cover it up.)

as contestants prepared to fly to Panama to prepare for the June

Miss Universe 2003 Oxana Federova, was stripped of her title less
than four months into her reign because she refused to complete
her duties.

Ed Burns and Christy Turlington set a date
World
Entertainment News Network
Ed
Burns and Christy Turlington have finally set a date for their much-delayed
wedding. The couple were originally supposed to wed in October 2001
- but postponed their nuptials due to the September 11 terrorist
attacks. Ed Burns was then seen on a date with model Esther Canadas
shortly afterwards, but the reconciled couple are ready to marry
again according to friends. One says, "They're planning a June
wedding and it will be in the US."

World
Entertainment News Network
Claudia
Schiffer and her young son are recovering after they were involved
in a car crash in London yesterday. The German beauty and three-month-old
Caspar were traveling in a Range Rover when the incident happened
in west London. Both were unhurt. Also in the car was her husband,
film producer Matthew Vaughn, whom she married last summer. Their
car was being driven by Claudia's assistant when they hit another
vehicle. No one was hurt in the incident.

WWD: Celebrated fashion photographer Patrick Demarchelier

2004. Rumor has it that he may return to Conde Nast to become a
fixture at Vanity Fair.

About Caroline R.'s pregnancy
Caroline had the baby, than she had a miscarriage.
There's still a doctor checking over her, it will take a while before
she gets pregnant again, for safety and health reasons.
Brazil site sources mentioned at Fashist!Forum:
(Portuguese)
"Bebê a bordo
Caroline
Ribeiro está que é pura alegria... E o motivo não
podia ser melhor: a top está grávida de novo. Pra
quem não lembra, Carol teve um aborto espontâneo no
início do ano que, é claro, a deixou super jururu.
Mas a cegonha está a caminho. E para curtir sua gravidez
na mais completa tranqüilidade, ao lado do maridão Paulo
Lourenço, a modelo pretende dar um tempo na carreira e passar
os nove meses em São Paulo, descansando. "

(Smart move. Now China, if there

have to move into. A
French Economic Instituion recently predicted, China by 2050,
would be the largest consumer economy, followed by the US, with
the EU trailing far behind (even farther if it doesn't absorb 30
million more Muslims and North Africans, and also add Russia, and
other European states, Turkey and North African states into the
EU, by then)).

Back
from my trip to London. Always a nice time there.
Lots
going on at Selfridge. The body is the big focus in London. Rankin
was in town and his controversial views on digital photography editing.
And he has a new book. Naked girls he fancied. Guy Bourdin gallery
at V&A. McQueen threw a party. Tatu was in town, but had their
concert canceled for lack of ticket sales. So instead the redhead
one picked up some guy (there goes the gimmick).
Brits
are getting sick of reality TV (they have shows on the dullest real
life occupations. Talk about cheap TV). Red Ken bashed Bush. Tony
is fighting his Chancellor over who is the real boss. Ian-Duncan
won big in local elections.
Nobu
London was disappointing (Milan's is way better). I missed my reservation
at Spoon (Couldn't wait. Had to eat earlier). Impossible to get
a reservation at The Ivy. Todd Shoes are easily the best fitting
shoes I have ever gotten. Calvin Klein store on Bond, looks to be
shutting down? I'm jumping to conclusions here. Just.. it's bottom
floor was sealed off. Everything was on sale. Or maybe that's how
it operates? The zoo has way too many birds!
I'll
try to do my planned update for the end of April. I might have to
pass on that. And trying to catch up on the stuff that went on in
the first 3rd of May. Hopefully you've been reading the forums.
Lots of reviews while I was gone. Xtina got fat. Fernanda went animal
crazy. Suzy Parker died. Vogue fashion awards are no more (like
it mattered). FV (of the Fashist!Forum) gained a groupie.
I'll
try to get updates back up and going. Big apology to the web sites
waiting to get announced. They will. Give me time please. Cendres
(Models and Mags fame) has a new review
site. I better hurry and get my reviews section back up (I know,
I know..).
Here's
a review of UK
Vogue June 2003. I also mention a bit of some London stuff.
I'll try to get in more details with the Rankin and Selfridge stuff,
later.
