Current Summer Trend: Neons, black, & whites

noreply@blogger.com (CATWALK PROS) — Sun, 16 Jun 2013 01:35:00 +0000

Summer is all about whites, beiges, and neutral colors galore. But what about adding a touch of neon to the black/white palette we all adore? Blogger, JNELV, creates this cautious concoction with a simple, yet stylish recipe. Always standing out with a splash of neon greens and yellows that help to finish put the look together. Nothing screams summer-time fine like bright colors that attract attention with something more subtle underneath to help balance out the radness. What do you think? Will you be trying out this fashion trend this summer?

Summer is here!

noreply@blogger.com (CATWALK PROS) — Mon, 10 Jun 2013 04:34:00 +0000

Summer's hot heat is perfect to switch up the wardrobe to more lighter materials in clothing and color. What better way to incorporate this than to pair your summer whites, bold prints, and natural colors to complete the perfect outfit. Don't forget to pair your neutral accessories to complete this look into an easy, cool fashion statement. Nothing says summer, like a closet full of clothes ready for summer picnics, gatherings, or just a girls night out on the town.

This week's Daily Duo

noreply@blogger.com (CATWALK PROS) — Thu, 06 Jun 2013 01:44:00 +0000

Featuring this week's newest Daily Duo female model, Karmay, of Chinese ethnicity, but American nationality has been gracefully modeling for only the past year and a half as she was introduced to modeling when asked to be a model for a classmate's school project. Born in California and signed with Esee models, Karmay currently lives in New York where she is trying to make the most of her modeling career. Although she may not have many years of modeling experience behind her belt, she has already had the opportunity to shoot for China and Hong Kong editions of Harpers Bazaar and has walked for designers such as Timo Weiland for fashion week. Even though, she still may be a rookie, her modeling future is looking very, very bright.

Magical Realism featured in the NY Times

noreply@blogger.com (CATWALK PROS) — Sun, 02 Jun 2013 21:41:00 +0000

Benjamin Alexander Huseby uses the beautiful model, Anais Mall, to create a simple yet effortless, chic look centered around cinched waists, unfussy pants and just the right amount of skin. These are key looks, perfect for summer, which are featured in the pages of the NY Times T Magazine. The imagery behind the wardrobe is also so cleverly setup with its lush tropical backdrop and faded colors that add to the magical realism of this elegant summer style. Vanessa Traina's particular sense of styling provides the main fashion focus for Mall's wardrobe. The selection of Givenchy, Christopher Kane and Prada look stunning on Mall and provide the perfect wardrobe for a carefree summer day.

Donna Karen Haitian Exhibition in Miami

noreply@blogger.com (CATWALK PROS) — Mon, 27 May 2013 16:50:00 +0000

The "Discover Haiti Exhibition" is currently running at the Little Haiti Cultural Center and will be ongoing for the next 2 months.
What is the "Discover Haiti Exhibition"?
It all started with Donna Karen appropriately flashing a handbag of hers that is as unique as the well-known designer herself. What makes it special is the material it is made of, paper-mache; the handbag represents Haiti's handmade carnival masks. The Little Haiti Cultural Center exhibition is full of art, accessories, and furnishings especially crafted by Haitian artisans. These creations are then sold by Karen's Urban Zen Foundation. Karen started this foundation after the death of her husband in 2001. She then focused the exhibition on Haitian culture after the earthquake a few years later.
"She understands what we as a people, what we as a government, want to do with our art: show the world the riches of Haiti and commercialize it," said Haiti's consul general in Miami, Francois Guillaume. "But, we don't want to lose our identity. We don't want to lose whatever it is that makes Donna Karan like Haiti that much."

Naomi Campbell 40 plus and fabulous…Age is nothing but a number!!

Her story from Wikipedia

Naomi Campbell (born 22 May 1970) is a British supermodel. Discovered at the age of 15, she established herself among the top three most recognizable and in-demand models of the late 1980s and 1990s, and she was one of six models of her generation declared "supermodels" by the fashion world. Her personal life is widely reported, particularly her relationships with prominent men—including boxer Mike Tyson, Badr Jafar and actor Robert De Niro—and several highly-publicized convictions for assault.

Early life

Campbell was born in Streatham, South London, the daughter of Jamaican-born dancer Valerie Morris. In accordance with her mother's wishes, Campbell has never met her father, who abandoned her mother when she was four months pregnant, and who went unnamed on her birth certificate. She took on the surname Campbell from her mother's second marriage. Her half-brother, Pierre, was born in 1986. Campbell is of Afro-Jamaican descent, as well as of Chinese Jamaican ancestry through her paternal grandmother, who carried the family name Ming.

During her early years, Campbell lived in Rome, where her mother worked as a modern dancer. Following their return to London, she was left in the care of her maternal grandmother, Ruby, while her mother travelled across Europe with the dance troupe Fantastica. At five years old, Campbell was enrolled at the Barbara Speake Stage School,and at the age of ten, she was accepted into the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts, where she studied ballet.^[6]

Career

1978–1989

Campbell's first public appearance came at the age of seven, in 1978, when she was featured in the music video for Bob Marley's "Is This Love". That same year, she played Snow White in two episodes of the Children's Film Foundation television series The Chiffy Kids. At the age of twelve, she tap-danced in the music video for Culture Club's "I'll Tumble 4 Ya".

