Ashton Kutcher Returns to Modeling, Walks Half the Runway for Colcci at Sao Paulo Fashion Week

SAO PAULO–If you blinked, you might have missed it. Ashton Kutcher walked the runway for Brazilian label Colcci last night at Sao Paulo Fashion Week. And he didn’t seem too thrilled about it either, despite the hefty paycheck he undoubtedly received for making the brief appearance. Perhaps he was sad to be without his wife, who accompanied him to last season’s show when he walked for the label for the first time.

Kutcher, who got his start has a model, opened the show alongside Alessandra Ambrosio wearing a mariniere with the sleeves casually pushed up, cuffed jeans and white oxfords. Ambrosio wore far less–a bright orange swimsuit with a cropped puffer coat (makes total sense, right?). Kutcher and Ambrosio also star in the label’s print campaign.

Kutcher looked good if a bit lackluster and scratched his back as he walked down the runway next to a smiling Ambrosio.

Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2011: Bright Star

MILAN–I couldn’t help humming Boy George’s “Karma Chameleon” as I walked out of the Dolce & Gabbana show this afternoon. Playing up the late ’80s vibe they put out at the D&G show, Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce created a collection of old school contrasts: skinny girls (Arizona Muse, Abbey Lee) dressed up like boys in tuxedos and brogues; curvy girls (Isabeli Fontana, Candice Swanepoel) dressed up like starlets, literally covered in stars. It was fun, pretty, and, most of all, wearable beneath the bells and whistles.
