I’m not the biggest Jethro Cave fan, but I must admit, the grungy male model rocks it in Alessandro Dal Buoni’s most recent spread for Rolling Stone Italia’s November 2009 issue. “The Good Son” has Cave dressed to the nines in a variety of embellished garb…love it!

Photographed by Sven-Anton Svensson, Jethro Cave is the face of Pudel’s Spring 2010 collection.

Barneys CO-OP’s new mailer, one of “The Books” for Fall 2009 is now available on The Fashionisto. Appearances include Marc Jacobs, Filson, Surface To Air, and A.P.C. and starring William Eustace, Tyler Riggs, Lenz von Johnston and Jethro Cave.

I’m always surprised at how busy and nutty-acting everyone gets during Fashion Week prep. Everyone is in a huff. I’ve seen a lot of models in Soho, they’re almost all in huffs. Except for the “It” models, you know like Ash and Jethro. I bet they’re never in anything like a huff, they’re only in magazines. Is Cole Mohr still “It”?

Anyway, I got invited to the model casting for Duckie Brown. It made me feel a little special, but whenever I told anyone they sort of laughed. Everyone thought I was trying out to be a model, I wasn’t. Duckie wanted me there to cast models, and pretend to DJ. I really like pretending.

It was self-defeating though. The casting, I mean.  I was the short, pasty, black-clad kid with grandma glasses and bad hair. Everyone around me was 6 foot tall, healthy, fit, and beautiful. It was awful, and amazing. Amazing because they were changing and naked and trying on great clothes.

Two boys I party with came on a go-see. Is that an official term? Go-see? Or did Tyra make that up for America’s Next Top Model? But, right, Jace and Harvey came on a go-see. It was nice seeing them out and about during the day. And I think both of them were cast, because they have amazing walks and are so handsome.

Oh. Did anyone see that Craiglist missed connection from Tuesday? A friend posted it to my Facebook. I think someone I know, a boy, gave a man a blowjob at the Box while his girlfriend watched. It all happened on the balcony, I mean, I must have been a few feet away. Was it you? Tell me the truth. I need the scoop.

I think it’s a good nightlife when things like this can still happen. It reminds me of Studio 54.

It’s so sad that the Ruff Club is ending. I don’t know what else to say. It’s the end of an era, or something. There’s a rumor that Peaches Geldof and Jethro Cave will be there. That they’re going to DJ. I love Nick Cave, and his son Jethro is amazing. I didn’t know that Peaches is still around. Can I have her job? What is her job?

P.S.

I forgot to mention I met Christopher Sauve and Julia Frakes yesterday while creeping Soho with Alex. Chris was the nicest, like so pleasant. Julia was a button, but I kind of think I squeezed her hand too hard. Alex thought her pants were a great Beacon’s find, but of course they were Erin Wasson. Nicollette said Julia was a downtown luminary.

I guess she must be if she’s curating a collection at Screaming Mimi’s for Fashion’s Night Out. I’m jealous, wish I was curating a collection.

Did you know that even the Disney Channel changes its New York programming before and during Fashion Week? I told you, nutty-acting. Everyone.

I’m going to be honest, I wasn’t really getting my usual excited feeling about Fashion Week until I saw this flyer in my inbox today (which nearly resulted in me passing out in pure excitement at my desk)! This is going to be THE party to be at for Fashion Week! For more details check out the RUFF CLUB website, and prepare to lose your minds on the 11th.

Paul Smith is helping to cure nostalgia with his very late 80’s/ early 90’s, Wes Anderson film inspired Fall 2009 Jeans collection. Featuring male models Ash Stymest, Jethro Cave and Stuart Jones, Paul Smith Jeans Fall 2009 is obviously for the flashier gentleman who isn’t afraid of a little fun and color. While I can live without men in neons and acid-wash denim, It sure is nice to see some tight jeans paired with bulky knits and duck-printed button-ups!

Via The Fashionisto.

We’ve composed a list of the twenty five most stylish people we know under twenty five (well, a couple are “25″). Influences, creatives, or just plain crazy people, here’s Fashion Indie’s take on who to know, and who we wish we were as stylish as:

Celebrities-

Rihanna- Ri’s been really stepping it up lately. She’s got a wide range of looks, and is starting to find a world of her own when it comes to her style.

Lady Gaga- Everyone knows she’s crazy. Lady Gaga is definitely changing the views of fashion right now

Taylor Momsen- Are you surprised? You know we love her.

Emma Watson- The young HP actress is growing up! And looking hot at every event, if we do say so ourselves.

