Forum Buzz Laetitia Casta’s Got Flair (Forum Buzz)In my continuing efforts to sing (err, write… whatever) Laetitia Casta’s praises at every opportunity, I bring you her latest magazine cover for Flair on which she appears wearing Dolce & Gabbana, photographed by Sean and Seng. From all indications, most forum members are just as obsessed with Laetita as I am. “Wow, these lips […] Read moreInterview Really Likes Halle Berry Right Now (Forum Buzz)Halle Berry is the cover model for not one, but two Interview magazine covers this November. Interview Russia went the uber-glam route with a black and white shot and glitzy gold metallic masthead, while Interview Germany went for a softer 70s glam look with Halle’s face more obviously haloed in an afro as she looks coyly over […] Read moreAnna de Rijk Covers Vogue Netherlands’ November Issue (Forum Buzz)Anna de Rijk graces the cover of Vogue Netherlands’ November Issue styled in a frilly white lace confection by Dolce & Gabbana and an eye-catching jeweled necklace. Joining Anna within the pages of the magazine are models Mirte Maas, Laura Kampman, and more. Having yet to reach a full year in publication, this magazine still […] Read moreVogue Turkey Dares to Be Different for Its November Art Issue (Forum Buzz)Art, especially contemporary art, is often meant to provoke and confuse, and Vogue Turkey did just that with the cover image they commissioned from Turkish artist Taner Ceylan for its November Art Issue. Ceylan previously suffered a cultural backlash for being one of the first Turkish artists to incorporate homoerotic imagery in his work, but […] Read moreLink Buzz: Sally Singer Goes Back to Vogue; DIY Nail Art EssentialsStarting October 29, Sally Singer will be Vogue's first-ever new Digital Creative Director. [Fashionologie] You should get a nail art toolkit because you can never have too many things. [BellaSugar] Hey wait, but actually: printed suits are as good as suits get. [FabSugar] ScarJo broke up with her ad exec boyfriend Nate […] Read moreCara Delevingne and Saskia de Brauw Star in Chanel’s Opulent Cruise 2013 Campaign (Forum Buzz)For Chanel’s Cruise 2013 ad campaign, Karl Lagerfeld went for an opulent, Marie Antoinette-esque vibe that befits the ruffles and intricate detailing of the collection. The Kaiser tapped models Cara Delevingne and Saskia de Brauw to front the campaign, but despite Cara’s current popularity, forum members don’t seem to be too fond of her. Most […] Read moreThe Eccentric Iris Apfel Looks Amazing on Dazed & Confused (Forum Buzz)Iris Apfel wearing Comme des Garcons on the cover of Dazed & Confused’s November 2012 issue (photographed by Jeff Bark) is the thing we never knew we were missing in our lives. Simply put, she’s amazing, and this magazine cover is amazing. Who better than the legendary Ms. Apfel to model Dazed & Confused's take on […] Read moreSasha Pivovarova and Prada Reunited for Resort 2013! (Forum Buzz)Sasha Pivovarova’s career began on the Prada runway, and she was subsequently signed to an exclusive three-year advertising contract with the brand, so it seems fitting that Sasha and Prada would reunite for the model’s post-pregnancy comeback. Though she only gave birth this past May, Sasha looks more than ready for her close-up in Prada’s […] Read moreYSL Wants Its Louboutin Feud to Be OverAfter spending over a year mired in a lawsuit over red-soled shoes with Christian Louboutin, today Yves Saint Laurent filed a motion to dismiss the remainder of the case. Louboutin initiated the legal battle in April 2011 when it tried to block sales of a YSL monochromatic red pump, claiming it infringed on Louboutin's 2008 […] Read moreLana Del Rey Made Another Epic Music Video (Forum Buzz)Can we even call Lana Del Rey’s music videos “music videos” anymore? Something about it just doesn't feel right. These videos tend to be so highly produced and epically long that “music video” feels diminutive. Lana Del Rey is making music mini-films. Her latest is for a song called “Ride” and the actual song is […] Read moreVogue