Every time I think about underwear models, I can’t take the Victoria’s Secret angels cliché off my mind. I wish I didn’t have that stuck in my head, but I can’t help it! In order to sell lingerie to (let’s say) the average customer, you have to somewhat detach the intimacy idea from the underwear you’re trying to sell and wrap it into something else. VS did that wonderfully with their Angels.

Now getting back to Peaches Geldof and the lingerie matter. And it’s a delicate approach. Peaches is Miss Ultimo. Or at least that’s what she’s trying to embody, again, this time for the Spring Summer 2010 campaign! (the story continues right after the jump, click here for the gallery!)

With every passing season, Chloë Sevigny’s Opening Ceremony design doings only succeeded in giving me chills down my spine but this time it’s pretty different. Pretty.

Maybe it’s also because I love Unisex fashion. Maybe because I was a “90s child” and fashion was all so unisex back then. Can’t really put my finger on it, but I can put my finger on Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony Fall Winter 2009 2010 Unisex Collection! (the story continues with more images right after the jump!)

I was always surprised by a fashion photo shooting and how much it changes a face. A while back I posted a series of articles with before/after pictures of known models before make up vs photo shooting picture. The difference wasn’t all that notable. But that won’t make me rest my case: fashion photos change people.

For the good or the bad, you’ll be the judge! I’ll just gather some fresh faces from here and there and we’ll have our say if the girl is headed for a golden future in fashion or not. Today’s freshface is Alena Enikeeva. She’s an 1988 born young Russian 175cm/5’9” 79/63/91 // 30”/25”/36” with Brown hair and Green eyes. What’s your first impression? (via)

While last year she was rolling at the Kaiser’s command for Chanel, Claudia has moved on and received yet another glorious ad campaign.

Last for Yves Saint Laurent was Naomi Campbell, before that, Kate Moss. With two supers consequently in a year of ad campaigns, Yves Saint Laurent is clearly promoting the Supermodels Reign over fashion and all things connected. Claudia Schiffer is the Spring face for YSL legendary Manifesto. While Kate Moss did a hallucinating (literally) video last year, I hope for better this Valentine’s, when Claudia’s YSL Manifesto will be released. I was getting used to Naomi YSL campaign. She looked far better (to me) than Claudia Schiffer for YSL. Which do you prefer? (via wwd)

UPDATE: More pictures from the YSL Spring Summer 2009 ad campaign added right after the jump!

It won’t be long before fashion shows will exhibit intimate parts and call it art. Those were the words of my dearest husband no more than two weeks ago when he read one of my postings about a fashion show.

I looked at him and raised my eyebrows “You really think so?”. At the time I wasn’t expecting something like this V cover. Now I’m facing a playboy-like Gisele on V 54 (by Mario Testino) and ask myself if my husband qualifies for fashion guru. Oh well, I guess I’m the lucky one! Now back to Gisele – if she’s posing like that for a fashion magazine, it doesn’t surprise me she tops the best paid models of the world. I just wonder what’s in it for a woman. Speaking for myself – I don’t really see the fashion in those poses. I see the body. I see the skin, of course (who doesn’t? you don’t have to be a fashion guru to accomplish that vision) I even see the pink nails (toe nails matching). Now where’s the style? Where’s la moda?(the pictorial follows right after the jump)

She’s clearly not the most beautiful model around but Coco has something…

Something more than a scared kid air. That supposed innocence playing in her eyes gives her a special look, some unforgettable image stubbornly occupying your mind even when she’s out of sight (there’s another picture after the jump).
