Naomi Campbell for YSL fall 2008

July 3, 2008

Ever since word got out that Naomi Campbell was replacing Kate Moss for the face of Yves Saint Laurent we’ve been on pins and needles waiting to see the flawless photos and laughable, inevitable lawsuits filed by bruised and battered assistants.

Unfortunately the latter has not surfaced but a few of the shots from the campaign have.

When Kristin, one of the buyers on the DJ staff, saw the ads her first reaction was to the effortless fabulousness of her “out-of-the-pack weave.”

P.S how many assistants do you think she had solely for her hair?

Get into the fabulousness of the ultimate Diva:

Kate Moss for Just Cavalli

July 1, 2008

When news of Kate Mossrendez-vous with Just Cavalli trickled through the grapevine we couldn’t wait to see the supreme diva in action yet again.

Here are some of the first shots from the fall/winter 2008 ad campaign shot by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin:

These photos capture the essence of “Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll”

Moss is the sex, her guitar strapping counterparts are the rock & roll and the stoic, spaced-out looks on their faces suggest that there may be drug paraphernalia on one of the coffee tables.

This campaign is flawless.

Check out some new items from Just Cavalli:

Cheetah Chiffon Blouse from Just Cavalli

Black Satin Flipped Hem Skirt from Just Cavalli

Leather Ankle Bootie w/ Strap Detailing from Just Cavalli

Teal Patent Leather Clutch with Strap from Just Cavalli

Fashion’s headquarters are primarily in Paris and New York. So when Fashion Week rolls around in these two cities, celebrities dress like their life and career depend on it. Currently the fashion industry has its focus set on Paris for the spring 2009 menswear collections.

One of the top names showing is Louis Vuitton, whose menswear collection is under the direction of Paul Helbers. Hip hop’s biggest fashion icons Pharrell Williams and Kanye West scored invites to the show.

And what did these two decide to wear?

In our opinion, it’s too casual. But could be their personal style?

The Ups and Downs: BET Awards

June 25, 2008

Celebrities came to the BET red carpet with a mission to show out.

You could almost smell who had professional stylists and who just hired a friend from back home who was certain that he reeked of stylishness. Unfortunately the stench for most was unbearable.

Check out the top and the tacky with DJP’s Ups and Downs:

Ups:

We cannot help ourselves, we adore Lil’ Kim. No matter what she wears or how she wears it, her unabashed personality wins us over every time check out the Queen Bee looking pleasantly delusional:

Another up pick for us was Rihanna, whose Giambattista Valli gown from the spring 2008 collection proved to be just as flawless in person as it did on the runway:

Our final UP was the female artist of the year, Alicia Keys, who wasn’t afraid of a little color:

Downs:

Please ladies, when you are going to a big event make sure the weave is patted properly and is looking flawless. We wish we could have relayed the message to Solange Knowles in time. It looks like she took her weave, drenched it in hairspray, and left it out to dry…for months:

The absolute worst of the bunch had to be Ashanti. I’m not sure if it went wrong on the design front, or it the dress just was wrong for her, but it was all wrong:
