From the category archives:
There was a time when Everyone’s Dad bought Playboy for “the stories.”
It was common knowledge that that statement was a lie, back then.
Back then, Everyone’s Dad bought Playboy to see glossy versions of American Corn-Fed Girl’s-Next-Door with their clothes off.
Of course.
What has changed most dramatically is the notion of anyone actually buying a copy of [...]

I am still fuming away to myself, thinking about that idiotic Vogue coverline of yesterday.
The prize one, (”How to get a super model’s body,”) as opposed to the mad one (”Can you live without mascara?”)
And then I remembered this:
The actual way a SuperModel gets her body into supermodel shape, as demonstrated by Aussie Super, Abbey [...]

Here’s the indestructible (age shall not wither her, toxic boyfriends and scandal shall not destroy her etc etc) Kate Moss, on the cover of Photo Magazine.
Flashing her see-through knickers.
Upskirting herself.
It’s a giant “Fuck You,” of course.
Pure Kate.

Doesn’t he scrub up ….strangely?
There’s the small issue about the junction between his neck and head and his signature [...]

Yes, I know. These images are not very wonderful, but I love her, so I posted them.

The high end of the fashion industry is not always the only villain when [...]

These images, from Jodi Beiber’s “Real Beauty” series have been around for a while.
But I haven’t posted them.
Today, as I opened another email congratulating the COSMO team on our September fashion story, “Sexy Showstoppers,” I remembered them and wondered whether, because it is clear that we all love seeing women of different shapes and sizes [...]

This ad (covered before on HV, here) has been banned in Venice.
Er. Um. Etc.
For what reason?
Could it be that:
1) The Mayor of Venice, Georgio Orsoni, believes that it is cruel to keep adorable little lion cubs in captivity and that the ad promotes the use of wild animals as high-end accessories?
2) The Mayor of Venice [...]

I would post the 24 second video of her innovative dance moves, but I am clueless and don’t know how to download Vimeo. Sorry. If you’re keen to see it, go here.
Via Fashionista.
