Jimmy Choo for H&M Video Surfaces

Posted by Kathleen Kane Categories: Fashion Designers, Models, News, Sales, Men, Women, Accessories, Footwear

You saw the images of Jimmy Choo’s H&M line. Now you can get a better experience and effect from the collection when you watch the ad campaign, which features Sasha Pivovarova and Edita Vilkeviciute.

Hopefully you’re doing a better job than I am at saving up for the line, which hits stores November 14th in 200 stores across the country. One must also note that, unlike the other lines released on Thursdays, this one comes out on a Saturday (and it’s Jimmy Choo!)... Just sayin’.

Naomi Campbell’s Recession Warning

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories:

Naomi Campbell believes that the recession has stopped black models from getting work. The outspoken supermodel claims advertising executives are shying away from using ethnic minority models in their campaigns because they “don’t dare” risk losing sales.

She told Britain’s Sunday Telegraph, “This year, we have gone back all the way that we had advanced. I don’t see any black woman, or of any other race, in big advertising campaigns.”

Last summer, the 39-year-old beauty appeared in Vogue Italia’s Black Issue, in celebration of black women. Although she was initially positive about the shoot, Naomi is now concerned the ongoing global financial crisis has undone the impact it had.

“That made some noise but, unfortunately, we are the same as before. People, in the panic of recession, don’t dare to put a girl of color in their campaign, full stop,” Campbell said of the issue.

Fashion designer Bruce Oldfield has echoed Naomi’s comments: “It’s absolutely true that black models will not be as popular for advertising companies and magazine covers as white girls.”

Keira Knightley’s Curvy Campaign

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News, Women

Pirates of the Caribbean starlet Keira Knightley‘s breasts have reportedly been digitally-enhanced in her latest campaign for Chanel. The 24-year-old actress - famed for her slender figure—looks decidedly curvier in the advertisements for the French fashion house’s Coco Mademoiselle perfume, in which her chest is covered only by a pair of braces. Her face also looks a lot smoother and airbrushing expert Chris Bickmore claims Keira’s appearance has definitely been enhanced.

He said: “Her face has definitely been retouched, there are no lines or wrinkles at all. The whites in her eyes have been made a cleaner white and there are no lines on her neck, body or even the back of her hand where there would definitely be some detail. Her breasts has had some shading added to it to give it the effect of being rounder and more pert and it has also been increased in size slightly.”
