The Victoria's Secret Takeover

First Isabeli on November VP (sorry Raquel!) and now Miranda Kerr and Ana Beatriz on V?! Looks like those "alien"-esque girls stand no chance ...

Naughty Pussy

The MOD squad is hearing a lot from the Catherine McNeil tent ... and it's not pretty. The Australian model surprised on-lookers at The Ivy on Sunday night by drinking directly out of a champagne bottle ... and she was with none other than her new (as the press quaintly put it) "gal pal" Ruby Rose ... when asked of her plans for the future? "I'm here to party"
Get your shit together Catherine. Champagne is fun and all, but not when it can induce premature wrinkles. Gasp - the horror!

The Dior Woman .. Yeah Right

Karlie Kloss has landed the Spring Summer 2010 campaign. This after her atrocious catwalk ... seriously though, what was she thinking. A seventeen year old fronting a ladies-who-lunch brand. I would hate on her but this picture is stopping me ... dayum. And I mean that in the most heterosexually charged way ...

The New Trinity ... Minus One

Two newbies and an oldie ( seriously though, GTFO Claudia ) for the latest Chanel campaign ...
Karl Lagerfeld is shooting the next Chanel campaign on location in Buenos Aires with Claudia Schiffer, Freja Beha Erichsen and Baptiste Giabiconi.
So Freja, Baptits and Claudia? Lara got shafted again and Heidi Mount is out. Sorry Karl, but how do you parlay a barn themed collection with Argentina? ... we shall see ...

Catherine McNeil - Size 0 No More ...

One of the biggest absences felt on the catwalk this season was Catherine McNeil (heck, even Daria walked at Balmain!). Which is leading to all sorts of rumors about illnesses ... or a supposed weight gain?
The MOD squad hears that Cat is going the way of her Australian counterpart Gemma Ward ... or maybe its just a case of leprosy?

Cindy - the next Lindsay?

Uh oh, Cindy Crawford ... we know the divorce hit you hard, but lay back on the cosmos (or whatever middle aged models drink nowadays...). At least you didn't pull a Lindsay - panties are still intact!

Vogue Paris November 2009 ...

... is Raquel Zimmermann. "A mysterious blonde photographed by Sorrenti" was what the mod squad heard ... and now it's been confirmed. RZ has been photographed by Mario Sorrenti for VP November as well as that Inez and Vinoodh ...

Did You Know ...

The small part Claudia Schiffer played in 2004's Love, Actually was actually written for Kate Moss?

Freja Likes Boys?

Apparently is-she-or-isn't-she lesbian icon extraordinaire Freja Beha actually has a thing for guys .... a friend of a friend who lives in the same building as her says shes "dating a guy" ... somehow I find this hard to believe ... but don't they have cooties or something?

Balenciaga SS 2010 Campaign

Nicolas Ghesquire must be listening to the hisses of his loyal fans ... the new SS 2010 Balenciaga campaign is said to be an all model cast - no celebrities this time around ...

But Victoria's Secret Angel Miranda Kerr (who exclusively walked for Balenciaga this season, a la Adriana Lima in FW09) won't be one of the headliners ...

Filipa vs. Ralph

Filippa Hamilton is the latest model (and one of the only ... ) to speak out about the weight controversies in the fashion world ... According to Filippa she was fired from Ralph Lauren (after 8 years with the brand) for "being too fat". But RL's people insist it was "a result of her inability to meet the obligations under her contract with us" ...

This coming after Filippa's freak photoshop disaster. RL retouched an ad campaign w/ Filippa that managed to make her waist a good ten cm, and which outraged and tainted the all american label.

Daria on Vogue Russia ...

Daria Werbowy is the next supermodel rumored to be on the November issue of Vogue Russia ...

Adieu Claudia Schiffer!

Claudia Schiffer has quit the catwalk after 22 years. The 39-year-old said:
"I'm finished with the runway. I won't miss it. I am still modelling and I enjoy that a lot - but no more runways." src
I thought this happened years ago ...

Did You Know ...

Daiane Conterato speaks eight languages?