The Olsen Twins- They’ve been in the fashion eye for awhile now, and now that they’ve got some of their own lines, they always look awesome.

Zoe Kravitz- Lenny’s daughter! This teen has been making a lot of appearances lately, and looks good!

–

Models-

Chanel Iman- Our favorite model to follow on Twitter. Chanel is so adorable, and has really awesome style (check out those boots!)

Tallulah Morton- She’s all over the Cobra Snake (in a Cory Kennedy way), and always looking fly.

Cole Mohr- This is for you Kirby.  Cole brought boyish and grunge to the fashion forefront, for models anyway. Plus he’s incredibly handsome, which definitely isn’t a bad thing.

Ethan James- Ethan is being seen more and more on the fashion scene (Milan fashion week, H & M, tons of editorial spreads), and has a similar look to Cole. I actually went to high school with this Ford model, and he’s been the most stylish guy I know since he was 15.

Jethro Cave- Pioneered the half-shaved head. LOVE those hanger tattoos.

–

Fashion Personalities and Party People-

Alexa Chung- Whether she’s dressed to kill or wearing denim cutoffs, Alexa Chung is always on top of her game.

Chloe Sevigny- Great designer, great style icon. I’m in love with her buckle booties, which she is seen wearing a lot, paired with skinny pants or cute dresses. Definitely a hipster style icon.  We know she isn’t exactly under 25, but she’s been around for so long as a stylish designer to know, and like our moms, is one of those women that turn 25 every year for the rest of their lives.

Peaches Geldof- This social always looks gorgeous (as do all the Geldofs), for events or on the street with her fake fiance.

Aaron Kolfage- Fashion Indie’s favorite party host and dear friend, Aaron always looks fierce on Friday nights at Ruff Club. He dresses with such creativity, I haven’t seen anything like it anywhere else. This weekend, Aaron was wearing a giant tulle bowtie with a brooch in the middle, and I was mad jealous. Aaron gives us Midwesterners hope for being incredibly stylish, he’s from Michigan!

Fashion Bloggers-

Pelayo of Kate Loves Me – This guy, and his girlfriend, both have killer style. He wears some of the craziest things I’ve ever seen (including Louis Vuitton mesh tights!), and has perfectly coiffed hair at all times.

Lovisa The Intern- Lovisa Drever is all over Lookbook.nu, but I know her from Waffles + Falafels (who even briefly carried a shirt with her photo on it). She’s got a killer sense of style and can pull anything off, plus adds to the crazy personalities of W + F, who are some of my favorite people.

Six Six Sick Girls- These hosts and bloggers DIY matching outfits for their events, which include everything from red wigs to elbow gloves. They not only have a crazy (and matching) sense of DIY style, they also post some (literally) sick stuff on their blog.

Kirby Marzec- Fashion Indie’s own managing editor, Kirby not only knows everything about every designer, and what’s going to be hot next season, but she also isn’t afraid to pull it off. Whether it’s drop (to the knee) crotch pants, DIY ripped tees, or metal vests, you can be assured that Kirby will wear it, and she’ll wear it damn well.

Jazzi McG- We had a half hour long talk the other day about how much we love Jazzi’s blog, and her style.  A queen of DIYing and always dressed perfectly for the occasion, she’s definitely one to watch.

Tavi of Style Rookie-  Tavi is no rookie, maybe in the way that ‘Rookie of the Year’ becomes a professional baseball player, Tavi dresses better than some veterans of fashion.

Camille of Childhood Flames- Another not-even-legal fashion blogger showing that you don’t have to have a career to be fashionable, this sixteen year old is a pro at mixing designer goods with things we can afford, and is also taking advantage of the DIY world.

Lucas Logan- This 18-year-old from LA is all over the internet, model/blogger (Stylish Kids In Riot)/designer, Lucas is California’s newest ‘It’ Kid, braces and all.

–

Musicians-

Uffie- I mean look at her, in.sane.

The Veronicas- I’ve followed The Veronicas since I was in high school, and their style has definitely evolved into rocker chic. They always look good separately, and even better together, on stage or off, and aren’t afraid to take risks.

This list was too big for just ten. Here’s 20 celebrity hairstyles that just bother us.

1. Kate Goesslin- I’m not really sure what she’s thinking with that little spike in the back. I mean, I know that it’s “her thing” but…why would you want that to be your thing?

2. Cassie/Carmen Electra/Amber Rose/Alice Dellal- Shaved heads on girls = not good, unless you’re a punk, which clearly, none of these girls are.

