FIRST LOOK: Alex Dunstan’s First Time

Kirby Marzec — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 16:35:03 +0000

Jump-starting another successful modeling career is Hedi Slimane and his series of photographs featuring 18-year-old Brit, Alex Dunstan. If you recall, Slimane practically catalyzed the careers of Cole Mohr, Georges Barnett, Josh Beech and Ash Stymest, so it isn’t too far-fetched to predict that Alex Dunstan is going to be the next big face in the male-model world. It’s nice to see some fresh blood in the mix, but Cole and Ash will always be near and dear to my heart! Oh, and is it just me, or does this kid look strangely like Olivier Theyskens?

Plus-Sizes Suffer A Big Minus

Kirby Marzec — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 02:50:29 +0000

Next to top name designers and department stores, plus-size clothing companies are among to hardest hit by the economic recession. Today, New York’s CBS aired a segment which pointed out that many stores are cutting back on the purchase of plus-size garments or eliminating them altogether, making shopping much harder and fashions sparse for plus-size shoppers. Blame it on the fact that plus-size clothes cost around 10% more to produce or the fact that demand isn’t as high, but plus-size women, as if it weren’t already hard enough to find well fitted, fashionable clothing, are going to have a hard time dressing themselves as the recession only gets worse.

So, what next? Plus-size women taking the recession friendly route of starving themselves until they fit into the more abundant, smaller sizes? The plus-size modeling industry will undoubtedly suffer, and models, like America’s Next Top Model Whitney Thompson, will soon enough find themselves in the unemployment line. Basically: chaos…like this:

Daughter of Style: Lou Doillon

French indie actress and model Lou Doillon has emerged as a fashion icon. Style runs in her veins. Afterall 60′s Hermes muse, Jane Birkin, is her mother. Doillon’s style is a paradox. She is chic yet funky, androgynous yet romantic, quirky yet classic and of course bohemian. Her signature top hat personifies her quirkiness,individuality and spunk.

She is genius because of the execution of her style. Doillon does not follow trends, which is why I always love seeing what she wears. She is a genuine risk taker. Lou Doillon is a true trendsetter who is here to stay.
