Fab Ad: BCBG Fall '08

FabSugar — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 09:00:22 -0700

BCBG ads have never blown me away . . . until now. Serafima, Tanya D and Nicole Trunfio show off the clothes wonderfully, despite blurry visions passing to and fro. Patrick Demarchelier captured the youth, beauty, and even an element of cool for the brand. The models are a bit whitewashed, but I suppose that makes the images more striking; they look like mannequins. Normally I would like a bit more personality from the talent, but the talent was all in the clothes and behind the lens. I can't wait to see this one in a full glossy, what about you?

Fashion Week Quickie: Model Stampede at Lanvin!

Alber Elbaz concocted a drape-happy, tulle-loving, moody, detailed Fall '09 collection for Lanvin. To conclude it, behold a model stampede with Lily Donaldson and (a giggling) Raquel Zimmermann at the front. Following closely behind are Natasha Poly, Ali Stephens, Marina Peres, Tanya D., and Vlada Roslyakova. If I were you, I'd move out the way . . .

Victoria in Valli: Love It or Hate It?

It was love at first sight when I saw this white sheath dress with fur back in Giambattista Valli's Fall show. I thought model Tanya D. lent much-needed delicateness to it. Seeing it now on Victoria Beckham, I can't say that I love it as much. There's no doubt the dress is still stunning and visionary, but I think Posh's features are too blunt for such a dainty dress. And her stiff posing doesn't help. What do you say? Do you love or hate Victoria in Valli?

Models That Look Like . . . Animals?

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 08:00:22 -0800

I've always had a real talent for likening people to animals so it was only a matter of time until "It" models became my victims. My first prey: Jessica Stam, whose cat-like eyes make her look like she's a part of the feline family (in this case, a lioness). That connection is pretty obvious. Not so obvious, and funny, are my other victims, Shalom Harlow, Coco Rocha, Stella Tennant, Jacquetta Wheeler, and Tanya D. Check out the gallery below to find out which animals I compare them to, and feel free to share your thoughts. Oh, and if you see a resemblance between another model and an animal, do tell!