3. Billy Ray Cyrus- This is better than the Achey Breaky mullet, but the whole surfer/highlights thing is trying a little too hard for a 47-year-old dad.

4. Donald Trump- I don’t even know what is going on. How does he even get his hair like that?

5. Amy Winehouse- The beehive was cool for like, a day, but as soon as Wino started falling apart, so did her hive.

6. Megan Fox at the MTV awards- I don’t even need to talk about this…this makes her head look so oddly shaped, it makes me laugh.

7. Agyness Deyn- Sometimes I really like Aggy’s hair, sometimes I don’t. This looks a little Warhol, back to the drawing board for this mop-top

8. Carrot Top- I know it’s natural, but this is a little too carrot-y and disheveled.  And wtf is up with his eyebrows?

9. Celebrity sons that look like daughters- Cindy Crawford’s son is literally the most beautiful kid I’ve ever seen, but his hair makes him look like a girl. Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker’s sons also look like they could be daughters. Haircuts, please.

10. Betsey Johnson- I love her designs, but have always hated her hair. 

11. Robert Pattinson- Not my choice, I love him and his crazy hair, but I do agree, it’s a little too talked about.

12. Rihanna- Time for a new hairstyle, please. I still like it, I always liked it, but it’s getting old.

13. Victoria Beckham- She pioneered the bob, but that was years ago.

14. Katie Holmes- Same story as the two above. Moving on.

15. Zac Efron- The surf look is a little too grown out for Zefron, just a little bit shorter, please.

16. Brett Michaels- I’m not sure what bothers me more, the fact that Brett Michael’s lips look like a woman, or that I can’t wear a headband or scarf around my head without being called Brett Michaels.

17. Jethro Cave- Just a little too over the top. Corey, please don’t do this with your hair

18. Katy Perry- I loved Katy Perry’s hair long and curled. Grow it back out!

19. Adam Lambert- I know he’s trying to be the epitome of a ‘rock star,’ but scene kid hair is very 2006.  He probably takes longer to straighten and tease his hair than I do to shower and put on a full face of makeup.

20. J.Lo- Everyone’s saying it’s a wig, what do you think?

I’m prepared for the hate comments. Anyone you think we missed?

One of my favorite people in fashion and male models Jethro Cave sat down with Ponystep to give quite possible the most boring and plain interview I have ever read. Despite being boring as hell I must say the guy is brilliant.

Jethro Cave shot by Nicole Formichetti totally worth 30 seconds of your attention.

One of my top five favorite designers Henry Holland produced another knock out collection for London’s Fashion Week this year. His label House Of Holland has a collection to fall in love with in late 2009. With a star studded runway that included the infamous Aggy Deyn, Jethro Cave and Ash Stymest, House Of Holland put on a somewhat more conservative show this year (for House Of Holland of course). Dulled down or not, the collection is still amazing and innovative. I love everything offered, and I think this a collection that will be seen in the streets way more than some of the previous. Two thumbs up from me!

Man talk about being caught in a pickle! I can’t for the life me decide whether I like this collection or not. I will start off by saying that I’m excited to see my two favorite male models finally hitting the runway (Jethro Cave and Ash Stymest), but there are certain things about this collection that I just don’t love. I respect the all grey look. It’s a bit risky, and I thought that was I didn’t like, but that isn’t quite it. The styling and the cuts look great, I think it’s the random awkward headgear that I’m not wild about. It seems like an unnecessary random piece to add to an otherwise great collection.

Like an actress who is required to gain weight for an upcoming movie role, Natalie Portman shaved her head back in 2005 for her leading role in V for Vendetta. Yes, the do actually looked cute on Portman, but if any no-name on the street were to shave her head, people would think she pulled a Britney Spears or just got off of chemo therapy. Recently, trends have decided that shaving is no longer just for the boys! Trendsetters everywhere have whipped out the shears and shaved only certain areas of their head. Whether it be the sides/back to create an edgy mushroom shape or a section by the hair part (Jethro Cave-esque), shaving has become the thing to do for girls who want to turn heads!  But be careful…you don’t want to end up looking like this. 

Thanks Pipeline! 

My favorite fella in fashion (sorry Daniel Saynt) Jethro Cave recently met up with photographer Heidi Slimane and stylist Nicola Formichetti for a little go at a few snapshots. The results are amazing. The fresh face in men’s fashion has been spotted all over the runway in the past couple days, including Paul Smith and Gareth Pugh.
