The Great Pretender

The amazing Natalia Vodianova kills it (as always) for US Vogue... She portrays some of the most famous models of this century. Her usual iconic beauty is startlingly chameleon-like in this. My fave shots - and naturally original models - are Penelope Tree, Twiggy, Lauren Hutton (sent that one to Mama - she loved it) and Varuschka - in one of those STUNNING white paper rose bonnets from Chanel's Spring 09 Couture collection.

Best Of The Best of The Brits

Fashionologie has the twelve covers that i-D is doing for their March Best of British issue. They used twelves iconic British faces - past and present - for the issue. My faves are Kate, Lily D, Alice Dellal and Twiggy:

The other cover stars are Aggy, Daisy Lowe, Eliza Cummings, Jourdan Dunn, Naomi Campbell, Stella Tennant, Susie Bick and Yasmin Le Bon.

"The confirmations were instant — it was about doing something for England, and models have been so faceless — British models always have personality."
