Oy-vey! Galliano’s Back, Lindsay Makes Dirty LOVE to Terry & Beyonce’s Boobylicious

- David Beckham says he “didn’t know where to look” when the ad for his new bodywear collection at H&M aired during the Super Bowl. Funny, my eyes knew exactly where to zoom in. [Telegraph]

- David’s wife Victoria, however, knows exactly what she’s doing on the cover of i-D. [Telegraph]

- John Galliano resurfaced recently to fete the birthday of a close friend. And not a single Jew was harmed — it’s called progress, people. [Page Six]

- Beyoncé‘s twins made their first public appearance last night. [The Cut]

- Lindsay Lohan + Terry Richardson = CLASS. The two professional provocateurs teamed up for an unsurprisingly trashy photoshoot for LOVE Magazine. [Highsnobiety]

- The gays may soon be able to marry in California again after a federal appeals court ruled Prop 8 unconstitutional. But there’s still time to appeal so don’t start registering at Bendel‘s yet, queens. [Huff Po]

- Speaking of a disenfranchised subset of society: models. They have rights too! They’re not sure what they are, but dammit, they have them. And now a non-profit group to represent them. [Racked]

- Michelle Williams took a break from snatching trophies to star in Band of Outsiders‘ latest campaign. [Paper]

- Miu Miu will debut a limited edition collection of 46 handbags during the major fashion weeks beginning with New York. Start coveting, kids. [Fashionista]

Fei Fei Sun’s Guide to Shanghai and Designers to Watch

Jessica Lapidos — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 15:00:19 +0000

About three years ago, Fei Fei Sun was just a gal about China, hangin’ with her boyfriend in Shanghai. Several Paris Fashion Week video viewings later, and she’s got the bug to wear it all; to be there in it. Fortunately her razor sharp jawline and chameleon abilities have allowed just that and she skyrocketed her to the fashion stratosphere.. Her first season out, she walked 30 shows without knowing a lick of English. Which I suppose proves the point that you can get by on just your good looks (and in this case, polite, intuitive silence and a fearsome smize). If you turn the tables and find yourself in Shanghai without knowing a damn word in Chinese, check what Fei Fei Sun advises you eat, see and shop in her city.

SHOE ENVY: Moonspoon Saloon x Buffalo Platform Sneaker

Amanda Gabriele — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 15:00:29 +0000

If Spice Girls collaborated on a collection for Moon Shoes, the components would look something like this. Built to reach another level, and that level may be another planet, Moonspoon Saloon decided to get it on with Buffalo and make these beautifully bizarre babies. Already featured in i-D, V and Dazed and Confused, you better slip into these platforms before their 15 minutes of fame runs out. Zigzags, crushed velvet and splattered paint are all your for the taking.

Nailed It: Sophy Robson

Amanda Gabriele — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 17:30:23 +0000

Over the next few weeks, we are going to look at eight incredible manicurists and their over-the-top art in a new feature called Nailed It. Today, let’s explore the incredible manicure designs of London-based artist Sophy Robson. Pulling inspiration from music, fashion and street art, Robson’s nails are some of the boldest we’ve seen. Her designs have even landed her a gig with beauty powerhouse Sephora to curate its Sephora by OPI nail art. Click through for a gallery of our favorite Robson designs.

“I take the ghetto ideas and make them mainstream,” Robson told WWD. All photos via Sophy Robson’s Tumblr So So Fly Nails.

Abbey in Wonderland: Kershaw Dreams Big for i-D

Amanda Gabriele — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 16:54:36 +0000

With a Twiggy-eyed wink in black and white, Abbey Lee Kershaw covers the “Dream Big” issue of i-D Magazine. Inside comes a vibe straight from Alice in Wonderland as Abbey complements her 60s swagger with larger-than-life accessories that could only be induced by an “Eat Me” pill. With Richard Bush behind the lens and Sarah Richardson behind the wardrobe, it’s one dream we’d like to step inside.

Carine Winks for i-D

Lester Brathwaite — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 14:23:42 +0000

Hardworking freelancer Carine Roitfeld covers i-D, shot by good friend…I guess, Terry Richardson.

Honestly, this post-Vogue Paris reinvention is seriously working for me. I’m openly obsessed with everything she’s doing…except those damn Chanel ads. Really a photobooth? Though I am hoping to eventually get on board. [Fashionista]

Kreayshawn’s Ovary Swaggin Slideshow

Samantha Lim — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 12:01:23 +0000

From adderall slinger to internet sensation to record deal rapper, new pop culture icon Kreayshawn further cements her image on the new cover of i-D magazine. Her ovary pumping swag (her words, not ours) is captured above via two toned hair, gold star emblazoned eyelashes, finger tattoos, and a triple toned leopard print manicure. All bad ass you say? We thinks a not. Her Debbie Harry haircut, ski slope wardrobe, and constant cat references (Gucci Gucci ends with a meow and refers to catnip, kitty cats, and kitty litter), however vile they may be, make us think that she’ll grow out of her rapper phase and turn into one crazy cat lady. Either way, we are having a love affair with her right now so…here’s a style slideshow!

