I don’t think the spread’s name is terribly fitting, but I love the expired film look of Ellen Rogers’ spread for i-D’s December 2009 issue!

This gorgeous group pulls the signature i-D winky face, highlighting their colorful 80’s make-up. Similar to the looks from our For The Love of Marc Party, no?

Oh i-D, what have you done!? Not only does model Anna Gushina look like a goofy blow-up doll, I’m not at all impressed by the skimpy, band-o fashions featured in the spread. Really, what’s with this half-boob action going on? i-D might be trying to start a new trend, but really, all they’ve done is added to the list of editorial failures.

Thanks IMG Models Blog!

With the summer sun already bringing about those dripping sweat subway mornings, layering clothes is out of the question. However, if you’re a true New Yorker, the lack of layers probably has you feeling somewhat naked as you trek about town in a mere tank-top and shorts. i-D Magazine’s June 2009 spread, shot by David Vasiljevic, shows you exactly how to keep your intricate, layered edge, even during the summer heat. “Suvi In Studs,” despite it’s enviable Alexander Wang leather/denim pants and jacket, is all about the layered chains, studs and spikes. This editorial makes the layereing of jewelry a tride and true statement that the layered look can still reign true, spicing up even the simplest of outfits…afterall, look how awesome the chain and thread scarf looks against a bare body.

Thanks Fashionising!

Not sure who this model is, but love the aesthetic Vanina Sorrenti used for this spread, the double exposure and colors are beautiful, just wish teh model wasn’t so anorexic looking!

Paul Wetherell’s shots of Spanish siren Marina Peres are completely moody little bits of this new face. They turn up in i-D magazine and are pretty amazing. Check them out.

The i-D Magazine April 2009 spread, “Everywhere Kiss Me,”  looks more like a 1980s ‘Girls Gone Wild’ still shot than a fashion editorial. Shot by photographer Katja Rahlwes, model Malgosia Bela bears all, slaps on the seduction and rocks the hooker heels for i-D. The style is rather simple, a whole lot of denim a and whole lot of skin. To be honest, I’d completely skip over this editorial while reading the magazine. What’s another pair of boobs? What’s another blue-jean jacket? What’s another sultry bed pose? Yawn. 

Thanks Fashion Copious!

The March issue of i-D magazine features 12 different covers,  19 year old Daisy Lowe is on one. The daughter of Gavin Rossdale apparently doesn’t have an issue with nudity.

I believe Alek Wek can do no wrong, and this spread is no different. The supermodel is transformed into an African queen for the latest issue of I-D magazine. Wek shows off the ethnic fashion of the season better than anyone else could. I absolutely love her shoes in this photo; finding out where to buy them would put my wallet in grave danger.

We’ve got an exclusive, behind the scenes look at i-D mags recent cover shoot featuring some of Britain’s top new faces and talents. Yeah, we just j’d in our p’s just thinking about it.

Lara Stone took a minute to share with a videographer why she thinks she’s sexy. I think it’s the gap between her teeth. Or maybe her cold, evil stare. Either way check out the video below from a shoot she did for i-D magazine.

Thanks to Fashionista.com for pointing it out.

Lara Stone in the November issue of i-D, shot by Alasdair McLellan, featuring the late Randy Johnston

October 11th was a tragic day for Ford Models and the family and friends of Randy Johnston. The 20 year old model passed away on Saturday of unknown causes. The half German, half English model was discovered by Ford Models through a mailed in photograph. Johnston was the featured model of the 2007 Dior Homme campaign and will appear in November’s i-D Magazine with Lara Stone. Ford Models had this to say about their recent loss:

“Randy Johnston, a beautiful, sweet, and loving young man. There are no words to express how much he will be missed.”

Agyness Overload?

i-D’s May issue will feature not one, not two, not thirty (oh, to high) but FIVE Agyness Deyn covers!!!  It may be a bit of Agyness Overload, which means any day now, remaining true to its cannibalistic nature, the media that has so kindly raised her to the status of “IT Girl” will ceremoniously break her down and leave her rotting size zero carcass on the side of some runway in Milan.  Hell, if we did it to Britney and Kate Moss we’ll do it to this new face in a heartbeat.

The addition features editorials lensed by Terry Richardson (whose article in the recent issue of GQ is by far the best thing that magazine has produced in five years) and Nick Knight, in addition Deyn pens a few notes down with an essay on Vivienne Westwood. Plus, her mom and boyfriend, [insert forgettable guitarist here], get in on the Aggy gravy train by writing  a few pieces on the model.

Can’t wait to ignore this issue of i-D as I pick up an issue of Us Weekly?  Oh no, it’s started….
