Givenchy Goes Coed

Can you spot what's new in this picture?

Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci is "using a transsexual among the cast for the house’s fall-winter ad campaign", a Brazilian named Lea T.

This is utterly fabulous, I love it. It reminds me of an earlier post where I talked about gender and fashion. That model is beautiful and everyone knows I love gender ambiguity, I'm excited for the new ad campaign!

Little J is for Jealous. I wish I looked as friggin cute as her.

Fun fact: I used to be completely anti-gossip girl. Oh, how things have changed!

The Magnificent Mile

This is the reason why I love having class in downtown Chicago: the ads that fill Magnificent Mile. Commuting can be a pain, but I especially love passing by this Carmen Kass picture (Michael Kors) and the Plaza Escada. I think the photo in the Escada display window is always beautiful, and it's a great way to start my mornings. Holly Golightly had Tiffany's? Well I have the Plaza Escada.