I’m Ready for My Close-Up, Mr. Testino: The 10 Most Editorial Actresses

Lester Brathwaite — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 16:00:06 +0000

Anna Wintour has been credited/blamed/lauded/criticized for the current proliferation of celebrity-driven magazine covers of the past 15 years or so. Love it or hate it, a model has a better chance winning a Pulitzer than landing a U.S. Vogue cover — with a few notable exceptions. While stars are rightfully and contractually beautiful, however, not all of them can cut the couture mustard. Then there are those ladies who love the camera and the camera is kind of obsessed with them. Here, the 10 actresses who give the best editorial — and give models a run for their money — are given the countdown treatment.

Tilda givin’ a little twist in Another by Craig McDean.

1. Tilda Swinton

Lady Gaga Looks Creepy as a Lay Person in i-D Magazine

Amanda Gabriele — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 20:31:36 +0000

We were paging through the summer 2011 issue of i-D Magazine in the FashionIndie office this morning and came across Mother Monster in a spread titled “Summer Solstice.” Our conclusion? Lady Gaga looks weird doing normal things.

Sure we’ve all fallen asleep on the bus, gossiped on a cell phone and straight chilled in a lawn chair, but could this mean Lady Gaga is human after all?

Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fierce

Lester Brathwaite — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 16:28:35 +0000

Jourdan Dunn and Karlie Kloss, or Jourlie as they’re apparently known…somewhere, tag team a sexy photoshoot for i-D‘s “Exhibitionist Issue,” shot by Kayt Jones.

Edward Enninful‘s styling takes backseat to Jourlie’s (okay, it’s cute and I’m on board) lithe, lovely and leggy frames, but they reveal more than just their bodies in an interview with the mag.

Turns out Jourdan wants to start a line of jeans and Karlie wants to ~~ruin her life~~ have five kids, all boys. How…sweet.

Look Be a Lady

Lester Brathwaite — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 13:55:24 +0000

Lady Gaga winks, hunches and uncovers for an editorial in i-D, styled by none other than Nicola Formichetti and lensed by Mariano Vivanco. The trio continue to generally shut shit down, creating arresting images, buzzworthy collections (Gags is wearing Mugler of course) and colossal dance-pop anthems. Theirs is a partnership that harkens back to the days of Yves Saint Laurent and Iman, or Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick or Keith Haring and Grace Jones: artist and muse becoming inseparable in the public conscious and almost interchangeable in their roles. For Mariano, Nicola and Stephanie Germanotta, the whole is greater than sum of its parts.

Anja Rubik is virtually unrecognizable on the cover of i-D’s “Exhibitionist Issue.” Topless, brunetted and nose-ringed, Rubik was shot by Emma Summerton for one of the issue’s four covers featuring three other gals giving the traditional wink.

SNEAK PEAK Jeneil Williams for I-D Magazine, Summer Issue

Saynt — Thu, 13 May 2010 15:13:16 +0000

Jeneil Williams is so amazingly hot in the latest issue of I-D Magazine. She’s not a model who instantly comes to mind when thinking of girls with a bit more color, but if she keeps giving us shoots like this, it’s only a matter of time before everyone is whispering her name in the industry. Love it.

i-D Magazine never seems to disappoint on the editorial end of the spectrum, and bringing us another great spread is photographer Daniel Jackson and “Break the Spell” for i-D’s Winter 2009 issue. From spikes to bows and tassels to ruffles, this spread covers nearly every texture in an inviting, yet gothic manner.

It’s not like model Tanya Dziahileva needs any help being gorgeous, but the photographic eye of Hans Feurer sure doesn’t hurt! Consider i-D Magazine’s spread “One Day I’ll Ride A Big White Horse And Wear A Gown And Crowns Of Course” more of a beauty spread than a fashion spread, but regardless, it’s awesome!

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.

SPREAD UM: “Suvi In Studs” i-D Magazine June 2009

Kirby Marzec — Fri, 22 May 2009 14:55:34 +0000

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!

FASHION PORN: Everywhere Kiss Me

Kirby Marzec — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 20:38:04 +0000

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!

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 Deyn for i-D Magazine

Saynt — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 15:49:04 +0000

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….
