Fab Flash: Vogue India Launches
The inaugural issue of Vogue India hit stands today, featuring Bollywood stars Bipasha Basu, Priyanka Chopra and Preity Zinta, local supermodels MoniKangana Dutta and Laxmi Menon, and Australian supermodel Gemma Ward all on the cover, shot by fashion photographer Patrick Demarchelier.
This new edition of Vogue is expected to be more colorful and more vibrant than the western models, according to Alex Kuruvilla, managing director of Conde Nast India. He also expects it to draw attention to Indian designers, Indian photographers, and even Indian models.
Fab Flash: Gemma Ward the Inaugural Face of Vogue India
Gemma Ward is one lucky lady! She not only got to appear on the inaugural cover of Vogue China two years ago (below), but she just recently shot the cover of the debut issue of Vogue India, which is expected to appear in September. I love Gemma, but I think it is interesting that they chose her for the first covers of both the Chinese and Indian Vogues.

Glitterati: Gemma Redux
By just looking at her tough necklaces and earrings, you'd never guess that Gemma Redux designer Rachel Dooley is completely self-taught. In fact, designing jewelry was her creative outlet while studying for the New York Bar exam. I've had a few friends take that horrendous test, and they were never able to do anything but study.
This Week's Fab Favorite: Blake Lively
Try to stop staring at Blake's legs and focus on her teal Vena Cava Resort zigzag print jumper, her black Miu Miu bowler, and Gemma Redux statement necklace. Blake has been the best dressed of all her co-stars this week during her promotions for Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2; she was also Celebrity Styled in a chic jean outfit. But I have to say all four of the young ladies have been looking smashing.
Models Shake It For a Polaroid Picture
Something about viewing go-see Polaroids of models seems invasive, but cool. It's almost like getting a sneak peek of your favorite models in the comfort of their own home, without tons of makeup, without all the serious posing. For those who aren't familiar with modeling jargon, a go-see is an appointment arranged by the model or her agency as an opportunity to interview with clients.

Style For Style: Removing Nasty Armpit Stains
Lily Donaldson and Gemma Ward make doing laundry look glamorous, but for those of us in the real world, it's anything but. Whether you're doing it in a ball gown or not, the reality is that yellow pit stains are one of the things that make the process grueling. They're stubborn and a major pain to remove.
Fab Ad: Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2008
Designer ads are getting more and more colorful, and it's making me want to skip Winter and jump straight to Spring. Take Dolce & Gabbana's Spring 2008 ads featuring Gemma Ward, Lily Donaldson, and Jessica Stam; they're still very Dolce & Gabbana raw, minus the groping and grinding action. There's something ultra cool about swan-like models clad in luxurious fabrics lounging in a shabby art warehouse.
Fab Ad: Valentino Fall/Winter 2007
Mr. Garavani appointed quite the triumvirate for his Fall ad representation: Gemma Ward, Daria Werbowy, and Hilary Rhoda. The girls are lookin' good in Va-Va's trademark red dresses and matching red lipstick.
Fab Ad: Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2007
I have to say, these ads are pretty intense. Believe it or not, that's Gemma Ward under there. I'm not sure how I feel about the muzzle-like knit on her face - I'm sure it has some underlying meaning, but I don't like the symbolism of a woman being muzzled.
