B for Beauty

The Beautiful People

giselebeautybrazilianstudy.jpgRaise your hand if you think Gisele is gorgeous. How about Adriana Lima, the Fernandas and Madonna’s Jesus? Yeah, we pretty much agree that Brazil has bestowed upon us some of the world’s most beautiful people.

So when a friend emailed us this link this morning, we found the recent study cited rather curious. According to this, Brazilians and Americans view physical beauty differently. Researchers pointed to feature position and culture as the culprit in this varying POV. Interesting, as of course cultural differences have always played a part in views on beauty.

But how does that explain the global unanimity on the aforementioned beautiful ones? Our guess: Fashion and all its trappings is its own very stand-alone culture. Just refer back to that quote of the day from this morning.

Nightcap: London Style

david gandy model turned writer.jpgAt least New York was kind enough to place a couple of days between the CFDAs and the Whitney Art Party - London decided to cram it all into one very fashionable evening.

First up, the Hoping Foundations charity event to raise money for Palestinian refugee camps. Sienna Miller and Kate Moss held court on the dance floor, the former laughing loudly above the crowd and the latter admiring Sienna’s shoes.

We ran into Sienna again at Quintessentially’s summer party, but she, as well as we, left when we realized the bar was dry.

So it’s a good thing Grey Goose sponsored Ralph Lauren’s Summer BBQ at the Kensington Roof Gardens. Tennis stars mingled with princesses though we had our eye on Dolce & Gabanna model David Gandy. He’s unphased by Jesus’ turn in the Dolce spotlight, in part because he’s busy penning a column for the new magazine Fash-ism, launching next month.

A Day on the Pitch

chloesevignyatpolomatch.jpgAfter the lovely afternoon we spent on Governors Island on Saturday, we’ve officially become polo fans. And also please sign us up for the Nacho Figueras fan club. We knew his face was dreamy from all those Ralph Lauren fragrance ads. Let us just say the real thing is unbelievably better.

You know how excited we were to don our hats and watch Prince Harry play.

And by the way, thanks to all of you who recommended The Hat Shop on Thompson. How I’ve missed popping in there over the years is beyond me but I found the perfect Chapeau Chateau fedora that worked for the match and will now become one of my summer staples.

The people watching at the Veuve Clicquot Manhattan Classic was a dream. The best dressed of the afternoon was certainly Chloe Sevigny in Chloe. And the cutest couple: Marc and Lorenzo, who was wearing checked shorts. (Madonna, Jesus Luz, and little David Banda joined them in the VIP tent later on. Oh, to have been at that table!)

Fashion Is Fun

A Night With Jeffrey

jeffrey cares 8.jpgWhat we learned at Jeffrey’s Fashion Cares benefit last night:

— Male models are much shorter than girl models. We’re not sure if it’s due to the lack of 5” heels on the runway or what, but they look tiny out there.

— Jesus Luz looks like a super hot, super sultry, (this is super inappropriate) high school student.

— Brad Koenig’s obviously made to wear suits. He looked the same as he did the last time we saw him, which was on Chanel’s Paris runway in March, only a bit better because a former Fahionista intern did the dressing honors backstage.

— When people, read gay men, who love fashion and half naked men come together they can do a whole lot of good. The benefit raised so much money for Lambda Legal, The Hetrick Martin Institute, Gay Men’s Health Crisis and The Point Foundation - go next year!
