Brands shell out big bucks every season to get the biggest faces in fashion to front their campaigns. But the trend this season, somewhat curiously, seems to be steering clear of faces altogether.
18-year-old Lily McMenamy has landed her first big-name designer campaign, for Marc Jacobs--and all she had to do was take off her top. (Kidding!)
Lily McMenamy follows in the footsteps of her supermodel mom Kristen's 1993 i-D cover with her own for the magazine's The Time Is Now Issue. {i-D} Alexander Wang has girls' bathroom privileges. At the Met Gala, Chanel Iman spilled on "the real party" that goes on in the ladies' room where models, actresses, and Wang all take a bathroom break to catch up with each other. {New York Post} Allison Williams says Christopher Abbott's abrupt and show-changing exit from Girls will have "a huge effect...[on the character of] Marnie specifically." And us! Don't forget about us. {US Weekly} Here comes the bride, all dressed in... red? A recent study has found that 24% of young brides are ditching white wedding dresses for brighter-colored frocks in red, pink, or blue. {Daily Mail}
Balenciaga's fall/winter 2013/2014 campaign broke today on the brand's website, and with it, we get a first look at new creative director Alexander Wang's vision for the house.
"Kristen was a big problem with my brother at first; she was crazy!" recalls designer Donatella Versace in a new Style.com/Print profile of supermodel Kirsten McMenamy. According to Versace, it was "like a war" anytime a new girl came on the scene, and when McMenamy arrived in the early '90s, well, let's just say we kinda wish fashion reality shows were around then.
The most social media'd photo from last night's Marc Jacobs show is easily of 18-year-old Lily McMenamy, supermodel Kristen McMenamy's newbie model-daughter. Why? Well, she wasn't wearing much of anything. This marks McMenamy's third ever runway show.
Long Nguyen is the co-founder and style director of Flaunt PARIS--Donatella Versace could not have chosen a more appropriate locale for her Atelier Versace show. She presented her spring couture collection at Le Centorial, a turn of the century restored building in the Bourse area of Paris which was, at the time of its construction in 1876, a revoluationary architectural project built by Gustave Eiffel's firm. Old traditions met modern steel and glass constructions; the dome of Le Centorial rivaled that of the Grand Palais. So it was fitting that Versace's collection was all about the interplay between structured garments and soft fabrics.
When your mom is supermodel Kristen McMenamy, it could be hard growing up in such a tall and legendary shadow. Not so for McMenamy's 18-year-old daughter, Lily McMenamy, who moved to Paris and landed Saint Laurent (as we told you she would) and Chanel as her first ever runway shows. Not too shabby.
It seems 90s supermodel Kristen McMenamy's daughter Lily McMenamy is set to follow in her mother's footsteps: Rumor has it the 18-year-old will make her runway debut during Paris Fashion Week--and we hear she's even nabbed herself a big exclusive. Clearly, good looks (and serious cat walk skills) run in the family!
Love Issue 8 hit newsstands today and in addition to all the Downton Abbey amazingness, there are tons of goodies to be found inside. Love gave us an
Supermodels are having a resurgence. Our faves from the 80s and 90s are still popping up on runways (Alexander Wang), editorials (Naomi Campbell in W
When Claudia Schiffer's Guess ads dropped yesterday we literally had trouble deciphering between the current ones and the ones from 1989. I mean, the woman has not aged a day! In 23 years! Then today, Christy Turlington goes ahead and shows up on Tatler also preternaturally unchanged. This got us thinking about all our favorite 90s supermodels--Naomi, Cindy, Elle, etc.,--whose modeling careers are still kicking, well into their forties. And it's not hard to see why: The ladies are as gorgeous as they were twenty years ago. And there's nary a boob that has dropped even an inch. Don't believe us? Click through the gallery below for a side-by-side comparison of some of our favorite supermodels today--and way back when.
Last night’s McQ show was, if not fashion history, then certainly London Fashion Week history. The diffusion line’s first runway show brought back s
Dont judge a book by its cover... Unless it's a magazine, in which case, sometimes the cover is the deciding factor of whether or not to buy the mag altogether. The best covers of 2011 returned to a new naturalism and a fun aesthetic, like the Lara Stone T cover we're still drooling over, pictured at left. Sure, there's still room for artifice in fashion (see: Stella Tennant on Vogue Italia), but 2011 was a year for reflecting on natural beauties, incredible models, and stellar photography. After toiling over hundred of covers, we're bringing you "The Best" according to us. Did we forget your favorite? Let us know in the comments.
