dom pérignon pays homage to supermodel breast

My posts of late have been rife with boobs and naked people - my traffic from Google search is going to soar! Wine Spectator reports that Dom Pérignon has just released a tribute to Claudia Schiffer's bosom. The breast-inspired bowl is the creation of designer Karl Lagerfeld for Moët & Chandon's famous Champagne brand. This artwork was inspired by the dining service made especially for Queen Marie Antoinette in 1787. Legend has it that it was the exact size of one of her breasts, and used, in turn, to model the well-known coupe-shaped Champagne glass. Lagerfeld's offering rests upon a stand comprising three porcelain replicas of Dom Pérignon and a platter bearing the signatures of the designer and his favorite top model. The creation is sold along with a bottle of 1995 Dom Pérignon Oenothèque. Cheers and Happy New Year!

madonna more than moves on..maybe

The Telegraph reports that Madonna began (maybe) dating the 20-year old Brazilian Jesus Luz after he appeared with her in a spread for the upcoming issue of W. Quite an about face from the pasty fellow before him. To echo The Cut - it is times like these we love Madonna.

flares rule for spring

British Vogue declares bell bottom jeans are the it jean for spring - or sort of anyway. New denim styles feature a super-flare with a massive 24-inch width like the Siwy Chloe Jean. Siwy Denim founder and designer Michelle Siwy, says the key for keeping on-trend for spring is to mix things up. No one is going to tell you to toss last year's model in these economic times. Skinnies, straight legs and denim flares - everythig goes for spring. Here is a picture of Katie Holmes sporting a flared pair ahead of the curve in today's People.

american apparel skips soft porn and goes for it

American Apparel's ads have always been suggestive, but not in a sexy, creative way. The ads, often shot by CEO Dov Charney, tend to possess more of a sleazy, Dirk Diggler-ish quality with seemingly underage women in porn-type poses. A new American Apparel advertising campaign featuring professional porn performers is currently running on two blogs - Reverse CowGirl and Debauchette.  Fast Company recently ran a story about Charney and the ads - and the guy attends meetings in his underwear and defends it. Gross! Reverse Cowgirl counters feminist distaste for the ads by suggesting they are not anti--feminist because they were shot by a women photographer. Ah ok - that is a pretty lame defense. Check them out at the websites above and let me know what you think. (Not you Mom).
