Lara Stone has been a lightning rod in the hoards of otherwise bland and forgetful fashion models. Not only has she actual womanly curves (gasp!) she is pretty much constantly naked and her Vogue Paris spread by Steven Klein caused a big silly mess because she was shot with dark makeup on that make...

I’m having a really hard time believing that these joints would be flattering on the average jane’s body. Frankly, they don’t even look great on the model… maybe it’s the styling. Of course, American Apparel ads are better known for the at-times-creepy sexual angle, not for being especially stylish.

When the note for Kate Couric’s March Harper’s Bazaar spread hit my inbox I yawned, thinking “oh good, another Good Housekeeping photoshoot for me to ignore.” I love it when my cynicism is dead wrong.

We’ve caught a glimpse at some of Givenchy’s ads for Spring/Summer 2010. Their nice, but they don’t make me swoon like the runway presentation did. Model Mariacarla Boscono has made the leap from catwalk to campaign. She’s paiedr with Natalia Vodianova and a bevy of male models. The two women are an interesting combo:...

Lily Allen was photographed by Alan Gelati for Russian Vogue January 2010. Though her music has never gotten me very excited, I’m impress with Lily in this editorial. She’s showing some depth here and it makes me want to revisit her work (which is the point, I guess). These have much more dimension than...

Actress Carey Mulligan is featured in an editorial for US Vogue in January. I’ve noticed her on the red carpet and she always looks sharp. Mulligan proves she’s great for print as well in this endearingly quirky spread styled by Grace Coddington and shot by David Sims. The issue has Rachel McAdams on the...

V Magazine’s “Size Issue” hits the newstands January 14, 2010. Judging from the preview (courtesy of Models.com), the magazine will face the size-ist realities of fashion head on… but with polite preservation of the status quo.
