This Balmain ad with Cindy, Naomi and Claudia inspired a goodly amount of nostalgia for the era when supermodels were actually super models, and slaying was not just a hashtag but a way of life. They were goddesses of runway and print, but they also had some fire behind the eyes—that and perfect timing was their true…
A number of U.K. modeling agencies are under investigation for fixing their pricing with fashion houses. Fuck you, pay me is always in style, it seems.
Last night at the Council of Fashion Designers of America, designers and celebrities hit the red carpet in ensembles both incredibly fashionable and incredibly ugly.
Yesterday morning, Linda Evangelista and François-Henri Pinault walked into a Manhattan family court practically arm-in-arm. There, their lawyers informed the court that the former couple had reached agreement on an 11th-hour settlement of their contentious child-support lawsuit. Evangelista, whose testimony began…
In a modern take on the Ab Fab Saffy and Edina relationship, it's been revealed that Frances Bean Cobain is taking control and now owns all the rights to her dad Kurt's image, likeness and publicity, after using her mom Courtney Love's request for a multi-million-dollar loan as leverage. With Love coming to her…
Linda Evangelista's lawyers and François-Henri Pinault's lawyers will meet in a Manhattan family court room Thursday to do scary lawyer-things to one another. Then a judge will decide whether Evangelista's petition for child support for her and Pinault's 5-year-old son Augustin will be granted. Evangelista — who never…
Working moms are subject to a lot of pressures, and Victoria Beckham was clearly at their sleep-deprived mercy when she started to drive her son Brooklyn to school and got halfway there before realizing she didn't bother to make sure he was, you know, actually in the car. "I jumped in my Range Rover, put the car seat…
For its art issue, W approached Steven Meisel to shoot nine advertisements for fake products and sprinkle them in with the real ads. The results are arresting, funny, and occasionally subversive. Behold: Linda Evangelista shilling shampoo, Joan Rivers in fur, and Toddlers & Tiara's Eden Wood fronting for a children's…
Linda Evangelista recently revealed in a court filing that the father of her 4-year-old son is not, as she'd claimed previously, "a Manhattan architect," but is in fact François-Henri Pinault — husband of Salma Hayek, father of her 3-year-old daughter, and one of the richest luxury tycoons in the world. Now in a new…
C'est un SCANDALE: the identity of the man who fathered Linda Evangelista's four-year-old son has now, via court filings, been revealed. It is not, as the O.G. supermodel had claimed vaguely in interviews, "a New York architect." The father is in fact François-Henri Pinault, the French businessman and longtime rival…
The Internet loves a good game of This Thing Looks Like That Thing. Today's players? Vogue Paris, Vogue Italia, Emmanuelle Alt, Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and Steven Meisel. The charge is that Alt, the recently-installed editor of Vogue Paris, ripped off her latest cover editorial from a 1989 Linda Evangelista …
One of the most uncomfortable truths about the fashion industry is that most models begin working when they are in their early teens or even tweens; they are children. In this editorial, Vogue Paris cuts right to the chase.
When I next guest-edit an issue of a prestigious fashion magazine, I must remember to step behind the camera and snap out an homage to Jocelyn Wildenstein. And to put plenty of oral sex in it. Warning: NSFW.
To fête its 90th year, Vogue Paris has published a gallery of 50 of its covers. We've always dug Filippa Hamilton's and Liya Kebede's, both from 2002, but now Andy Warhol's portrait of Caroline de Monaco might be our favorite.