Portugal Steps It Up for Their Tenth Anniversary Issue (Forum Buzz)Vogue Portugal tends to get the short end of the stick, with lots of (often unfortunate) reprints from other editions and a lack of distinct identity. But, for its tenth anniversary issue, forum members are pleased to see that they’ve stepped it up. A red-clad Sara Sampaio poses prettily for the camera in a studio shot […] Read moreVogue Paris Celebrates Beauty at Every Age With a Supermodel Trio (Forum Buzz)From the crisp white shirts and faded denim to the use of a trio of supermodels – Daria Werbowy, Stephanie Seymour, Lauren Hutton – Vogue Paris’ November issue’s cover photographed by Inez & Vinoodh feels very much like an ode to the supermodel but, in fact it’s a bit more than that. It’s an ode […] Read moreKarlie Kloss and Travis Smith Model the Fall 2013 Versus Collection (Forum Buzz)Karlie Kloss and Travis Smith costar in the Versus Fall 2013 ad campaign photographed by Daniele Duella and Iango, and the images do not disappoint. “This is what Versace should look like. The vibe is reminding me of their ads from the early 2000s. Karlie is working that blonde hair,” LabelWhore4 commented. “Love it! It […] Read moreMila Kunis is Out and Jennifer Lawrence is In for Miss Dior (Forum Buzz)Forum members were never entirely sure that Mila Kunis fit the image of Christian Dior and its Miss Dior collection, and it seems that Dior wasn’t so sure either. Starting with the Spring 2013 Miss Dior handbags advertising campaign, Jennifer Lawrence will be taking over as the new face of the brand. Like it was […] Read moreMaison Martin Margiela x H&M Campaign Images! (Forum Buzz)We’ll have to wait until November 15 for Maison Martin Margiela’s capsule collection for H&M to hit stores, but now that we're getting teased with ad campaign images, November 15 seem to be an eternity away. The ad campaign was photographed by the talented Sam Taylor-Wood in Paris in July, with creative direction by Markus Kiersztan, and […] Read moreBrad Pitt’s Voice May Lull You Into Purchasing Chanel No. 5 (Forum Buzz)It’s no secret that Brad Pitt is being paid A LOT to lend himself to Chanel as the latest face of its iconic Chanel No. 5 perfume. It seems so unorthodox to employ a man to represent a women’s perfume, but maybe it’s not so crazy… if you’ve got a handsome man telling you he […] Read moreBrad Pitt Covers Interview’s October/November Issue (Forum Buzz)Brad Pitt features in Interview’s latest issue in a cover and editorial shot by Steven Klein, who presumably followed a directive not to Photoshop the images (as Brad has notably requested in the past when on the cover of W). Brad appears in the images, wrinkles, pores, and all, styed in various looks by Ludivine […] Read moreTake It Or Leave It? Saint Laurent Mens Skinny Line Spring/Summer 2013 Lookbook (Forum Buzz)One of the many things Hedi Slimane is doing over at Saint Laurent (when he’s taking a break from creating new logos and composing bitter tweets directed at Cathy Horyn) is designing a new Skinny collection for men. More casual and laid-back than the brand’s mainline men's collection, the Skinny line Lookbook for Spring/Summer 2013 […] Read moreNicole Kidman Goes for the Gold on Harper’s Bazaar’s November Cover (Forum Buzz)It may be a bit late in the year for an Olympic reference, but Nicole Kidman’s gold-on-gold-on-gold-on-gold Harper’s Bazaar cover is kind of asking for it. This doesn’t look like Terry Richardson’s usual fare (there’s nothing overtly raunchy or overly sexualized about it), and for “The Daring Issue” there’s nothing particularly daring about putting the […] Read moreMiranda Kerr: The Angel We Love to Hate?RUSSH got unashamedly patriotic for its lastest “homegrown issue,” enlisting one of Australia’s most recognisable faces to front October/November’s cover. Editor in Chief Jess Blanch dedicates the issue to everything the great southern land has to offer beyond Vegemite and other such clichés and, as both Jess and our forums agree, undoubtedly one of the […] Read more |
