Back in the 90s, Shalom Harlow was everywhere–from Chanel campaigns to couture, she was one of the supers, (along with Kate Moss, Karolina Kurkova, Amber Valetta et al) and a particular favorite of the fashion set. In the early 2000s, she still worked steadily and added the “slash actress” to her resume, appearing in films Read more →

We’re Going Karl Krazy: In the absolute best, most chilled-out way possible. From his commentary on the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee (and K-Mid’s tush) to this heart-thawing tale of a street-side Karl encounter, we can’t get enough of Karl.
Shalom Harlow is the latest 90s supermodel to be staging a comeback. After walking in the Alexander Wang’s fall 2012 show, she’s popping up in editorials and ad campaigns, and we couldn’t be happier to see her back on the circuit. For her latest gig, she covers Oyster mag’s “All Woman” issue, and stars in Read more →
After a four-year hiatus from the runway, 90s supermodel Shalom Harlow made headlines when she took to the catwalk again for Alexander Wang’s Fall 2012 show. Now, in a candid video for Alexander Wang’s new Confessional series, Harlow dishes on what it was like to get back on the horse–or in this case, the catwalk–after Read more →
It took Cartier nearly two years and a crew of 60 trained specialists to complete the brand’s first-ever short film, so it was a no-brainer that the legendary French jewelry house would go all out to celebrate the premiere of L’Odyssée de Cartier. Now before we even go into discussing the cinema piece that celebrates Read more →
Raf Simons Leaves Jil Sander: After an emotional final show at Jil Sander, rumors are flying about what he will do next now that Jil Sander is returning to her eponymous label. Sounds like he probably isn’t going to Dior, and with reports emerging Hedi Slimane will replace Stefano Pilati at YSL, we’re more confused than ever.

With their new health initiative guideline that models be ID’d to prove they are above the age of 16, the CFDA is making an effort to create a healthier and fairer work environment for models. But is the fashion industry even listening? We asked designers, models and casting agents during New York Fashion Week, and the answer seems to be: Wellll, not really.
After hearing about the makeup look from pro Diane Kendal backstage at the Alexander Wang show yesterday, I was about to tweet: “Someday Alex Wang will put his girls in a strong red lip—but today isn’t the day.” Yep, same old grungy Wang girl. Ho hum. But then a colleague said to me, “Look, Gisele is over there.”
The day quickly went from ho-hum to holy shit. Gisele was walking in the Alexander Wang show! She kept press at arm’s length backstage, telling photogs and reporters (who obviously gathered around her chair like the fawning subjects we all are) that she wasn’t giving any sound bites today. I’m assuming she didn’t want to hear the word “football” at all, after her little outburst from last weekend. Instead we all watched as she flirted with Guido Palau while he did her hair in the usual limp Alex Wang way. After taking about a zillion pictures of her looking perfect without makeup, I wandered over to a different section.
Today the Fashionista team was busy running all over Manhattan to catch shows from Alexander Wang, Prabal Gurung, Altuzarra, Band of Outsders, Rachel Antonoff, Wes Gordon, and so many more!
In between taxis, subways, and the occasional pedi-cab, we managed to take a few snaps of NYFW through our eyes. Click through the gallery to see everything from Gisele backstage at Alexander Wang (yes, this happened and we almost died) to a real cat posing with models at Rachel Antonoff!
Notice something….amiss in the above photo? As in literally missing? Yep, Vogue seems to have lost Amber Valletta’s leg in their latest editorial, lensed by Steven Meisel Steven Klein.
