Fresh Face- Nate Gill

Nate Gill is a rising star. Noah started with a shoot with one MosaMuse's fave photographers, Bruce Weber, on the Abercrombie and Fitch set. Bruce photographed him again for a V editorial with Beyonce. He went on to walk major runways and was called on by GQ to shoot an editorial, twice. Hes known for his abs, body and lips. I'm interested in seeing how his look changes as he gets older and if he can transform from boy cute to sexy. We will keep you posted.

Update- Jean Paul Gaultier and Hermes Split

It has been announced that designer Jean Paul Gaultier will no longer be designing for Hermes. Hermes will keep their 45% shares of Jean Paul Gaultier's label, and the designer himself will focus more attention on his own designs. Gaultier had a 7 year run with the company and many believe its a good one. Christophe Lemaire will take his place. I'm excited to see what Lemaire has for us.

Movie Night

MosaMuse finally had enough time to catch up on the latest films. One that we let slip through the crack was The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Model Lily Cole did an amazing job as the star aside of Heath Ledger. Lily was discovered when she was walking through Covent Garden in London. Her first shoot was with Steven Miesel for Italian Vogue. She has appeared in campaigns for Prada, Moschino, Tiffany's and Max Studio. Shes a favorite on the couture runways and has appeared on numerous covers including W, i-D, Vogue, Bazaar and Dazed and Confused. She made her film debut under director Marilyn Manson in Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll. She told W magazine that she never wants to sever ties with the fashion industry but her heart is in film. We hope she manages a way to do both.

Model Turned Boutique Owner

A MosaMuse favorite model, Chanel Iman, has recent set up shop in LA. She created a Red Bag Boutique with her mother and it holds new and vintage pieces. Refinery29 was first to break the news to the internet, and we are glad that they did. This boutique she be packed based on Chanel's celeb appeal and her access to exclusive designs. We are considering making a trip from NY to LA just for this boutique.

Product Junkie- Gold Studded

Christian Louboutins create these gold studded sneakers. I don't think that they are as hot as the Freddy Flats but paired with dark denim and a basic tank these can be amazing. I like that Louboutins are creating designs for high street style.

Collision- Absolut Vodka + Spike Lee

Spike Lee teamed up with Absolut Vodka to create a limited edition vodka bottle. This should be a hit in BK bars and lounges. Absolut Vodka is donation $50,000 of the proceeds to Habitat for Humanity's effort to build homes in Brooklyn. The vodka has a flavor of apples and ginger. I'm not advocating drinking, just wanted to give you a heads up on a new Spike Lee Joint.

Collision- Phone + Fashion

Fashion can't be out done by tech geeks. Versace stepped into the cell phone arena with its "Unique" phone. The screen is sapphire crystal (oooohhh aaahhh). And it even has a camera! I guess the flop of the Prada Phone wasn't warning enough. But die hard Versace fans and label whores across the globe now have a phone to call there own. Enjoy.

Saturday Stroll- United Nude

Check out this new place that opened on Bond Street. United Nude opened the doors of their NY flagship today. Not only is the display hot, but there is also a lambo parked in the middle of the store. Beat that Diesel. Finally, a place where trendy, sexy, classy and cool all collide.

Fresh Face- Charlene Almarez

Newcomer Charlene Almarez was born in the Phillipines in 1994. She was a runner up in a Ford Competition and soon after signed with Ford. She has already walked for DVF, Lacoste and Peter Som. She made her editorial debut in V magazine photographed by Richard Burbridge. She has a very fresh look and she looks like she can easily be transformed to fit any character. I'm interested in seeing if she can take off. So far, I'm convinced.

Well Wishes- Noemie Lenoir

French Model Noemie Lenior, most known outside the fashion industry for her role in Rush Hour 3, was taken to the hospital after an apparent suicide attempt. She had her name caught up in too much speculation of being involved with a million playboy who is also out on bail on a rape charge. This is a pretty sad situation, and Noemie has been questioned and released by officials. She attempted to take her life with a deadly mix of cocktails and alcohol. MosaMuse wishes the mother of one a safe recovery, and I hope this plays as an example to young women. Lesson learned?

