Daydreaming

I can't believe what they did to Alessandra Facchinetti. She didn't know she was being replaced! She knew it by the press, it is quite miserable for the team in Valentino. I mean, they planned everything on her back. Her collections for Valentino were quite good, it wasn't necessary to make such a scandal.
I hope Alessandra finds a better job in a more respectable brand.

What Alessandra said:

“It was with deep regret that I learnt from the press that I would no longer be working with Valentino. This news came as a great surprise since the company’s top management has not yet seen fit to inform me of the above.

“I would like to thank Valentino S.p.A. for showing their appreciation of my “creative contribution and my sophisticated talent,” although I deeply regret the fact that this talent and contribution do not seem to have been adequately acknowledged.

“I find it extremely sad that a brand label of the caliber of Valentino, which has made history in the world of fashion, has been the subject of rumors for the past two weeks.

“Despite everything that has happened, I sincerely feel that this experience has empowered me because I know that my work has been deeply appreciated throughout the world. I would like to thank all my co-workers and all those people who have shown me both loyalty and affection.”

Si tuvieras la ocasión de hacerle una sola pregunta a Kate Moss...

Imagínate que un día te la encuentras por la calle de buen humor y te dice que te va a responder con total sinceridad a una pregunta, sólo una.
¿Qué le preguntarías?
Yo le preguntaría que si es todo esto lo que quería para su vida, si realmente es feliz con lo que hace, o que si pudieran concederle un deseo que cuál sería.


Flashes:
Laetitia Casta es la elegida para la campaña de Miu Miu de este invierno... Miuccia no nos deja de impresionar: Maggie Gyllenhaal, Lindsay Lohan, Kim Basinger... ¿a quién le toca este verano?

Daria Werbowy, Gemma Ward y Hilary Rhoda aparecerán en la campaña de Valentino.

Freja Beha seguirá en Chanel.

Anabela Belikova estará en Nina Ricci, Prada y Balenciaga... no está mal, ¿eh?

Cory vs Agyness Deyn...

¿y esos morritos? No poses a lo mary-kate, please.

Alex & Chloe han creado este colgante que cuesta $50,00 aprox con el rostro de Kate Moss... ¿no os recuerda a la editorial en la que aparecía Christy Turlington? ejem...

And the Oscar goes to...

Este año los Óscar en cuanto a vestidos y trajes de los invitados me ha decepcionado un poco...
La que mejor iba en mi opinión era Cameron Díaz, con un vestido blanco de Valentino, joyas de Cartier y zapatos de Brian Atwood. Muy elegante ella.

Y Pe... su vestido no era demasiado bonito que digamos...

En la ceremonia... (de Versace, con joyas de Chopard)

En la after-party
(las borlas esas de cortina sobraban)

se le notaba nerviosa
