More proof that blondes will rule the Spring '08 campaigns, despite the hype of industry diversity:

Tanya D. will join Anja Rubik in the DSquared campaigns. When we try to imagine Helen of Troy, we usually picture Tanya, though presumably she'll be styled less classic for the antics of Dan and Dean Caten in their latest ads. The Siberian model is now seventeen.

Meanwhile, WWD reports that blonde and banged Kate Moss was snagged by Donna Karan for her new Spring '08 spreads, a job that belonged to brunette Catherine McNeil last season.

We're thrilled to hear about Tanya's first booking for Spring (she's so pretty! she's so magical!) and we're always down for another few pages of Kate. But it's interesting to note that yet again, a very vocal piece of the industry has done nothing to sway the actual practices of it... at least not yet.

Also: When we go to Bumble + Bumble next week for our semi-annual color fest, we're actually thinking of going dark brown... is this so totally wrong?

I don't think Kate is the right fit DKNY. I'm kind of disappointed with that choice. Not that this seasons were anything to write home about. There's always Fall 08 to make up for 2 seasons of crap.

I'm so excited for the dsquared ads and that photo of Tanya is stunning. Do you have the large one floating around any where?

Faran, who do you go to at Bumble? I go to Larry at Bumble and Bumble every 3 weeks, (the grey thing)and he is AMAZING! If you want to go brown, which I am, you will not be disappointed. He takes your eyes and skin color into account and does a fantastic job. He is really gifted. I cannot recommend him enough! He makes my hair look like it did when I was 20!

That picture of Tanya is absolutely beautiful. She is really growing on me, I didn't like her in the Michael Kors campaign but I think she might become one of my favorites. She has a great walk too!
