If Abbey Lee Kershaw looked extra serious and withdrawn on the Met Gala red carpet Monday night (check her out below), most likely it was because she was busy calculating the exact appropriate moment of the evening to do THIS!
Galliano’s not going. See who is.
John Malkovich is partnering with Yoox for a capsule under his Technobohemian menswear label. Seriously. {WWD}
Cartier is (unsurprisingly) less-than-happy about the unauthorized line of beanies that turned their name into something naughtier. They’re threatening to see the maker in court–presumably not next Tuesday. (C-U-Next-Tuesday–get it?) {HuffPo}
Michelle Obama is supposedly going to wear Reed Krakoff for her rumored April Vogue cover. {Washington Post}
Part of being a style icon means wearing exactly what you want. Rachel Bilson does just that, saying, “All men hate harem pants, but I don’t give a s—t.” {Us Weekly}
Nordstrom will open CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund pop-up shops in six locations around the country this spring–so you’ll have access to a selection of designs from finalists like Wes Gordon, Suno, Giulietta and more. Yay! {WWD}
Tonight she’ll don wings for Victoria’s Secret, but Alessandra Ambrosio has her own angel stealing the spotlight. Her daughter Anja stars with her model mommy in the latest London Fog ads. {HuffPo}
Does Anja Rubik know good sex? We’ll soon be finding out: The catwalk queen with the pelvic bone seen round the world is set to relaunch 25 Magazine, a project she started way back in 2009 with her then-future husband, fellow model Sasha Knezevic. She’ll re-introduce the glossy tomorrow at Cannes.
Inspired by 1970s adult women’s erotica magazine Viva, the model-cum-editor chose to revamp 25 with an overtly sexual erotica theme.
File this under “things that make us feel weird inside”: Tom Cruise’s crazyass W spread has just been released in its entirety. Photographed by Mario Sorrenti, the shoot sees Cruise, in character as an aging rock god for his upcoming role in the big screen adaptation of Rock of Ages, getting wasted in a dingy Read more →
Here’s family man Tom Cruise like you’ve never seen him before–at least not in a really long time–on another surprising, but definitely attention-grabbing W cover. As you may or may not be aware, Cruise is set to star as Stacee Jaxx in the big screen adaptation of Broadway musical Rock of Ages. Hence the long Read more →
Singer, model, and general bad ass, Abbey Lee Kershaw is about to add yet another title to her already jampacked resume: Actress.
According to Australia’s Telegraph, Kershaw is set to make her acting debut in sci-fi action thriller Mad Max 4, alongside Charlize Theron, Tom Hardy and Zoe Kravitz.
The film is directed by George Miller, who also directed the past three movies in the series, and is set to start shooting in Namibia this month. Which means we may not be seeing too much of Abbey in the fashion world for a little while. Something we can expect to see her in, though, apparently is a cage.
Finally, we have a full fashion editorial to go a long with those mesmerizing gifs of Jessica Stam, Abbey Lee et al donning ridiculous, over-the-top hair and makeup. The spread stars March cover girl Joan Smalls, along with more of our faves: Jessica Stam, Karen Elson, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Lindsey Wixson, Daphne Groeneveld, Guinevere van Read more →
The Other Missing Model: Though we all miss Karlie, many have been surprised this season at the lack of Abbey Lee Kershaw on the runways. Turns out she’s having knee surgery tomorrow (ouch!). The model has been plagued with knee issues for years, and we certainly wish her a speedy recovery. But there’s also a rumor she’s working on the next Spielberg film – something her New York Agency Next Model Management did not confirm or deny. {Frockwriter}
Ferragamo Partners with the Louvre: The Italian brand has announced that it will be the exclusive sponsor of the upcoming exhibit “Saint Anne, Leonardo da Vinci’s Ultimate Masterpiece,” running from March 29 to June 25 at the Louvre. In an historic move, Ferragamo will show Resort on June 12 in the Denon wing, the first time the Louvre has allowed a fashion show within the museum itself. Chairman Ferruccio Ferragamo considers the sponsorship “a great honor.” {WWD}
Angelina’s Face Covers Vogue Turkey: She’s not just a pretty (and hilarious) leg. Jolie looks fantastic on the cover of this month’s Turkish edition of Vogue, reminding everyone that her face is just as worthy of attention as her gams. {ONTD}
Duchess Kate Was NOT Wearing Real Fur: All woodland creatures can now breathe a sigh of relief. After garnering praise from the International Fur Foundation and extreme criticism from PETA (shocker) over a shearling-type jacket she wore on an outing with Wills, the Palace sent out a press release stating that the fur worn by the Duchess formerly known as Kate Middleton was, indeed, faux. {Vogue UK}
Get Ready for CK One Cosmetics: After 18 years as a brand, CK One will introduce its first-ever makeup collection. The reasonably priced cosmetics will launch in the US exclusively at Ulta stores in April. The beauty products, which are faced by the likes of Lara Stone and and Abbey Lee Kershaw, won’t be about transformation (hello, digital alteration…), but about “looking real, defining yourself and adding intensity.” {WWD, subscription required}
Daniel Radcliffe Does Bullett Magazine: If it’s wrong for me to be strangely attracted to Dan Rad on his Bullett cover, why does it feel so very right? {MTV Style}
Vogue Italia and Steven Meisel have hopped on the fashion gif bandwagon, and of course, the results are amazing. The gifs are up on Vogue Italia’s website as a preview for the mag’s March spring fashion issue, called “Haute Mess,” featuring Coco Rocha and Abbey Lee Kershaw.
