Tesh shot Elena Melnik for this sleek editorial in the May 2009 issue of Vogue Germany.
Matador-inspired, yet still feminine, “Stil-Stark,” makes harem pants, absurdly high-waisted pants, and a single gold hoop earring, seem chic and doable, not costumey or pirate-like.

Hedi Slimane shot Luke Worrall for an exclusive editorial on hedislimane.com.
I feel a little weird because he’s only 19, but him mugging like a mini-Billy Idol in the above photo makes it OK.

Some images from the Elizabeth & James Fall 2009 lookbook have started to circulate.
Reportedly inspired by Peter Pan’s Lost Boys, the images feature both the women’s and the men’s collections and the Olsens’ footwear collaboration line with Steve Madden.
The collection is full of slouchy blazers, high hemlines, fitted pants, a furry jacket,
It’s hard to believe that L.A.M.B., Gwen Stefani’s line with her stylist, Andrea Lieberman, and designer Zaldy Gogo, is in its fifth year already.
But it’s still going strong, dressing Gwen for tours and music videos, and outfitting fans with clothes and accessories. And staying true to form, L.A.M.B’s Fall/Winter 2009/2010 is
Yesterday Amber Rose Twittered this photo — apparently Madonna got all up on her butt at last week’s Met gala. I just hope this isn’t the “Before” picture of anything that went on later that night.
And I probably don’t want to know where Jesus Luz is.
Super-cool Alexa Chung stars alongside Tennessee Thomas (of The Like) in the Holiday 2009 lookbook for LA-based label Wren.
After posing for Agent Provocateur last fall, Peaches Geldof can’t seem to keep her clothes on. British lingerie brand Ultimo has recruited her to be the face of Miss Ultimo’s Summer 2009 collection.
You probably know Ultimo for bringing us images of a very fit Mel B. last year. “Miss Ultimo” seems
Diane Kruger covers the June 2009 issue of Lucky in silk Oscar de la Renta and a Chanel necklace.
Kruger shares with readers some of her favorite style go-tos — like MAC lipstick, flats, Boy by Band of Outsiders, shopping at A.P.C., and, of course, Chanel.
The June 2009 feature editorial in W Magazine is a bold choice – not just for cover girl Ginnifer Goodwin, who just seems so clean and normal to me (I mean, she was in a campaign for The Gap!), but also for the magazine itself. (Previous cover stars this year include Madonna
Maciek Kobielski shot Diana Dondoe and Cartwright Lee for Rock & Republic’s Spring/Summer 2009 ad campaign.
As is usual for Rock & Republic, the images are sexy without being obscene – so there aren’t a lot of clothes. But the looks that are there are of course sleek and rock-inspired.
Luis Monteiro shot Jennifer Pugh for this beautiful spread in British magazine Tatler.
I’m not really familiar with Jennifer, and the concept is pretty simple — but she looks great in gothic-inspired styling set against a barren landscape and white buildings.
The ubiquitous Heidi Klum has been busy lately — not only making a new baby, but also shooting an entire issue of German Vogue. The June 2009 “Heidi by Vogue” issue features the supermodel in a handful of editorials, shot by Francesco Carrozzini, Paola Kudacki, and more.
We have a small sneak
“I would love to get an award for making people have more sex through my images. It would be a great award. Imagine the design of that award!”
-Carine Roitfeld, to ACNE Paper, S/S 2009.
“Basically, here’s my whole thing, Unless I’m dressed to the nines all the time, all the time in my life, from head to toe in the best possible gear, then I’m not happy at all.”
-Shia LaBeouf
Really? Shia, do you know what “dressed to the nines” means?! You look like you’re off to
We’ve finally been able to ID the gladiators that Mary-Kate’s been running around in for the last month! You can’t get them anywhere yet because they’re part of the forthcoming footwear collab between the Olsens’ Elizabeth & James label and Steve Madden.
The “Edge” gladiator sandal is one style from the
Alasdair McLellan shot Agyness Deyn for the Summer 2009 issue of Berlin-based magazine 032c. Love the cover layout, but why the censorship?
Michelle Alves is featured on a stand-out cover for May 2009. Steven Klein shot this for Vogue Brazil at a Madonna concert last year.
Usually backgrounds are just empty space or a beach setting, but the non-US mags really know how to switch it up. I love Michelle’s styling (simple jeans enhanced by
