Model crush: Abbey Lee Kershaw


With a star that shines bright on and off the runway, Abbey Lee Kershaw seems destined for the kind of career that extends beyond fashion. Abbey’s unmistakable platinum tresses and doe-eyes appear in just about every beauty & fragrance ad in search of chic cachet. Brands like Gucci, Calvin Klein and Versace have all fallen for Kershaw’s cool.




In 2007, Kershaw signed with Next Management and by March had moved to New York City. On 11 December, Models.com named her the “Next Superstar”.



Kershaw has starred in the fragrance ads for Gucci's new "Flora" scent since 2008.





Kershaw has 10 piercings in total: on her nose (her left nostril), on the nipple, a pierced belly button, and seven on her ears. She also has various tattoos, including; a small peace sign on the palm of her hand, an owl on her middle finger, the symbol for Gemini on her ankle, and a tattoo reading "truth", hidden on the inside of her bottom lip. She has recently added two on the side of her stomach done in white ink. Kershaw is also an artist who does abstract painting and uses oil pastels.

Model crush: Karlie Kloss


An American beauty originally from Chicago, then from St Louis Missouri, United States. Discovered at a charity fashion show in a mall in St. Louis for a friend who was battling cancer. Now based in NYC, Karlie studied ballet which explains her grace on the runway and her popularity among the designers. Close friends with fellow model Jourdan Dunn and Karmen Pedaru. Has a puppy named Joe.




Just when you think you've got Karlie Kloss figured out the beauty from St. Louis surprises you. When you thought she was just a high fashion princess Karlie comes along and scoops up every money client. When you think she's the cute girl next door she opens up and shows Vogue Italia her sexy, powerful side. Karlie's versatility and endless drive have impressed everyone in the business - you gotta love a girl who can make Anna Wintour smile - and given that clients like Dior, Donna Karan and Oscar de la Renta are clamoring for Ms. Kloss' attention, we're sure to be seeing her around for a long time coming.








She's beautiful, sexy and absolutely charming!



Fashion trends: Kenzo spring/summer 2013


"They have optimism and it's very inclusive. They make fashion fun for everyone. Kenzo is such a fantastic heritage brand and they've injected something new into it - it's so desirable and wearable. And joyful - and that's what fashion is about," said Vogue fashion editor Fran Burns after the show, which was inspired by the vibrant jungles of Asia.






There was a camouflage leopard print in yellow and blue, and it came in orange and green later. Dresses that ran off the shoulder were seriously desirable, effortless and casual and featured throughout the collection. They also cleverly drew on the house's signature style.









At this Paris fashion week Kenzo has showed it's best!
