“Megan looked superhot and really was the star of the show. No wonder she has so many male fans all over the world - that Brian Austin Green is one lucky guy!” said one onlooker.

Erin O’Connor to Continue With Catwalk
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors,
Age is nothing but a number for Erin O’Connor, who has no plans to retire from the catwalk.
The 32-year-old beauty wants to carry on down the runway for as long as possible as she doesn’t think age has anything do to with a model’s ability to pose for the cameras.
“I hate that idea of retirement or ‘You’re past your sell-by-date.’ That is very odd, because, for me, it is about moving, showcasing and being an outrageous poser.”
Erin says she absolutely loves being in the fashion industry and finds being on the catwalk liberating: “You’d think after 15 years I would be bored, but I’m not. The catwalk is like liberation, because there is a bit of performance involved, a bit of skill thrown in, so it doesn’t matter what age you are.”
Now she is one of the more experienced women in the fashion industry, Erin recently set up the Model Sanctuary, which offers respite and a full-time nutritionist to very young models, as she knows they need help when starting out. “These are really young people. They don’t always realize that they need to set their own boundaries.”

Gucci Girl Evan Rachel Wood
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
True Blood star Evan Rachel Wood has become the face of Gucci’s new perfume.
The 21-year-old actress will front the campaign for the Italian fashion house’s latest female fragrance and Gucci creative director Frida Giannini thinks she is the ideal choice.
“I chose Evan Rachel Wood as she has very strong character. She’s young, but rising and influential figure. I didn’t want to offer this project to someone overexposed or too well known. Instead, I wanted a fresh individual that would coincide with the image of the project.”
Frida says she was inspired to sign Evan after seeing her on the big screen as her confidence oozes through: “Evan Rachel Wood is such a talented and beautiful actress. I have always admired her confidence and her ability to transform herself in front of the camera. Even though she can appear shy at times, when the camera starts rolling, she becomes animated and vivacious. She is incredible, very sexy, and her eyes and face really attract the people of her generation.”
Exact details about Evan’s debut for the brand have yet to be revealed.

Quote of the Day: Crystal Renn Hates the Word Plus-Size
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
“Part of the problem is this focus on straight sizes and plus sizes. It is creating an ‘us and them’ mentality. We need to change the way we approach the whole thing, and do away with these terms. All we are is a bunch of models, no matter what size. Among women at large there’s no separation into straight sizes and plus sizes. The term ‘plus-size’ leaves the public confused. In the industry a size eight is considered plus. In the wider world women don’t think like that.”
- Size 12 model Crystal Renn, speaks out about the term “plus-size.”

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Jennifer Love Hewitt would love to have Gisele Bundchen‘s body.
The Ghost Whisperer actress says she is still in the process of achieving her ideal figure after piling on some pounds in late 2007, and while she doesn’t want to get too thin she knows she still has a little way to go.
“I think I’m a work in progress. But I feel it’s so much better than it was a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today. I’d want to have Gisele Bundchen’s body. Even though she’s tall and skinny, she does have curves and I think that’s hot. Halle Berry also is kind of amazing.”

Celeb Stylist Rachel Zoe Prepares Eponymous Line
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
It’s about time! Rachel Zoe is to launch her own fashion range.
The celebrity stylist has started up her own brand, The Rachel Zoe Collection, which will include clothing, shoes and accessories, with plans to branch into interiors at a later date.
“Subconsciously or consciously, my whole final goal - I don’t want to say final because that sounds very like it’s the end - but I would say my ultimate dream scenario was to be on the design side. You will absolutely see my trademark pieces. I’ll definitely do faux furs and incredible leather jackets and great trousers. But I’m catering to a broader audience.”
Although her design team is yet to be announced, the collection is set to arrive in stores later next year. Rachel has become a huge name in the fashion industry - dressing a host of celebrities including Nicole Richie, Eva Mendes and Cameron Diaz - but hates it when people think she’s just become an overnight success.

Daphne Guinness Buys Isabella Blow Wardrobe
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, News, Rumors,
The auction of the late Isabella Blow’s wardrobe has been cancelled after Daphne Guinness bought everything.
The event had been due to take place at London auction house Christie’s in September, with the fashion icon’s stunning collection of clothes - including over 90 outfits by the late Alexander McQueen, 50 hats by Philip Treacy and many beautiful Manolo Blahnik shoes - all going under the hammer.
Art and fashion collector Guinness, however, has now snapped up every item in a private sale but aims to keep the collection intact.
“It’s Issy - it’s her DNA - it should not be scattered to the four winds. I want it to remain as a monument.”
“The reaction to news of the Isabella Blow collection has been a tribute to the dedication and style of a true fashion muse. The executors are delighted that their sister’s estate can now be settled, and are very confident the collection has found the perfect home,” said Patricia Frost, Christie’s director of vintage fashion and textiles.
The planned auction had been organized by Blow’s sisters and was also set to include portraits of Blow by photographer Mario Testino and Karl Lagerfeld.
Dov Charney Denies No Uglies Policy, Will Answer Your Questions
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Health & Beauty, News, Rumors,
In light of a former (anonymous) American Apparel employee’s allegations that the hiring policy is heavily weighed by the attractiveness of the applicant, the international company has issued a statement denying such claims.
“American Apparel does not hire or retain applicants based on ‘beauty.’ Our main priority is finding people with a strong sense of style who can inspire customers as they make selections from our extensive line… It has never been the policy of American Apparel, as some blogs claim, to fire employees who are not “good looking” or any of the other accusations implied by the anonymous or unverified third party sources. The company legitimately reviews current photographs of job applicants and employees to consider their sense of style and the way in which they present themselves… This is a standard practice among fashion-forward retailers.
While they may call it “style,” I’m inclined to believe that it’s just another word for “beauty.” I mean, have you seen the hipsterbots at the store?
Moreover, the press statement addresses the topic of hiring process, but has made no mention of its irksomely precise grooming etiquette... If you’d like to talk to CEO Dov Charney about any of this, he’s made his phone number available to the public:
