Red Nose Comic Relief

In the new campaign film for Stella McCartney’s Red Nose Day T-shirt collection for Comic Relief, two of the coolest British people show up: Kate Moss and David Walliams.
The collection features pop cultural icons including The Beatles, Marilyn Monroe and Kate Moss herself will help raise funds for Comic Relief, which is a major charity based in the UK which strives to create a just world free from poverty.
And to make things even cooler: the campaign has been shot by Mary McCartney and Helena Christensen. In the behind the scenes film, the Little Britain comic (and husband ánd soon to be baby’s daddy of model Lara Stone) David speaks of Stella as a “proper fashion designer”, straight faced. Which I thought was funny. But then again, he knows all about fun.  [EH]

Kate for Versace spring ’13 campaign

You want hot, you want bronze, you want sexy? Pick Versace, it never fails. And taking into account that little Miss Moss never fails either, we have quite a winner on our hands here.
We’re talking about Versace’s new spring/summer 2013 campaign. Featuring the model in a steamy scene, surrounded by three very nice looking gentlemen in typical Versace chic (Check that underwear! Good heavens!). Kate is staring off into the distance while rocking the label’s sultry orange and black lace mini dress and bondage-inspired leather boots. And just when you think it can’t get any hotter, there are campaign darlings Daria Werbowy and Joan Smalls, making this campaign an absolute must see. Captured by fashion photographers Mert & Marcus from London.
It’s fierce, it’s flashy and it’s full on: it’s Versace, dahling. [EH]

Bring me Bowie

Hail, hail to the king: Gucci is sponsoring a tribute to David Bowie’s style at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum. David Bowie Is.
In a zeitgeist where it is all about paying tribute to those who changed the face of fashion, David Bowie cannot be missed. Remember the Ziggy Stardust inspired covers Kate Moss did for Vogue? Yep, Kate knows a cool guy when she sees one and now Vic and Albert do too.
The museum has been given unprecedented access to the David Bowie Archive to curate the first international retrospective of his extraordinary career.
That means over 300 objects, including costumes, handwritten notes, set designs, album art work and will be on display.
Can’t wait. No man has influenced modern pop, fashion and art culture like Bowie did, and if I ever was in the lucky position to travel in a time machine, I’d have him taking me right back to the seventies, to the Studio 54, stiff drink in my left hand, Bowie on my right.
In the meanwhile, I’ll just get me a ticket to London. Best next best thing, right? [EH]

Vintage! The return of House of Style.

In times were anything from earlier days seems more popular than innovation, also MTV has announced that it will resurrect it’s favorite cult fashion program House of Style, which hasn’t aired in almost a decade. Yes, Cindy C. back on telly!
The show won’t run as a full 30 min. TV show as it did from 1989 to 2002, but will be integrated across MTV’s multiple media platforms. On August 7, a short documentary called House of Style: Music, Models and MTV will be aired, just to refresh your memory. But hey, who doesn’t remember that video of Naomi Campbells acne removal methods, or the gossipy backstage interviews with then-puppy’s Kate Moss, Helena Christensen and Kristen McMenamy? O, how I loved that show, and wait a minute, I  think I still have some episodes on VHS tapes lying around… O, you don’t know what VHS is? Good heavens, know your vintage dear! [EH]

Coffee with Kate

We already had Angela Buttolph’s book on Kate Moss’s style and Mario Testino’s retrospective of his photographs of The Model on our table. But now it’s time for the pinnacle of her career: a new coffee-table book chronicling Kate Moss’s 20 year modeling career is in the making.
The iconic supermodel is bringing a heavy dose of fashion photography to your morning cup o’ joe. Coming this fall, publisher Rizzoli will release a 368-page whopper of a book titled Kate, The Kate Moss Book. Edited by Interview Magazine Editorial Director Fabien Baron and with contributions from Jefferson Hack (the father of Moss’s daughter Lila Grace), it will contain a retrospective of her career. It starts with some of Moss’s first modeling shots ever, and we all know how it went from there. From Hedi Slimane to Juergen Teller and from Terry Richardson to Karl Lagerfeld: prepare for a doubledose of fashioncaffeine this fall. [EH]

Modelympics

So, let’s be honest here: how many of you guys are actually jumping for joy now that the Olympics are about to begin? Yeah… me neither. Appreciate that it’s there, no need to watch it. Although I do get all teary-eyed when I see one a of the winners on the news at night, but that’s just me being sentimental.
For all you girls out there who rather watch another episode of The Good Wife DVD box – we do – but are stuck with a man who religiously watches all aspects of The Olympics, here’s some terrific news: a host of British supermodels including Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell, will take it to the runway during the closing ceremony. They will be joined by Georgia May Jagger, Stella Tennant, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Lily Cole.
British designers Vivienne Westwood and Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen will dress the models and presentation will be set to David Bowie’s songs ‘Fashion’ and ‘Rebel Rebel’. British finest, for sure. This is what we call a reward for being A Good Wife! [EH]

Grazia Fashion Jury

We love to analyse who's wearing what. And often wondering why... Don't we all? So what's better then to do it out loud for Dutch Grazia Magazine? We are in the good company of Grazia's editor Liesbeth and stylist Edith Dohmen in this weeks Fashion Jury.  It revolves around women wearing pants. We do. That look of Kate Moss: pants & shirt and off she goes. How effortless can you get. Yes, Jealous. January Jones downsized her style to a boyish look, compared to her ultra feminine Betty Draper charactre in Mad Men. One detail remained the same however, her beautiful Prada fifties style Pyramid Frame bag. And yes, the other pic looks like babyblue pyamas. Emilio Pucci, in this case. No comment on that.

Kate Moss does The Ritz.

Kate Moss wears spring 2012 couture in the latest issue of Vogue US and to be short: it doesn't get much better than this. Styled by Grace Coddington and photographed by Tim Walker at the Ritz Paris, these pictures are just plain poster material. In honor of the hotel's storied fashion history (Coco Chanel lived there, after all), Walker photographed Moss in the most beautiful couture dresses by Alexander McQueen, Dior, and Giambattista Valli. Our favourite pic is the one with the dogs.  Marie-Antoinette eat your heart out.
Moss looks so at home in all of the pictures.This might be because she's spent a lot of time at the Ritz.
 "When I was with Johnny Depp, he always stayed there. I had an apartment in Paris at the time, but he said, 'No, we're staying at the Ritz,' so he came by and swept me up to the Ritz — he didn't want to slum it in my apartment." No comment...
