The 80’s inspiration here is pretty obvious: incase the title or the teased blonde hair with an extreme side part didn’t clue you in photos of Deborah Harry herself litter the streets that Raquel Zimmermann is so chicly stomping down. I love how Vogue Paris September issue is just one big costume party.

Raquel Zimmermann got in touch with both her masculine and feminine sides for Fall 2009’s Jean Paul Gaultier campaign. That is some genius photoshopping.

Thanks Fashionologie!

Raquel Zimmerman successfully plays both gender rolls in these Jean Paul Gaultier Fall ads. Raquel has always been a bit androgynous looking with her sharp cheekbones and pointed nose but this short haircut and masculine styling takes the look to the extreme. I’m loving the masculine/feminine dichotomy in these ads. This is proof of a versatile model and a versatile collection.

Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are ready to release their next hit fragrance. With their debut perfume Flowerbomb, released in 2004, the design duo felt they were read for Eau Mega.Viktor and Rolf were going for something fresh, but they wanted to stay away from sporty and lean more toward feminine; hence the name Eau for fresh, and Mega for that glamorous touch.

The fragrance, which is expected to hit stores this October, features an ad campaign lead by Rachel Zimmermann. Since Flowerbomb is still flying of the shelves in stores, we’re expecting Eau Mega to do just as well.

Here’s your first look at Raquel Zimmermann’s new blond look. She joins the rank of Daul Kim and Iekeliene Strange in becoming a platinum blond.

“I feel like a different person,” she said last night at the DNA Met kickoff cocktail party. “All the Vogue girls had a shoot for the magazine on Sunday,” said Raquel, “and all we could talk about was what we’re wearing, how we’ll wear our hair, and what time to arrive.”  Wonder if the goldie locks made it into the conversation.

V Magazine’s swimsuit issue is really the only thing I care about this week. Beautiful models, it tiny little swimwear equals more than enough joy for all of us. “We chose the sexiest bodies in the world and those that had a special connection to the Testino world; a lot of the guys and girls photographed grew up with V readers over the years.” Check out who made the cut below.

There is a reason this woman is number one on Model.com’s list of top 50 models. It’s cause she fucking rules.

Sidenote, her eyebrows are highly covetable. I totally plan to friend them on Facebook.

The May 2009 issue of Vogue is the Steven Meisel-shot “Model Issue,” and features a pull-out cover with “The Faces of the Moment.” (Is it just me, or is Natalia Vodianova having the longest moment ever?!)

It’s great, of course, to see models on a US cover (especially since not one of them is American!) but so many of these names are established already.  

The cover features Liya Kebede, Natalia Vodianova, Anna Jagodzinska, Isabeli Fontana, Lara Stone, Jourdan Dunn, Raquel Zimmermann, Caroline Trentini and Natasha Poly.

You can never go wrong with black and white. This simple seamless backdrop brings all the attention to the intricate designs of the dresses and jutting collarbones of the models, Vanderperre did a great job with ‘Venus Envy.’

This editorial shoot for V Magazine has a creepy quality, with a few mascara-running shots worthy of a horror film, but nonetheless, the washed out skin tones and contrasting black and white dresses bring together fantasy dreams and nightmares.

We’ve been bringing you all the initial leaks of the Marc Jacobs S/S 2009 ad campaign (featuring Raquel Zimmermann shot by Juergen Teller). Now the full set of ads is out!

Enjoy! It’s snowing in DC right now, which I love. But I also love these very springy ads!

Juergen Teller shot Raquel Zimmermann for the Marc Jacobs S/S 2009 ad campaign.

It’s definitely different from what we’ve seen the past couple seasons, and definitely aware of the season.

First of all. Raquel is practically unrecognizable from this angle. And there’s nothing “shocking” about the image. It’s a sort of “Alice in Wonderland” weirdness, but beautiful at the same time.

The Good:

Kate Bosworth and of course Karl Largerfeld

As much as I don't like her Sarah Jesssica Parker looked pretty good for once (not really feeling the sweater shawl though).

Raquel Zimmermann looks amazing!

The Bad:

Would it kill Agyness to dress nicely for once? She looks like a pirate, with stupid pirate hair!

Fabiola Beracasa failed to impress with the random blue biked gloves, and less than impressive belt. Good try though.

Eve had the right color pallet, and she looked good for Eve, but still isn't quite there.

 The Ugly:

Oh no Katie Lee Joel this isn't prom.

Tallulah Harlech needs to learn how to use accessories, and how to dress for a Chanel event.

Zaha Hadid is the architect for this whole project, and this is her outfit. Maybe she should have pulled a Martin Margiela and stayed incognito.

These weren’t the only good and bad outfits of the night, check out Zimbio for more pictures from the Chanel party.

This spread in Hercules magazine featuring Raquel Zimmermann has gotten me desiring a trip to Vegas, pronto.  I’ve never seen a showgirl style show before, but these photos make me think they might be magical.

Claudia Schiffer in Chanel

Although celebrities have hijacked hordes of fashion ads in recent years, Nineties-era supermodels — displaying formidable powers of longevity — have returned with a vengeance in many of fall’s fashion campaigns. Even Marc Jacobs is going back to using models for his Fall campaign.

That Linda Evangelista is starring in Prada, Naomi Campbell in Yves Saint Laurent, Claudia Schiffer in Chanel and Salvatore Ferragamo, Eva Herzigova in Louis Vuitton and Christy Turlington in Escada suggests these industry thoroughbreds remain as bankable and fascinating as Hollywood’s best beauties.

In fact, models in general — from newbies to veterans — dominate the lion’s share of European designer campaigns for next season, from Daria Werbowy in Christian Dior and Raquel Zimmerman in Fendi to Angela Lindvall in Jimmy Choo and Kate Moss in Stella McCartney. Notable exceptions to the celebrity-free ad zone include Charlotte Gainsbourg for Balenciaga and Vanessa Paradis for Miu Miu — while many American brands also are sticking to the celeb road, such as Calvin Klein’s multiple use of Eva Mendes.

Donatella Versace credits her late brother Gianni for fueling the supermodel phenomenon by sending all the top girls down the runway together in 1991.

“He made the models into celebrities as he understood that the more famous they became, the better it would be for him,” she said. “I don’t really make a distinction between working with celebrities and working with models as I think girls like Christy Turlington and, more recently, Kate Moss and Gisele [Bündchen] are celebrities, just as well-known as many actors and musicians.”
