The Twitterverse is abuzz over National Cleavage Day, which it turns out, is actually a thing. A thing sponsored by Wonderbra. The boob-supporter conducted a survey of a thousand women to find out who had the best cleavage with the winner having the prestigious honor of being inducted into the Wonderbra Cleavage Hall of Fame — also a thing. So who did women choose as the rack of ages?

While, there was definitely a dearth of sexiness on the fall 2012 runway, these dapper — and sometimes disrobed — gents still managed to heat things up.

Walking into the Park Ave Armory last night, one couldn’t help but notice the two 25-foot tall screens, one projecting a male and the other a female, perpetually walking in silhouette. The image alone was striking but guests of W Magazine and acclaimed photographer Sølve Sundsbo hadn’t seen anything yet. The unknown male and female were revealed to be none other than Calvin Klein darlings David Agbodji and Lara Stone, who through the course of Sundsbo’s “Ever Changing Face of Beauty” blurred the lines of race, gender, culture and even species through a series of digital morphs. Lara’s and David’s body parts were mixed and matched while fashion by stylist Marie Chaix beautifully augmented the surrealistic vibe of the piece. The result was a visually-stunning exploration of the many facets — and faces — of beauty and a true highlight of an otherwise lackluster Fashion Week.

Clad in a clingy Calvin Klein, Lara Stone looked every inch the supermodel as I sat down — flustered and fresh off the subway — to interview her and photographer Alex Prager about their collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. During our little chat in the swanky Mercedes-Benz Star Lounge, I tried to explain the concept of a spirit animal — I muttered something about Native American mythology as the concept isn’t particularly clear to me either — but I feared that it would be lost somewhere in translation. After a few more explanations, we finally got around to the heart of the question – ”Who is your celebrity spirit animal?” As soon as she said the name, I realized the answer was fairly clear.

As expected, Calvin Klein trots out Lara Stone once again for its spring 2012 Jeans campaign. And as expected, Lara trots out her impressive rack, going topless alongside newcomer Matthew Terry in the steamy ads shot in St. Barts by leading lensmen Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Meanwhile, Terry also stripped down with fellow professional hunks Myles Crosby, Arran Sly and Chris Garavaglia for Calvin Klein Underwear with the legendary Steven Klein capturing the copious flesh on display in Joshua Tree. If all the six packs don’t strike your fancy, the brilliant hues surely will.

How do we measure the rankings of the world’s Top Models? By number of campaigns and editorials? By paycheck? By how gorgeous they are? What with disputes on brand and magazine prestige, and definitions of beauty, we’ll let the internet be the eye of the beholder. PeekScore measured the digital imprints of top models and determined who is has the biggest web presence, i.e. most written about, followed and searched. Some of these results may surprise you. Others, like the strong presence of Victoria’s Secret Angels, may not. See who reigns supreme, as voted on by every single one of us, without our knowledge. Who is number one? Heidi Klum? Kate Moss? Gisele Bündchen? Lara Stone?

A beautiful woman stands alone in the desert, suitcases in hand. Yet in this 21st century update on classic Film Noir, the blonde is her own getaway driver, outpacing a tornado in a sleek SL Roadster by Mercedes-Benz. That beautiful woman is none other than Lara Stone wearing none other than Calvin Klein for Mercedes-Benz’s latest 2012 fashion collaboration, shot by Alex Prager. Our friends at Benz stopped by Ms. Stone’s dressing room for a Q&A about working with Prager, her personal style and advice for young girls starting a career in the modeling industry. Video interview after the jump.
