One Photo, Three Covers.


Vogue's October 2010 cover photo with Carey Mulligan in Chanel couture appeared in 2 other magazine covers, German Glamour December 2010 issue and French Elle November 2011 issue.

It is almost understandable for Vogue and Glamour magazines to be sharing cover photos, since they are both under the same publication company (Conde Nast). But Elle is a whole different company, how was this allowed?

This has happened before when Kate Moss covered the Marie Claire Australia November 2011 issue, in a Chanel Spring 2011 feathered dress. The very same picture appeared on the cover of Vogue Japan 7 months earlier (May 2011) issue (pics below).



It's quite clear that it's not only just South African magazines that copy and paste, This happens everywhere.  Is this their way of tyring to save costs? To me it just looks tacky!!!

One Million Dollar Fragrance



DKNY has collaborated with jewelry designer Martin Katz to design the Gold Delicious fragrance bottle. This one of a kind edition to the company's best selling scent consists of 14 karat yellow and white gold, 183 yellow sapphires, 2700 white diamonds and a 2.43 carat yellow canary diamonds.

The million dollar blinged out apple-shaped bottle has already been to London, Mexico, and Malaysia for reveals, it finally made it's way to New York where supermodel  Chanel Iman showed it off at the DKNY store. The bottle was kept under lock and key in a bullet and fire proof briefcase, and guarded by several bodyguards before the big reveal.

Apparently the net proceeds from the sale will go towards the Action Against Hunger Charity.

Here are a few pics from the reveal:
