Coming as a shock to no one, or at least not us, Lana Del Rey‘s face (and bod) has been signed with Next Models. Joining a roster shared by the likes of Karlie Kloss, Alexa Chung, and Arizona Muse, the agency will likely be handling all of her upcoming campaigns. Whilst we’ve only been able to gaze at her in a fake Prada ad thusfar, we’re sure Miu Miu and Marc Jacobs aren’t far behind. We’ll just say we saw her when.

Just weeks after banning Dakota Fanning’s ad for Marc Jacobs’ Oh Lola! fragrance because they decided it sexualized children, the British Advertising Standards Agency is now claiming that one of Hailee Steinfeld’s Miu Miu ads is “irresponsible because it depicts a child in an unsafe location.”
The ad in question was shot by Bruce Weber and features Steinfeld sitting on train tracks, which clearly looks staged to evoke her gun-slinging Mattie Ross in True Grit. Seeing as most publications will be moving on to Spring 2012 adverts with their next issues, we’re not exactly sure where the complaint will lead, but it’s safe to say that it’s got the industry riled up over a whole lot of nothing.
With all of the recent controversy over Steinfeld’s and Fanning’s ads and Vogue Paris’s editorial featuring 10-year-old model Thylane Loubry Blondeau this past July, we wonder whether hiring younger models will become out-moded. With Miu Miu’s recent revealing 34-year-old Guinevere Van Seenus as the star of their new campaign, it’s a possibility.

Meow! From United Bamboo’s conceptual calendar to Miu Miu and Victoria Beckham’s must-have kitty prints, cats are a trend that continue to infiltrate the fashion industry. So when Toronto-based advertising agency John St. released their “catvertising” video this week, we were on board—assuming, of course, that this means more fashion and feline collaborations are in the works.
Torontoist stopped by the John St. offices and has the full scoop on the video’s creation, as well as where, exactly, all those cats came from. Read on »

We’ve all spent time playing dress-up in our mothers’ best dresses and heels, but photos of 10-year-old model Thylane Loubry Blondeau dressed and made-up like a lady in Vogue Paris have got critics in an uproar.
Though the editorial was published months ago, it has only been getting negative attention on our side of the pond recently. Good Morning America aired a segment about the sexualization of young girls, using Loubry Blondeau as a prime example. Since then, the corresponding headlines have been dubbing the photos sexually inappropriate and shocking while blaming everyone, from the magazine to the fashion industry as a whole to Loubry Blondeau’s parents.
While famous models like Kate Moss and Gisele Bündchen started their careers by the time they were only 14, they were always portrayed as adults. Even 13-year-old Elle Fanning’s Marc Jacobs campaign and 14-year-old Hailee Steinfeld’s Miu Miu campaign portray them as older and less sexual. What doesn’t sit well with critics is that Loubry Blondeau looks overly suggestive and—above all—undoubtedly like a child.
Is this media backlash refreshingly appropriate, or are critics just looking for a way to brutalize artistic liberties that they don’t understand? Everyone seems to be holding different opinions, but as the French would say, “C’est la vie!”

In behind the racks and rows of samples at Sears’ Toronto HQ on Thursday, Canadian press descended on Katy Perry, who was holding court for the launch of her first fragrance, Purr (from $36, exclusively in Canada at the department store) the juicy fragrance is a rich mix of fruity, clean and musky notes. Having played a concert the evening before and set to perform a free show later that afternoon at Yonge-Dundas Square, her look for her meet-and-greet was considerably more toned down than the fantastical costumes she dances around in on stage. Perry donned a demure Dior lilac dress with a matching twinset cardigan, and bow-topped, platform peep-toe Miu Mius. Showing the playful side that’s become her signature, she channeled her fragrance’s cat-shaped bottle with a lacy kitty-ear headband she picked up at Colette in Paris, by milliner Maison Michel, atop a brand new gingery ‘do. Amidst the hullabaloo, we quizzed the singer on the fragrance-making process. She dished on those bygone years of ditching the boyfriend’s place to go home and clean up. The former FASHION cover girl was, what else, purr-fectly charming.

While at a barbeque celebrating young Canadians last night in Ottawa, Kate turned to her favourite label, Issa, for her third dress of the day: a casual black wrap dress with what looks like polka dots but is actually tiny little birds! A hint of Miu Miu Spring 2010, don’t you think? Simple low espadrille slingback wedges were a must for a long night of greeting over a hundred people.
