"For every two minutes of glamour, there are eight hours of hard work."
-Jessica Savitch

Lara Stone stars in "One Of A Kind" for W Magazine and...well...it don't get more glamorous than this. The hair high as heaven hair and flawless makeup alone is what glamour dreams are made of... And the fashion? Omg...all the greats!! Chanel (my favorite of the spread), Givenchy, Armani, Gaultier, Dior, Francesco Scognamiglio (a utterly divine rubber dress), Versace, Valentino, and Oscar de la Renta... Are they trying to kill me?! I definitely OD'd on glamour and flatlined for a haute minute...

Who’s that Girl?

Poor old Beyonce has got herself in hot water again. After all the hoo haa caused by her (alleged) skin lightening in the L’Oreal Feria ads, she’s done the opposite now and given herself ‘blackface’ for a shoot in the current issue of French magazine L’Officiel.

Beyonce 

The magazine issued this statement: ‘Far from the glamorous Sasha Fierce, the beauty posed for the magazine with amazing fashion designers clothes, but also in a dress created by her mother. [It is] A return to her African roots, as you can see on the picture, on which her face was voluntarily darkened.’

The jury is out still out on this one. Some are crying high fashion, others high racism.

It wasn't all controversial - she looked gorgeous with her usual skin tone too!

Personally, we’re feeling it more as an expression of art or fashion. Blackface was traditionally a practice where white people painted their face black and propagated highly offensive racist stereotypes like the 'happy-go-lucky all singing all dancing darky workin’ on the plantation.’ Do we really think Beyonce had that in mind when she slipped on the couture?













The image below raises some questions though. Blonde haired Dutch supermodel Lara Stone in ‘blackface’ for French Vogue. If they wanted a black model, surely they have Jourdan Dunn or Arlenis Sosa’s number?

Lara Stone’s Vogue Paris February 2011

As they said it would be And then, with words Damien Rice begins to recognize a fashmagazine deja vu. Lara Stone seen from Carine Roitfeld. When I confronted with the type of overused picture, I feel a little hope that Emmanuelle Alt vision would save us from the forehead Bleached Stone in the future. And no, it's not about Lara Stone's full Gucci look on the cover of Vogue Paris, February 2011. There is a cover you like or dislike, there is hardly anyone in between.
