Gisele Glow
A few photos of Gisele Bündchen’s Salvatore Ferragamo Spring ‘12 ad campaign debuted at the end of December, but this morning the label released more images with the Brazilian beauty standing alongside model Noah Mills.

E-Commerce, A Ferragamo First
“Ferragamo was my first big international campaign when I started modeling,” Elettra Wiedemann tells Style.com. “The house has always had special meaning for me.”This week, she returns to the fold, serving as the exclusive model for the label’s online Fall 2011 trunk show, which marks the first time the Italian brand’s ready-to-wear offerings will be [...]
On Our Radar: Aquazzura
Edgardo Osorio, the designer behind the new shoe collection Aquazzura, knows the luxury market. He’s spent ten years working with Salvatore Ferragamo, René Caovilla, and Roberto Cavalli, where most recently he’s been directing all of the label’s shoes, on and off the runway.

Yea, Nay, Or Eh? Kristen Bell In Bloom
The look in Burlesque may be all rhinestones, all the time—thanks to a little help from Swarovski, of course—but the look at Burlesque’s London premiere was a hint more demure. Cher may have gone all-out for the London carpet with a bright orange wig and lacy, black Julien MacDonald, but co-star Kristen Bell played a [...]
John Legend Mulls A Life Of Design
It seems Kanye West may have some competition in the male-musician-with-a-knack-for-finer-threads department. “Sometimes, I think about it,” John Legend said last night when queried about starting his own fashion or accessories line. “I would probably do clothes first.” The singer-songwriter was a guest of honor at a party celebrating the launch of Ferragamo World, an [...]

Daphne’s Scent, Jude’s Love Child, And More…
Daphne Guinness, in collaboration with Comme des Garçons, is bringing her signature scent to Maxfield and Barneys. It’s got a “woodsy and kind of jasmine-y, tuberose-y sort of thing” going on. [WWD]
