Who is more famous: Louis Vuitton or Scarlett Johansson?

Scarlett Johansson has recently appeared in these advertisements for the Louis Vuitton print and billboard campaign for the second time. Back in 2004 she made an appearance in a different series of ads for the company. The ad campaign is slated for release this season - Spring 2007.
In this photo shoots, Johansson appeared on a pink background with a very 1960s theme and clothing choice - very seductive, but don't consider it semi-nude. She looks truly beautiful in the adverts and the super model is also going to appear in other advertisement campaigns later in the year.

Catwalk queen Campbell puts away toilet brush

Super-tempered supermodel Naomi Campbell yesterday finished five days of community service with Manhattan's Department of Sanitation by sauntering out in a catwalk dress and heels, before stepping into her Rolls Royce and speeding away.
The British model finished work at a garbage truck garage after completing the service for assaulting her maid. Residents came running to catch a glimpse of her, laughing and cheering a woman the media has often painted as a hothead.
"From what I understand, she was pleasant the entire time," her boss for the week, sanitation department Deputy Chief Albert Durrell said. Her duties included sweeping garage floors, mopping and sweeping hallways, and scrubbing toilets, Durrell said. He said Campbell arrived on time each day, at 8am, and worked till 4pm.
Campbell wore a striking outfit most days, turning up one day in a short fur coat and boots, prompting speculation she had struck a deal with a fashion magazine.
The supermodel, 36, had pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault for throwing the phone at her maid about a year ago in her Park Ave apartment. The maid, Ana Scolavino, required four stitches to her head.
She could have been jailed for a year but, in a deal with prosecutors was ordered to do community service, take anger management classes and pay US$363.32 ($509) restitution to Scolavino, as well as her hospital bills. Source

Models are a great barometer of trends

Fashion is kick-started by the young, who freely adapt the looks being worn by their favorite models. Inspired by Kate Moss, who is credited with sparking any number of trends, many fashionistas embraced the drainpipe jeans, Ugg boots and Balenciaga bags the last few seasons.
What's next some one may ask?

The 60s retrospective - the A-shape line, which Jacky Kennedy made a classic style. Taking pointers from Yves Saint Laurent's January 1958 Trapeze collection for Dior, designers are turning out swingly, geometric dresses and skirts this season. They are paired with bare legs and platform sandals.

Even Kate Moss wears it this season.
Along with the style of Hollywood stars, that of models is sedulously documented on fashion Web sites and in fashion glossies, making their clothes cool by association.
Thankfully retailers are more detached and methodical, studying the style of models as a guide to looks that will resonate with shoppers and find their way onto the streets. Layered knits, skinny jeans, long beefy cardigans, flat shoes, miniskirts and tunics worn as dresses are a handful of the trends said to have been spawned backstage in the heat of recent fashion weeks in New York and Milano.

Kate Moss Continues to Stand by her Guy

I despise Pete, but it seams he has stolen Kate Moss's heart. She had to take him back to rehab yesterday as some very disturbing new video and images (Link)were published recently. They show that Pete is doing drugs again. I wish him to get better. Hopefully his latest entry to rehab is a sign he is working on getting the help he desperately needs. For some reasons Kate Moss continues to stand by him and hopefully her support will help Pete through this difficult time an stay clean.
On the side: Kate looks gorgeous in her leopard coath, seasons trend (Link) for some one going trough all this craziness. She could have got a better guy.

Anorexic Models

Last month, the organizers of Milan's Fashion Week announced a new rule barring the hiring of any model who is under the age of 16 or has a BMI of less than 18, as a response to a number of anorexia-induced deaths of runway models in recent months. Since then, everyone in the fashion world has anxiously awaited the response of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), and last week they finally issued their recommendations: "that models with eating disorders seek treatment, young models work limited hours, healthy food be supplied backstage and smoking and alcohol be banned."Ahhh...Do they seriously believe that "encouraging" treatment, making food more available and telling models they can't smoke or do drugs is going to change anything? These are not humans, they're MODELS, for goodness sake. They have the money and the connections to eat anywhere and anything they want, but they choose (Link) to subsist on cigarettes and cocaine (cough, Kate Moss, cough). I don't believe the fashion industry alone is the cause of unhealthy body image issues in young women, but they certainly continue to promote stick-thin bodies as the ideal.
And there are the replicated Hollywood actresses (think Kate Bosworth and Nicole Richie) who see their careers explode once they lose enough weight to wear couture clothes, prompting fashion magazines to feature them in pictorials, which helps them establish a reputation as a taste maker, which leads to bigger movie roles and the adoration of millions of young women. And then, even when they're drastically underweight, they're put on the covers of gossip rags, where all publicity is good publicity.
It's a sick cycle, and I do think that it all begins on the runways.A lot of designers and defenders of the status quo like to say that "clothes simply hang better on thin women." I think that there is some truth to that, but there's a difference between "thin" (such as a tall woman who's a size 4 or 6, and still has breasts and hips) and "skinny" (size 0 or 00, not an ounce of fat on her frame).

Hopefully the rounded figures of the fifties and sixties will come back to fashion and many young models will be safe from dying from starvation.
