Extreme Beauty Brings Out Three Extreme Beauties: Eva, Claudia, and Nadja March 3, 2009 1:27 pm >> Paris Fashion Week starts tomorrow, but fashion folk couldn't leave Milan without hitting up the Palazzo della Ragione last night for one last Milanese shindig, courtesy of Anna Wintour, Domenico Dolce, and Stefano Gabbana. The launch for the "Extreme Beauty in Vogue" exhibition — which Anna selected 89 images for — the party was likened to the Milanese equivalent of the Costume Institute Gala; in other words, the week's hottest ticket. Karl Lagerfeld made a beeline for the photos after mugging for a few cameras, while Anna was trailed by 60 Minutes's Morley Safer and Carine Roitfeld by CNN: “I am being followed round all the shows, and they are doing lots of interviews. But you won’t be seeing me naked.” Miuccia Prada sported one of her new Fall 2009 gladiatorial dresses, and rounding out the fashion wattage a troika of supermodels: two we see quite a bit of (Claudia Schiffer, Eva Herzigova) and one we do not (Nadja Auermann).*image: source, source

kate is great (this time) July 31, 2006 3:11 pm >> It looks more like a December cover than a September cover to me, but hey, it's a great cover, so I'll take it. I'll especially take the patent leather Alaia boots Kate's wearing.
Photographed by Mert & Marcus, Kate's editorial inside is supposed to be Marlene Dietrich-inspired -- which means at least one androgynous look (yessss). Even if that doesn't satisfy, the issue also features a best-dressed list, which of course Kate tops, but I'm looking forward to the features on Ozwald Boateng, Hedi Slimane, Mario Testino, Stella Tennant, Isabella Blow, Anna Piaggi, and Sofia Coppola, all of whom also made the list.
