Isaac Mizrahi: Too-Skinny Models Are a Problem of the Past
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models,
Fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi believes that models' body issues are a thing of the past.
Despite three fashion models dying in the past six years from eating disorders and some still coming out these days saying that they're recovering from eating disorders, Mizrahi claims that such issues are no longer problems in today's industry:
"I don't notice girls anymore in the majority who are sickly-looking. Even if they're tall and thin now, they look healthier to me. Not fat, not fatter, but they just look healthier. I mean this -- there was a moment when there was this whole heroin chic thing and it just looked terrible. It just looked terrible! And now everyone points at it and goes, 'Oh dear, that's terrible.' And the girls are encouraged to be thin, but I don't think they're encouraged to look like drug addicts anymore. I mean, I'm sure there are some designers who like the girls to look like drug addicts, but not on the whole the way it was for a good 10 years -- like, in the middle of the '90s to around 2002 or so. There was that thing going on, and it was sickening, absolutely sickening. I don't think it exists anymore."

Naomi Campbell Violently Attacked
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Models, News,
Naomi Campbell suffered a torn ligament in her leg after she was violently attacked and robbed on a Paris street.
The British supermodel was recently sporting a cast on her leg for a mystery injury and it has now been revealed she was set upon by a group of thugs after she tried to hail a cab in the French capital during the incident last month.
"It was terrifying. Naomi believes the assailant had been watching her, casing her out, and waited for a moment to strike when she was alone. She was attacked in the street as she hailed a cab, and robbed. Her leg was injured as she was violently pushed to the ground. She was understandably very upset and shaken up," a source told The New York Post.
It is not known what the thugs stole from her, but it's believed they were targeting the expensive jewelry she may have been wearing. The 42-year-old beauty's billionaire boyfriend, Vladimir Doronin, immediately flew her by private jet to Vail, Colorado, where she was treated by J. Richard Steadman, one of the top orthopaedic surgeons in the world. Naomi has been using a wheelchair and crutches to get around following the attack, and Vladimir has upped security around her.

+ Although Kristen Stewart seems to favor t-shirts and sneakers when not on a publicity tour, but she cleans up quite well when she is! Although she doesn't seem too much of a Victoria Beckham fan, Stewart looked great in an orange number from the popstar-turned-designer's eponymous line at an appearance on Live with Kelly and Michael.
+ EMA host Heidi Klum may have worn Versace the whole night of the event, but not all of them seem to be the best of fashion choices. The same goes for the rest of the stars that evening - Lana Del Rey wore the most plainest black dress while Kim Kardashian looked like she was wearing a train of black trash bags.
+ Want a pair of heels you might have seen on display at the Victoria's Secret fashion show? Unfortunately, designer Nicholas Kirkwood says he's not selling them - unless you want to special order some through his stores, of course. He also seems to hint at the possibility of collaborating with the lingerie giant in the future.
Quote of the Day: Karl Lagerfeld on Anorexia

"I'm sorry to say that it's a subject I consider ridiculous for several reasons; the story with the anorexic girls - nobody works with anorexic girls, that's nothing to do with fashion. People who have that [anorexia] have problems to do with family and things like that... There are less than 1 per cent of anorexic girls, but there more than 30 per cent of girls in France - I don't know about England - that are much, much overweight. And it is much more dangerous and very bad for the health. So I think today with the junk food in front of the TV it's something dangerous for the health of the girl."
- Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld on an issue in the fashion world that has been addressed by both models and designers in the industry.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty,
The "Where Have You Been" singer has admitted to being a tiny size zero, but would prefer her fuller figure back.
"I'm a size 0 - and not happy about it! I went way too far. I prefer myself a bit chunkier. I want my old butt back!" she told US Weekly.
The 24-year-old is working on her seventh CD and is trying to squeeze in some more relaxation time. But her jam-packed calendar is having a slimming effect on famous beach body.
"I want to do two more [movies] before touring again next year. My schedule is crazy!" the Battleship star said.
The Barbados-born beauty was recently admitted to hospital for fatigue following her appearance at the Met Ball last month. She stunned audiences in a black, reptile-inspired Tom Ford gown but had fans worried about her shrinking frame: "I got no sleep [beforehand]. It's harsh on your body!"
Experts have suggested that Rihanna may be suffering from narcissistic personality disorder while friends insist she is '"feeling lost."
