Let’s Play Dress Up With Lara
By Kate Kaunitz
Lara Stone is getting married, and while we wait with bated breath to see the dress she dons, we thought we’d have a little fun and play stylist for the afternoon.
We’ve picked out a few things we’d love to see her wear down the aisle. Some are practical, but most are not.
In reality, she’ll most likely wear something custom-made, and probably by Karl. Regardless, we can’t wait to see what she does choose.

With Fashion Week just around the corner, we decided to make a list of six models to watch. These girls are some of our favorite new faces, and we’re eager to see what’s next for them.
Meet Marloes Horst, Hannah Holman, Ginta Lapina, Frida Gustavsson, Nimue Smit, and Valerija Kelava.
With some editorial and runway work under their size zero belts, these six models are bound to make it big in 2010.

Rumors of Lara in a Gaga video? Be still our fashion hearts. Someone make this happen. Thanks.
We never tire of seeing old pictures of people when they were kids.
Videos of future supermodels? Even better!
Thanks goes to Julia Frakes for tweeting about this little gem where a young Naomi Campbell shows us that her feisty streak indeed began at a very young age, on 70s television in Britain.
We wouldn’t have her any other way.
Erin Wasson already has a few slashes in her job title: model/designer/jewelry maker.
Now, you may have varying opinions about her abilities and/or creativity at the last two there. But soon, you’ll have something new to critique. In a completely unoriginal move, Ms. Wasson has said she’ll soon be trying her hand at acting.
Hey, maybe that’s good thing and she’s going to be the next Cameron Diaz or Halle Berry. Or maybe she’s going to do a movie like that horrible Cindy Crawford vehicle, Fair Game. We’ll have to just wait and see.
In the meantime, looks like she’ll also be hard at work on the jewelry front, creating a lower priced version of her goods.
Busy lady. Hopefully this will keep her mind off the Phi news.
2009 has been the year of new ventures and expanding résumés for some of fashion’s finest. From Valentino’s documentary to The September Issue and Tom Ford’s A Single Man, fashion’s biggest names have taken the film world by storm.
Well, Karl’s jumped outside his short-film-as-commercial box and made a slightly longer feature he’s called Vol de Jour. He directs Lara Stone and Baptiste Giabiconi while they ransack Chanel stores all over Paris and they make out with some great loot! I just wish it didn’t end there. Perhaps we can persuade Karl for a Vol de Jour, parte deux?
After all, where there are robbers, there are cops right? All I can think about is how perfect a jail scene would be — Lara in this and Baptiste in this. Now that’s cell block chic.
Personally, I couldn’t be happier to see that the trend of booking plus-size models for major editorials is showing no signs of slowing down, and actually becoming normal instead of novelty.
There were so many times during my tenure as beauty director at YM where we wanted to use non-super skinny girls and there was nary an actual teenage one to book. Until Crystal Renn.
We told you about her upcoming V story. And we just heard that she went super blond for a shoot with Italian Vanity Fair. It’s supposed to be a touch of Anna Nicole in her heyday and word is the advance shots look pretty incredible.
Another once “regular” sized model, Amy Lemons, is shooting 22 pages with Tesh for French Elle over the next couple of days, complete with cover tries.
Here’s to the day where this happens in America and it doesn’t have to be a story on the Today Show.
In what feels like a direct rebuttal to the raunchy sexuality of this Lindsay video at her Muse shoot, Models.com has a quick behind-the-scenes peek at Abbey Lee Kershaw’s Greg Kadel shoot for the magazine.
You know we love Abbey and this is just a little taste of why. It’s elfin, ethereal, quirky and pretty all at the same time. We feel like our palate has been officially cleansed.
(And there’s a little bare breast action, so consider yourself warned if that doesn’t play well at your office.)
It’s always exciting when a new fashion video comes out and we get a behind the scenes peek into the amazing experience that is a photo shoot.
Well Flair Austria took this idea to the next level when they decided to team up with Vision On to create a fashion film editorial. Titled “La Demimondaine”, the film ed stars Austrian supermodel Iris Strubegger as a Marlene Dietrich-inspired clubgoer. Iris sips red wine, smokes a cigarette and looks captivating as she makes her way through NYC’s nightclub The Box. The film is beautiful and anything Iris-related makes me a very happy girl.
So you’re probably still wondering how the film translates to editorial? Here’s how it works: the crew filmed the video with just one camera and then pulled stills from the finished video to create the editorial we see in the magazine. Pretty cool idea, right? It’s like a two for the price of one deal.
Check out the December issue to see which stills made the cut!
