Kristin Prim and Sky Ferreira to Star in Diesel’s Spring 2011 Campaign?

Let the Spring 2011 rumors begin swirling…

An educated tipster informs us that teen fashion editor Kristin Prim and up-and-coming pop star Sky Ferreira have been tapped to star in Diesel‘s Spring 2011 ad campaign.

Fashion Is Fun

A Very Diesel Time

On Friday, Diesel sent a handful of editors a party-in-a-box. It had one pair of glow in the dark jeans, a glow stick, a whistle, a sugar-free Red Bull, Belvedere vodka, a black light and loads of confetti. Why? I wasn’t sure. It turns out they’re throwing a party next Tuesday, October 27th. Though we Read more →

Trendspotting: Just Like A Circus

Way back in Fall 07, Miu Miu became the ringleader of the circus-y trend with their Harlequin collection, which reverberated across the fashion board, all the way from Topshop to Phillip Lim. This season, the circus look was full-on at Erin Fetherston, Manish Arora and Diesel, making a certain pop princess look especially prescient. –CARSON Read more →
