Quote of the Day: Michael Kors on Models
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
“Models, by nature, are not supposed to look like you and me. They are exemplary. They have bone structure and height and lengths of leg that normal people don’t have. But you want that to be based on genes, and if they’re adults, you want that to be based on adults who take care of themselves… I think if you send out an army of robotic 14-year-old children dressed up in their mom’s clothes, I think the reality is that it’s a turnoff, unless you are in fact a robotic 14-year-old.”

Items Du Jour: Jimmy Choo Makes Sneakers, Christina Gets Sexier, and Posh Poses With a Duck
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors,
- Victoria Beckham scores an interesting editorial in German Vogue, where she looks flawless (as usual) against trashy back drops and a playground duck. Yes, a duck.
- Ever wonder what happened to Christina Aguilera? She says that she’s more comfortable in her skin, now that she’s become a mom. She even says that she’s more sexual. How is that even possible after creating a music video like “Dirrty”?
- Kristen Stewart lands the cover for the current issue of Flaunt magazine, and holy smokes is she hot! She’s everywhere and I love it!
- Fashion designer Mark Fast seems to have made quite the impression with his peers—Calvin Klein is reportedly going to discontinue the use of size 0 models. It also could be the allure of Lara Stone; Calvin Klein creative director Francisco Costa is rumored to have picked her to front several of the campaigns.
- Jimmy Choo is set to release a line of sneakers next month, but early previews of the shoes aren’t impressing anyone. Starting price is at $600!
Lauren Conrad Keeps it Simple
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News,
Lauren Conrad keeps her skincare routine simple. The reality TV star - who has her own range of clothes for Kohl’s - says she has now learned not to use too many products on her face and feels much better for it.
“I used to use a ton of stuff. I’ve been going to Kate Somerville for a while now, and through facials and treatments they’ve weaned down my skincare regimen, which is nice. Now at night, I just use a mild face wash and an oil-free moisturizer.”
Lauren is currently creating her next collection for Kohl’s and loves being involved in the process.

Heidi Klum Experiments With Hair
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Hairstyles, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Former Victoria’s Secret model Heidi Klum cut her hair because she was “bored.”
The German supermodel admits she loves experimenting with her locks and is delighted with her new ash-blonde bob.
“I got bored as we all do once in a while as girls. Whenever I get bored I change it. I grow it then cut it, grow it then cut it. For some people they never change it and it works for them but for me I get bored.”
The 36-year-old beauty - who raises four children with her singer husband Seal - showed off her new look on TV talk show The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, where she also gave the host a new style, spraying his hair black. “You have hair, not like my husband. You can actually do something with it.”
However, the presenter was unimpressed with the Project Runway host’s efforts. Wiping his face with a towel, he complained, “There’s black stuff dripping down my face.” But Heidi defended her efforts, saying, “I think I did a terribly good job - brings out the eyes.”
Kate Moss and Her Testino Book
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorials, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Mario Testino and Kate Moss are producing a book together.
The limited-edition photographic collection - entitled Kate Moss by Mario Testino - will be released this summer by publishers Tachen and will be limited to just 1,500 signed copies. The 128-page boxed hardcover book will retail for around $475.
Kate - who has a seven-year-old daughter Lila Grace with ex-boyfriend Jefferson Hack - recently posed nude for her current beau, The Kills rocker Jamie Hince. The 36-year-old supermodel stripped off for a series of sexy black and white images - where she is wearing nothing but a German Kaiser helmet - taken by the musician.
“Kate is very proud of them and is considering whether to exhibit them or not.”
While the British catwalk beauty makes up her mind about whether or not to display the photographs, they are being looked after by her friend Rose Ferguson and her husband Jake Chapman. While Kate is thinking about showing off her pictures, an exhibition dedicated to her career was recently cancelled.

Grace Jones Criticizes Gaga For Copying Her Style
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Lady Gaga has been accused of copying Grace Jones’ style.
The “Poker Face” hitmaker approached the veteran singer for a collaboration, but the former model turned her down because she is not a fan of the eccentric star.
Grace revealed, “I really don’t think of Lady Gaga at all. I go about my business. Well, you know, I’ve seen some things she’s worn that I’ve worn, and that does kind of p**s me off. Is she talented? I wouldn’t go to see her. Yes, she did ask to work with me, but I said no. I’d just prefer to work with someone who is more original and someone who is not copying me, actually.”
Despite her advancing years, the 61-year-old star still has a toned figure and admits her muscular frame has always set her apart from other women: “When I started modeling, I’d raise my arms and it was all muscle and all the other models had nothing. Really, everybody thought I was a man. I don’t have to do much to have muscles. It’s just genetic.”
Kim Kardashian Bares All For Bazaar
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Harper's Bazaar is now resorting to naked celebrities to sell its pages. Reality star Kim Kardashian bares all for the fashion magazine, which claims that the published photos have not been edited. "The message is embrace your curves and who you are..." says Kardashian of her public nudity. Judging by how gorgeous she and Britney look without Photoshop, I'm starting to think that these type of ads aren't making the general public feel better about themselves. Kim wasn't the only celebrity baring it all for the camera.

Agyness Deyn Shaves Her Head
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Celebrities came out to play in the desert for the three-day music festival Coachella, including a newly-bald Agyness Deyn.
The model looks barely recognizable (perhaps this was the point?) with her new hairdo, yet prim in a pale pink halter dress. “Wearing pink as not to look like I’m a skin head thug! Tried to find a baby stick on bow but unsuccessful,” she posted on her Twitter.
Can she pull this look off as well as Natalie Portman? Better?
(FYI - You can also follow Chic Dish on Twitter.)

Ellen DeGeneres’ Vegan Figure
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Ellen DeGeneres credits her figure to her vegan diet.
The 52-year-old television presenter admits her youthful looks and toned physique are thanks to her long-time decision to not eat meat and avoid sugar.
“No cake, no cookies, no candy. No animals, no diary, nothing processed; a lot of soup, veggies, rice, beans, legumes. I want to be on my toes; I want to have energy. And as much as the diet seems like a sacrifice, it’s helping me.”
Ellen - who is the face of cosmetic firm CoverGirl - also says her figure comes thanks to an extreme version of yoga. She told Shape, “I first started doing power yoga in Los Angeles, which really makes no sense. It’s the opposite of what it should be. Yoga should calm down you.”
However, Ellen admits she has a tough time balancing her busy career and a healthy lifestyle: “It’s hard. But you have to make time to take care of yourself.” Although she is a fan of exercise, she has previously joked about the vibrating muscle workout trainer Shake Weight. She said, “I was playing with it yesterday. And I have to say it really works. This is working out muscles I have never worked out in my whole life.”
Britney Spears Releases Unedited Candies Ads
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News, Rumors, Girls, Women, Footwear,
Unlike a certain someone in denial, the princess of pop knows that she’s got some flaws and isn’t afraid to share them with the world.
Following supermodel Claudia Schiffer‘s footsteps, Britney Spears prompted footwear designer Candies to release the unedited version of her latest ad campaign. In the images, Spears’s waist, thighs, and bottom have all been trimmed down, in addition to smoothing her skin and removing cellulite.
The only problem is… she still looks great in the unedited images! Despite that, this is a great move for her—hopefully this trend will now continue to ripple in the fashion industry.
