Sexy people on a car in the desert generating enough heat to scorch the sun is the one way to describe the Fall 2010 Gucci ad campaign.  Raquel Zimmermann, Joan Smalls and Nikola Jovanovic turned up the temperature for photographers Mert and Marcus.  The label understood that the only way to sell the fall collection in 100 degree weather was to simulate our current environment.  Now, if only we could all look so impossibly chic in the heat.

Fashion’s Night Out is shaping up to be more extravagant than anyone originally anticipated.  It was recently announced that FNO will host the largest fashion show at Lincoln Center on September 7th.  The show will have over 200 of the fiercest models to walk the runway.  That means we will likely see the original supermodels walk alongside the models of the moment.  Will we see a model walk-off?  Think Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Linda Evangelista walking amongst Raquel Zimmermann, Karlie Kloss, Daria Werbowy and Chanel Iman that’s worth the price of admission.  Well 1500 guests will be privy to this model showdown, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the New York City AIDS Fund.  All the trends for fall will be represented on stage, and we’ll get to see the hottest looks from some of our favorite designers.  You can get tickets at the Lincoln Center box office this summer.

Vogue magazine’s May cover is usually reserved for the top models, and this May will be no different. No celebrities needed this month. Even more interesting is that Liya Kebede and Jourdan Dunn are on the cover and on the inside fold respectively. May marks the third consecutive month that a woman of color appears on the cover of Vogue.  Michelle Obama appeared on the cover in March, Beyonce in April, and now Liya and Jourdan in May.  The cover is pretty fantastic and all the models look beautiful: Natalia Vodianova, Raquel Zimmermann, Isabeli Fontana, Anna Jagodzinska, Lara Stone, Caroline Trentini and Natasha Poly.
