Andrej Pejić: What a beautiful boy or girl

Meet Andrej, the Serbian-born, Australian-raised beauty, who just turned twenty last week. He's the the hottest runway model of the moment with his statuesque figure and impossibly small waistband.



In a recent interview with New York Magazine, he claimed, ""I want to make that clear to America. This is a new age of androgynous supermodels. We don't get out of bed for less than $50 a day." Read the rest of the interview here.



From Neil Barret and Paul Smith menswear to Jean Paul Gaultier womenswear. He's so beautiful, with his gentle eyes he's one of the very few beautiful creatures who's destined to work both sides of the runway.







He appeared in last year's Vogue Paris September issue, in Rive Gauche et Libre, shot by Mert & Marcus.





“In this society, if a man is called a woman, that’s the biggest insult he could get. Is that because women are considered something less? I know people want me to sort of defend myself, to sit here and be like, ‘I’m a boy, but I wear makeup sometimes.’ But, you know, to me, it doesn’t really matter. I don’t really have that sort of strong gender identity—I identify as what I am. The fact that people are using it for creative or marketing purposes, it’s just kind of like having a skill and using it to earn money.” - Andrej.

Selena and Beyoncé rock the VMA red carpet

I woke up to twitter streams of Beyoncé announcing she was pregnant with her first child. She looked radiant in her tangerine Lanvin flowy maxi dress from Fall 2011. Loving how she paired it with those huge emerald rocks on her finger and her arms. What a beautiful mom-to-be. Congratulations.





The gorgeous 19 year old host of the night, Selena Gomez was wearing a black lace Julien MacDonald gown with asymmetrical hem. Actually I think her gold shoes here are a little off. She could have opted for a pair of black Louboutin strass Pigalili. Oh that will be lovely.

The Givenchy feline fantasy

Something to obsess over this season, all things Givenchy. When I looked at these images, I just couldn't get them out of my head. This is surreal, look at the mix of dark and vivid colors, sheer ensemble, the big hair, wrecked cars and those Rottweilers. I mean how can anyone manage to think these all would go together so intriguingly beautiful.





Moving on, in case you haven't seen it yet, here is Givenchy's latest feline themed campaign in the making.



Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, Mariacarla Boscono, Natalia Vodianova, Naomi Campbell and Kristen McMenamy sit on embellished Givenchy cushions and roar fashionably. Question now, can we buy those cushions too?







"If for the man the Rottweiler print is a king, for the woman it is the black panther which is in favour mixed with cat ears and a mauve orchid print." I've been telling people that for me, this season is about Givenchy, I think I'm really starting to get over the Céline phase. Anyway, look at these details from the runway.













The most iconic accessories of the season is indeed no other than the cat cap and the angular acetate panther glasses. The wool cap is available in Aubergine and Black, each goes for €1755 at Collette. Glasses are available in yellow, charcoal, plum, navy hues priced at US$574 each. If you like more bold and extravagant version, you can opt for trimmed version sporting black fur on the frame with a panther on each temple piece at a near US$640. Panthers glasses will be available in stores in September 2011. Boys can have dog ears, which is equally fierce. Okay last thing is the Panther belt here.









Here's for the boys. I saw it on display at their boutique in Paragon this evening so please quickly grab it before it's all gone.

Karl Lagerfeld x Carine Roitfeld for Interview

Kaiser Karl and Carine at their best, discussing about photographs, styling and how Carine manage to be the person she is now, you won't give this interview a miss.



LAGERFELD: Your photos are erotic. I want to ask you: How did you come to be the stylist you are?

ROITFELD: It's because of the encounter. There are people who give you the confidence that you're lacking and once you have confidence, you're free and finally you can let out what's inside of you. I think a lot is due to the encounters I've had.

LAGERFELD: For example, when you were with Tom [Ford], Mario [Testino] wasn't very well-known yet. It speaks to what you did with Mario that made him so famous.

ROITFELD: Yes, but Mario helped me with other things. Maybe I helped him.

LAGERFELD: It doesn't go one way.

ROITFELD: No, I helped him understand what a woman is, how she closes her legs, how she feels on high heels, how she wants to pull at her T-shirt and skirt . . . And Mario taught me to speak better English, which I was doing badly at the time. [laughs] He also gave me confidence. When you have confidence, when you feel loved by people, you can tell them the truth. It's important that I can say the photo isn't beautiful or the photo shoot sucks.







ROITFELD: I am better at mixing things, and I think that life has brought a lot to fashion, and fashion brings plenty to life. I took my children on photo shoots—they have professional connections in fashion—and, at the same time, I borrowed my father's sweater for a photo shoot and, then, I am inspired by a Russian princess because of my Russian roots. Everything is all mixed in together.





LAGERFELD: Where in your life and achievements do you place fashion? Is it extremely important to you?

ROITFELD: Yes, it's very important. To live, to exist, to work, it's very important.

LAGERFELD: I think it's crucial to say that. You actually are what you seem to be. You match your brand, your image; you fit in with your universe, your world.

ROITFELD: I think, in many ways, certain people sought me out maybe because they liked my body language or they liked the way I wore a slit skirt, the way I cross my legs or carry my purse. It's quite inspiring to play the seduction card—



To sum up, both don't surf the internet, have fake Facebook and Twitter account, and know enough people. Karl to Carine, "We're happy with the people we know, right."

Something blue

I was so in love with the Jil Sander Spring look, therefore when I saw this ball-gown skirt at Tangs, I purchased it immediately. It was really pretty so I made the effort to book a restaurant to do a shoot. It was worth the time and energy, because I ended up beyond satisfied with the results. The entire restaurant interior has a retro vibe, and plus the walls are painted light blue, which is the right tone for the outfit here. So I hope you enjoy what we've come up with. I'm so proud of my two super-talented photographers Liem Emilia and Stephanie Sasmita. I had a great time during the shoot, and can't wait to do another collab soon. Get ready, scroll down and enjoy. Don't forget to tell me what you think. Share your thoughts, post some comments.
