^some images of the campaign are already out, unfortunately they're all just solo shots of Katie Holmes...I think they decided to exclude models after all. Sad.

I love that her showcard is as reflective of her personality as the webcam shot for Pony Ryder or whatever...she's a star.

A Quick Post-Haute Couture Chit Chat with Model Myf Shepherd

By Julia Frakes

After a stunning New York debut this past summer at the exclusive Prada resort show, Myf Shepherd went on to gain "top-ten newcomer" status on both style.com and models.com subsequent to walking for the illustrious likes of Marc Jacobs, Balenciaga, Chanel, Nina Ricci, Miu Miu, Jeremy Scott, Fendi, Gucci and Jil Sander during the Prêt-à-Porter shows. Back in the city after her first dose of modeling Haute Couture last week, I sat down with 17-year-old Australian sensation (and current face of Miu Miu and Superfine) to reflect on her recent couture work in Paris and share with us some of her newfound haunts around Gotham.
How do the more extensive couture fittings vary from their standard ready-to-wear counterparts?
The ones that I did were, for the most part, actually really well organized. I think that as even more thought and handiwork has gone into creating each piece, they already know exactly which girl they want for each dress.
Do you personally have a specific "couture walk" on the runway? Or do you maintain the same for both ready-to-wear and couture?
In fact I didn't realize until I had arrived at Dior (my first couture show) that the walk was supposed to be different. I walked my standard Dior-esque strut and they looked at me as though I was crazy and said: "SLOW DOWN! This is couture!"
Any amusing couture week stories from this past week in Paris?
My mum thought it was hilarious when I told her about my sore tongue that I endured from eating too many figs at Chanel. She said she had no sympathy for someone who indulged enough to eat that many figs!
HERE ARE MYF'S PICKS WHEN IT COMES TO...
Art: I'm an adamant supporter of street art, so I loved the massive Banksy rats while they lasted and his animal rights animatronics in West Village. There are also great stencils and murals all over downtown.
Place to be inspired: To be completely honest... I always feel inspired when I ride the subway. There are so many interesting people; Union Square Station always has great buskers and there often is really interesting graffiti.
Part of town: East & West Villages and Williamsburg (luckily all on the L line)!
Restaurant: Wild Ginger in SoHo. Be sure to try the satay seitan skewers. Although there are so many great restaurants around the city that I'm looking forward to trying.
Desert: Lula's Sweet Apothecary in the East Village. Ohmywow! I'd like to go there now, please!
Sandwich: The sesame "chicken" wrap from 'sNice. It is to die for.
Music: The Delacorte Theatre in Central Park; I know it's not technically music, but they did do a production of Hair!
Coffee: Abraço in the East Village on account of the fact that they make "flat whites" (it's an Australian thing).
Dress: Beacon's Closet in Williamsburg has fabulous old costume dresses; they have something from every era and for every possible type of theme party.
Accessory: Your best accessory is a smile! I actually only have two accessories that I wear routinely -- my dad's old watch and a bat-girl necklace.
Fragrance: I don't really wear fragrances... I prefer to smell like my natural self. Naturally, I smell like roses though!
Shoes: I harbour an intense dislike of shoe shopping.

Pins and Needles | Behind the Paris Couture

By Alix Browne

Associated Press

The designers at Valentino presented a collection worthy of a standing ovation from Valentino himself.
This season, The New York Times Magazine worked behind the scenes at the Paris Haute Couture with the photographer Ellen von Unwerth. We traveled from show to show with a mini-studio — a seamless backdrop and a couple of lights — to create quick and dirty tableaux vivants amid the chaos of the backstage. Look for von Unwerth’s photos in the Sunday Magazine in the weeks to come. In the meantime, here’s how it all went down.

Dior

The three-day week started out at Dior, in a tent pitched in the gardens at the Musée Rodin (where Tom Ford used to stage his collections for Yves Saint Laurent). The collection, we were informed, was inspired in part by Dutch portraiture and also by a visit to the Dior archive where John Galliano had been so struck by the construction of some of the dresses he saw that he decided to “turn them inside out.” All was surprisingly calm backstage. As the models had their hair laced into corset-like up dos, the voluminous dresses trickled in from the atelier one by one — each more enormous and more elaborate than the next. (They are heavy, too. When one poor woman tripped through our makeshift studio, the dress she was carrying landed right on me. I still have a huge yellow bruise.) Pat McGrath’s makeup was more subdued this year — some seasons you can hardly tell one model from the next under all the glitter and false eyelashes — but as the show was about to begin, calm gave way to chaos. “I’m not Olga, I’m Myf!” a model, apparently named Myf and not Olga, exclaimed after being scolded for not getting into her proper place in the lineup.

Shes grown on me. I love her face shape.
