Kate Moss: Naomi Campbell: IMG: Vogue Paris Feb 08: via thefashionspot.com

Well it certainly has been a hissy weekend on the NY fashion scene...loose lips at every turn...so to compliment Kate n Naomi's "Bad Girl" Vogue Paris cover, here is TI's latest hiss...Since the 90's The Gap has been drafting NY's hardcore fashion imagists to build up the brand. Rumors are that this season it will actually stage a presentation of the Fall clothing line as envisaged by Karl Templer and Pat McGrath. But who to do the hair? And who will walk the walk? The Gap as the ultimate in democratic American sportwear..TI sees $$$ for that booking !....In the ever shifting dance card that is Prada, seems Craig McDean is lensing something very Pre-Fall sounding for the brand in Milan, right this minute. Is it a resort campaign? Surely its not a look-book? TI adores that veil of mystery that falls over everything Prada at this time of year. Suddenly certain girls disappear off their mother agency websites and their agency cards evaporate into the ether. All in hopes of locking that fitting +"exclusive" gig. It is not only Prada though. The Calvin kids are doing it too. In fact, a sure way to track who's holding those two make-or-break bookings is to make note of any girl who disappears abruptly. (MDC knows of whom we speak) In fact if I were a manager at an agency I'd start hiding girls, even if there was not a single option on their chart, just to create an aura of drama around them. Stay tuned for the 'hidden beauties " sure to premiere at both brands this Feb... Mr. Russell Marsh, the mind behind Prada's world domination of new faces has yet another NY casting gig on his calender....the Johnathan Saunders .... In London however, it looks like the Luella Bartley will see a change-over in casting directors...And while we knew it would happen in Paris, TI was shocked to see Natalia Vodinova in DNA's FW 08 show package. Who can a girl this exclusive walk for on those beige and boring NY catwalks? Marc Jacobs?...Anna Sui?.. DVF, since she is the face of the house this season?...But then what? Let's close our eyes and imagine NV at Donna, or Ralph ...or Calvin. Can't wait to see the final verdict...They also say that we've only just seen the tip of the iceberg of NV's editorial comeback. Seems she's been playing with fashion's most directional photographer in a series of shoots said to be very epic and very...legendary. Stay tuned for the evidence.
