Oh how the world spins and the hiss thins.. It seems every last bit of goss here gets picked up and amplified faster than the speed of scandal. Like just seconds ago I was prepping a post in anticipation of picking up the image of a impending new cover. The image you see would have been the scoop. Seems TI jumped the gun . Apologies all around . But we will not abandon the cause. The next challenge for The Squad is to decipher that previously buzzed Vogue Paris cover event. The issue is said to be "very French" as in defiantly so. Two very French models were booked. One who for years was an iconic face for a venerable designer, the other a tremendously beautiful girl who rose to a more mass market kind of stardom. Will it be both? The one? The other? In any case it seems the directional kids have grown tired of those damn anonymous editorial faces. In a very sustained way. Which brings us to that All American editorial beauty who is about to enter paparazzi heaven. Smart girl. She knows the future is not celebrity vs model, but rather "the-model-as-celebrity". It can be done! It can be done!
Hiss Squad!
What does the hiss squad know about today's Dior Cruise show in NYC? Theme, models, whatever....the time it starts? ;)
Hilary Rhoda
What about Hilary Rhoda?
But what could Hils be doing
But what could Hils be doing to "enter paparazzi heaven"? She has that EL contract, but otherwise she keeps a pretty low profile. You don't get any attention from the media or general public just for modeling these days, and she ain't no Laura Hollins. So unless she's dating someone very famous...?
girls
i was thinkin maybe it could be Carla Bruni and Laetitia Casta ? no ? it could be so cool !! france first lady with the other french symbol !!! or Virginie Ledoyen no ? oh or maybe Lou Doillon ! she's becomin so major
oh well let's wait !! but please wayne tell us soon !!! merci merci beaucoup
ray from wherethelightsend !!
cover/icon
It's got to be Ines de la Fressange, probably with Casta, though I agree, Morgane would be a better match. Or Marnay
btw, notice how all the Vogue's have been bandying the word 'ICON" on their covers? Every month it's Icon this, Iconic that. Vogue Italia esp.
Morgane!
Oh God I hope it's Morgane Dubled/Viva you are talking about! She is so underrated and had like 3 eds in Paris Vogue while being the top French model for seasons. Carine better recognise! However, I have a feeling it's not her...it must be Laetitia Casta.
A Riddle of Numerous Implications
Every so often when I read your blog, I feel like I'm watching an old Batman rerun and I'm reading one of the Riddler's lines. I have no idea what you're talking about here but I love you anyway! Heavens, I haven't even figured out some of your past hisses. Like, what is really going on with that all-black issue of VI? What is Linda E really up to? Wayne, I can't imagine the fashion world without your online presence. You make it all fun.
"Faster than the speed of scandal." I love it.
LOL. Thanks...
I'm sorry if sometimes the hints on here get so...convoluted..its just that I think rumor and buzz is a big part of keeping fashion exciting but at the same time you don't want to spoil the suspense the magazines maintain. And you don't want to print information that is totally off. So I try to walk a fine line...over thin ice...bear with me.
One Love

LOL
TI, you're the best. Along with the fun and suspense, you also have a good heart. Hmmm. "The heart and soul of online fashion". That's YOU. =)
All-American Beauty
Do you mean Ali Michael's upcoming appearance on the Today show?
