- Lana del Rey was allegedly caught in the middle of a photoshoot for Versace. But seeing as there is nary a heel nor a cut-out present, I’m not, much like Lana del Rey’s music, buying it. [ONTD!]

- Abercrombie & Fitch employees are apparently forced to do push-ups and squats as punishment, which seems excessive since breathing in that tonic water they call cologne on a daily basis is punishment enough. [Huff Po]

- Damn you, Demi Moore, do you know what you hath wrought? Jessica Simpson is the latest, but certainly not the last, starlet to jump on the exposed and expecting bandwagon, as she bares her belly for the April issue of Elle. [Elle]

- Five designers imagined the wedding dress of another preggers “celeb” “mom,” Snooki, and as you can imagine, it’s an exercise in pure class. [R29]

- Marc Jacobs, eat your heart out because Karl Lagerfeld‘s got the market cornered on underage models. Hudson Kroenig, the adorable offspring of male supermodel Brad Kroenig, walked the Chanel show after Uncle Karl literally came calling. [NYT]

- Speaking of Ms. Jacobs, his name was once again brought up for the Dior job courtesy of Miu Miu‘s front row gossip. Just let it go, kids. [Vogue UK]

McArthur Joseph — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 18:52:33 +0000

From the looks of what Karl Lagerfeld created for Fall 2011 Fendi campaign perhaps there a chance that a family man lies inside the ~~soulless old man~~ fashion powerhouse.

Male Model Humpday: The 10 Greatest Male Supermodels

Lester Brathwaite — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 12:40:54 +0000

As a supplement to The 25 Greatest Supermodels of the Past 50 Years, Male Model Humpday celebrates the 10 gorgeous men who have risen to the top of the chiseled cheekbone heap to become that rarest of rare birds: the male supermodel. In reality, there only has been one true male supermodel and that’s Marcus Scheknenberg, who was discovered rollerskating on the beach by photographer Barry King in 1989 and has been the male model of the past 20-plus years. And most impressively, he survived a season on VH1′s hit (?) reality show, The Surreal Life and an affair with Pamela Anderson. If that’s not superhuman, I don’t know what is.

SPREAD UM: ‘Cara O Cuero’ for Harper’s Bazaar Spain

Saynt — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 04:35:06 +0000

This recent shoot for Harper’s Bazaar Spain reminds me of that one scene in Gia where Angelina Jolie makes out with that chick after her photoshoot. Actually chain-link fences always remind me of Jolie naked, but that’s just me. More photos after the jump.

Eniko Mihalik alongside Brad Kroenig in the October 2010 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Spain. The editorial ‘CARA O CUERO’ is photographed by Nico and styled by Juan Cebrián. It’s pure sexiness.

Karl Lagerfeld Takes On Coco Chanel, In Black and White

Remember the good old days when you could by a gallon of milk for a nickel, when horse-drawn carriages were still a better transportation choice than those god-fangled Model T’s, when you could slap your kids around and not get caught. No, well Karl Lagerfeld does.

He’s trying to bring back the silent movie. He’s creating a ten-minute movie based on Coco Chanel’s early years. Karl decided to skip out on booking real actors and decided to fill the movie with a couple of his own friends — muse Amanda Harlech and daughter Tallulah Ormsby-Gore as customer and model, Brad Kroenig as Chanel lover Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich, and bodyguard Sebastien Jondeau as a Russian general. Coco Chanel’s role was filled by Lithuanian model Edita Vilkeviciute.

I’m trying to feign interest in this 10 minute commercial slightly disguised as a movie, but I’m not supporting any designer films until Tom Ford gets his movie on the big screen. Plus, black and white silent films are just a bit to 1920′s for my millennial ass. I was more impressed when Chanel came out with an iPhone App.

Just Another Reason Why Karl Lagerfeld Likes Men

Rebecca Alexander — Tue, 20 May 2008 21:03:25 +0000

In Metamorphoses of an American, Karl Lagerfeld documents the physical and emotional development of Brad Kroenig, the world’s most sought-after male model, ranked number one at models.com at the time of this printing. Lagerfeld discovered Kroenig in 2003, making his first photographs of the young man in Biarritz; since then, he has diligently observed Kroenig through the photographic lens, month by month.

Since the time of this first Lagerfeld photo shoot, Kroenig has been featured in almost every major designer’s advertising campaign and/or fashion shows–including Lagerfeld, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Justin Cavalli, Perry Ellis and Fendi–and on almost every fashion magazine cover.

In this volume, through hundreds of photographs taken inside and outside the world of fashion, Lagerfeld explores Kroenig’s evolution from a young “All-American Boy” into a professional model, a man conscious of the subtleties of facial and corporeal expression. However, these photographs are not simply documentation; rather, Lagerfeld and Kroenig always work together to create a new persona, one which Kroenig projects without losing a sense of his own self.

Lagerfeld selects a spectrum of literary and cultural references for Kroenig to interpret: we see him as James Dean, as Rudolph Valentino, as a Gatsby-like figure from F. Scott Fitzgerald, and as Lieutenant Pinkerton from Puccini’s Madame Butterfly. Throughout these transformations, one never has the sense that Kroenig is merely acting; instead he presents newly discovered aspects of himself through the guises of other characters.
