Guess? Who

guess-claudia-schiffer.jpgAs you well know, most fashion and beauty internships don’t pay a salary.

But finally, we’ve got one that does! Guess is looking for someone to work in their public relations department for…$10/hour.

You’ll be trafficking samples, keep the showroom all nice and presentable, maintaining the databases, and helping out with press previews and market appointments for Guess, Guess by Marciano, and G by Guess.

They’re looking for candidates that are at least sophomores in college, but recent grads can feel free to apply too.

And you get paid. Hooray!! If you’re interested, click here to apply.

United Colors of Vintage

vintagebenetton1.jpgWhile attending Westlane Middle School back in the mid-late 80s, Benetton was everything. Well, that and Guess zipper leg jeans, tri-color Polo sweaters, rugby shirts, and Multiples and/or Units.

Now I realize, I regularly tend toward the nostalgic (even more lately which may have something to do with my looming 34th birthday at the end of the month), but the release I just got about Benetton opening up their archives in November made me absolutely giddy. Seriously the cardigan sets, the short-sleeve turtleneck knits, the boat necks. I’m having major flashbacks.

This fall I will totally be bringing these back into my wardrobe, with a slight twist on the styling of course, and minus the braces and bad bangs. Are the rest of you teens of the 80s with me?

Irina Shayk: Superstar

Irina Shayk’s already landed the cover of Jalouse and a career-making spot in Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue from 2007-09.

She’s also the face of Intimissimi and Guess, but she just now signed to IMG and they’re celebrating their new girl with much more than your basic measurement holding model card.

The video above is the most fun way we’ve ever learned of an agency’s new hire and we think it should be the only way from now on. IMG even wrangled (we’re sure it was difficult) their very own elevator operator to star alongside the Russian babe.

Major Luxury at JPG

JPGcrocoverallsandfurcoat.jpgWe started hearing word from the Jean Paul Gaultier show earlier today via Tweets from lucky attendees. Old Hollywood was the theme and seating was even named after the major studios.

And may we add a quick thank you to the newest editor addition to Twitterverse, Joe Zee. The man is on it with the rapid details and pictures.

(He’s tweeting from Valentino as we write.)

When he wrote about crocodile overalls paired with a sable coat, we knew this was the look we had to see stat.

Georgina’s Party

michelle for guess for marie claire.jpgMichelle Trachtenberg’s danced around the fashion crowd for a bit now without actually attaching her name to anything (except for her stint as one of the faces for Candie’s at Kohl’s which she’d probably like us to forget.)

But now she’s throwing a party for Guess.

They’re re-opening their Soho flagship store at the end of July and Georgina Sparks, along with Marie Claire, will host the bash.

Which of course makes us wonder, will Michelle grace an upcoming cover of Marie Claire or join forces with Guess’ sultry models?

It also makes us wonder what went wrong in the world of Gossip Girls-turned-campaign faces. We’re still not over Leighton for Reebok or Ed for K Swiss, and Michelle for Guess is just as disturbing. They all have faces worthy of high fashion campaigns and Michelle and Leighton both have curves we’d love to see in runway clothes.

Make us proud Blake.

That’s What He Said: Olivier Theyskens likes fashion parties , but he’d rather smoke cheap cigars and pee in the Seine. We’ll see him at the former, thanks. {Hint}

Broken Brants: Stephanie Seymour just filed for divorce from her husband of sixteen years/owner of Interview Peter Brant. Poor thing’s sleeping in the maid’s quarters, probably surrounded by Alaia. {NYMag}

Emily's Just Born With It

emily didonato pull.jpgThis is Emily DiDonato.

You may recognize her from the Spring 09 Guess ads, or maybe from her many editorials. If you’re not familiar with her yet, you will be: As of Friday, she’s the new Maybelline girl.

She’s seventeen, from New York, signed with Request, and we seriously think she has what it takes to compete with the Gisele’s of the world.

Stay tuned on this girl’s career.

Guess? Who’s Going to Rehab

Nicole T_Guess.jpgThe new Guess? ads are out, and they’re great, but a little bit sad.

After all, if Amy Winehouse were healthy, she’d look exactly like this picture of a sultry beehived babe, as embodied by Aussie model Nicole Trufino.

It’s clear Guess? is taking a page from Karl Lagerfeld’s latest Cruise collection, which was based entirely on Ms. Amy and featured Coco Rocha wearing yesterday’s eyeliner and hair more teased than a nerd in eighth grade.

We like the direction where Guess? is going, straddling their pinup girl heritage with something more music-infused and borrowed by high fashion.

Maybe for Fall, they’ll make it look like Duffy?
