CFDA’s Nominees Photographed Wearing Their Creations

The designer is usually one step behind the model when presenting his/her creations. This time is different. CFDA’s Diane von Furstenberg decided to make things differently this year: instead of having models posing in designer creations, we now have designers showing their own work.

Jason Wu’s blue plated flowy dress worn under a suit vest looks strange. But not impossibly to digest. (the story continues right after the jump with more pictures!)

… and not end up looking like Peaches Geldof? Well, you can start by not mixing different prints and you’ll be all safe!

Peaches Geldof took her not-doing-anything-in-particular (but cashin-in-big-time) self and decided to throw a prints party in her closet. The few prints left standing were the winners of a stroll under heavy paps flashfire. I included this over-spiced outfit in the Fashion Disaster category because not even Peaches can get away with so much without looking like a walking, unassorted thrift store!

What if people get the wrong idea and start following her style footsteps? Would you be a multi-print-girl? Just how many different prints you can combine before looking like a clown? (also – are those the legendary Bebaroque tights?) (photos via)

Johnny Depp on a magazine cover! Doing an interview?! That’s something we have got to see! Since Kate Moss broke the silence Depp allegedly imposed her to keep the mystery up and running around her persona, why not Johnny?

Johnny Depp’s Great Escape for Vanity Fair July 2009 is ready to sweep you off your feet! Just take a look and say it isn’t magical! (the story continues with more images right after the jump!)

Remember how last year Madonna grey-ed up the Green cover of Vanity Fair? Forget Madonna, keep the Photoshop. Remember Gisele Bundchen’s Ipanema Sementes 2009 ads? Keep the theme.

Add the two ingredients, spice it all up with Miranda Kerr and you’ve got the Rolling Stone magazine cover for July 2009. (so photoshopped, you’d say Miranda is a plastic doll) The Green one! Pregnant or not, Gisele’s usual poses are handed over to the next angel in charge: Miranda Kerr. And judging from the cover’s clothes-less styling, plain green issues don’t really sell, do they?

Kate Moss finally understood her fashion power: vintage, baby! Being a vintage girl since forever, leading a second hand life in the backstages of rock’n’roll, Kate put all the pieces together and announced that her next puzzle… ahem perfume will launch this fall and it’s called (drums roll!) Vintage! (hope it doesn’t make you smell like you’ve just popped out of a thrift store!) (WWD)

We’re used to seeing Angelina pregnant every second so why should anyone be any different? It seems that Gisele Bundchen being pregnant is something so gossip-ish and untrue that her husband, Tom Brady, had to come forth and declare: “I have dogs and that’s all I need”.. Well, Tom, since you put it this way… (AP)

All that success is getting to you, Miley! You’ve been in this business for so long you already think you’re having the right age to pull off that dress on the red carpet? (or anywhere else)

The makeup, the Moschino Cheap and Chic nude dress, the nude Louboutins, the accessories, the nail polish, it’s all so wrong! It all screams (just like her), so unfit, so not her age! She just won the MTV Movie Awards 2009 for best song from a movie, she’s still on a wave, she’ll still be making public (red carpet) appearances and she’ll still be wearing outfits like this one! Shouldn’t Daddy hire a stylist for her? (photos via)

Some journeys change mankind forever. That’s how Louis Vuitton’s marketing team based on Annie Leibovitz masterful photography hope to turn the economy crunch in their favor.

The new LV Core Values campaign features Sally Ride (first American woman in space), Buzz Aldrin (Apollo 11, first steps on the Moon, 1969), Jim Lovell (Apollo 13, commander. Thus Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11’s first steps on the Moon, Louis Vuitton’s ad places the legendary astronauts, under the Moon, in a pick up truck (must be at least 40-years old!) looking up in the Californian desert night sky.

Also, on July 2nd, the behind the scenes video of the Leibovitz photo shoot and interviews with the astronauts will be introduced on louisvuittonjourneys.com. I wonder if they phoshopped a LV bag on the Moon, carried by the Apollo 11’s crew 40 years ago.. wouldn’t it have been more effective? (and highly core values) (via)
