Kate Moss: Passion is Essential to Designers
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, Models,
The supermodel has been in the fashion business for over 20 years and having worked with most of the top designers in the world, she says a love for creating is hugely important along with the determination to succeed.
"A good designer has to have passion and imagination and determination because it is a tough business," she said.
Kate is the face of high street clothing store Mango and Colleen Sherin, Fashion Director at Saks 5th Avenue believes it is a match made in heaven. "Kate Moss is beautiful and the perfect face for Mango, it's such a great fit. She's an icon who has always supported young fashion talent like Mango does," she said, speaking at the Mango Fashion Awards at the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya in Barcelona.
"Mango is amazing because they support the young designers who will eventually be designing for huge companies in the future," Kate added.
Olivia Palermo Signed as New Face of Mango
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
From a supporting friend
actress on The City, Olivia Palermo is moving her career up to modeling status as the new face of Mango. The 24-year-old beauty will star alongside model boyfriend Johannes Heubl in the campaign, which she admits was initially embarrassing to shoot.
“At first, it was really embarrassing - but then I remembered it was just him and I could be normal - so then it was really fun.”
However, she is unsure if the Spanish brand - which is also fronted by Scarlett Johansson and Poppy Delevigne - will show the shoot internationally. “I don’t know about that but I’m really pleased to have done it.”
It is not yet clear if she will design her own range of clothes for the store as former models Penelope Cruz and Milla Jovovich have done. Earlier this month, Olivia confessed she has a whole host of ambitions in the fashion industry: “I want to act, model, try it all. Designing a collection will come in time.”
“I play around with different styles. I don’t think I can wear the clothes I wore when I was 20, now that I’m 24,” she explained.
Scarlett Johansson Knows That Beauty is Pain
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty,
Scarlett Johansson is willing to suffer for beauty.
The stunning actress - who is the face of Spanish fashion label Mango - knows looking good can take hard work but says it’s worth it in the end.
“When I was little my mum always said, ‘Pain for beauty.’ That made me realize that, although the process of getting ready for an event is tedious, in the end it’s worth investing the time to have the look you’re happiest with.”
The 25-year-old beauty - famed for her old-school glamour look - also says it’s important to dress in outfits that you feel comfortable in, not whether they’re in fashion or not: “I think the most important thing is to look comfortable in yourself and in your own skin, whether you’re wearing something crazy, high fashion or casual. As long as you own the look, that’s the most important thing.”
While she loves clothes, Scarlett admits to being a shoe addict. She said, “I love shoes. I don’t wear heels a lot, but I love them, and have a ton of them. Shoes are so beautiful - I love the way they are made and the way they make you feel.”
JCPenney to Carry Mango Line
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, News, Rumors, Sales,
Spanish-based clothing retailer Mango is moving into 600 JCPenney stores across the states by Fall 2010.
With both Charlotte Ronson and the Olsen twins stationing their own lines there, the department store seems to be making its way up the fashion industry ladder! While Mango has already set up 12 stand-alone shops in the US, it is nothing compared to its international number at 1,200; it is clear that the partnership is aimed at broadening its American presence.
Although the I Heart Ronson line isn’t too bad, there was nothing special about that line nor the Olsenboye range. This makes me wonder if Mango will be altering their clothes to fit the JCPenney look once they’re in the stores—the last time I ever step foot in the department store, I’m fairly sure I didn’t see any sweaters priced at $70.
Either way, I’m more concerned about having to prepare myself for a bombardment of Scarlett Johansson ads when I do my back-to-school shopping!

Mango Unveils Scarlett Johansson Ads
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, News, Sales, Women,
Never one to seem shy about her sex symbol status, Scarlett Johansson flaunts her petite, curvy self in her latest Mango ad campaign for Fall/Winter ‘09.
Shot in Los Angeles by famed fashion photographer Mario Sorrenti, Johansson poses against a myriad of grungy back drops, including a graffiti-stricken wall and trashy red leather couch (seen after the jump). There’s actually one shot in particular that looks strikingly similar to a Guess? jeans ad; however, the blinding yellow background in another image isn’t too pleasing, either—bright yellow fails to evoke a sense of Winter to me.
Despite my minor qualms, Scarlett looks hot.
