4 commentsEver gone to a party only to discover that someone else there is wearing the exact same outfit as you? Something of those sorts has happened in the world of fashion glossies recently.
A few days ago The Guardian wrote about how the August editions of arch rivals British Vogue and Elle UK both feature variations of “the same dress” from Miu Miu (it’s not actually the same, just two very similar styles from the same collection). To make matters worse, “the same dress” was also featured on the cover of the July* edition of W magazine.
Several bloggers and newspapers have picked up the story. Today, however, I stumbled upon this blog entry on Stylebrity and guess what dress is featured on the August cover of Elle Sweden…

*I think the article in the Guardian says the August issue of W, but it’s actually the July issue.

No commentsSo glad to see a real model on magazine cover these days instead of those familiar Hollywood faces.
Especially ELLE these days seems only with actress on cover, even more artistic magazines like Vogue and Numero are constantly having non-model covers. Therefore, January issue of ELLE looks ‘fresh face’. I always like Helena Christensen, think she’s the ultimate first model who doesn’t just own a pretty face. She’s an thoughtful photographer,Her exhibition A Quiet Story, curated by Jim Cook, premiered in Rotterdam in 2006. Chanel Tokyo’s NEXUS Gallery is scheduled to mount the exhibition in 2010. Also an edgy boutique owner, Christensen has an antiques shop in Manhattan and sells some of her clothes in her mother’s Yo-Yo Second Hand Shop in Christianshavn. She was a part of Nylon magazine as the original creative director.
Since so many Hollywood actress are continuously branding their ‘cool’ by claiming ‘addiction to sex’, her quote is actually quite amusing…’Whenever my head is like a maze, I turn to the easy things in life, the things that mean the most to me: Sex and cheese. These things are connected. Truth be told, I love all cheese’. Simply brilliant!!!
