America's Next Top Model

All the news you need to know (once you're done drooling over Rosie).

Andre Leon Talley is one of the most beloved, larger-than-life (literally and figuratively) personalities in the fashion industry. So it's fitting that he was the latest fashion figure to sit down at the 92Y with Fern Mallis for her "Fashion Icons" series.

Real quote: “Helen Keller could have picked a better gown."

American Apparel, known for its more diverse--if not controversial--ad campaigns, recently put out a search for transgender models.

Is Jay-Z's style moving into dad-territory? The rapper just cannot take off his Theory button-up (buttoned up to the neck, no less). {The Cut} Looks like David Beckham is really taking it easy during his retirement--psych! The soccer star signed on to host a Saturday morning children's television show that aims to help kids get back into sports. {InStyle UK} As more fashion designers make their foray into beauty, it seems they are changing the face (get it?) of the makeup industry. {New York Times} Here's a sight for sore eyes!

Condé Nast welcomes a royal into its family. Kate Middleton's 29-year-old sister, Pippa, is Vanity Fair's newest contributing editor. {NY Post} Alexander Wang's faceless model campaign for Balenciaga continues. {Grazia} One Direction has unveiled a fragrance called "Our Moment," which comes in vaguely fan art-looking packaging and a pink bottle. The scent is that of pink grapefruit, wild berries, and red currants--not like it matters very much what it smells like, anyway. {WWD} No Chanel exclusive for 'jersey': The UK Intellectual Property Office has denied the iconic French house the trademark for the word 'jersey,' which has been the name of one of the brand's fragrance lines from 2011. {HuffPo}

Always the optimist... {US Weekly}

Nigel Barker, who was on America’s Next Top Model for 17 seasons (seventeen--think about that, people) returns to reality tv with Oxygen’s The Face on February 12. The fashion industry might not be shying away from television exposure now, but according to Barker, that wasn't always the case.

Victoria Beckham tweeted a photo of her fortune about her family going on a road trip, so naturally, it means they're moving! {InStyle UK} Don't get too excited about seeing Kate Middleton maternity outfits just yet--reports say she might have to hide out for the rest of December, if not longer. {The Cut} Megan Fox says she gained 23 lbs during her pregnancy, but unlike other starlets, she's not in a rush to lose them. {US Weekly} Emma Stone was out promoting Revlon and chatted about everything from serial killers to skin issues. True story: She used to have bad acne. Who would have thought, right? {Nylon/Refinery29}

1. Holy hell, what kind of crazy is Tyra on this episode... and where can I get some? 2. Was this episode originally meant to coincide with Halloween or something? 3. Does this mean that none of the eliminated girls (except, tear... Victoria?) actually returned to their island home and packed their bags to leave Jamaica immediately after being eliminated? And the girls who never even made it to Jamaica got a free trip anyway?

After spending cycle after cycle trying to teach America's Next Top Model hopefuls how to smize, Tyra Banks has finally launched an iPhone app that can do it for you. It's actually pretty cool and a little creepy.

1. What's with these bad trip retrospectives? (At least the echo effect was a nice touch?) 2. Did the producers force Laura to cry on the phone to her mom in order to make up for the lack of Victoria? 3. Isn't it unfair that these horses are getting flack just because of some rogue dick dolphin? Or are all the animals of Jamaica really ganging up to seek revenge on Tyra?

1. Oh my god--did anyone else think Victoria going home last week was just a bad dream? Tear. 2. On that note... how is Kristin still here? 3. Who would guess Tyra has Delfiniphobia (a fear of dolphins)?

1. Forget about Leila's walk and Kiara's photos--does Kristin not realize that everyone watching ANTM can see her awful personality? 2. Did Kiara actually just ask the Jamaican male models if they've ever heard of Las Vegas? Cringe. 3. Is Tyra too godly to take the same flight as the girls? 4. Was Tyra's impromptu lesson on smizing and tooching far more valuable to real life than anything I ever learned during all four years of earning my college degree? 5. Is anyone surprised that Victoria once participated in a Siamese ballet?

1. Isn't that kind of unfair of Laura to put so much pressure on God's shoulders regarding this week's ANTM challenge outcome? 2. Why are the girls asking where Victoria is during their religious table prayer? Don't they know she's Jewish and Native American??!! 3. Based on the reactions of the other girls, was Victoria's comment about liking brownie cookies the most disturbing and/or offensive moment in the history of reality television?

How awesome has it been having “the sexiest male supermodel in the world Rob Evans" in your living room for an hour every Friday while you're watching America's Next Top Model? Tyra Banks gets it--and she's decided to kick that awesomeness way, way up a notch. The CW announced last night that, along with renewing the ever-enduring reality franchise, the upcoming cycle will, for the first time ever, include male models. That's right: Half of Cycle 20's cast will be dudes.

Lately it seems like reunions are everywhere: the Beverly Hills gang in Old Navy commercials, Entertainment Weekly's Reunions Issue, the upcoming Arrested Development reunion (the only one that truly matters, let's get real). Funnily enough, no one called us to see who we'd like to see reunited, so we thought we'd make our own list. We're not ones to be left out of a trend after all! We put our thinking caps on to come up with ten fashion reunions we'd like to see here at Fashionista - we will even moderate. It's guaranteed to be way chicer than your high school reunion.

1. When do the girls have a chance to even wear the clothes in the Tyra Suite? 2. Can someone please enlighten us about a supermodel who got her start as a stunt person for video games (and we're not talking Prada)? 3. Does Brittany not realize that everyone else is also trying to win the competition? 4. And what ever happened to cohesion between challenges and shoots? How did we go from video games to steampunk?
