Chanel No.5 fragrance.
  • Best newcomer: Aline Weber— Benetton, D&G, M Missoni, Moschino
  • Toni Garrn, the German stunner who has been Calvin Klein’s world exclusive for two straight seasons, is apparently not doing well in the editorial market. Besides not getting enough print work/covers, she was dropped from being the face of Calvin Klein’s main line to cK jeans and also fronting Jill Stuart, who counts Lindsay Lohan as its past campaign stars.

The rat coat strikes again

May 14, 2008 · 4 Comments

Photobucket

First it was Raquel Zimmermann photographed by Mert & Marcus for W and now:

Claudia Schiffer posing as a glamourous siren, in the same rat coat from Gareth Pugh’s Spring/summer 08′ collection, shot by Mario Testino for Vogue Germany.

The furry rats aside, what disturbed me is that this piece feels really last season right now (Raquel’s editorial appeared in W’s December 07′ issue). Even the cat is bored.

What do you think?

After browsing through the images, I can’t really tell his inspiration (60s’ again?). It is a little messy— the styling is Fall 07′, the setting is ocean/underwater and the hats are…?

John is good at rock & roll (think Fall 05′, 06′), then why hasn’t he churn out a collection that has a darker tone? I would like to see him doing something fierce and edgy again.

Casting wise, I am so glad to see Sasha back on the runway after doing only two shows during the Fall 08′ season. How I miss that killer glare…

Who dares to rock Miu Miu Fall 08′

Camilla Belle in Miu Miu Fall 08′

You might think that the Miu Miu pieces are hideous or simply unwearable, but somehow, it found its way to the red carpet. Camilla looks alright, in fact, so fine that I can totally imagine her posing for the label’s fall 08′ campaign. But apparently, it will be French actress/singer Vanessa Paradis who is fronting it.

Photobucket

Weird combination? I have always think of her as someone who wears Chanel or anyting that is not too dramatic because she has a really classy, sophisticated dress sense (as seen from the Oscars). So now, I am very curious at how will she rock those scuba-diving inspired pieces…

To compliment the dark tones and sharp silhouettes of fall’s coats, a loose messy bun is what you need to get the whole look in balance. Futher more, all you need is just a pin.
