Hot off the heels of announcing its US ecommerce site yesterday, Zara just released its Fall campaign featuring Stella Tennant. Stella, who was also featured in its Spring ad, is photographed wearing dark palettes from Zara's collection: loose-cut trousers, marl-knit sweaters, and a good variety of colored and printed pants. Take a look at the slideshow to see the complete ad campaign and start Read more

Fall 2011 Paris Fashion Week: Balenciaga 2011-03-03 12:21:22

Each season, Balenciaga designer Nicolas Ghesquiere is able to take a familiar silhouette, deconstruct it, and present something to us that is undeniably new and futuristic. For example: this floral dress layered with a sheer-paneled top and vest, seen left. The combination has been seen a hundred times, but Ghesquiere added a new twist to the concept via a slick lizard-and-flower-print skirt, a Read more

Zara's Spring '11 Lookbook Features Stella Tennant 2011-02-02 13:38:05

Does Stella Tennant get better with age? The 40-something model brought her ageless beauty to Zara for its Spring/Summer '11 lookbook, showing how graceful and elegant the minimalist trend can be, particularly with pops of color. We love Zara for its sophisticated, fashion-forward pieces at prices we don't feel guilty about, and the Spring collection looks like it will be our go-to when we're Read more

Spring 2011 Fashion Ads

We've already feasted our eyes on some of Spring 2011's superhot ad campaigns, and the second round of designer endorsements packs an equally sexy punch. Victoria's Secret vixen Erin Heatherton lent her smokin' bikini body to John Galliano's Lingerie and Swimwear campaign, fresh-faced Cara Delevingne modeled Burberry's chic offerings, and a spiky-haired Agyness Deyn clowned around in the ads for Read more

Are Older Models Here to Stay?

With Inès de la Fressange, Elle Macpherson, Stella Tennant, and other prominent not-so-teenaged models walking the runways at Fashion Week for the last couple seasons, some people are now speculating that the more mature catwalker is here to stay. Since most of the people actually buying designer clothes are well out of their teens, having models with a little more life experience than your Read more

Balenciaga Fall 2010 Ad

While the Spring '10 Balenciaga ads were trippy, Fall's are super intense. They all feature the same format — single shot on the right, group shot to the left — but each has its appeal. I'm most excited to see '90s Brit model Stella Tennant (far right), who joins the gang, including Freja Beha Erichsen, Karen Elson, Caroline Brasch-Nielsen, Stella Meghan Collison, Mirte Maas, Valerija Kelava, Read more

Style Glossary: Rive Gauche

Rive Gauche The left bank of the Seine River in Paris; one of the city's most romantic districts. More than simply a geographical region, the Left Bank has become a name for a particular fashion or look. In 1966 Yves Saint Laurent launched a ready-to-wear line by the name Rive Gauche. The collection was an attempt to democratize fashion, introducing elements of garments of the lower classes into Read more

Models That Look Like . . . Animals?

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 Read more