The results from the British Fashion Awards are in and while there are a lot of familiar names in the winners' circle, there are some surprises, too. Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen won for Designer of the Year (deservedly so). Alexa Chung took home the British Style award, which normally wouldn't be so shocking--except this year she was up against Kate Middleton *gasp*. The Model category, made up of industry vets and a relative newcover, was a bit of a wild card. Stella Tennant, looking amazing in a skinny tuxedo, beat out Georgia May Jagger and Kristen McMenamy. Victoria Beckham, now a bona fide fashion designer, had some stiff competition with Burberry, Stella McCartney and Tom Ford for Designer Brand, but she won. Quite an achievement for a former pleather-wearing Spice Girl. Click through for a full list of winners:
The British Fashion Council has just announced the nominees for the 2011 British Fashion Awards, which are essentially the U.K.'s answer to our prestigious CFDA's. The ceremony, which is scheduled for November 28, is meant to recognize the most influential people in fashion today and also promote the growth of British fashion. With all the attention the U.K. has been getting lately for that stylish princess of theirs and being dubbed the "new fashion capital," British fashion is definitely more relevant than ever this year. That may be why the BFC has decided to re-introduce the Red Carpet award, which "gives recognition to a British designer who is creating global awareness of their designs in the media." From Kim Jones to Stella McCartney to Erdem, here are all the nominees:
Clearly, we can't get enough of LOVE's forthcoming fall/winter issue. We were a little sad when we realized all eight covers had been released. Lucki
To say we love LOVE is an understatement. We're kinda obsessed. Watching the covers for issue six trickle in was half the fun, so we're a bit sad all eight LOVE covers have been revealed. All total we've got Elle Fanning, Chloe Moretz, Hailee Steinfeld, Lara Stone, Kristen McMenamy, Mariacarla Boscono, Nyasha Matonhodze and Daphne Groeneveld all crying, sans makeup, on the covers of the coveted fashion book. So now the question is: which one is our favorite? Which one is yours? The model covers and accompanying editorial is shot by Mert and Marcus, and styled by Katie Grand and Panos Yiapanis. Take a look.
The LOVE buzz just won't stop! Elle Fanning and Chloe Moretz's covers debuted on models.com this week, which has only fueled the LOVE speculation: who else would cover the beloved fashion book? While we guessed that Hailee Steinfeld would be next (Elle+Chloe+Hailee is kind of a thing), we were certain we'd have to wait until Friday to find out. But no! Fashion's favorite man about town Derek Blasberg convinced Katie Grand to spill the beans last night at dinner. Lucky for us, Derek couldn't keep the news to himself, so he Tweeted it around 9pm last night. Thanks D! According to Derek's Tweets the models for the other five unreleased LOVE covers are:
Givenchy has just released some behind the scenes photos from the label's 2012 fall campaign shoot. You know, the one that had Naomi Campbell, Natalia Vodianova, Kristen McMenamy and Mariacarla Boscono growling like wild cats? Well here's how they got in character. We're loving Kristen McMenamy sans makeup avec nose ring. Click through to see more behind the scenes photos as well as the final product.
The fall campaigns keep rolling in today, the latest of which feature some very big names. The first image from Givenchy's Fall Women's campaign surfaced on Style.com. It was shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott and stars Naomi Campbell. If it looks like she's making a slightly frightening scowl, that's because the campaign (and the collection) is feline-inspired. Things get even crazier in the behind-the-scenes video of the shoot which features Naomi, Natalia Vodianova, Kristen McMenamy, and Mariacarla Boscono posing on ornate pillows with their best growl faces. Unfortunately, we can't hear if the models are actually saying "grr," but that's probably a good thing.
Azzadine Alaia Was Called To Take Over For Galliano: He was flattered but declined (he is in his 70s, after all). However, as the Financial Times observes, given Alaia's rejection of the industry's hyper-speed and the accompanying pressures, this may indicate that Dior is looking to change its ways. {Financial Times} CreatetheGroup Aquires Morpheus Media: The digital media companies, which develop strategy, creative content and marketing on new media platforms, will now operate under the same umbrella. Clients include Burberry and Marc Jacobs (considered fashion's digital pioneers), Net-a-porter, Louis Vuitton and others. {WWD} A Woman Went A Month Without Looking In A Mirror: The Daily Mail's Marrianne Power decided to test studies that show women are their own harshest critics by going a full month without using or looking in a mirror. Turns out, she looked more relaxed, got more compliments and felt loads better about herself . {Daily Mail}
Karl Lagerfeld presented his 73-look resort collection for Chanel yesterday in Cannes. All his starlet muses were there including Blake Lively, who was eagerly snapping photos of the show with her iPhone (just like us!) and gushed to WWD, "My gosh, I think I’m going to move here!" Lagerfeld's Magnum ice cream girl Rachel Bilson, Clemence Poesy, and Alexa Chung were also among the 200 attendees. The runway was packed with top models--including vets like Stella Tennant and Kristen McMenamy, who walked the runway in a high-cut bathing suit (and gave every girl motivation to look that good at 42).
