Marc Jacobs in Time Magazine World's Most Influential People

Marc Jacobs was named as one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Time Magazine. When I checked the Time Magazine's website, I was surprised by the story written by Victoria Beckham for her friend, Marc Jacobs. Victoria praised Marc Jacobs for the changes he had made with each of his collection. Marc Jacobs must be very proud because he is the only fashion designed that was included in the list.

Meanwhile, some artists and entertainers like Lady Gaga, Robert Pattinson, Sandra Bullock and Glee‘s Lea Michele were also featured on Time‘s list.

FASHION WEEK MEMORIES A/W 2010

Fashion Week is always a crazy time for everyone involved, especially for the hardworking models whose feet barely touch the ground during the 4 weeks that take them across the Atlantic and around Europe. With so much going on its always fascinating to hear what moments made it a memorable Season for them and MDC caught up with 3 Elite girls to find out just that!

Jacquelyn Jablonski (74 Shows):
One of my most memorable moments from fashion week was from the Gareth Pugh show. I was one of two girls to have the long chain fake nails which required loads of glue to stay on. When the show was over, the manicurist quickly wrapped each of my nails in remover and tinfoil and I flew to the next show on a motorbike. During the ride, the tinfoil was falling off all my fingers and my hands were now frozen. When I got to the next show, everybody from hairstylists to models were trying to get my nails off but nobody could. In the end, I wasn’t able to get them off in time so I had to keep my hands in my pockets for both looks and was left with pieces of chains and chunks of glue stuck to my nails. Although it was super painful… the nails did look pretty cool :).

Sigrid Agren (70 Shows):
When I think about NY, i immediately think about the snow storm! It was the first time I have experienced one. At first I thought it was fun but then as I slipped on the pavement every 5 meters, and as my feet froze, I realized what a nightmare it was!
In London, my driver always drove crazy fast, and the car was so loud! Everybody in the streets would look at us!
My last night in Milan, i had the best plate of pasta at the La Traditzionale restaurant near my hotel with my agent. It felt so nice to sit down, take my time, and turn my phone off!

The best moment for me in Paris was at the Viktor and Rolf show because I had both of my parents, my grandparents (who had come to visit for 2 days) and my brother there, and all of them were in the audience watching

Constance Jablonski (61 Shows):

New York: I moved in my new apartment during the week, Packing at night waking up between boxes and luggage! Moving during fashion week is the worst time.

Milan: I was with a friend we forgot to take an European adapter for our US laptop, and there was only one more adapter left at the shop near the hotel. We had no choice so we traded the adapter every day, he had it during the day, I had it during the night!

Paris: My first meeting with Elle Macpherson at Louis Vuitton, I love her so much I asked her if I could take a picture with her with my Blackberry, but when I tried to look at it later in the day I realized it didn’t save. Such a shame!!

EML...NEXT STOP MANCHESTER!

So confident are we of finding some superstars in Manchester, we’re now going to be casting on SUNDAY 25th in the Trafford Centre too. We’ll be there from 1pm until 6pm on the Sunday (Central Peel Square), as well as 10am – 6pm on the Saturday, so if you think you’ve got what it takes to be Elite’s next top model, then we’d love to meet you!

 The usual EML team will be there as well as experts from Eylure and Toni & Guy to get you catwalk ready. The popular Warehouse Style Studio is the perfect place to practice your model pose in preparation for your catwalk debut and complete your modelling experience. Professional Elite models will also be on hand to show you how it’s done and let you in on some tips of the trade. Looking forward to meeting you there!

CLEAN SWEEP

These summery editorials keep on coming and we LOVE this story featuring Sessilee Lopez in the latest issue of Allure Magazine. Taking on a far softer look then we are used to seeing the fierce Miss Lopez, these chic outfits are a wearable take on the scary all in white trend that resurfaces every summer, brought up to date with some oversized accessories. Sessilee’s relaxed and playful poses are captured by Regan Cameron, who judging by his recent editorial out in UK Vogue with Constance Jablonski is set to be our favourite photographer of the Season!

FROM SHEER TO ETERNITY

We’re delighted to see our very own Constance Jablonski (former EML contestant and new face of Estee Lauder) looking stunning in this month’s Vogue; surf, sand, sheer fabrics and an invitation to escape to the sun! Focusing on two trends, opaques and nudes shot by Regan Cameron and styled by Mirand Almond, Constance’s star quality shines through in this blissful editorial. A timely reminder that we need to be heading to the beach, or at least thinking about
it!

Alexander McQueen's Fall Winter Shoe Collection

Every shoe fanatics would fall in love with Alexander McQueen's Fall/Winter shoe collection! Last season's dramatic 12 inch heeled Armadillo shoes have been replaced by stunning shoes that are more wearable. Alexander McQueen's Fall/Winter shoe collection was inspired by "The Angels and Demons" and include shoes in leather and metallic finishes. You will also see wings, sky-high stilettos, twigs, flowers, feathers and leaves.

I bet these high heeled shoes will become a must-have item by the end of the summer. Alexander McQueen will be greatly missed by the fashion world.
