it is now evident that sessilee lopez, chanel iman, jourdan dunn, and arlenis sosa pena (some of my favoriteeee models!) were involved in a major fashion shoot in london. there is speculation that this shoot can be for the cover or editorial pages of a vogue magazine, love magazine or for i-D's 300th issue. remember that all black italia magazine from last summer? this can prove to be even as momentous! all of the models involved seem excited and i am too.

PETER COPPING REPLACES OLIVIER THEYSKENS AT NINA RICCI
i'm really going to miss olivier theyskens working at nina ricci. i really liked his clothes and his creative vision. peter copping looks incredibly boring, but hopefully he proves me wrong.

this is his course of action for nina ricci:

�I think it�s a name with a very nice history. I love all the French fashionisms, and Nina Ricci is very much a French house . . . We want to move away from a girl and be more about a woman. I want the clothes to be very tactile, very luxurious � the kind of clothes a woman enjoys wearing, and with attention to detail, which is something I learned at Vuitton.�
