Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is on the cover of the 101st edition of the international fashion magazine Numéro. On this dark and artistic cover photo, shot by Greg Kadel, Gisele is dressed in a gorgeous Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2009 ensemble, which actually makes it a shame that the photo

These sunglasses are out of control! The new ad campaign for Vera Wang S/S 09 shot by photographer Collier Schorr have an early nineties look and feel. The juxtaposition of the bold, almost harsh looking, sunglasses and the thin, delicate top/dress Tennant is wearing is surprisingly appealing to the eye.

The news has been doing the rounds over the weekend, but we felt we should start the week with this news for posterity. Number (N)ine’s recently displayed AW09 collection – which was called ‘a closed feeling’ – will be their last. Hint Magazine received a letter from the company stating

Gareth Pugh.

Grazia is hearing Gareth Pugh will replace Kris Van Assche as head designer of Dior Homme. LVMH hasn’t confirmed the report, but an announcement is expected any day, according to chatter at London Fashion Week. Speculation that Pugh might take the reins from Van Assche reached a fever pitch

Leave it to Steven Meisel to out-do Madonna. Not to mention provide the answer to our-is fashion-week over-yet-prayers. if you haven’t picked up the latest issue of W, get a copy. Yes, there is Madge’s amorous romp with a famously younger stallion. But we were equally distracted from our Bryant

Take a look into the backstage of New York Fashion Week. Zac Posen’s runway offerings continued to celebrate refined, lady-like elegance and grace, as silken dresses with layered ruffle hems and bouffant sleeves lent models a regal air. Backstage photography by Mark Reay.

I have been so into the western/southern rock/down and dirty fashion lately. I love the contradiction between model Toni Garrn’s look and the rugged background she’s being photographed in. The leather pieces look fantastic; I’m hardcore digging the fringed leather gloves. Greg Kadel did a great job of bringing the

Secret Thoughts by Mark Velasquez is a series that explores what women really feel but do not say about the relationships they are in.

These secret thoughts are written over the bodies of female models in areas that are usually covered with clothes.

The thoughts include things like, “I’m tired of playing your

The secret behind Britney Spear’s fabulous shoes she’s wearing in photos from her highly anticipated “If U Seek Amy” video has been uncovered.

In the shots, Spears rocks a dramatic pair of red pumps adorned with ruched petals and a wedge toe.

Celebuzz has learned that shoemaster Christian Louboutin created the pair,

Actress Camilla Belle looks gorgeous in the spread “Belle de Jour” shot by Mark Abrahams for GQ magazine. The 22-year-old starlet has been working on a few new movies set to come out in the next couple of years. Aside from being a rising star, Belle has been dating Joe Jonas

Fashion Week in New York ends Friday, but take a short walk from the big tents (which, face it, you’re not going to get into anyway) and you’ll see enough models making fierce faces and striking poses to last the whole season. Through mid-May, the International Center for Photography is devoting

Touches of the Orient — metallic embroidery, tasseled panels — gave Alice Temperley’s Grecian columns and minidresses an edge.

The presentation of this collection is pretty cool. I hate when designers don’t walk their collections down a runway, because the way the garment moves with the body has a lot to

Kate Moss looks fucking amazing in this voodoo magic spread shot by fashion photographer duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot for W Magazine. Her hair and makeup is so done that it almost looks primitive. I love the garments, or lack there of, this stylist dressed her in; it also

It’s kind of weird and creepy how these two sort of resemble David and Victoria Beckham. I wonder what they really will look like? Let’s put this one in a time capsule and find out.

Seventy-year-old British magician Paul Daniels has fought back with humor at tabloids who attempted to embarrass

I’m sort of wondering if Diane von Furstenberg has gone completely bat-shit crazy being in this industry for so long. Her fall collection was out of control, featuring huge hats, overly-thick sweaters and print mixing like I’ve never seen before. I actually kind of love it. I could easily do

I love this spread shot by Solve Sundsbo for Vogue Italia even though Iris Strubegger looks super creepy as a wax statue. Regardless,  makeup artist Maria Olsson did a phenomenal job making Strubegger’s flesh look man-made. All of the dresses look fantastic on her, but I especially love this backless number.

In men’s wear, Scott Sternberg continued to nurture the cult following for his extremely narrow, boyish suits.

Season after season, Band of Outsiders has the sharpest, sexiest menswear that my eyes could ever ask for. Slim-fit pinstripe suits, bright ties worn with preppy crew neck sweaters and tuxedo jackets paired with

As a Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week virgin, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the Bryant Park tents. The crowds, the celebrities, the gossip- yawn.  William Rast’s fall 09 collection- tremendous. Everything about the show from the music to the fringed leather carried me from the city to dirty and down-home

This spring, SSENSE is introducing designers Alexandre Herchcovitch, Maison Martin Margiela, Rick Owens Drkshdw, Twenty8Twelve, Milly, Current/Elliot and Kris Van Assche to their boutique, which already includes labels like Acne, Ksubi, Robert Rodriguez, Clu and Black Halo.  This, along with the re-launch of their flagship boutique, puts SSENSE in high demand.

Olga Kurylenko looks like a fierce, Austin Powers secret agent-esque version of an American Apparel ad. Give me a metallic jumpsuit any day of the week, but what I’m really concentrating on here are the accessories. Can I get hooked-up quick with a gold handgun, black crystal-studded cuffs and some huge,

I am obsessed with this spread in the March issue of Vogue UK. Aggy Deyn looks amazing in acidic colors and red lipstick. Her hair looks fabulous, and she can do no wrong in these outfits. I always think Aggy is soooo overrated, but she definitely lived up to her

I’ve always associated J.C. Penney with oxford shirts and penny loafers. Why, you ask? Because Catholic grade school required that we wear them. I’ve never considered the department store as fashionable, but I never complained because a trip to that particular mall meant a trip to Deb. And if you

“Meet fashion’s boys Who are girls Who like girls to be boys”, the tag line on the March 09 cover of Dazed & Confused, is quite appropriate with model couple Ash and Eliza half-naked and in your face. I love them and I love this photo; it’s wonderfully scandalous rock

Lily Donaldson makes her outfits come alive in the spread “Fringe Festival” shot by Nick Knight for Vogue UK. I love that everything in the photos seems to be in motion; her dresses, hair and limbs are flying around in midair giving the illusion of extreme movement. My favorite dresses
