Crystal Renn Lands Her First Vogue Cover
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Editorials, Health & Beauty, Models,
The year 2011 has thus far been a promising one for Crystal Renn, who landed her first Vogue cover for Vogue Mexico's April issue.
Photographed by David Roemer and styled by Sarah Gore-Reeves, Renn brings out the fun, excitement of fashion with her poses and lights up the magazine's pages while also welcoming spring with bold, bright lips, eyeshadow, nails, and clothes.
Admittedly, the coveted Vogue cover gig was long overdue for Renn, who has previously starred in several Vogue editorials, including a food-centric one shot by Terry Richardson under the former Vogue Paris editor-in-chief Carine Roitfeld.
Turned away from a Vogue Italia cover for not being able to fit into the dress the magazine desired, Renn now has been vindicated with a cover that has received an overwhelming amount of praise, prompting many to believe she may appear on the American edition soon.
Check out the rest of the story after the jump for more photos and a behind-the-scenes video!

Tom Ford Womenswear Fashion Show Unveiled
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Models, Videos,
A sneak peek from Emily Blunt in Harper's Bazaar and full-length images at Vogue are simply not enough when it comes to viewing Tom Ford's Spring/Summer 2011 womenswear collection. Thankfully, the designer does have a heart enough to offer fashion hungry fans a video of his line's private show.
In the video, a handful of fashion editors stare in awe and amazement at the collection, which was modeled by an interesting mix of celebrities and models -- from Daphne Guinness and Lauren Hutton to Beyonce and Julianne Moore. Set to model Karen Elson's song, "Pretty Babies," the video's cuts flash (unfortunately) as frequently as Terry Richardson's camera. They may be quick looks of the designs, but it's definitely better than nothing!

See (Finally!) Taylor Momsen in John Galliano Commercial
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celebrities, Videos,
Earlier this year, we got to hear Taylor Momsen (sort) of fronting a perfume commercial for John Galliano. Now, we actually get to see her in the ad.
Although we found it strange that she didn’t really appear in the first version, we’re kind of torn now. After watching both videos, let us know what you think. Do you like the Parlez-Moi d'Amour spot better when you’re focusing on her singing – or on her raccoon eyes?

VIDEO: Lauren Conrad Offers Fashion Advice Via PSA
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Videos,
Reality star-turned-writer Lauren Conrad is taking to the internet (with the help of Ryan Seacrest) to promote her latest book, Style.
In her PSA, Conrad targets “fashion f****-ups,” in which she uses Anna Wintour‘s face to cover up the expletive. As humorous as it is and as much as I agree, I find it hard to listen to fashion advice from someone whose style mostly consists of flip-flops, jeans, and simple dresses. Her boldest fashion move was a Moschino dress at the MTV Movie Awards!
If you do happen to like her styling tips, her book is now available in stores.
VIDEO: Emma Watson Models for People Tree

Emma Watson continues to front the People Tree brand, for which she acts as a creative advisor.
This time around, the Harry Potter star is showing off her extremely short hair, and she looks great! She may be selling me on the hair, but I’m not so sure if these summertime dresses would be right for the upcoming cold season. The brand does get major bonus points for being fair-trade.

VIDEO: Taylor Momsen Sort of Fronts John Galliano Perfume
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News, Videos,
Gossip Girl star-turned-stripper-rocker Taylor Momsen was hired by John Galliano to front his perfume campaign for Parlez-Moi D’Amour. This came as quite a shock, considering Galliano seems like he’d want someone with more class (and perhaps less eyeliner) to become the face of his high-end beauty product.
The first promo for the product (seen in the video above) for which Momsen was hired doesn’t actually have the actress in it. Well, not her face, anyway. Instead, the actress lends her vocal chords to a tune much softer than what her bandmates are used to playing. All in all, it’s not so bad, but who would honestly know that it’s her? Seems like some wasted money on Galliano’s part.

—Corrine Day, the fashion photographer noted for propelling Kate Moss’ career with their FACE editorial in 1990, passed away on Friday after a battle with brain cancer.
VIDEO: Martin Scorcese Directs Chanel Ad
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News, Videos,
You know that a fashion house has staying power when it can enlist the directorial skills of an Oscar winner like Martin Scorcese. Such was the case with Chanel, who hired Scorcese to direct a commercial for its men’s fragrance, Bleu de Chanel.
While the French actor Gaspard Ulliel captivates most of my attention, I can’t help but compare it to David Lynch’s gig for Dior. With Lynch, at least you still saw his signature touch in the video. Scorcese’s, while much shorter in length, looked more like the typical run-of-the-mill fragrance spot. Even Frank Miller made an interesting take on Gucci’s perfume!