Spotlight- Mimi Roche

Mimi Roche was born in Texas in 1983. She began her career on a Marc by Marc Jacobs runway. She went on to walk to Gucci, Fendi, Derek Lam, Fendi and Stella McCartney shows. She then was hired for more edgier shows like DSquared, McQuenn and Westwood. Her career had major steam between 2006 and 2007, but we havent gotten the opportunity to hear much from her since. Her look was not ultra commercial but she did have appeal. The shorter her hair was the more high fashion she looked. I'm interested in seeing if she begins to pop up again and how she will be transformed.

Product Junkie- Rescue Remedy

Too stressed at your 9-5 to handle your 7-12? Try out Bach's Rescue Remedy. I was given this product as a gift (and a hint) because I was becoming too stressed. You place 4 drops in your water and sip the stress away. Bach's Rescue Remedy is an all natural stress reliever made from flowers. Check it out and chill yourself out.

Collision- John Galliano + Time

John Galliano came out with a new timepiece. It's his second watch design, and I love it. The watch is a perfect representation of him as a designer, and definitely something to put on your wishlist.

Model of The Season- Sessilee Lopez

No one can touch this girl. Beyond being a pretty girl, her features are interesting! A change of her hair changes her complete look. I love that shes moldable and she doesn't just have the one look we can always expect her for. She listed her interests as reading the Bible and listening to Lauryn Hill.... my kind of girl! She is the model of the season, and probably the model of the next. If shes on a cover, its sold!

Shout Out- MIA

I had to post this pic because MIA looks so cute. SHes standing with Zoe Kravitz and Alexander Wang at the MET. I'm still waiting for Zoe to get a break out role or become an amazing designer. I'm not feeling the 'stylist' thing... too typical. I think she has major potential to do something stand out. Let's stay tuned...

Collision-Diddy Style

Diddy's new label has inked a deal with Macys! Sean John's new sportswear label will be sold exclusively at Macy's. The collection will include sport shirts, tops, t-shirts, denim, vests and outerwear. This is a huge step for the label that was losing sales due to construction outside of his 5th Ave store. This is a great way for Diddy to reach a market that will spend, and also gives him the new lane to spread throughout Macy's to eventually sell home products. Diddy says he is "humbled".

Did you know Martha Stewart modeled for Chanel("?"). She told Mr. Andre Leon Talley (The Great) she still has the jacket but it no longer fits. You learn something new every day.

Gotta Have it!

This is from design duo Erickson Beamon. I LOVE all their stuff... but this ring is so me. Its a 22 karat gold-plated ring with a fan of swarovski crystals. It retails for $490 and is so delicious! Erickson Beamon is a design team from Detroit. Each piece is made by hand, which makes it worth every dime. They have these new fingertip accessories that are so hot and will be a huge sell.

Pixels- Steven Klein

World renowned photographer Steven Klein is a MosaMuse favorite. He became interested in photography after studying at RISD. Since he is known for his high profile W magazine shoots with A-list celebs. Vogue has Klein as one of their go to photographers as well. What makes him so great is that he does video and photography and he uses both mediums to tell a complete story. Check out his website...its really hot and a real virtual gallery. I would love to see him do a painting, photography and film exhibition for fashion. A fashion house should hire them to do this for their next collection and make it open to the public. (Maybe I should keep these genius ideas to myself?) Maybe not. Do it do it!

Fresh Face- Dafne Cejas

Dafne Cejas is a fresh face out of Argentina. She got her first big break on a Givenchy runway in Paris. She was photographed in Italian Vogue by Steven Klein. She has since signed with Ford. Above is a shot from that shoot. She is known for her bushy brows and pouty lips. She has shot with both blonde and brown hair, and I hope her agency keeps her hair dark from this point forth. So let's see what she has to offer...

MosaMuse Accessories- Beazie Roberts

On the verge of getting engaged and you want to hint at the right ring? Of course you want something worth talking about on your finger (let alone worth wearing until you ask for your 5th yr upgrade). I just stumbled on Beazie Roberts Fine Jewellery and I have to say I'm in LOVE. Instead of a huge rock, why not a beautiful stone that you can notice from across the room. Beazie Roberts began her career as a publicist to the biggest labels and actors in the business. Now she is following her true passion, and I'm following her too!

MIA- Born Free

This is MIA's new video. It was directed by Romain Gavras and is very timely considering everything going on in the world and in Arizona. Hate Kills...[PSA]. It is time that we reevaluate our thinking and the lack of passion we have for politics and the world as a whole. The first step is just to become aware. I can't even ask you to get involved if you don't know what's going on. Lets educated ourselves. People perish through lack of knowledge.
