On Saturday morning I read that Georgia Jagger was the new face of Versace.
Then I dressed up as a nevernude and drank too much tequila so I’m just remembering now what I meant to report Monday morning.
The Imaginary Socialite tucked the tidbit into the bottom of a roundup:
“Georgia Jagger for Versace?! Bestill our fashion hearts; this is amazing.”
We’re not sure there’s a right way and a wrong way to become a super famous awesome model, but landing a solid denim campaign (Hudson), followed by a Vogue cover (UK), a cosmetic contract (Rimmel) and then graduating to a major house (Versace), seems damn perfect.
Model Shop: Lara Stone’ll curate the next phase of Not Just A Label, the online shop dedicated to one-off designer pieces and special limited edition products. We see leather, cigarettes and Eres in the future. {NotJustALabel}
One Track Mind: Just how many models does it take to make one night of Fashion run smoothly? About 250 apparently. Coco, Lily, Chanel & two hundred and fifty others will be stationed around the city to make your night a little bit prettier. {ImaginarySocialite}
So Un-Vogue: There’s a scene in The September Issue in which Anna takes issue with the size of the cover font, hate to see what she’d do to the staff of Vogue Brazil for misspelling Guy Bourdin’s name on their September cover. {MadeInBrazil}

The Boyfriend’s Back: Suzy Menkes says the 80’s are back in the shape of boyfriend suits. Does your boyfriend dress like this? {The New York Times}
Boys for Boys: Henry Holland, Philip Lim & Richard Chai make the perfect white tees for Topshop. We pout because they are for boys but realize we’ll probably buy them anyway {Refinery29}
Pretty Hair: If this is the season we finally relent and embrace pretty hair accessories, we will choose these, please. {Starworks}
The City Breaks: Whitney left DVF to go back to work for Kelly because Olivia got promoted/sent to London and she didn’t so now Joe Zee gets a bigger role on The City? Is it too much to hope it just ends? {New York Post}
Topless in Topshop: Someone got so excited to get to Topshop she forgot to put on her shirt! {Imaginary Socialite}
Hypothesis: Fall 09 is mostly a season of repeats.
Proof:
1. Balmainia.
2. The entire decade of the 80’s turning up… everywhere.
3. Marni loving Prada perhaps a bit too much.
4. Jean-Charles Castelbajac sending his models onto the runway from a giant mouth a la Viktor & Rolf Spring 08.
5. Jeremy Scott giving out his Longchamp bag to Beth Ditto and Kanye West to tote around at the Fall 09 shows like it’s really Spring 06.
And so on.
Conclusion: Discuss!