In 1986, Campbell was scouted by Beth Boldt, head of the Synchro model agency, while window-shopping in Covent Garden.^[11] Her career quickly took off—in April, just before her sixteenth birthday, she appeared on the cover of British Elle. Over the next few years, Campbell's success grew steadily: she walked the runway for such designers as Gianni Versace, Azzedine Alaïa, and Isaac Mizrahi, and posed for such photographers as Peter Lindbergh, Herb Ritts, and Bruce Weber.By the late 1980s, Campbell was part of a trio of models—the others being Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista—known as the "Trinity", who became the most recognizable and in-demand models of their generation.

When faced with discrimination, Campbell received support from her friends; she later quoted Turlington and Evangelista as telling Dolce & Gabbana, "If you don't use Naomi, you don't get us."In December 1987, she appeared on the cover of British Vogue, as that publication's first black cover girl since 1966.In August 1988, she became the first black model to appear on the cover of French Vogue,after her friend and mentor, designer Yves St. Laurent, threatened to withdraw his advertising from the magazine if it continued to refuse to place black models on its cover. The following year, she appeared on the cover of American Vogue, which marked the first time a black model graced the front of the September issue, traditionally the year's biggest and most important issue.

1990–2008

In January 1990, Campbell, who was declared "the reigning mega model of them all" by Interview, appeared with Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, and Tatjana Patitz on an iconic cover of British Vogue, shot by Peter Lindbergh. The group was subsequently cast to star in the music video for George Michael's "Freedom! '90". By then, Campbell—along with Turlington, Evangelista, Crawford, and Claudia Schiffer—formed an elite group of models declared "supermodels" by the fashion industry. With the addition of newcomer Kate Moss, they were collectively known as the "Big Six".

In March 1991, in a defining moment of the so-called supermodel era, Campbell walked the runway for Versace with Turlington, Evangelista, and Crawford, arm-in-arm and lip-synching the words to "Freedom! '90". Later that year, she starred as Michael Jackson's love interest in the music video for "In the Closet". In April 1992, she posed with several other top models for the hundredth-anniversary cover of American Vogue, shot by Patrick Demarchelier. That same year, she appeared in Madonna's controversial book Sex, in a set of nude photos with Madonna and rapper Big Daddy Kane.

In 1993, Campbell twice appeared on the cover of American Vogue; in April, alongside Christy Turlington, Claudia Schiffer, Stephanie Seymour, and Helena Christensen, and again, solo, in June. She famously fell on the runway in Vivienne Westwood's foot-high platform shoes, which were later displayed at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Despite her success, however, Elite Model Management, which had represented Campbell since 1987, fired her in September, on the grounds that "no amount of money or prestige could further justify the abuse" to staff and clients. Elite founder John Casablancas described her as "manipulative, scheming, rude, and impossible."

In the mid-1990s, Campbell branched out into other areas of the entertainment industry. Her novel Swan, about a supermodel dealing with blackmail, was released in 1994 to poor reviews.It was ghostwritten by Caroline Upcher, with Campbell explaining that she "just did not have the time to sit down and write a book." That same year, Campbell released her album babywoman, named after designer Rifat Ozbek's nickname for her. A critical and commercial failure,the album produced the single "Love and Tears", which reached No. 40 on the UK charts. In 1995, Campbell and fellow models Claudia Schiffer and Elle Macpherson invested in an ill-fated chain of restaurants called the Fashion Cafe. Campbell also attempted an acting career: she had small roles in Miami Rhapsody and Spike Lee's Girl 6, as well as a recurring role on the second season of New York Undercover.

In 1998, Time declared the end of the supermodel era.By then, Campbell had mostly retired from the runway,but she continued print modeling. In 1999, she signed her first cosmetics contract with Cosmopolitan Cosmetics, a division of Wella, through which she launched several signature fragrances. In November of that year, she posed with twelve other top models for the "Modern Muses" cover of the Millennium Issue of American Vogue, shot by Annie Leibovitz. The following month, she appeared in a white string bikini and furs on the cover of Playboy. In October 2001, she appeared with rapper Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs on the cover of British Vogue, with the headline "Naomi and Puff: The Ultimate Power Duo"

After more than two decades as a model, Campbell was still in demand. In 2007, she walked the runway for Dior's sixtieth-anniversary fashion show at Versailles. In July 2008, she appeared with fellow black models Liya Kebede, Sessilee Lopez, and Jourdan Dunn on the gatefold cover of a landmark all-black issue of Italian Vogue, shot by Steven Meisel. In September of that year, Campbell reunited with Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, and Stephanie Seymour for "A League of Their Own", a Vanity Fair feature on the supermodel legacy.

2010–present

Campbell appeared with Liya Kebede and Iman on the cover of the fortieth-anniversary issue of Essence. The following year, she posed while bound and gagged for the September cover of Spanish V, an homage to director Pedro Almodovar. Also in 2011, Campbell starred as Duran Duran front man Simon Le Bon in the band's music video for "Girl Panic!", with Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen, Eva Herzigova, and Yasmin Le Bon portraying the other band members; they appeared on the November cover of British Harper's Bazaar with the headline "The Supers vs. Duran Duran".

Campbell appeared with Kate Moss and performed in the closing ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games on 12 August 2012.Naomi is one of three coach/judges (along with Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha) of the 2013 Oxygen network reality show The Face hosted by photographer Nigel Barker.
